So are you saying the state of Mississippi didn't try to remove the practice from the state? Is that your position?
-
Facts? Really? When you're intentionally misrepresenting what the state of Mississippi did and everyone know what they did and why they did it? Who is the on leaving out facts and misleading people?
-
Apparently the Times won't link. So let me Google that for you. And that is not what the state of Mississippi did. It was much more than that. Don't be disingenuous when you know the intent since they already tried it before. My link And there is no way you had time to read the Economist article.

Tell that "smidgen of room left in the ruling [for] counseling" to Mississippi. Yes, the truth detector would be spinning hard on your posts.

The state actions show otherwise.
-
You are exactly right. The states are circumventing the ruling with little fanfare and slowly removing our rights. This is what the Extremists want to do on a national level. My link

I will most likely listen to the NPR broadcast on satellite radio.

I ignored the spelling maestro and shouldn't have done that. -

Not a back handed compliment at all. It was a compliment outright. The point of the poster was spot on and that is what the research shows does tend to happen over time. And, yes, me spell maestro was ignored when I should have typed metaled instead of mettaled. -

You may not have taken a mettaled road to get there, the point you made is spot on. -
Amendment 1 re: Decisions about Charter Schools

Parents already have a choice. There is School Choice for public schools and there are private schools. Charter Schools are about corporations getting to the tax money under the guise of choice. -
The latest numbers say the private sector is growing jobs and the government jobs are decreasing. The economy is slowly growing its way out of the mess. My link

Statewide the make up is less than 10% minority. Fulton County is not the norm for racial make up. That is not a fair comparison. Economics and parental involvement. The students in Charter Schools have educated parents, with higher incomes and who stay involved. Comparing those student scores to public schools is comparing apples to oranges. It is not the same. -

There was a wonderful audio story on this last week, My link Your assertion that Charter Schools perform better is simply not true. Not true at all. The research is that Charter Schools do not perform better than public schools. The difference is that the Charter Schools cull out the students with less parental involvement. The parents' education and economics determine student achievement, whether in public, private or Charter Schools. In Georgia, less than 10% of Charter School students are minority and on the low end of the economic strata and that is what determines success. I believe -
First, you're taking your talking point from News Max, a decidedly partisan site that strongly favors the Far Right Wing. So your point about the Pew study is already skewed. Second, the Pew study says much more than that the one point the News Max piece is trying to convey. You may want to actually read the Pew link because you will find it to be different than the News Max talking point.

I do believe this organisation does wonderfully well in handling such problems such as speak.

HOAs are imperative to keeping the value of dwellings at optimum levels and undesirable people and problems at a minimum.

Don't know who is the current owner but I do believe you are speaking of what the natives call Mt Tabor and Dragstrip Road. The name of the boulevard was changed when East Paulding secondary school was constructed and the consensus was that giving an address to a place of learning as "Dragstrip Road" seemed t rather cheeky and made the citizenry appear rather backwards. Thus the boulevard endured a name name change to East Paulding Drive. I do believe the dragstrip is the entity you referenced, no?

I can't believe that I'm the subject instead of the content of the posts. More tin foil hats are in order.

It's the phone, nothing more. Let's not make more out of it than there really is.

You realise that you will be labeled when giving factual information that doesn't support their agenda, righrm

You lost me at "irregardless" as it is non-standard.

I've said all along I'm not a fan of Obama. While I do agree with you on the Supreme Court nominee likelihood, I'm talking about the economy itself. Fact is, it will not matter one iota which one gets elected as far as the economy is concerned. Both will do the same thing, e.g., raise some taxes and cut some spending. And the economy will continue to grow at a modest pace, with snags here and there, and in 4 years the US economy will be in much better shape. The point I'm looking at is how America feels, not what will happen. The majority do want a change. They want the Reagenesque Cowboy
