  As opposed to some states like I have listed?   Sorry but government is government. None of it is efficient. I see that you also didn't mention taking away our military bases.  I was responding to your statement that the US government should not own any land. I disagree and there are some things that they should own. How much and for what reasons would definitely but up for debate however you said they should not own land. I think they should and I don't think anywhere near a majority of people want all federal lands given up. 

  So they can evict our navy from their nuclear bases in Virginia as state's rights?    Then maybe our national parks like the great ones here in TX and maybe the Grand Canyon can be sold to the highest bidder because a state (like CA or NY) is mismanaged and is in dire need of money? 

This thread was only in its second day when you deemed it as dead.    I think you are confusing it with the other 15 or so BISD threads about all the crooks, idiots  and ostriches. 

  Trotting around.......... 

I think this horse is still out in the pasture..........

  With Obama setting the low bar on this thing, almost everyone is qualified. 

She has a long list of accomplishments.   1. First lady of the Arkansas. 2  First lady of the USA.  3. US Senator because she was the first lady of the USA in a state she never lived in or was from. 4. Secretary of State because she was first lady of the USA. 5. Considered a perennial powerhouse because she was the first lady of the USA.  6. Made into a laughing stock because of her philandering husband because she was the fist lady of the USA.   Yep, she is well qualified and has a long list of accomplishments. 

The really crazy thing is, it is not a first come, first serve. They have to run background investigations, check credit/financial history, dependents, etc. This was only an application and they all go into a pile to be assessed at a later time.   Today there were people trickling in all day and there was never more than about 30 or so people applying after the first hour. In other words, the people that camped out all night, could have simply walked in the second day and been the first in line at almost any time of the day. 

  Am I etc., or an illiterate troll?  :ph34r:

  Why stop now?  :D

  BISD school board perhaps?

  I don't know. Ask someone that has made a judgment. 

  Too late or not until he found out that he couldn't cover it up any more?

  More like would have made him a hero.    If he had come in and said this ship is leaking and I am here to plug the holes, he would probably up for awards instead of the unemployment line. 

  There is no irony. I said that it was about appearance which is what was said.    As far as the hate group tats, you might not care but I'll bet a majority of people would, particularly looking at the demographics in a particular area. 

  But he is a great teacher......   Maybe but is that what matters the most here?   What if I show you a teacher with impeccable teaching credentials. He scored 4.0 in all college courses. All of his fellow college students claim that he is always pleasant and gets along with others and is a simply awesome instructor. He has the ability to get through to some students when others have failed. Simply put, he is the best possible teacher a district can ask for.   But when he shows up for work, you find out why he always wore long sleeve shirt with high collars. You find out that he has SS tattoos on one side of his neck and Aryan Brotherhood tats down both arms. On the other side of his neck he has a tat of a fist with White Power. Then he has a swastika on his forehead that he was covering with makeup.    Do you want this simply awesome teacher in your school when at school he acts professionally. We don't even know if he belongs to any such groups or did at one time but changed. Do you really want him teaching your kids while exercising his First Amendment rights of freedom of speech..... after all, he is a great teacher?    I am not comparing this to what is happening in Lumberton or anything close to it. It is only an example where simply being a good teacher might not tell the entire story and in some professions, appearance does matter.    You are a teacher but I am sure that you have dress codes. Should it be that way or should you or anyone else be able to teach in any appearance as long as it is legal?   

Yes because then the TEA leaves, the community will have another election and appoint a new superintendent  and it will all start over. Maybe some of the thefts will stop as the newer people in charge will realize that they will be under a  microscope but the attitudes and beliefs will remain. 

  Oh well....................... 

  What has that got to do with anything?

  Maybe the board member is the "power" person.......... 

    You say that you can understand what he is going through..... but then toss out that you understand that someone might be uncomfortable that you are a man in that position.   Do you understand then the additional concern when that man's attire is dresses?    Who do you understand or sympathize with more, the one guy that wants to dress outside of the norm and/or sex or the parents that have to send their kids in there? 

I will reprint this from the other forum with permission from the owner:      

  More like the captain is kicking out the rats under guise of cleaning up the area and claiming the rat wanted go to another ship. 

It probably has nothing to do with teaching. I find it strange that a man dresses as a woman in a classroom setting.    I could care less about sexual preferences, who is sleeping with who or what he does inside of his own home. I just think it is wrong.    If he wants a sex change, go for it and become a woman and then wear a dress.    I think that if we put some thought to it, we might find a lot of people that have a great ability to teach but that we might not want to be in front of children. Heck, being topless in TX is not against the law. Should male or female teachers be able to teach without covering up because it i legal and the teacher might be great? 

I rise in defense of BMTSoulja on this issue.  :D
