It's his blatant hypocracy I take issue with. He CLEARLY pointed out things Bush did that he felt were not within his power to do, then he did the EXACT same thing! Right or wrong, it's hypocritical...
    Getting a Buddhist to help you look for something then he steps in the place the wasps are and you leave... while initially peaceful, the Buddhist is in effect under direct attack and while lured into this situation is in the situation and might understandably react to the imminent danger. You, however went looking for it and didn' mid others getting in trouble for a pouty, spoiled brat hissy-fit you had because you got stung and left alone.

    Now if the Buddhist in this story leaves the wasps are likely to follow, harass while the Buddhist is departing and cause great harm. It is reasonable that the Buddhist being a person stays with the mess he was essentially lead into and deal with the imminent and also now impending danger.

    If you get punched in the face by a guy or a gang and they leave after a few hits to you there isno imminent danger. Stopping the punches during getting punched is more something. They didn't keep it up. They didn't go after any other target than to hit you some in the face. You didn't defend and they were done with those strikes. That you rile the masses with convincing words putting into jeopardy lives and other resources for reasons not necessarily disclosed...they were not coming back after you anytime soon. They just went after something to brag about amongst themselves and boost their status in the group or some such...

    Unless you had the altercation arranged as an excuse to go where you normally couldn't and unbeknownst to your collaborators you were going to take their stuff or have it taken blahh blahh, blahh. But imminent~ danger you were not there.

    The situations were a similar result from different places/situations thereby here,n hypocracy-lacking.

    Latinos!

    If they are here, then they are Americans. Besides, considering a huge chunk of our country was won by hook or crook from Mexico, this shouldn't be terribly surprising.

    The whole race thing confuses me, probably because I've spent over a decade in a very diverse business. I've been a minority at my last few assignments.

    i believe it is important for everyone to live as an ethnic minority at some point in their life, preferably while they are young.
    For whoso comes amongst many shall one day find that no one man is by so far the mightiest of all.

    True, catholic latinos will be the majority of the USA come 2050.

    Race confuses you? lol I think the whole idea of it is confusing.

    Lately I was thinking about Libya, and why not, it's topical, but there was a statement about "The Libyan People" in some clip and I thought to myself if ever there were people that were defined as a people by borders instead of race, it is Arabs.

    The Libyan people are the same people as the Egyptians, Tunisians, Saudis, Jordanians, Lebanese and virtually all other Arabs in the region. There separation is religious, but ethnically, all Arabs are Semites more or less. Which is weird, because many Israeli Jews are not Semites and are of Germanic origins or ethnic remnants of the long defunct Kazhar empire which adopted Judaism as it's state religion long ago and far away. This is what a great thing the genome project is and was. Mainly because despite even those ethnic divides it conclusively showed us that there is only one race and that we are all bound by shared genetics and especially that we all shared the same basic genetics.

    So, nations, races and even ethnicity are actually an intellectual constructs that we use to identify ourselves. It is in fact highly superficial and bears far less meaning than the true and actual genetic map of humanity.

    It's not so easy now that you are in the hot seat, is it, Mr. President?
    Thank you. You put it in words better than I did.

    I did. When I was bussed into East Austin in 8th grade, whites were by far the minority there. It was there that I learned firsthand that racism cuts both ways.

    I did when I moved from the white bread west to the multiculti east.

    I am very close to being a minority! Yay!

    I still remember my first day going to work in Toronto.
    I still remember coming home.

    I took a bus, then a subway in.
    On the buses, I swear I was the only white dude on bothe ways and people gave me the stink eye for being on a bus!

    weird.

    this town is messed though in so many ways.
    No unity, a bunch of ghettos, a dubious mayor, crappy infrastructure, get this, the hydro outfit spends money on posters telling you to beware of walking near electrical poles because they might shock you as two dogs have died recently.

    awareness messages override getting the problem fixed! lol Idiots.
    I hated it in TO and moved up north to Markham.

    Much better. Even more of a minority up here, but it's mostly Chinese. So, no offense, but it is not bad living in predominantly Chinese neighbourhoods but I am not to crazy about the prospects of the others. lol racist pr1ck that I seem to have become being a minority and all. hahahaha.

    so in the 8th grade you knew some white people hated everyone different, but you didnt know that some people who have more complexion hate the pale ones??? did you think they just took all the hate and just loved the white man back??? or that people didnt bring their own bullsh1t drama when they immigrate??? you should know these things by the 8th grade...
