Reverse discrimination now, eh? Well, that warped argument did work down here in Texas. Let's see, Dubya is from Texas . . .

The system is loaded against minorities in many subtle ways. Standardized tests are a classic example. And those are issued in public schools and are used for ranking students before they ever get to the university playing field. Affirmative Action was intended to level out some of the bias those tests create when it comes to college admissions. All those tests show is that white children do best on tests written by white administrators.

I can't believe people aren't paying closer attention to the mess George left down here in Texas before they start promoting his cock-eyed programs on the national level. He and his out-of-the-same-cookie-cutter successor in office spent the state into a nearly $10 billion shortfall in the last legislature. There was originally a surplus when he came to office.
