Gnslngr - friendly advice (you're free to take or leave): before you hit the send, pause for a moment and ask if readers might take something differently than you intend.
First, you admit to name calling because "he never - never posts a screed..."
Then you say that there is "little, if any, "debate" on UHH. A debate would imply that one side or the other can be persuaded." Are you proclaiming your mind is closed to all debate?

Just sayin...it can be read that way.

Advice, when intelligent and sensible, is always welcome. But what you have written is neither. I never admitted to name calling. I specifically denied it as it was factual and not hyperbolic. A word of advice to you: read what you comment on.
As for your other point, well... you clearly have a limited understanding of commentary. I shall refrain from further factual comment lest you believe it to be "name calling".
Affirmative action was a brain fart like socialism - there was some good for some people and some bad for others.The one thing I feel it has done is show the folly of the program. I equate this as to be standing in line for your meal and having others cut in line in front of you - you have earned your place in line - they have not.

There is little, if any, "debate" on UHH. A debate would imply that one side or the other can be persuaded. That is, unfortunately, simply not true on UHH, nor in the America we currently live in.
Oh so true, sad, but look to Washington DC and your point is so well taken!
If you are going to plagiarise articles you should at least acknowledge where you have sourced it from. Ok, it it is probably a syndicated article but a quick google search finds it here for example:
Why don't you demonstrate some skill and write something original instead of hiding behind other authors and failing to acknowledge them?
I do not plagiarize, ever. And I provide the source when possible and when convenient. Your accusation of plagiarizing is idiotic, false, and defamatory.
LA Shooter - I'm unwatching this one after making one more comment. A simple "(Paul Greenberg)" at the end of your original post would have prevented this really unnecessary discussion about intelligence and thievery.
I like Greenberg's argument here, although he is careful about making too bold a prediction.
Why must liberals, when called out on an issue that is clearly wrong, jump into debate mode instead of calling it what it is. In this case it is discrimination. It is wrong, but instead of doing something to remove it they call a debate. Debates are for discussing issues that are not illegal or immoral.

LAS. You did not acknowledge the original author of the article when you published this on Chit-Chat. As such you took credit for work that was not actually yours. In the academic world that is stealing.The accusation of you being a plagiarist still stands. The original article was written by Paul Greenberg, Apr 26, 2014 You appropriated his work and published it as your own work the same day. The evidence is here: http://townhall.com/columnists/paulgreenberg/2014/04/26/the-coming-end-of-affirmative-action-n1829493/page/full
