, 19:26, February 6, 2008→"He has no clear personal achievement that cannot be explained as the likely result of affirmative action"
::::Let's say there's a young white guy, not bad-looking, but not all that original a thinker. His parent is a famous theocrat and a founder of the new Religious Right in the late 70s/early 80s. Despite his lack of original thinking and intelligence, he manages to get into an ivy league school, and despite that, his greatest accomplishment is a bizarre blogwiki hybrid on which he spreads hate and fear to children. Isn't that affirmative action?

::Aschlafly, you are starting to sound like the skinheads who sit around blaming Affirmative Action for all their woes. Oh, that's right, you blame the liberal bias of WikiPedia for all of yours. Seriously, the tone of this article needs to be changed. If you are in any way attempting to be "fair" and "unbiased," then listen here:
An assessment like "He has no clear personal achievement that cannot be explained as the likely result of affirmative action" is CLEARLY and OPINION rather than a fact. If I were to write that "George W. Bush has has no clear personal achivement that cannot be explained as the likely result of his father's political/business connections and the rich, white, old-boy network that secretly runs this country," you'd no doubt blast me for publishing opinion as fact, block me forthwith, and toot your own, supposedly "unbiased" horn and say that my statement was contrary to the facts. That seems to be a trend here at ConservaPedia.
The statement you have restored and stand by here seems far more appropriate on the editorial page of the eternally right-wing Wall Street Journal or in Rush Limbaugh's wrongheaded rant of the day. People will start calling you racist. Of course, I'm not, but anyone who's THINKING probably would. Is THINKING valued around here? Just curious.
