Sorry Bill, this is actually directed at Tressie McPhD but it didn't give me the option to reply directly to her. Regarding the de-legitimization of black hair in the workplace-sadly that is a stigma that is reinforced within the AA community. I've worked in several states in the union, from the Pacific Northwest to a very rural town in upstate NY now. All while having natural hair. The only individuals who ever questioned Read More...

Nope. While it's more difficult for the US Congress to pass laws without the cooperation of the US President, it is both possible and has been done. One example of this is the War Powers Resolution of 1973 that was passed despite a presidential veto, and, coincidentally enough, this is the very War Powers Resolution of 1973 that Obama flouted when he trampled all over Article 1, Section 8 of the US Constitution when he Read More...

Excessive emotions are a foul in the work place. Please hear me...emotions are OK but excessive emotions are a foul. When you lose control of your emotions (yelling, unprofessional language, crying, fighting, etc...), you are in effect, attempting to manipulate your co-workers with your emotions. It is no different than trying to manipulate with sexuality. It is inappropriate workplace behavior. Disagreements, anger, happiness, Read More...

Maybe Governor Rendell is saying that the 2008 election was the voters acting irrationally. While the 2010 election was just the voters, after 2 years of calm reflection and 4 years of Democratic control of Congress, acting in a more calm manor and not in the heat of the 2008 panic that required McCain how to calm nerves rush back to Washington to save the day and Paulson to propose sweeping powers for himself to save the Read More...

Absolutely. One of the hard lessons of life is that well behaved women rarely make history looking for boyfriends and husbands don't want equality, they want advantage. That said, women have been ambitious throughout history, but also throughout history much better at gender public relations. This is possible because in America, women keep their corruption to themselves. They go silent, disappear from public record, and Read More...

With all due respect Mr. Gay, are you out of your mind? May I ask, what are you smoking? You have to be kidding me. The Lions and Bills in the Super Bowl? It would make for a good fantasy or bedtime story for some little kids, but really now, you can't be serious. I have been a fan of the Lion's for the last 50 years, and I can guarantee you that all this hype and praise that everyone seems to be giving the Lions are from Read More...

So, Mr business function owner, can you explain to me how your decisions to hire people or not are based on your personal wealth and not on whether you actually need employees to fill a function. What, do you pay people to just sit around all day even though you don't need them? Can you also explain to me how a tax increase will make gas prices and grocery bills go up, I was under the impression that the prices of those Read More...

I am not sure what you mean by more government but since less government would have put us right in the same place, how about the safeguards in the way of regulations and standards actually be enforced? If Mineral Management had been doing its job, this might not have happened. The fact that nothing was done when it was discovered during the Bush years that MMS staff/management and the oil industry were in bed (literally) Read More...

No Lara dear it doesn't, the people who were foolish with their money LOST IT. They didn't do their homework, they didn't provide oversight, and they find lost money their investment dollars. That is the way captialism operates. Those who are thoughtful, work hard, have insight and business sense prosper if they manage to make a profit. Capitalism doesn't mean everyone who tries wins. That's la-la-land. The problem is the Read More...

Actually, I hope he does get reelected. Again...the strategic vision. What's worse? 1) Obama in his second...and final...term with a republican controled house and senate OR 2) Obama defeated in tax calculator 2012 but free to run again sometime in the future...sometime when the Dems might control both houses as they have historically done more often than not (Barely, I'll admit). I'm not so sure I would trade a 2012 Republican Read More...
