    All white vs all black pro bowl

    Sorry. I didn't know that he was referring to Michelle. I did know that Obama's mother had a male first name but forgot what it was.... I looked it up just now. Her name was Stanley. I thought that's what he was talking about.

    War in Israel

    I dunno either but I presume the lady is the sensible one since the guy has the rainbow flag. Most sensible of all presumably, are the two that interfere to separate them. Tip of the hat to black shirt and purple jacket.

    I also found it odd that her name was Michael, but I don't think we had shemales back then, and if we did, nobody would fock one.

    Georgia Election Was Rigged - DC Draino

    According to the Atlanta Journal Constitution, the Kemp administration made no such claim. The video evidence indicates convincingly to me that something fishy appeared to be going on in Fulton County that day, but if anyone is holding out hope that never-Trumpers like Kemp and Raffensperger are going to look into or take seriously allegations with voter fraud that occurred there, it's not happening.

    My Week 16 NFL Power Rankings

    I can't speak for him but I want SF, Philly, and Dallas to all lose in the first round. Since of then will get a first round bye, I want that team to lose in the second. Bring on more NFC South teams, please. In the AFC, if somebody could beat Baltimore please, we'll roll the dice with whoever gets through. Thank You for any cooperation.

    Baltimore looks great. This Christmas matchup with San Francisco will be incredible.

    This game must be incredibly maddening/frustrating for Jags fans.

    Bear and Titans did their damnedest to make the AFC playoff race a lot murkier, I thought they'd both win, instead the Browns and Texans survived them.

    Congrats Carolina defense. Atlanta is right there on the bubble too, somehow. If they want to make the playoffs, they have to beat teams like this.

    Maybe. I don't think they see it that way. And with Minnesota and Seattle both losing a bunch lately, their two playoff spots are in play for whoever rises to the occasion.

    He picked a great team to look good against. Getting a win and tiebreaker against the Packers may well get them into the playoffs.
  14. I don't have a copy of his book and haven't read excerpts in a very, very longtime.. The best I can do at present is link to an eight page critical review of it... https://www.aft.org/sites/default/files/Wineburg.pdf I can probably do the same with an online source but I'd be relearning the objections as I go.
  15. OMG! What did he get right? It's all second hand sources with little-to-no primary source material. Nor footnotes to even verify any of the bullsh*t stories that appear nowhere else. It's not history is anti-American propaganda that he makes all up... all being told from an America sucks perspective by a Marxist. Same with the 1619 project.
  16. They don't. That's another of the long list of lies being told to you, that you swallow uncritically.
  17. LOL at it being us editing the history books. As if we don't remember the history books from our youths. We didn't have a plague of American students supporting Hamas and tearing down George Washington statues before the Howard Zinns and Nikole Hannah Joneses of the world came along with their fake-ass history. We know who the liars are, just like we know who's been editing the history books.

    LOL if the Pats can KO the Chiefs.
  19. 'They" aren't tearing down their own statues and "they" sure as hell aren't stopping at tearing down Confederate statues. In California, "they" voted to paint over a George Washington mural, in New York City it's Teddy Roosevelt "they" took down, while in Oregon "they' removed the Pioneer statue. "They" erased Laura Ingalls Wilder's name from a children's author award and "they" are even re-naming bird species.

    Failure of the public education system

    Dying is a stretch. Education is vitally, crucially important but under pressure between lower standards and wokeness and teachers unions and figuring out how to adapt technology and whatnot.

    Failure of the public education system

    I can see a context where I would let this one slide. Twelve is an appropriate age for a health class, I would expect kids to know about the digestive system or the respiratory system, and that would include the reproductive system and the parts of it. A lot of kids learn by drawing. Show me the rest of the book. If it's full of activities for sketching the ear, the liver, the heart.... I'm going to accept this assignment as legitimate.
  23. Mostly people that never developed a system of writing. A lot of effort goes has gone into deciphering and preserving lost texts from civilizations around the world, much of the work being conducted by white males. Even human populations and cultures that leave no written records have artifacts such as jewelry or tools or pottery, along with bones, theirs or what they hunted, so efforts to make educated guesses of what their lives were like are able to be made.

    End of aaron rodgers?

    I don't think reeling off 1+3 wins gets them in the playoffs but it can disrupt Cleveland's positioning.
