Diversity is defined as 1.) difference; 2.)variety. Unity is defined as 1.) a being united, oneness, 2.) a single, seperate thing; 3.) harmony; agreement, 4.) a complex that is a union of harmony; agreement. (Webster's New World Dictionary).

My favorite response to diversity hawks is:

"So, you say we need more minorities to have more diversity? Can you tell me how minorities are inherently different from whites? Do they eat different foods, listen to different music, are they better athletes? What is different about them?"

If your point is that the court decisions do not (should not) make law, I agree with you. If your point is that men cannot make laws, we clearly have a different definition of the word.

Are statutes not laws? Is a new statute not a new law? How did we "discover" the 20 MPH speed limit in a school zone?

Statutes are not laws. They are regulations.

It was against the law to murder someone, even before the Ten Commandments.

And to believe in the "law", and the "Law to the letter", is exactly what the defendents tried to do at the Nuremburg trials.

Read Les Miserables.

Why is everyone so afraid of diversity? My definition of diversity is the acceptance of all people from various backgrounds as equals. Nothing wrong with that is there?

I don't think we need more of anything to be diverse. We just need to be able to accept that everyone has a unique history and origin and that's okay. That's my own personal definition, apparently.

Is Black law different?

Is female law different? Is gay law different?

Nobody even thinks about these things anymore.

Liberal law is different. They will moan and whine no matter who is nominated if the candidate is not a flaming lib.

Pubbies whine too, just not near as much or as loud.

Milwaukee Journal Sentinel: Court Justice Clarence Thomas should have an "asterisk" next to his name with regard to his race because he "does not represent the views of mainstream black America."

Maybe the Black community will start to realize what the left really thinks about them.

As I've said in the past, some of the most bigoted people I've ever met were liberals.....

And that is the great tragedy of the movement.

The black community seems to hang on every word of the Sharptons, Jacksons, and every other race pimp of the world.


Constantly being told about what they CAN'T DO. The implication being that they are somehow inferior.

They need to have leaders who will tell them what they CAN DO, not what they can't.

The entire ethnic movement in this country is made up of a bunch of bloodsuckers.

There is a difference between "Black" and "black". Clarence Thomas isn't "Black" enough while clinton is.

"How can differences unite us?
E Pluribus Unim."

"From the many, one." That doesn't say "From the diverse many, one." We understand that among the many, there is naturally some diversity, but the Lib's idea of diversity is an artificial, contrived one. They also opperate under the false belief that by achieving this artificial "diversity" of theirs, that they then have achieved excellence (as if diversity in and of itself automatically equals excellence). You can have diversity and yet not have quality or excellence (prisons could be an example - diversity of inmates, not much excellence).

Thanks. I will use this some, but I wish I could find him on Dish Network. I have dial-up at home and it's not unlimited.

We are independent, beholden to no special interest or political party.

You call a Supreme Court Justice an ASTERICS... but you are independent? Please, I guarantee I poll your Newsroom and editorial staff, and you won't find 10% Republican.

The question was :"How can differences unite us?"

I understand all about the liberal vision of 'diversity'.

When I answered the question, I did so from my own point of view.

No, that is why we bought the LAN and we would not have bought the LAN if we could have gotten a descent dial up.

I have used one of these URLs to listen to Rush before we got the LAN.

http://www.premrad.com/

http://www.wabcradio.com/

http://www.ksfo.com/hosts.asp

http://www.wbal.com/shows/limbaugh/

Hope one of these can help. There are probably more that I have not searched out.

After the Reid/Frist fiasco the other day I am not sure anything is changing.
The Republicans need to have some bees set loose in their britches or they need leaders with some creativity.
The country needs people who understand imprecatory prayer and how to wield that weapon so that we don't lose any more of the liberties we once had.

It begins with you and me! And, IMHO, it has begun.

Be patient. Be persistant.

In practice, diversity means special privileges for select, left wing defined victim groups. This divide and conquer by the 'rats has worked well in the past, but is dangerous to a country that historically prided itself on assimilation of immigrants.
