Speaking of affirmative action.
I haven't eaten in at MacDonalds in the last couple
of
decades, but I remember they used to have written on
their
paper place mats,
"We are an Affirmative Action, Equal Opportunity
employer".
Isn't that a dichotomy?

No.

From
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affirmative_Action

In 1965, President Lyndon B. Johnson issued
Executive
Order
11246 which required federal contractors to take
"affirmative action" to hire without regard to race,
religion and national origin.



Then explain why "Minorities" are being accepted into
schools while Caucasians with higher test scores and
qualifications are being passed
over? Is that Equal Opportunity, nondiscriminatory?
The
same thing has been happening in the work force for
many
years. o_O

That's not true. It's an urban myth perpetrated by the
parents of stupid children.


Ah, yes, a member of The P.L.L.C.F. reveals itself. ^_^

Wrong again...but you're certainly free to keep guessing.

If it quacks like a duck, it must be trolling. ^_^

First you accuse me of being a member of the PLLCF, whatever
that is.
Then I'm a trolling duck.

When people realize they're wrong, they often resort to
childish tactics like name calling.
