Really? I thought you just liked arguing for the sake of arguing. Can you verify that you're NOT a drunken lard ass computer salesman troll?

There is a tendency for the beaten man to resort to lies and distortion when they can't win an argument.
You do that dopey, and continue to expose yourself in the process.So, I'll just continue to allow you to expose your true nature, and share that with others...
And I thought you said you were a smart guy.Quote from RCG Trader:
Lol I certainly don't consider myself a victim, especially considering there is a non-white in the white house, which is eating you guys from the inside I know![]()
U, and people like u, are clearly on the retreat. That is why we are here exchanging barbs on ET, in P&R, no less.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_Lahn
Bruce Lahn is a geneticist at the University of Chicago. He is also the founder of the Center for Stem Cell Biology and Tissue Engineering at Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, China. His previous research specialized in human genetics and evolutionary genetics, especially human sex chromosome evolution and the genetic basis that underlies the evolutionary expansion of the human brain. Lahn's current research interests include stem cell biology and epigenetics.[1] His research on the brain size gene, MCPH1, led to the hypothesis that an archaic homo sapiens lineage such as the Neanderthals might have contributed to the recent development of the human brain.[2] His research also suggested that newly arisen variants of two brain size genes, ASPM and MCPH1, might have been favored by positive natural selection in the recent human history.[3] This research provoked controversy due to the finding that the positively selected variants of these genes had spread to higher frequencies in some parts of the world than in others (for ASPM, it is higher in Europe and surrounding regions than other parts of the world; for MCPH1, it is higher outside sub-Saharan Africa than inside).[4] He has advocated the moral position that human genetic diversity should be embraced and celebrated as among humanity's great assets.[5]
Lahn came to the U.S. from China to continue his education in the late 1980s.[6]
Lahn's honors include the Merrill Lynch Forum Global Innovation Award, the TR100 Award from Technology Review, the Burroughs Wellcome Career Award, and a Searle scholarship. He was also named to the 40-Under-40 list by Crains Chicago Business. Lahn received his B.A. in biology from Harvard University and his Ph. D. from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
"The 37-year-old Dr. Lahn says his research papers, published in Science last September, offered no view on race and intelligence. He personally believes it is possible that some populations will have more advantageous intelligence genes than others. And he thinks that "society will have to grapple with some very difficult facts" as scientific data accumulate. Yet Dr. Lahn, who left China after participating in prodemocracy protests, says intellectual "police" in the U.S. make such questions difficult to pursue.
Scientists believe that a small group of anatomically modern humans struck out from Africa probably less than 100,000 years ago. After arriving on the Eurasian land mass, they continued to split up and eventually humans populated nearly every corner of the globe. One use of genetic research is to probe how each group evolved differently after becoming isolated from the others. Recently created genetic maps of people of African, Asian and European ancestry make that research easier.
For instance, researchers have found that most Europeans have a genetic variant that lets them fully digest milk as adults. The variant is much less common in Africa and Asia, where lactose
intolerance is widespread. Scientists theorize that it spread quickly among Europeans because drinking milk from domesticated dairy animals conferred a nutritional advantage. Similar evolutionary reasoning may explain why many people in malaria-prone parts of Africa carry gene variants linked to malaria resistance."

I don't think there is anyone here who cares that Obama is half-black. In fact, it is white people who elected Obama because he is black. They didn't even bother to look at his political and social history.
Now they are beginning to realize they have elected someone who has set out to destroy the America we all cherish.
, despite the fact that there is now a black president also doesn't help. I'd be overjoyed to have a black man along the lines of say Allen West in the White House. Policy, not race, is my issue with the O-bomb. But of course that doesn't fit into your broad racist conspiracy/victimology world view... Quote from RCG Trader:
Twas a barb pspr. Phenom has a socio-political bent that we have all seen before. He tries to mask it, but it is there.
Obama is likely to b fired over this Texas border thing alone. Insomuch as destroying the country, during the election he began to be compared to Kennedy. Kennedy did not know when to quit. I turned to a friend of mine and told them that Obama will be rocking no boats of consequence. That has turned out to be true.
I no longer believe in the two party system, the only thing that remains are cultural ideologies. Will Americans be Americans as written in the constitution, or not?
Quote from phenomena:
It is no surprise to me that you ignore, and fail to respond to my points, while simultaneously demanding that I am responsive to all of yours.
I have a "socio-political" bent which I try to mask? How is that? I'd say I'm quite forthright about my "socio-political bent", so much so that claiming that I try to hide it is utterly absurd. I would ask what "socio-political bent" you are talking about, but we both know you will just ignore it (again). You have no rebuttal to my points, which is precisely why you ignore them.
I'm sure you have some half cocked idea about how this all fits into the broad racist conspiracy to oppress the black man, yada yada, which you wont articulate on because you have some idea of just how stupid it would sound.
For what it's worth, my dissatisfaction with Obama has nothing to do with the fact that he's black. It has to do with his socialist policies and his destruction of our economy. The fact that he's done nothing to correct the systemic discrimination against white people, my people, despite the fact that there is now a black president also doesn't help. I'd be overjoyed to have a black man along the lines of say Allen West in the White House. Policy, not race, is my issue with the O-bomb. But of course that doesn't fit into your broad racist conspiracy/victimology world view...
Funny how if you want the job to go the best qualified, or the admission/aid to go to the best student REGARDLESS of race, then you are a "racist". It's only if you are in favor of anti white discrimination that you may be purged of the "racist" label... Does that strike anyone else as odd?
I challenge you to show me one post of mine which advocates or suggests some sort of "caste system". Quote from RCG Trader:
