C'mon you two...this is like watching paint dry! 

:laughpound

 

[Scarlet]

got to get the cult fired up

And yet @Archy1221

[RedDenver]

@RedDenver never lets facts get in the way of his narrative about what I post.  

 

[Archy1221]

Yes, I would classify your posts as hypocritical too.  Was just trying to be a little nice

Is this some passive-aggressive way of saying you're rubber and I'm glue?

No, I would just come out and say that if I wanted.

I mean OAN is bats#!t, but based on who the GOP is courting

 and their recent actions they seem to be on the same page.

Ahh...so, it's a temporary situation.

It will be interesting to see how long it will take before Title 9 issues start being questioned.  Let's say the men's basketball team is offered a bunch of offers so they are all making $50,000 per year and nobody is offering the women's team.  How long before equal pay issues start being talked about?

Soon- America is no longer the land of equal opportunity. Certain segments of our society want guaranteed equal results (equity) with no regard for inputs.

America is no longer the land of equal opportunity. 

When was America ever the land of equal opportunity? Can you give me a specific year or decade?

 

[Enhance]

To my recollection, America has always been the land of opportunity... not the land of equal opportunity. I think that's an important distinction. Maybe it was just a mistype.

Google seems to return results for people saying both, but I've rarely heard the term 'equal' shoved in there. If it had been, it'd be a lot like football teams who 'strive for perfection.' It's an impossible task, but you can still aim for it.

Man...remember when this topic was @teachercdtalking about how hot the moms at Target are?

Memories.
