Truth is often a painful thing. However, celebrate diversity! (that’s my attempt at wry humor)

Derbyshire has also written two excellent books on mathematics. "Unknown Quantity" and "Prime Obsession."

An example of why the left will ultimately win if things don’t change. They play for keeps, and we worry about what they think of us.

I do argue with one point.
(10g) Before voting for a black politician, scrutinize his/her character much more carefully than you would a white.
My rule would be - Assume all politicians are crooked, no matter their skin color. Scrutinize them carefully before ever trusting them.

In all the entire history of the English language, this is one of the masterworks that can stand alongside of even Shakespeare!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I loved it then, and I love it now.
To: BenLurkin
We have, and it is just as true, magnificent, perfect, beautiful, and timeless then as it is now.
To: Secret Agent Man

We have seen this racist rant before.It's obviously not a rant.
And it's not racist. It's racial.

You are correct, and 10 years ago, it would have, unfortunately, gotten him banned from FR.
To: Third Person
Point #12 is spot on, in my experience.

You remember the good old days when FR was more liberal? Maybe you should brush up on its history.
