"When it gives women the opportunity to compete for the same job a man has."


so lets see here, she supported affirmative action in the dallas fire department which " revised minimum height, weight and vision requirements". so because of liberals like yourself that support affirmative action-- people that need to be rescued in a life threatening situation might die.

"Miers' time on Dallas City Council provides some insight"
Miers was one of 10 Dallas council members to unanimously approve a 1989 agenda item that revised minimum height, weight and vision requirements for Dallas firefighters to facilitate "promotion of certain ranks in the Fire Department," particularly women.

The agenda item's title: "Implementation of Fire Department Affirmative Action Plan."
