in Colorado coaches speak out against Amendment 46 on The Colorado Independent
Dear Coaches:
I would like to ask for two underprivileged 'diversity' picks for your basketball team that are State Certified Height Challenged.

Don't kids that are only 5'6" want to play basketball at CU as much as kids 'granted by birth' six foot frames plus? How is this encouraging diversity in sports to IN FACT Exclude State Certified Height Challenged potential athlete/students? Oh, Lordy, call Melissa Hart. We must have diversity don't you know.

Black. white, yellow, brown, gender or whatever, stop putting people into boxes because they need your Liberal labels and.....'help'. You are enslaving citizens and you KNOW it.

Economic based aid is fine. Achievement based, economic aid is fine. This hate filled color or gender based discrimination has to end folks----it's 2008!

Stop creating socioeconomic slaves to assuage your Liberal guilt.

in McCain quietly supports anti-affirmative action agenda on The Colorado Independent
"Amendment 46, dubbed the Colorado Civil Rights Initiative, will destroy preferential treatment for women and minorities in public contracting, hiring and education."

Isn't this a goal? To have a color blind and gender blind society?

I'm confused? How could women be a minority?

I don't think our government (us) should 'prefer' one simply by the color of their skin. Should skin color or gender get me to the front of the line for government money (contracts, education, etc.)?

It's 2008. Not 1808. I can do this on my own, thank you.

in Affirmative-action defenders slam Jessica Peck Corry on The Colorado Independent
This type of 'publishing' is why voters are so ignorant.

A46 makes sense. It's 2008. I believe after seven Trillion dollars (actual expenditure) to 'end povery as we know it" we can finally, rationally, accept that we are not in need of quotas any longer.

Let's stop imprisoning all people with substandard labels. For God's sake.

in Colorado anti-affirmative action ballot measure to impact several programs on The Colorado Independent
HI:

Thanks for this possibly damaging information.

I think it is devastating and an insult that we cannot decide through affirmative action that Native Americans, Hispanics and blacks MUST be put at the head of the line in FRONT of evreyone else. Funding will dry up for these diversity programs if A46 passes! We all agree that we have to allow diversity to all non-whites and especially all women (white too!).

Isn't Connorly a black man? NO TO A46!
