US born and raised leading female TV journalist for CBS Connie Chung behaves everything American and not Asian.<BR/><BR/>How about trying to submit it to the "Te Herald" in case they would be interested. They ("Te Herald") have published one of your articles in the past about 'getting rid of RMA' , so I assume that they will have a look at this one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11906042.post-1154299651260582562006-07-31T10:47:00.000+12:002006-07-31T10:47:00.000+12:00Excellent posting.

Nothing new really, just the premise that one's ideas [culture] are genetically determined, and therefore all of equal value. Such racists see any criticism of 'cultures' as a racist attack. The racism is however in their own premises. As you say Scott, Hitler would have agreed with the premise.<br /><br />Such nonsense enjoys widespread support amoung academics, especially in education, so I agree PC, I doubt 'Te Herald' would run your article.<br /><br />KenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11906042.post-1154264140677526842006-07-31T00:55:00.000+12:002006-07-31T00:55:00.000+12:00You really think 'Te Herald' would run this?You really think 'Te Herald' would run this?Peter Cresswellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10699845031503699181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11906042.post-1154298571553232802006-07-31T10:29:00.000+12:002006-07-31T10:29:00.000+12:00Smart Growth leads to unaffordable housing which l...Smart Growth leads to unaffordable housing which leads to overcrowding which leads to party houses which leads to kahui killings.<BR/>So let's blame the ARC.<BR/>It makes more sense.Owen McShanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10130002581563595646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11906042.post-1154296847038880752006-07-31T10:00:00.000+12:002006-07-31T10:00:00.000+12:00One of your best, PC.In light of all these excuses...One of your best, PC.<BR/><BR/>In light of all these excuses, was there any mention of the police being any closer to actually arresting somebody in the Kahui case?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11906042.post-1154281753444577332006-07-31T05:49:00.000+12:002006-07-31T05:49:00.000+12:00Absolutely brilliantly put.

The notion that race makes people "different" is the same quackery that Hitler propagated. <BR/><BR/>The fundamental point being quite right - how you act is a choice. <BR/><BR/>You have no choice as to how others act towards you, but you can choose your response.Libertyscotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12741049550997300680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11906042.post-1154278219356177582006-07-31T04:50:00.000+12:002006-07-31T04:50:00.000+12:00People ARE all the same!
