This defense of Obama is so funny vs the attacks on Trump is that Obama gets the benefit of the doubt on a subject that is cut and dry(where he was born) that is a requirement by law to be president and Obama could have put to bed in 10 minutes, while Trump is shamed and ridiculed for not giving his tax returns which every honest person knows is complex and will be torn apart for political advantage. Yet one is guilty because SoTier says so and the other is innocent because we are using a completely different standard.

Thomas Sowell - Quote of the Day
Orlando Buffalo replied to dubs's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I might tune in for that- I have not watched any cable news in at least a year since I dropped cable, but he is actually worth listening to. -
California (again)
Orlando Buffalo replied to \GoBillsInDallas/'s topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
This story confused me since what was gained? Does WV have a special rule in regards to party affiliation? In FL it matters for primary but otherwise it is inconsequential. Was it to prove how easy fraud is? -
Wayfair is trending on Twitter, WHY???
Orlando Buffalo replied to Reality Check's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I am not stating I know anything about Wayfair, but the concept of an "artistic" pillow, or dresser that is real expensive is one of the ways that money laundering has worked. In fact a mafia boss at one time had a relative do painting and "sell" them to people for services rendered. -
I am still right but the context does offer the question whose fault is it. CK was not good but his coaches did not help him and might have handicapped him. Good points.

In football if you are arguing performances from 5+ years ago you are in trouble. He had two great seasons, but he had two mediocre to poor season to end his career

I am not shy about telling anyone who will listen I am a teacher, but you did tell me I don't respect teachers. As for your obstacles, admin and parents can always be an issue, especially when it is not applied across the board. If everyone is told for the get go what the expectations are and the punishment then it can happen. How does your school deal with weapons and drugs? The problems generally come from the policy not being applied equally

Taxes are definitely more damaging in more liberal areas and I am a prime example. I paid 2k a year in state and local taxes to NYS when I lived there when I did not own property or make more than 40k a year alone. This year in Florida I own a 300k home, make 120k and pay 2k in local and state taxes. I have owned my property for 17 years and it benefits me.

“Cancel” / Knee-Jerk Culture of 2020 and beyond
Orlando Buffalo replied to RiotAct's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
If he was walking by with his family and she yelled FU then he I am ok with it. This also shows how dishonest you are, at no point is this cancel culture and you know it. To be fired for behavior at work while working is absolutely proper, if she said it on the street and he went out of his way to find her and get her fired that is different. -
I do appreciate what you post, even if I do not comment. Please continue

That is simply not true anymore- I have students who get free room and board and classes paid for due to their parents being poor at state schools. All can go to a community college cheaply and federal aid will cover them, it might be a loan but a two year degree with a specific job in mind can be financed easily. No student who is willing to work through college will be denied right now due to their parents being too poor. Our state had a bunch that came and went over the years, we allow a lot of schools to open that shut down within a few years due to not doing a good job. All of these schools though are voluntary transfers, so I do not worry about it

In the state of Florida we have an online school that is very strong, but it needs a student who has some structure and support at home. It is actually so strong that several students at my school who wanted a class we did not offer- Japanese was one- were allowed to do it online during a planned period. Also the biggest issue is regards to students social distancing is not in class but the halls and lunch, classroom I can easily handle but not the other two.

Two questions you are easy, if kid is intentionally being unsafe he is suspended, second time he is put online for rest of year. Contact sports must be eliminated for this year at high school level, since they can not make an informed decision. But I appreciate you being reasonable and seeing that the answers are not one size fits all.

The Mizzou/Yale/PC/Free Speech Topic
Orlando Buffalo replied to FireChan's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I was chalking it up just to poor writing by a "journalist" and the usual half correct info, but it could certainly be this student was trying to provoke a reaction due to other reasons.
