The Equal Pay Act was signed in 1963.


Women are not paid less than men for the same job.


Women and men work different jobs, for different hours, which leads to differences in pay that are not the fault of the employer.

Totally agree here. But is has to be pointed out that woman have traditionally been passed over for the higher paying job promotions, but I agree women and men are now paid the same for the same job.

Not At anywhere near a 94% clip , next

Again I have agreed with you several times that the MSM is more biased than Fox. Now will you ever be able to admit that Fox and the other conservative sources also show right leaning bias and half truths, as I have shown? I have no idea why this is so hard for you, it's common knowledge and your refusal to admit it damages your credibility.

They fill their audience a biased coverage and a few critical comments about Trump does not undue all the biased anti-left coverage they provide.

Disagree... the so called MSM is no more biased than the Fox and RWM, there are just more outlets for the MSM than there are the RWM.

@skinsdad62 just said "nope" when I asked him to acknowledge that Fox also shows a bias. I have no idea what the fuck I am doing here debating with such a person, this is not my opinion it's a fact. An old friend from a previous board saw my exchange with Dad a few weeks ago and suggested I cut bait immediately.

So you are calling me a liar for saying I could not find your posts from over a week ago which represents probably 20+ pages in this thread? Come on that's unfair. I'd really like to see this info but I have no idea where to find it, and since you are unwilling to provide it again I have no idea where we go from here.
But you expect me to go find them for you ? No I won’t and blame previous posters screwing it up for you .

It pretty easy look in the area where this debate was rampant . You will find it there or you can google it

Leftist do this shit all the time . Speak about pro life, get punched , wear a maga hat , get attacked , go to a restaurant , get harrrassed , speak at a college get threatened or have riots outside , walk down the street get a milk shakes thrown at you

How about winning in the arena of ideas instead of the time old socialist / communist tactic of bullying and intimidation

I don't think you understand his point and reason for the suggestion. The reason is you, not me. But it's probably a good suggestion, we just do the same thing over and over again.

I'll probably get banned for saying this but so be it. I was a mod, I understand it's a difficult job. I also understood it's the mod's job to maintain order and calm the waters. But here the mod is the worst instigator on the board. Your constant sophomoric jabs at Dean were over the top, instead of calming the waters you constantly throw gas on the fire. It's the reason I left, it's the reason so many others have as well.

Just my .02

If an African American and a Muslim were kneeling side by side and one of them "had" to be beheaded and she was the one who "had" to decide which one dies... who would she chose, and why? Every person (left) play along please. No need for any conservatives to play since I know they already know her decision. Sty..Shark..DGF, Chill, ebh5

Remember before answering... She is an American Citizen and a US representative that your party supports.

Perhaps we all just need to agree that we'll never agree and return this thread to the political thread on the main SportsHoopla page. Training camp is around the corner with a new QB bout to debut and who needs politics to get in the way. IMO

First off you won’t get banned , and if you believe i would do that then you are a fool
Only 3 people have I banned and not because they disagree with me . Of those. 3 , 2 have been allowed to come back


2nd I apologized to dean a long time ago and started enforcing rules .

3rd , I could care less if it’s me or not . You can choose to carry on or not and if you damn sleep better at nite thinking it’s me then it’s cool by me

Being a mod doesn’t mean I can’t have opinions . It doesn’t mean I can’t poor “ gas “ on a fire either

Debate is debate and if you can’t force me to think your way then so be it but that doesn’t mean I have to back down which is what you want

If people leave because they can’t handle political debate in this thread so be it . I won’t be bullied by your alleged stories of mass defections

Bottom line is you want me to go back and repost stuff I already have posted much like other posters want . Sorry but I am not taking my damn time to search for it only to have the same thing happen again and again .

If it’s that important to you then you take YOUR time to find it not MINE

As I have said before blame other posters before you for my attitude as they screwed it up with their games .

I don’t care why you left . It’s your life and if this site doesn’t fulfill your needs then you should go somewhere else and get the kind of talk you are looking for

If this politics thread is the source of your angst you can take your debating skills to the politics board on SportsHoopla or simply discipline yourself not to use it

But if you think for a moment I am going to stop giving my opinions and changing my beliefs then you are sadly mistaken . If I believe FOX is non biased then that’s my issue . If my alleged credibility is damaged so be it . I don’t seek yours or anyone else’s assessment of my credibility

You have a vision of how a moderator should be and I have mine . I don’t seek or care about your opinion on how things should be run or what your vision is about how a moderator should do the job

I know how I would go about countering my viewpoint but trying to silence me won’t work or any other primitive manipulation you want to come up with

The ball is in your court . Whatever choice you make will be the right one

They keep it up, it’ll get real nasty soon. These little fools going to do this to the wrong conservative, like one that believes in the 2nd amendment or better yet just plain out whoop the fools ass

the shorestein study out of harvard (a liberal bastion ) found that CNN HLN NPR , MSNBC and CNBC were negative on trump over 90% of the time the past 3 years

the main 3 abc , cbs nbc 80% of the time negative , NYT 80% negative

only one network was relatively even handed , FOX at 52% negative and 48% positive

now if you are looking for both sides of an issue who do you go with ? the numbers are clear

those are called facts . not opinions not emotions , but facts

i get people who complain about debates and how they should be conducted , well here is how you debate , with facts not some hypothetical crap but real data

some people cant handle that

A long time ago, 1990 or so I thought I thought it might be time to replace Joe Gibbs. Silly me. Be careful what you wish for.

This is one of the busiest boards on the Hoop. In large part because dad is fair about applying the rules. IMO you have been on dad's ass about his opinions because you do not agree with him. He has as much right to his opinions as you or anyone else. So be careful when you are calling others sophomoric. I would say to anyone if you are going to play on the political forum then be ready for some who have very different opinions.

Just my :2cents:
