I'm 100% wrong because you can't google and click the first half dozen results? I'm sorry you don't know any decent news media sources to reference and find out what's going on. Please take note of your level of awareness.
"Why Obama Wants Control of the Census "
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123423384887066377.html?mod=googlenews_wsj
- - - - -President Obama said in his inaugural address that he planned to "restore science to its rightful place" in government. That's a worthy goal. But statisticians at the Commerce Department didn't think it would mean having the director of next year's Census report directly to the White House rather than to the Commerce secretary, as is customary. "There's only one reason to have that high level of White House involvement," a career professional at the Census Bureau tells me. "And it's called politics, not science."
The decision was made last week after California Rep. Barbara Lee, chair of the Congressional Black Caucus, and Hispanic groups complained to the White House that Judd Gregg, the Republican senator from New Hampshire slated to head Commerce, couldn't be trusted to conduct a complete Census. The National Association of Latino Officials said it had "serious questions about his willingness to ensure that the 2010 Census produces the most accurate possible count."

Funny how the guy who doesn't estimate/sample is the guy who can't give accurate numbers; it's the ones who have no problem making up numbers who we should depend on!"Obama shifts Census oversight, triggering angry protest by Republicans"

- - - - -The move would shift the chain of command with the bureau and the Commerce Department, where the bureau currently resides. It comes after the Congressional Black Caucus, National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials and other groups expressed displeasure with Obama's nominee for Commerce secretary, Republican Sen. Judd Gregg of New Hampshire.

So he's not just a hypocrite when he talks about transparency, but also when he talks about bipartisanship.
- - - - -Gregg, the groups said this week, opposed efforts to secure emergency funding for the 2000 Census, which they asserted exposes a potential lack of commitment to ensuring that hard-to-reach minority populations are properly accounted for in the 2010 census.
A White House spokesman confirmed Thursday that Obama plans to work closely with the bureau, which will remain within the Commerce Department.- - - - -
Oh he'll make sure they're counted. Or not "counted," certainly not, but a bigger than accurate number will be given to them to ensure that they are represented!I'm sure I could find more sources. Some of you are having trouble. My advice is, just don't vote or post if you have no idea what's going on.
er....why exactly do you think I was talking to you when there were 3 posts between the one you made and the one I made? lol
er.... do you have any proof of this because from what I see on the news, papers and internet, you're 100% wrong =/
I have studied this for about 5 years now, and I can say there is no millions and billions in the proofs that can be examined and called anywhere near accurate!
Your covering again for your immaturity. How old are you, no insult meant, but meant to help you understand that there are things you should not claim without reading in full the opposite side's views (Something I do, but others do not)
rofl
Flint I'm closing this thread as spam. Try starting a thread that actually has some support to it.
lol Yeah me neither.
lol Han
avo who are you talking to? If you're talking to WFS then I think you mean to say, "No, it wasn't." If it was flint, then shouldn't it be "No, he didn't"?
I suppose it doesn't matter much since on either counts you're wrong in both your response and how you worded it =p
I don't read anything flint posts that is longer than 4 sentences anymore because usually nothing he says is true. The "facts" he posts are either extremely biased or have nothing to support it. He doesn't even label something as an opinion, just what he says is a fact. It's pretty much a waste of life.
omg!
lol Funny thread. Anyway, I don't like racism. No matter where the racism is originated. Justinian/SD were pretty much on point ![]()
Erm, weren't you retiring?
Yes, soon
oh, yeah I should've also mentioned that you're not restricted to just SD. You can play SD as well as any other galaxy
This is just a notice that a new Sagittarius Dwarf round will be opening in the coming days. It will be a 3 man family, 6 week hardcore round, last man standing with the ability to draft friends. In order to help us properly adjust the settings to create a fun atmosphere for all, please take a minute to post here saying whether or not you're interested.
Please only post if you're going to be ACTIVE. We'd prefer not to have 20 families of players who are only going to log in once a day and not communicate with their family members. It takes away from the competitiveness for the people who actually are active.
Thanks in advance ![]()
lol When the first post in a new thread is extremely flawed, I don't think it should be responded to =p
er...there's a lot of stuff that isn't true in this thread lol
lol well there's nothing else to say then =p
In any case, gonna get some food. That's more interesting than this ![]()
lol funny thread
he didn't say he was insulted....
lol Did I say how I felt about anything? Umm, no. I don't agree with what cloud is saying but I understand where he's coming from.
But I won't claim to understand europeans and how they feel about Americans because I'm not European. I'm not going to claim that I understand why some people don't believe in God because I do. I mean, theoretically we can speculate and analyze but you can't understand a person until you walk in their shoes. Native Americans, Asians, rich people, poor people, women, men, gay, etc. . Analyze and dissect my statement all you want but everyone has their own perils.
Unless skoe, avo, you guys can say that you know what its like to be gay?
lol lethal, glue... and primo said I was just talking bs lol
lol not exactly, you could take it that way if you like though.
This isn't a subject that's gonna get unbiased discussion. If you're not of a certain race, class or religion, etc. you're not going to understand them. Its just as simple as that.
lol even if the last play was ruled incomplete pass, I doubt that they would've made a TD throw in 9 seconds against the steelers secondary.
But yeah, hats off to the cards. They just really need to get some defense and a power running back. Their game is completely one dimensional.
you lethal and glue =p
