Buffalo School Board votes 6-2 in favor of ousting Paladino

No predictions but I would welcome him on my school board

Insulting a public figure like Michelle obama is ok with me

How often anymore do school boards get very successful politically connected people who want to serve? No were near often enough say I. The board should keep him and use him. But America is all offended all the time, we groove on that, even when it hurts us.
 
Because you see, calling for "White Genocide" is in alignment with the excessive PC idiocy, liberal / progressive ideology and tolerated, where as Paladino having an negative opinion about the first black president is not.

Score points for consistency and lack of hypocrisy for the excessive PC, liberal / progressives. :roll:

Excellent point sir.
 
Trump did speak out and step up. His team immediately denounced the guy. Why should the President Elect sully himself with such a low life by having to do it personally?

Your demand illustrates what I was referring to in the third paragraph of my previous comment.

If this were about jobs Trump likely would have had a different answer but yes, this should give some peace to people who are confused about Trump, those who think that he has no self control and that once you are on his team he will treat you like a crony.....Trump is very good at politics, he knows when to cut people out.

Show us the Trump quote. I've never seen where Trump responded. Not even a tweet as far as I know.

His team is not them same as Trump standing up and saying that Trump does not and will not condone this kind of hatred. Trump campaigned disparaging minorities and people with disabilities. For many Americans Trump's commitment to minorities remains a concern. Trump himself has done little to nothing to allay those concerns.

Why should the President Elect sully himself with such a lowlife by having to do it personally?

Because Paladino is one of many lowlifes that Trump chose to associate with early on. Because Trump has been buds with Paladino for a long time. Because of the terribly racist remarks made by Paladino about the President and the First Lady. Because Trump can actively lead America away from growing racism and bigotry or he can tacitly approve of it.

I'm not handicapped by views created for my consumption. I am not bound to the lies, deceit, fraud, and invention of Hillary, her MSM partners, and the political machine created to place her in office. Therefor, I am not moved by the "disparaging" memes they produced through the effort.

So, pushing such folly aside, I would no more expect President Obama to personally address every fool under his shadow, as I would President Elect Trump. Like Obama, Trump had his team make the appropriate and well deserved condemnation.

The ludicrous demand in your final sentence indicates how little interest many have in actually moving beyond this bigoted game plan that, at this point, appears to be the only arrow in it's quiver.

Perhaps more than you know. I once served on a school board. To my surprise I found that many people who serve on school boards are extremely political and often begin their political careers serving on school boards. While I found the experience enlightening and educating I did not find it enjoyable on the whole.
 
Here, allow me to quote myself from a post above.

Obama didn't excuse when he took office in 2008? :lamo

Please don't let me interrupt you quoting yourself... please continue.

Was the Drexel professor affiliated with Obama's campaign?

Only in Trumpland is objection to the kind of garbage Paladino spewed "excessive PC." He really has made it cool to be an asshole again.

For the good of America, and quite frankly the reelection of trump, he would take your advice.

What I'm seeing from the trump team is a complete dichotomy on every issue and occurrence.

What we will see every day from trumposters is 100% deflection from the subject content of any trump thread.

Such as the first post to this thread heading off to the twilight zone of white genocide.

And calling into question the validity of exact quotes from GOPoliticians based on the source of the link.

It's far easier for trumposters to remain in election mode and bash HRC and BHO with their childish name-calling than to defend the actions of the trump team ..

Do you understand the meaning of satire? Have you read more than Breitbart concerning the Drexel professor's quote? Have you followed that story since its initial release? No, you haven't. Either that or you don't understand the concept or you just throw **** on the wall and hope that it will stick.

Let me quote myself once again:

I'm confused as to how Trump is different when y'all spend a lot of time telling us that Trump is the same. Make up your mind. If Trump is going to raise the bar then goddamnit hold him to higher standards. It seems to me that Trumpeteers are so damned unsure of Trump that they are afraid to criticize him when he is wrong. One thing for certain, the constant excusing of Trump's actions and words by providing examples of how Obama or Hillary did the same thing doesn't make Trump better, it makes him the same.

While I found the experience enlightening and educating I did not find it enjoyable on the whole.

That job is sure to be a shock for anyone who labors under the delusion that school systems believe that educating our precious packages is the main thing.

Does that even make the top ten list of priorities anymore?

PERHAPS

Carl Paladino plans to fight the effort to oust him from the School Board ... calling the effort politically motivated and to expect a combative year.

Two Questions - Do you think Paladino finishes his current School Board term? Would you want him as a School Board member for your children?

I predict he does not finish his term. I would not want him as a School Board member for my children.

Good thing you live in Tampa ! :roll:

Since I've seen very little from the trump transition team or trump himself to believe he'll MAGA, I'm fine with trump's actions and those of his excuse-makers and content diverters in minimizing the racist vomit from this skkkumbag pile of steaming manure as we head toward the 2018 elections .
 
No predictions but I would welcome him on my school board

Insulting a public figure like Michelle obama is ok with me

Better known as Mike to most . :lol:

Why does it matter? Taken solely on what each individual said, it's pretty much as I've described it.

Only in Trumpland is objection to the kind of garbage Paladino spewed "excessive PC." He really has made it cool to be an asshole again.

Yeah, I get it. Paladino spewed garbage, needs to be condemned and punished.

"White Genocide" is perfectly acceptable. Not an asshole at all, right? Perhaps worthy of a reward in your mind?

Geez. The left end of the spectrum is so contorted and distorted in their heaping steaming pile of hypocrisy, it's utterly amazing.
It's gotten so bad you don't even recognize it for what it is anymore.

Care to link to where I said that, or are you going to continue with the asinine strawmen?
 
This isn't about Hillary. Excusing Trump because of Hillary doesn't make Trump better, it makes him like Hillary.

Why are you going on and on about Hillary and the left? The thread and my posts have been about the racist Trump campaign co-chair for New York, his despicable words and actions and Trump's unwillingness (again) to personally step up and speak out and deal with the bigotry expressed by a major Trump supporter.

And the left has no problem with professors wishing for white genocide , got it . :lol:
 
Care to link to where I said that, or are you going to continue with the asinine strawmen?

It's not a strawman at all.

Time and time again we are seeing bad behavior that is in alignment with liberal / progressive ideology getting a pass, where any bad behavior that isn't in alignment with liberal / progressive ideology get's public a public flogging, deserved or not.

Frankly I'm completely fed up with it, and I think it's a legitimate point of contention.
 
Care to link to where I said that, or are you going to continue with the asinine strawmen?

Of course he can't and he won't criticize this asshole without trashing something unrelated in the same post "on the other side".

There must be a "white genocide" thread around here somewhere.

Hopefully western NY and western PA voters are paying attention to who trump's strongest supporters are .
 
That job is sure to be a shock for anyone who labors under the delusion that school systems believe that educating our precious packages is the main thing.

PERHAPS

It wasn't shocking as it was disappointing. Yeah, I'm certain there are still people who want to make a difference for children.
 
And the left has no problem with professors wishing for white genocide , got it . :lol:

Care to link where any leftie posters or politicians have no problem with professors wishing for white genocide.

Feel free to use threads on DP that are currently active on the professor's comments.

If I just put on my Democratic hat and not my American hat, I'm quite pleased with how the asshole Paladino's actions have worked out.

As long as GOPols aren't going to criticize Paladino without deflecting in the same post, they lose on this issue .
 
And the left has no problem with professors wishing for white genocide , got it . :lol:

What? Am I a broken record? Are you, too, unfamiliar with the concept of satire or have you not read all the information concerning professor from Drexel?

Beyond that, what in the **** does this have to do with Paladino and Trump's non-response?

This post is directed at everyone. I don't know much, well, anything period, about Mr. Paladino so besides what Paladino said about Obama and Mrs. Obama is there anything else in this guys past that would indicate a negative view of black people in general?
