Republicans don't have a clue how to mount an effective collective attack, but you show us once again how to tear apart an individual poster as part of your defense. I attack ideas, you guys destroy your opponents one by one. And thoroughly enjoy it.
I would feel kind of bad about that. And I'm not going to play that game with you and the rest of your attack crowd, so yall waste some more board space chewing me or others up.
OK lets go at this from another direction. First, regarding Caslen. I had no earthly idea what political affiliation the other candidates for the USC President's job held. Never looked into it. But judging by the faculty and most of the BOT at the time, Caslen was way down the options of possibilities.
But then Calsen gets pushed through the others - NOW, this is where the politics came rushing in. People wanted him because "black Americans kneeling in front of the flag disrespects soldiers", and Caslen was a soldier. Never mind all of that fact had to do with many reasons why he was NOT prepared nor experienced enough to run a public state university - a military academy, yes, but that's not who we are. This isn't The Citadel we were talking about.
THEN people made an uproar over people of color not being given a fair chance for the job. And that started the "people of color not represented on the USC BOT enough" discussions, and the POLITICS of the whole thing exploded. It became conservative vs liberal, Republican vs Democrat, white vs black, man vs woman.
And the ugliest of all that were proudly displayed here on this forum.
So NOW, we have the fiasco between Darla Moore and USC boiling up all over again. The "uglies" are all rushing back to display their flaming misogyny, and yes, their POLITICS.
So here comes - no, not YOU personally, but your "idea" - that while the cause of the infection festers and remains, that we should NOT bear malice against the infection, but simply cosset the inflamed wound. Leave the infection in place, to continue to infect. When it was that thinking that allowed for the infection to be inserted into the host to begin with.
But despite your noble advice for the Gamecock posters to NOT "tear down" Calsen as a result of POLITICS, I couldn't help but note that NOWHERE in your pleas was the same advice for Darla Moore's side, even though it has been MOORE who has been torn at far, far more then Caslen has been since this fiasco came to public light.
That's just too obvious, friend. But good try. Just be careful in the future to not try SO HARD......
