I was talking to a student just now....
...and she said "did you hear that Barack Obama wants to do away with the flag and the National Anthem?"

WTF??!?? Is this a new meme being spread around? (I'm in Florida, so nothing I hear should surprise me, but STILL....)

She said "a lady at work" had told her, so I told her her "homework" was to have the lady at work provide some legitimate sources or shut the fuck up. (Yes I said fuck. It's college so I'm allowed).

Sold most white, black, yellow, brown, lavender and pink people into slavery....while there's golden parachutes for the criminals who trashed our economy over the last 8 years.

2. I wish someone WOULD do away with our national anthem. That thing is
way too hard to sing.

9. MLA citation has methods for citing personal interviews (5.8.7)
Edited on Thu Oct-09-08 09:10 AM by alcibiades_mystery
They're often important forms of empirical research.

Just sayin'.

10. It is amusing what they come up with...
A Georgia caller - independent all her life voting republican this year cause the media is so biased (my word, not hers) against sarah palin - claimed that with Obama's associations, he was going to get in the white house and blow up the whole country. How can anyone be so damn stoopid?
