govman, i have unresolved issues w/ affirmative action however to say the disparity in test scores on the SAT between races is due to minorities wanting to party as you alluded to and not some deeper issue makes you sound like a racist.

Where did you get that he said minorities want to party?? I could say the same thing about your post making you look like a member of the PC police, diligently sniffing out racism and scaring off realistic discussion (sorry to single you out here as others are obviously much more guilty of this than you).

I think liberals would understand the problem/hypocrisy with most of their "repairing unfairness" motives if they learned what incentives mean. And that AA, reparations, almost all welfare programs and progressive taxation remove the valuable incentives and motivation that less fortunate people need to have in order to pull themselves up by their bootstraps. I'm not talking about the past here, I'm talking about the future.
