You know it's good to see someone mention our buddy Stalin. Ever bit as big monster as Hitler was. Why more isn't said about it amazes me to this day.

Sorry, I don't buy your comparison on Hitler and Obama. You might not like Obama but their actions as leaders are not in the same league.

Get some perspective please?

I wonder what they will name after Shrub who started a war based on a lie that has killed over 4k US troops and countless civilians?

Hell, there are lots of people who have issues with Jackson being on the $20 bill.

No matter the issue or personality there is some group somewhere that will be offended.

Personally I am offended by American Idol but...

Did paula spurn your advances too?:angel:

actually i ws not comparing them

i was pointing out the naming of the school being not up to the people in the neighborhood

i never said i hated obama [those are your words Lynann]

i find it ironic that anytime adolf is mentioned in the same subject context that barrack is mentioned in that obama supporters consider it a comparison of the two

which in reality (see thread in philosophy) of things means that the obama supporters are the ones comparing obama to hitler

and if you need that comparison what does that say about who supports obama

concept is not the same as subject matter

i am pretty sure it was meant for me

i am the one that used hitlers name in this thread

to point out that the people wanting to change the school name

should not be the reason for a name change

there should be other criteria involved

yes he was the first black president granted

but that in its self is not good enough at this time

but down the road it would be

to change the name now for the simple fact that he is black would be very racist

if they named a school after nixion in 1970 would it still be nmed after him in 1976

he was a great president to bad he was a ""crook"" per say

They named an airport after Regan and after what he did to the air traffic controllers that was not appropriate.

If the people in the neighborhood and the students want to name the school after obama or Mister Magoo it's their business and no one elses.


good point. I know of the airport but had not even thought of the implication thier.

It is almost like saying we are proud of a president who took away the right for a union to strike.

This has passed on to city workers and many other unions.

The middle class was done great harm in his decision.

people since have complained about unions and at the same time wanted the good paying union jobs.

Strikes are almost a thing of the past now.

How many picket lines have you seen in the last 20 years?

So honoring a historic first is racist?

I suppose there's some kind of -ist that could be applied to honoring Geo. Washington too

I realize the distinction between concept and subject matter.

Oh and to add to my random thoughts post. Tricky **** was not all bad. An examination of his presidency shows it was about more than just Watergate, the cover-up, the missing minutes of tape and all those other images that pop up when someone says Nixon.

History for most people boils down to little catch phrases like Nixon being Tricky **** or the Civil War being about slavery or Columbus sailing the ocean blue...history and life are seldom that simple.

the union brought it on themselves when they agreed to the no strike clause

see drew's earlier post

do not blame the action that was permitted by the union

if they agreed to no strike they broke the contract when they went on strike

thus no contract was in force
