Re: * "accurate" is defined as utterly false.
Re: He didn't say it was false. He said it sounds inaccurate.

And what is your definition of "utterly false" ? Click "Click to expand..." ^
Here's my point... Do ya'll recognize the difference between a subjective "sounds" and an objective "is"?

Geez... I'm not just trying to make up reasons to defend LG, but he said that that "sounds" utterly false to him. i.e. He doesn't believe it. And because he said that he doesn't believe it, he's being asked to defend an objective claim that he never made.
 
No you won’t

He gets dumber every time he is up there and he's already on the handicap spectrum so that's saying something. Everything he says is just one dumb thing after another.
Having read your posts, I respect that you have a unique understanding as to what qualifies as mentally handicapped stupidity.
 
Pelosi’s Coronavirus Stimulus Bill Mentions ‘Diversity’ 32 Times

1,100-page bill would force all corporations receiving aid to fund 'inclusion initiatives' for at least 5 years

The word "diversity" appears 32 times in the coronavirus relief bill House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) unveiled on Monday. Pelosi released her plan as critics questioned the priorities of Democratic lawmakers facing the China-caused pandemic.

Senate Democrats voted Sunday to block a coronavirus stimulus package worth up to $1.8 trillion, and continued voting down procedural motions on the bill Monday. Democrats in the upper chamber were reportedly upset that the legislation does not do enough to increase fuel-emissions standards for the airline industry or to provide additional tax credits to promote wind and solar energy.

The Pelosi bill focuses on "diversity," for example, more than one might expect from an emergency economic relief package. The plan includes a section on "Improving Corporate Governance Through Diversity" that aims to "ensure that corporate boards reflect the diversity and perspectives of the communities and consumers impacted by the hardships due to the coronavirus disease." The word "inclusion" appears 14 times in the text of the bill.

One section of the House Democratic bill, titled "Diversity Report," would establish a congressional oversight panel requiring any corporation that receives federal aid related to coronavirus to provide "diversity data" to congress. The panel would publish a report on its findings the following year.

The required data would include demographic information about the corporation's employees and board members in terms of "race, gender, and ethnic identity." The panel would also demand demographics data on the corporation's suppliers, service providers, consultants, and the various financial institutions utilized by the company.

The "Diversity Report" section also requires companies to compare the salaries of employees based on gender and race and furnish information on the "number of staff and budget dedicated to diversity and inclusion initiatives."

Furthermore, the House bill states that all corporations receiving federal aid "must maintain officials and budget dedicated to diversity and inclusion initiatives for no less than 5 years after disbursement of funds."

The House, meanwhile, is not even in session right now. It would not be able to cast votes on the legislation in the coming days, so any bipartisan deal on a stimulus package is almost certain to be hammered out in the Senate.

Pelosi's decision to inject herself into the conversation had even the talking heads on MSNBC asking, "What was the point of that?" and warning that Democrats risk "overreaching" by demanding left-wing policy items that are "not a part of the coronavirus crisis."

Just shoot me a link to the bill and let's see if you're right.
A guy who read it and votes on it is the source. Its time for you to quit being a cuck to the Democrats and accept it.

Even if you had the bill, you wouldnt be able understand it accurately. Youd inject it with your partisan world view.
 
Well I caught something boys. Right now it's just a fever at 102. And it hit fast. Called one of the helps lines. They told me to self quarantine unless things get worse. Going to call my MD in the morning.

This should be fun.

Achy and chilly to go with fever. No cough. No noticable shortness of breath, and I actually feel pretty energized. No pain or tightness in my chest. No other signs of respiratory gunk.

Thanks. I pulled up the link. Cannot immediately see the part that deals with corporate board diversity, though. And its 1100 pages. Can you direct me to that section or pages?

Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure what order the symptoms come in. Could be the virus or a number of other things. Get some rest, feel better, and keep us posted.
 
This.

It was like when Autism became a thing. Diagnoses shot thru the roof, because of awareness. Not because it just all of a sudden ramped up out of nowhere.
Autism is a catch all for when they don’t know how else to diagnose someone. I have an autistic son and it’s funny because we’ve had tests that say he is mild to moderate and others say he is moderate to severe. There’s no consistency to the testing or the diagnosis but you are certainly right about awareness. It’s just like when you buy a new car of a certain make or model you suddenly see them everywhere.

Go look at it and search for "diversity" and it comes up 32 times. I just did it but you have to go to the link to search in the pdf.

 
What's the effing hurry? There shouldn't be a rush to pass this bill. besides he virus is a hoax, it is under control, it's going to disappear and everyone is just panicking.

Take your time (at least one or two weeks) and hammer out a bill that might be helpful. No one knows how things are going to look in two weeks. But I'll bet we have a clearer picture then.

I'm not call for a bill to be passed yesterday but giving politicians more time doesnt increase their IQ.
