Well we havent had a politically charged thread here in a while - so its time to stir the pot a bit.

I've been following this on another board, and to be honest I'm really dissapointed how politicians in this country act. Its a shame that some people cannot stand up and take responsibility, and continue to make a complete and total ass of themselves in the public eye.

Unfortunately, she will probably get re-elected for "keeping it real" and "standing up against the man".

Quote:An unconfirmed statement attributed to McKinney has been released on the Internet, where she allegedly claims to have been harassed by Capitol Hill Police.

The statement's writer says that she has been harassed by white police officers she says do not recognize her due to her recently changed hairstyle.

"Do I have to contact the police every time I change my hairstyle? How do we account for the fact that when I wore my braids every day for 11 years, I still faced this problem, primarily from certain white police officers," the statement says.

Quote:"Because she was assaulted and placed in impending fear of her safety, she responded," he said. "This case has just begun and we're going to fight, and we're going to use the U.S. Constitution."

Myart further called the incident racial profiling and said there was "no excuse" for Capitol Police not recognizing his client, and Raffauf said she was stopped solely because of her race, gender and politics.

Quote:Her supporters tried to minimize the incident -- which they called political, not criminal -- but they also suggested it was an example of racial profiling. They called publicity surrounding the episode a distraction that is being used by "her enemies" to keep the congresswoman from performing her elected duties.

This version has been translated in case you've seen it before.

So I'm driving to work right. Remember that thread on my truck making funny noises? Well it was still making them... I checked the coolant last night and all was well, had plenty left. On the drive to work, I look at the temp gauge and it's completely pegged. Shit I though, pull over and let it cool down. So I do this about 5 or 6 times, with more and more smoke being expelled every time.

I just wanted to make it to my jobsite so I could park it and let it die in peace. It gave up the ghost as I pulled into my community and I somehow managed to coax it next to our construction trailer where it proceeded to explode into a huge ball of white smoke. Radiator went pop. I thought it actually caught on fire, but it didn't.

No big deal. I mean yeah it sucks that I have to buy a new truck with a 5 figure motor rebuild bill over my head, but I'll deal I think to myself. It was almost worth it to watch the redneck day laborers we hire from West Virginia to jump around hooting and hollering when they saw the smoke, running to get fire extinguisher, etc. haha

So I get to my office for our weekly production meeting, and I proceed to get told by our service manager (who in no way has any authority over me) that he threw me under the bus at a divisional boss meeting over some retarded bullshit that happened the other day. That completely was not my fault. I wanted to punch the fat fuck right in his goatee.

And now it looks like I may not be able to make it down for alumni weekend, nor the car show =( I'll probably be searching for a new cheap ass truck.

Anyone know of any for sale? For like 1500 or less? hah. I might try to find a more expensive one if I feel like it's worth it, but I'd really rather not. I'll be renting a shitty neon or cobalt for a week just so I can get to and from work, so I guess I have that much time to find one.

what do you guys think of this:

HPDE *WILL* sell out fast. Burn Visa Burn

Well its been a tradition for just about every year we've had the show so who would like to host the afterparty? Refreshments will be paid for but we'd have to make sure we're good on the sound system.

We can get at least 4 or 5 people to help with clean up so that's no problem (we can even steam clean the carpet if desired).

Ok so I know what you are all thinking... Ok, so actually it is just a picture from VIR in February. And actually its just a picture of a car, with Chris working the oak tree corner, and if you look closely you can see Rex's arm holding the flag, its on page 154 for all that are actually interested. Its a good article, from Scott Lear who was at VIR for comp school I believe. He's a really nice guy, I had a chance to chat with him at Hyperfest last year, and again at VIR.
