AT first I wanted to ask her same thing I asked about the
couple referenced in another thread in both this echo and
debate.  "Want some cheese with your whine?"  AFter
listening to her a little more I wanted to jack slap her up
the side of the head and tell her to sit down and stfu.
sHe just couldn't bring any kind of credibility at all to
the whole thing imho.

Part I found i respect about the man is that his maternal
grandparents, who raised him expected and got a day's work
out of him as well as his schoolwork.  THe man didn't have
an easy childhood.
HIs dislike of affirmative action has always struck me as
ludicrous for just the reasons you cite however.

Regards,
           Richard
