Observations
A few key observations come to mind that need to be re-emphasized regarding the proposed Reynolds High School stadium after having read recent letters in the Journal:
- The stadium will not be built in the middle of Hanes Park, not even in the park, but adjacent to it, nestled into the unsightly hillside on school property between Wiley Middle School and the Reynolds gym.
- Donors to the stadium are choosing to spend their own money above and beyond their tax dollars for an athletic facility beside the Reynolds campus. This is their choice and should not be dictated by others.
- Many students cannot participate in some sports at Reynolds due to lack of transportation. Proximity to the school would alter their chances.
- Some neighbors choose their homes based on proximity to schools, shopping, parks, etc. Convenience and proximity is as important to them as a stadium is to the Reynolds students.
- Athletics is a vital component of the educational process for some students, teaching teamwork, leadership skills, compatibility and time management, and receiving structured guidance and leadership from their respective coaches.
- The Wiley gym should be replaced or repaired by the school system as is done for every other failing facility.
- No one raised objections when Reagan and Atkins high schools added new stadiums to their campuses. Why didn't taxpayers suggest Reagan share field space with West Forsyth or Mount Tabor and Atkins with Carver?
Most of our athletes attend universities and colleges after graduation. Vocational training? Really?

Misleading
In the Aug. 27 letter "Better informed," the writer charges R.J. Reynolds stadium opponents with putting out information that is "misleading or simply untrue." He gives no evidence of these untruths, merely directs readers to the boosters' website to become "better informed" and "truly impressed" with their project.
I have read it. I am truly impressed by the breathtaking number of misleading statements it contains. Here are a few:
That the facility would be designed to integrate well with the surroundings and that "the park vista will not be compromised." Walking the area, one can see whether a fenced-in structure rising in places more than 30 feet, its footprint the size of Kohl's, would compromise views.
That the site is currently "a school bus parking lot" and "outdated school gymnasium," though elsewhere it includes "uneven and unsafe open space" not worthy of being called " 'green space' given its condition." Stadium, field house, press box and roads would take over the Wiley hill and open land extending to the track. Again, walk it. Let's decide for ourselves whether we want to see better maintained park land or more concrete and chain link fences.
That the "Winston-Salem/Forsyth County School Board has pledged their full support toward the efforts of the R.J. Reynolds High School Athletic Booster Club and the Stadium committee's efforts to build a new facility." Members of the school board assure us that they have approved nothing. So much for truth.

Potentate?
The writer of the letter "A vigorous call" (Sept. 4) refers to "our coronated, all-knowing, but unchallenged potentate, President Barack Obama."
Strange. The way I remember it, Obama ran for office against Sen. John McCain in a democratic election. And won.
Well, I guess McCain really was no challenge.

Stretching the truth
The author of the column "Women for Mitt" (Aug. 23) blames President Obama for causing 400,000 women to lose their jobs. Apparently, she stretches the truth a little too thin. If she takes the trouble to talk to those women she would find out that the majority of them are teachers, teacher aides and health care personnel.
It is undisputed that they did not lose their jobs because of President Obama's fiscal policy; rather they lost their jobs because of the fiscal policy of GOP governors and GOP-dominated legislatures.
The governors of Wisconsin, Florida, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Indiana, Virginia and South Carolina, and the GOP-dominated legislature of North Carolina, cut deeply into public education and laid off public-school teachers by the tens of thousands. On the other hand, they gave lavish tax benefits to big businesses, their big donors.
President Obama attempted to reinstall these lost jobs and the jobs of policemen, firefighters and construction workers by proposing the American Jobs Act, which was repeatedly blocked by the Republican-controlled Congress.
President Obama fully understands the situation. That is why he said, "The private sector is doing fine." He compared the employment situation of the public sector and the private sector, and he was slammed by his Republican opponent for saying so.
Place the blame where it rightly belongs, please.

Forgetting God
I'd like to answer the letter writer's question ("A stand on gays," Sept. 5) and say yes, I think some of us do forget God sometimes, but not in the way he implies. I believe we forget God when we vilify others simply because we perceive they are not like us — when we are unkind and uncharitable enough to use words like "abomination" for our fellow human beings who are hurting no one — who are, in fact, being persecuted in word and deed every day, for who and how they love.
The scientific evidence is overwhelming that sexual orientation is not a choice but part of a person's DNA. Therefore, "lifestyle" is not a word that applies here. To condemn a person for being gay, and, even worse, to use such damaging and incendiary language when speaking of him or her, is like calling a man evil because his hair is brown, a woman because her eyes are blue.
But even if one ignores the science and continues to believe that being gay is a decision, it is no more acceptable, kind or Christian to use derogatory and merciless terminology when referring to people who are our brothers and sisters, sons and daughters, neighbors and co-workers.
To honor the god of my understanding, I choose love over hate, compassion over cruelty — even when it comes to those who make similar "stands on gays" — because hatred is a corrosive emotion, more destructive to those who feel it than anyone else.

The Tobacco Tax is NOT a tax on the middle class, it's a tax on tobacco. In fact in 2008 only 18-20% of American adults were smokers.
ReplyDeleteI say raise it again.
DeleteMost were in the middle class too. Precisely the group Obama promised he wouldn't raise taxes on.
DeleteWe can just add that to the list of broken promises by Obama. No big deal.
w-h-a-a-a-a-t ? ? ?
DeleteMost are probably on food stamps, Bucky. They use the stamps to buy food for their asthmatic kids and use their money to buy beer and cigarettes. Most of their money probably earned under the table because they don't want to loose their food stamp eligibility.
DeleteI have tried to employ some of these people. They make sure that lay out of work enough not to loose their food stamps, work under the table and on the side and still have to bum money for cigarettes until payday. If you literally burn your money, you usually don't make it to the middle class today. Things were different when smoking wasn't so frowned upon, but not now.
So which came first, the egg. Chickens are thought to have originated in India and were domesticated from Red Jungle Fowl around 2000 B.C. Fish were producing eggs over 500 million years ago, long before there were any land animals.

350,000 students are missing school for a second day in Chicago because of a teacher union strike. Teachers in Chicago have the highest salaries in the nation. Only 56% of the students graduate from high school.
ReplyDeleteI love unions, don't you? They are causing the economic collapse of cities in California, and havoc across America.
During the auto industry bail-out, Obama support the governmental funding of union pensions and jobs, while non-union auto industry people lost their jobs.
I'm sure glad Obama gets campaign money from those bums, and supports them.
If it weren't for the liberal media employing many, many, newspapers, and TV channels and stations to cover-up these significant issues, Romney would be far ahead.
Obama is like our national Bev. Perdue. Unfortunately for the nation, it looks like he has a chance to get reelected, unlike Perdue.
The average teacher pay in Chicago is $76,000. The Average teacher pay in Nassau/Suffolk County,Ny is $83,560.
DeleteCorrection: The average elementary school teacher in Nassau and Suffolk counties earned $90,560, while middle school teachers earned $90,650 and high school teachers earned slightly less on average at $88,390.
Deletehttp://libn.com/2012/06/13/long-island-teachers-highest-paid-in-new-york/
Highest was used in a generic term Bob. Chicago is one of the highest paid educational districts in the country.
DeleteBut that doesn't stop those union bums.
The teachers were offered a 16% salary increase over the next four years. But that wasn't good enough. They want to extort more health care benefits/pension benefits from the district.
Obama wants more of these union bums in his 'new' America too.
DeleteAre we going really going 'forward'?
I don't think so.
I see so it went from " Teachers in Chicago have the highest salaries in the nation," to "one of the highest paid educational districts in the country." Just doin' my best to keep you straight.
DeleteChicago is not in the top five cities in pay for pre-school, kindergarten, elementary or middle school teachers. Chicago is 4th in the nation in pay for high school teachers.
DeleteThe high school graduation rate in Chicago in 2012 was 60.6%.
DeleteThe rate for the state of NC is 66.1%. For the South, 55.9%
Where did you get those figures from? CNN. I got mine from FoxNews, so I guess they're both about as accurate as the other.
DeleteIt really doesn't matter. Unions create liberal leeches and bums. That's the bottom line.
DeleteI read it in the Chicago Sun-Times.
DeleteAnything coming out of Chicago is questionable. It's Obamaland, remember?
DeleteEverytime I see Rahm, I think of Antony Weiner. I keep thinking Rahm is going to pull his package out on stage.
DeleteYou seem to think about Anthony Weiner a lot these days. HeHe
DeleteI don't get my numbers from any news organization. Mine come from professional databases, which is why mine are always correct and Dunce's are always wrong.
DeleteOf course, when Dunce cannot find any numbers to copy and paste from FoxLies or his other usual crackpot sources, he simply makes them up, as in thousands, or millions, depending on the day, of illegal aliens voting in US elections. And he was right...they did catch that Canadian guy in Florida.
He thinks about, and looks online at, wieners every day.
DeleteI'll bet he gets really excited thinking about Paul Ryan driving the Wienermobile.

_____
You said some good things. However, the above sentence is not one of them.
There is such a thing as the gay lifestyle. Just like there is a heterosexual lifestyle. Have you ever noticed how heterosexuals dress in particular manner, and act in a particular manner, so do gays. These characteristics just don't apply to dress code, but behavior as well.
Liberal Democrats have become the anti-God party, and they are spreading their bigotry around. Don't be afraid of these overbearing, hateful bums. Stand tall is my advice.
Bullshit. I'm 6'2". Is that tall enough and I wear overalls. You have taken over as the Generalissimo of Generalizations.
Delete'Stand Tall' is a phrase used to say 'don't be afraid of your stance on an issue', Bob. Not in the literal sense.
DeleteYou're off to a bad start this morning Bob.
How does Dr. Joseph Ferrel, secretary of the faculty at UNC, dress. How does Thomas S. Kenan, III who serves as President, The Westfield Company, Durham, NC, Vice Chairman of Flagler System Inc., Chairman of Kenan Transport Co., since July 1996 and its Director since 1964, Trustee, The Duke Endowment, Charlotte, NC; Trustee, The William R. Kenan Jr. Charitable Trust, Chapel Hill, NC; Director, Flagler System, Palm Beach, FL., dress. How about Tom Gray here in Winston-Salem?
DeleteEveryday I awaken starts a good day.
DeleteYou said Gay IS a lifestyle. That's just non-sense and you know it.
DeleteYes, I dress in a particular manner. I put one leg at a time into my overalls.
DeleteI prefer (it's genetic) to hold my overalls out in front of me and jump into them both legs at a time.
DeleteImpresses the dickens out of the ladies.
The surest method to tell a male from a female chromosome is to pull down their genes.
DeleteMost gay men I know dress 'better' than most heterosexuals.
DeleteThere are always exceptions, like the ones that hang out in bathrooms. And there are a ton of those. But your everyday, business gay, dresses well.
It's not how they look, it's how they deal with everyday matters that causes the conflicts in the work place.
DeleteFor example, they wear their feelings on their sleeves; they express their political views in the workplace (routinely); they give preferential treatment to people that pander to minorities; they retaliate against heterosexuals that are not receptive to gay issues and rights; they are often violent in both the workplace and in their personal life; they use drugs at a higher level of frequency than heterosexuals; and last but not least they are more often than their counterparts to be pedophiles.
Did I leave anything out Bob?
The Truth.
DeleteGood one Bob. You're learning.
DeleteThose are sociological observations Bob, not absolutes. I know how you like all exclusive facts.
DeleteLike Dunce knows what goes on in "the workplace". I don't think his parent's basement is the normal workplace.
Deletesociological observations by whom. One of my clients and mentors as well, Dr. Edward Tiryakian, Professor Emeritus in Sociology-Psychology, Duke University. http://sociology.duke.edu/people?Gurl=%2Faas%2FSociology&Uil=durkhm&subpage=profile
DeleteBob, he has published quite a bit. If you could direct me to one particular publication that addresses homosexual deviancy, I'll be glad to take a look at it, and give my own commments concerning the veracity of his work.
DeleteI don't think he bothers with minutiae.
DeleteYou brought him up Bob.
Deletehttp://sociology.duke.edu/people?subpage=publications&Gurl=%2Faas%2FSociology&Uil=durkhm
Deleteand to whose sociological observations were you referring?
DeleteBob, I've already looked at that page. I'm way ahead of you, as usual. Can you be more specific?
DeleteWhat's more specific than a complete list of publications? And you? You haven't even been vague, much less specific. I'll bet you took Dr. Britton's Sociology course. :) According to one of his students, he talked about sex all the time.
DeleteYou were the one that actually made the claim: "For example, they wear their feelings on their sleeves; they express their political views in the workplace (routinely); they give preferential treatment to people that pander to minorities; they retaliate against heterosexuals that are not receptive to gay issues and rights; they are often violent in both the workplace and in their personal life; they use drugs at a higher level of frequency than heterosexuals; and last but not least they are more often than their counterparts to be pedophiles." And I was asking whose study that was you were referring to. My response concerning Dr. Teryakian was just to let you know I am familiar with sociological observances. As a client, we mainly discussed exercise, nutrition, and UNC vs Duke basketball. We did discuss gay athletes occasionally. So whose sociological observances were you referring to? Your own? Are you a sociologist? Hmm? :)
DeleteBob, I pulled you out of the psychological hole you were in. Don't regress on me.
DeleteI'm not Dr. Britton.
"There is such a thing as the gay lifestyle. Just like there is a heterosexual lifestyle."
DeleteSo Bucky, when did you choose the heterosexual lifestyle?
no wonder Mitt supports the Pre-existing mandate of Obamacare, yes a mandate to insurance companies. Mitt has a pre-existing condition > "I've changed my mind."
ReplyDeleteMitty's mind is a merry-go-round. "Let's see, today I believe...no, that was last week..."
DeleteRound and round and round she goes,
Where she stops, nobody knows.
That's why Romney spends so much time in Vegas. He uses the Roulette wheel to determine his daily policy stances.
DeleteAt least Romney has some policies that will probably work. We've seen what Obama has over the last four years, and we know they don't.
DeleteGovernment by probability, sound very Vegas to me. Lets see, "Since 1961, for 52 years now, the Republicans have held the White House 28 years, the Democrats 24," Clinton said. "In those 52 years, our private economy has produced 66 million private-sector jobs. So what's the job score? Republicans 24 million, Democrats 42."
DeleteClinton's math is a bit off, but not substantially.
According to Bureau of Labor Statistics figures examined by CNN, he understated the net number of private jobs created under Democratic administrations and overstated the number of jobs created in GOP eras. But the ratio is basically correct: A net increase of 44.7 million jobs created during the Kennedy, Johnson, Carter, Clinton and Obama administrations, compared to a 23.3 million figure during the Nixon, Ford, Reagan and both Bush administrations.
Clinton is like Rush, he actually 'believes' Obama created 4.5 million jobs.
DeleteHee Hee...it must be nice to be ignorant' You don't have a care in the world. Right Rush?

LTE 3: That's how I remember it also.
LTE 4: Those who have warned that austerity is on the way seem to have missed the fact that austerity is already here at the state and local level which is why the number of public employees being layed off matches the number of private jobs being added. The private sector is growing, but it is still not strong enough to absorb the govt. job losses, so the UR remains unchanged.
LTE 5: Theological arguments with which I am in full agreement. Worry about your own shortcomings before trying to tell others how to live their lives much less whom to love.

DeleteHeard last night that Steve Wozniak will be delivering the commencement speech at High Point University. From what I've read about him, this is quite a surprise. Woz seems like someone who is as likely to get up before thousands and give a speech as...well, me. Like me, he admits to being far more comfortable with computers than people.
ReplyDeleteOne other observation:
ReplyDeleteRomney recently said that if elected, Bernanke would not be retained as Fed Chairman. While the influence of the POTUS on the economy is often overstated, there's no doubt of the power the Fed chairman exerts over the economy. In a tight election where the economy is by far the main issue, why would you threaten the job of the one person who argubly has the greatest opportunity to swing the election by his decisions regarding the economy? The Fed is supposed to be non-partisan, but the chairman is still human and most likely will make decisions that will increase his ability to keep his job in the long run.
ReplyDeleteDunce is on a roll today…may be approaching a record number of dumb statements and outright lies. Examples:
Highest was used in a generic term.
Generic is the wrong word. Also should be “as” not “in”.
I felt like Fawn Hall, with a shredder, with your ridiculous, liberal pontifications.
In response to having his facts checked and found wanting…some facts are “liberal”, some are not, right?
There is such a thing as the gay lifestyle. Just like there is a heterosexual lifestyle. Have you ever noticed how heterosexuals dress in particular manner, and act in a particular manner, so do gays. These characteristics just don't apply to dress code, but behavior as well.
Differences Between Heterosexuals & Homosexuals
Stand Tall' is a phrase used to say 'don't be afraid of your stance on an issue', Bob. Not in the literal sense.
A lesson from the master of language.
For example, they wear their feelings on their sleeves; they express their political views in the workplace (routinely); they give preferential treatment to people that pander to minorities; they retaliate against heterosexuals that are not receptive to gay issues and rights; they are often violent in both the workplace and in their personal life; they use drugs at a higher level of frequency than heterosexuals; and last but not least they are more often than their counterparts to be pedophiles.
Those are sociological observations Bob, not absolutes.
The great socio-linguist speaks
At least Romney has some policies that will probably work.
Weak= “some” “probably”. We would love to hear an exposition on these policies, since no one has heard them but Romney. His two campaign promises so far are to repeal ACA and create a bunch of jobs. The first he cannot do and the second he will not tell us how he is going to do it.
Romney can give 'waivers' to all states through an executive order concerning the ACA, thus effectively making Obamacare meaningless.
DeleteJobs will be created by lowering taxes on small businesses, that's an easy one. Of course, it wasn't easy for the Taxmeister Obama to figure out though.
Ronald Reagan was behind in the polls to Carter at the same point in that contest, and guess what happen? It ain't over til it's over.
Rush, if you'd put some meaningful sentences down on paper in this forum, maybe you'd be taken more seriously.
DeleteSomehow in your pitiful, little, liberal brain, you think if you rant on and on about everything under the sun, people will be impressed, and take your nonsensical babble to heart.
That simply isn't the case.
Hey Fawn! Oil up the shredder. I've got some more Rushmush to shred.
DeleteAs always, the Dunce is badly misinformed…understandable considering the low level sources that he consults.
ReplyDeleteThe only waivers available to states require that the state come up with its own plan that will guarantee the same quality of coverage as provided by the federal law. Fat chance of that happening.
Taxes on small business (we who own them know) are already about as low as they can go. And since the Great Reagan administration, we have known that lowering taxes has no positive effect on jobs or the economy.
Dunce’s “brain” is running on “low test” fuel.

And it'll get worse if Obama is reelected. It's all coming back, shades of the Carter years. Gas prices through the roof, taxes killing the economy, no jobs, salaries down, home values down.......
But some people don't want to admit it. They're in liberal la la land.
At least no embassy staff were hurt, and the Egyptian Army, which likes having spare parts for its US tanks, moved in and shooed the savages off.
DeleteThere is also a report that savages set fire to the US consulate in Benghazi. Apparently, they and the Egyptian barbarians are upset over a film that is unflattering to Islam, so they attack us on 09/11. I hope our military is on alert for rescue missions.
DeleteI see that this is the handiwork of that fool Terry Jones. Too bad we cannot take the Egypt savages, the Libya savages and the Florida savages, put them down on a desert island somewhere and let them have at each other.
DeleteI also see that the Little Chicken has wet his panties: "It's all coming back, shades of the Carter years. Gas prices through the roof, taxes killing the economy, no jobs, salaries down, home values down......."
DeleteGas prices are beyond the control of the US government; middle class income has been falling steadily ever since the Great Reagan and his one percenters began their war on the middle class 31 years ago; home values are up; jobs are up and taxes are the lowest in modern American history.

ReplyDelete"On Monday's broadcast of (Pat) Robertson's television show "The 700 Club," he answered a question from a viewer named Michael about how to repair his marriage to a woman who "has no respect for me as the head of the house."
Robertson's response: "Well, you could become a Muslim and you could beat her."
Bizarrely, this comment elicited laughter from Robertson's co-host, Terry Meeuwsen (who is a woman).
He also called the woman a "rebellious child" who doesn't want to "submit to any authority." However, since the Scripture doesn't allow for divorce, Robertson urged the husband to "move to Saudi Arabia," where, ostensibly, beating the woman would be permissible."
And if you're tempted to write off Robertson as just a fringe character, know this: He spent last weekend hanging out with Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, NBC News reported.

Before I started school, my parents made sure that I had mastered the basics: the alphabet; numbers; telling time; and how to read a calendar.

If he had bothered to look at the dateline on that story, which is, for christ's sake, in the url, he might have noticed, "might" being an awfully big word here, that he was attempting to read a story from 2011, over a year ago.

DeleteAnother thing that my parents and teachers emphasized was that before you open your mouth it is a good thing to have some idea what you are going to be talking about.
DeleteA few days ago, Little Chicken Dunce disregarded that maxim and began blabbering about increased insurance costs for college students.
He received a stern lecture from those in the know about comparing apples, the new real insurance policies for college students, to oranges, the old phony insurance policies for college students.
Apparently he was absent from lecture that day, most likely peeping down at the boys' bathroom, or the lecture simply went right over his poor little head, because now he's back on the same subject.
My 4th grade teacher once said "O.T., will you ever learn when to keep your mouth shut?"
