What are you supposed to do with kids when they bug you?

Personally, I prefer zip ties.

On one hand Reich claims that these jobs are skilled.
Then he claims that people can be trained to perform them quickly.
Which is it? Are they skilled jobs, or are they ones that require little training? I guess to a liberal professor, there is no difference. Anything that doesn’t require a doctorate can be learned in a couple of days.

Why not? If it worked for him … /sarc

She definitely got the short end of the stick….

I suspect, as the track record of the left has shown, we will hear plenty more of the “what I meant to say…” clarifications.

Disingenuously feigning poor reading comprehension seems to be a staple of conservative discourse on this site.

Constantine,
Here is some straight-forward writing comprehension for a liberal:
Reich is a half-wit, at best, with a raging Napoleonic complex and the only way he could get a chick was to be pro-abortion in the early ’70s. Along the way, like Lord Barack the Most Merciful, he chose more self-loathing people and their policies he would never apply to himself (for example this particular poster is tired of hippie retreads always getting professorships – so with his “logic” – no more white male hippie retread professors).

Reich is a little man in one more than way.

I defy anyone to tour a construction site (any site) where white males are the majority.

Secondly, I don’t think I want to drive over a bridge that has been designed and built by entry level engineers. Maybe Robert should recommend a quota system for the longest-standing white male body in the country: Congress.

The hate mail I have received since your broadcast suggests that the mischievous consequences of your demagoguery are potentially dangerous, in addition to being destructive of rational and constructive political discourse.

And if construction jobs go mainly to white males who already dominate the construction trades, many people who need jobs the most — women, minorities, and the poor and long-term unemployed — will be shut out.

So White Men don’t need jobs? White Men are never poor? Or long term unemployed? Really? Oh yeah. For white men, jobs just arrive in the mail. or summin. This is beyond the pale.

How is that Bobby? Odd I have never heard any of these ignorant racists from academia promote that. Wonder why?

Anyone wish to hazard a guess?

The hate mail I have received since your broadcast suggests that the mischievous consequences of your demagoguery are potentially dangerous, in addition to being destructive of rational and constructive political discourse.

“being destructive of … constructive political discourse”?? I think Reich needs to include a remedial English course for himself in the “stimulus” bill. Is this how they speak at Harvard (or whatever center for snotty retards he’s with)?

Pretty funny stuff. Although, since Reich is a white male I’m pretty sure that he’ll be left out.

Or maybe Reich was trying to do some Zen thing, here?
