My problem with Dumbo isn't that he's half white/black. It's that he's an unqualified stupid lying POS.
Really? I thought you just liked arguing for the sake of arguing. Can you verify that you're NOT a drunken lard ass computer salesman troll?
Your comments fall in the category of the fallacy a loaded question. Similar to an attorney asking a witness, "When did you start beating your wife?" When the man isn't even married. You made claims you can't verify, many people around here at ET do that. There is a tendency for the beaten man to resort to lies and distortion when they can't win an argument. So, I'll just continue to allow you to expose your true nature, and share that with others...
Says the expert on resorting to lies and distortion when they can't win an argument. You do that dopey, and continue to expose yourself in the process. So, where's that proof you're not a drunken lard ass computer salesman troll?
And I thought you said you were a smart guy. I don't think there is anyone here who cares that Obama is half-black. In fact, it is white people who elected Obama because he is black. They didn't even bother to look at his political and social history. Now they are beginning to realize they have elected someone who has set out to destroy the America we all cherish.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Abstract Recent studies have made great strides towards identifying putative genetic events underlying the evolution of the human brain and its emergent cognitive capacities. One of the most intriguing findings is the recurrent identification of adaptive evolution in genes associated with primary microcephaly, a developmental disorder characterized by severe reduction in brain size and intelligence, reminiscent of the early hominid condition. This has led to the hypothesis that the adaptive evolution of these genes has contributed to the emergence of modern human cognition. As with other candidate loci, however, this hypothesis remains speculative due to the current lack of methodologies for characterizing the evolutionary function of these genes in humans. Two primary microcephaly genes, ASPM and Microcephalin, have been implicated not only in the adaptive evolution of the lineage leading to humans, but in ongoing selective sweeps in modern humans as well. The presence of both the putatively adaptive and neutral alleles at these loci provides a unique opportunity for using normal trait variation within humans to test the hypothesis that the recent selective sweeps are driven by an advantage in cognitive abilities. Here, we report a large-scale association study between the adaptive alleles of these genes and normal variation in several measures of IQ. Five independent samples were used, totaling 2393 subjects, including both family-based and population-based datasets. Our overall findings do not support a detectable association between the recent adaptive evolution of either ASPM or Microcephalin and changes in IQ. As we enter the post-genomic era, with the number of candidate loci underlying human evolution growing rapidly, our findings highlight the importance of direct experimental validation in elucidating their evolutionary role in shaping the human phenotype http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/...roller.PPMCArticlePage.PPMCPubmedRA&linkpos=1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Abstract Normal human brain volume is heritable. The genes responsible for variation in brain volume are not known. Microcephalin (MCPH1) and ASPM (abnormal spindle-like microcephaly associated) have been proposed as candidate genes as mutations in both genes are associated with microcephaly, and common variants of each gene are apparently under strong positive selective pressure. In 120 normal subjects, we genotyped these variants and measured brain volumes using magnetic resonance imaging. We found no evidence that the selected alleles were associated with increases or decreases in brain volume. This result suggests that the selective pressure on these genes may be related to subtle neurobiological effects or to their expression outside the brain. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16687438
Twas a barb pspr. Phenom has a socio-political bent that we have all seen before. He tries to mask it, but it is there. Obama is likely to b fired over this Texas border thing alone. Insomuch as destroying the country, during the election he began to be compared to Kennedy. Kennedy did not know when to quit. I turned to a friend of mine and told them that Obama will be rocking no boats of consequence. That has turned out to be true. I no longer believe in the two party system, the only thing that remains are cultural ideologies. Will Americans be Americans as written in the constitution, or not?
It is no surprise to me that you ignore, and fail to respond to my points, while simultaneously demanding that I am responsive to all of yours. I have a "socio-political" bent which I try to mask? How is that? I'd say I'm quite forthright about my "socio-political bent", so much so that claiming that I try to hide it is utterly absurd. I would ask what "socio-political bent" you are talking about, but we both know you will just ignore it (again). You have no rebuttal to my points, which is precisely why you ignore them. I'm sure you have some half cocked idea about how this all fits into the broad racist conspiracy to oppress the black man, yada yada, which you wont articulate on because you have some idea of just how stupid it would sound. For what it's worth, my dissatisfaction with Obama has nothing to do with the fact that he's black. It has to do with his socialist policies and his destruction of our economy. The fact that he's done nothing to correct the systemic discrimination against white people, my people , despite the fact that there is now a black president also doesn't help. I'd be overjoyed to have a black man along the lines of say Allen West in the White House. Policy, not race, is my issue with the O-bomb. But of course that doesn't fit into your broad racist conspiracy/victimology world view... Funny how if you want the job to go the best qualified, or the admission/aid to go to the best student REGARDLESS of race, then you are a "racist". It's only if you are in favor of anti white discrimination that you may be purged of the "racist" label... Does that strike anyone else as odd?
You're becoming reactionary, as is to be expected. You have expressed the idea that non-whites are different, any you mean that in a negative sense based on the articles you post. If it were up to you, I believe you would try to re-establish some sort of caste system, based on the "scientific" fact that non-whites are "different". U try to label anything pro-minority as anti-white. This is nothing more than retreaded racism. How is Obama destroying the nation in any new and improved way that has not been in every president since Reagan? Come on man, do u seriously think we are not acquainted with white collar racism?
LOL!! You're a psychic too? Yes, non whites are different from non whites. Just as blacks are different from non blacks, asians different from non asians, mestizos different from non mestizos, indians different from non indians, so forth. That's really irrefutable, as we can observe that there are differences, and science reinforces that there are differences. You might have noticed that two white parents generally tend to give birth to white children, and two black parents tend to give birth to black children. Race is a biological reality. I "mean that in a negative way"? Really? Is that what your crystal ball told you? Why is it that you are trying to presume what I mean? You are putting words in my mouth, and making assertions on my behalf which I never made. Kind of sad that that's all you have to desperately try to make some kind of point here. Not only that, you went a step further to psychically divine that I would "re-establish some sort of caste system"... LOL!!! What a joke. It's really sad that these imaginary concoctions are all you can muster to try to make a point. Nevermind that you avoid addressing all of my points, you are left with making up imaginary conspiracies to try to make points of your own. I challenge you to show me one post of mine which advocates or suggests some sort of "caste system". How is obama destroying the nation? Well, socialized healthcare, "stimulus packages", and 2x gdp/debt ratio are a start. It's just your anti white knee jerk reaction to paint any criticism of obama as "racist". As I previously said, Obama's policies are my problem with him. Of course you wont believe that, because it doesn't fit your racist conspiracy world view. Also, it's you who construes everything which is pro-white, as being anti minority. I never once said that minorities should not be able to organize and pursue their own group interests. What I said is that white people should have the same freedom. Do you have a problem with that? What are you? Some kind of racist or something? LOL!! What is "white collar racism"? You can't even tell me what "racism" means, yet I'm a "white collar racist"? Gtfo. I'm sorry that you are so ashamed of your race and/or ethnic group that you want to pretend it doesn't exist. Sorry that you are that ashamed of your identity. That must be a heavy burden to bare. Because of your personal issues, the mere notion of an ethnocentric white person, or white people having the same rights to organize and pursue group interests makes you boil with hatred and resentment for them. Sorry, but your anti white PC gig is about up. EQUAL rights, not special privileges... You have no defense of your premise, and fail to address, much less actually refute my premise. You simply ignore points you don't like and then proceed to shout "racist". For some reason you guys think ad hominem is a valid approach to an argument.
