U.S. history textbooks could soon be flavored heavily with Texas conservatism

You're just a whiney little douchebag cunt, aren't you? Why, yes you are!
You're a class act DoucheMachine.

And Brie has run out of debate yet again......



You lost your curveball, and any speed you ever had on the fastball man.

Time to hang up the cleats.

wow

Thomas Jefferson no longer included among writers influencing the nation’s intellectual origins. Jefferson, a deist who helped pioneer the legal theory of the separation of church and state, is not a model founder in the board’s judgment.

I'm just absolutely stunned by this... Speechless....

I didn't realize 'I hope your family is killed' was debating.

Brilliant!

The mass genocide usually comes under the Chapter "How the West was Won." Stronger cultures have conquered weaker ones since the beginning of man. That's just how it is. Deal with it.

Weaker culture??

The White European culture has been on this continent for about 500 years and have totally shit all over it. I think the previous dominant cultures did a much better job taking care of the place. BTW, why don't you call up Custer down in Hell and ask him how "weak" their culture was?

As for the slavery....blame the British and Dutch, it was started on their watch and ended under ours. Besides, find me a textbook that the issue of slavery isn't a major 19th Century issue.

If it had ended without resulting in a "Civil War" that killed over 600,000 Americans, I doubt it would even be mentioned. Certainly not in the new TexASS textbooks.

I see I got under your skin again. Sucks to be you.

"Denial" is NOT just a river in Egypt...

I see I got under your skin again. Sucks to be you.

Keep telling yourself that...

Amazing. You continuously get your ass handed to you daily by pretty much everyone here, yet you still prattle on
"It's just a fleshwound!"




Give it up.

[thome]

You guys crack me up.

I have been alive for 10 thousand years my time spans the concepts of reality and is eternal as the mountains and the sky.

Ask me anything you want to ....

I will tell you what you wanna hear, the History you need to hear, the only way -You- will understand it, what you want to hear.


Thye Oracle of thome is open.

We'd be in a lot better shape if schools taught Math, Language, and actual science instead of "Social" Studies, Muticulturalism, liberalism, conservatism and other brainwashing..
Who knows? We might even wind up with a society that can think for themselves as well as compete in the Global Market.

According to Brie, it happens all the time, just deal with it.....

Or do we only care that it happens to someone else



How "Christian" of Brie, don't you think?

[binnie]

One example, I think it's changed now,but when I was at school there was no Scottish history taught, only post union British history.

I don't think that was accidental...

Not too sure if it has changed in English schools - most people have no idea about the union of 1707, even the undergraduates I teach. How the plantations and the Troubles aren't on the curriculum in British schools is beyond me aswell.

That being said, a lot of work has been done concerning the history of slavery in British schools over the last few years, so the 'selective' nature might be moving in the right direction.

So let me get this straight... Somebody says something batshit crazy like that...and the best response you can think of is, "i hope your family dies too!!"

Well, shit...that's some crazy "debating" skills you have there, Lounge. You obviously missed your calling to be an attorney. Or a rocket scientist. Or something!

So now you think Brie's post was "bat-shit crazy" ?

And I like how you put my words in QUOTES, yet I didn't say that.

Here's my exact quote, Mr. Debater

:

deal with it?

Hope you and your family are wiped out in the name of "winning the west' sometime.

asshat

Context is everything, learn to argue the facts....

IF Brie claims that it is perfectly okay for entire cultures to be virtually wiped out because another culture comes along and thinks it's okay, then one must wonder how Brie would feel if HIS family was on the short end of the stick.

I'm against ANY population being wiped out by ANY other population, regardless of superior firepower, get it?



I doubt it.

[Blackflag]

Here's my exact quote, Mr. Debater

Oh, I see...you didn't say they should be killed. You said they should be "wiped out." Brilliant distinction! You proved me wrong there.

Genius argument, Lounge. GENIUS!!

Again, you clearly missed your calling...

[LoungeMachine]

Oh, I see...you didn't say they should be killed. You said they should be "wiped out." Again, you clearly missed your calling...

in the name of winning the west



I love how you must take words of context to make yourself feel less wrong.... :D

But hey, you already admitted Brie's comment was "bat-shit crazy"

[LoungeMachine]

Again, you clearly missed your calling...

Not at all....

See, posting on a meesage board isn't "my calling"

But my career and my small company are.



I'm here for laughs, you're here to make yourself feel less of a failure.

:D

Well Done, Son!
