Fox news reported a few weeks ago that Nancy Pelosi was holding up a bill that would
protect employers from being sued for having a english speaking
standard for hiring. So if you don't speak a word of english and you
are not hired because of it, you would not be able to sue for
discrimination. But, Nancy says 'bullsh__'. Employers have no right to
establish hiring standards in regards to language! Why do you think
that Muslim workers at Walmart won't sell you pork because it's against
their religion to handle it. Mrs. Pelosi says "not only can they
dictate what they will or won't sell, but now they don't even have to
explain it to you in English".
Look, there are plenty of jobs out
there that don't require English to perform them well, but there are
plenty others that do. Who best to decide between the two than the
business' themselves who's very existence relies on prudent
decisions like hiring? I haven't heard anything lately on the bill, I guess I need to look it up, I've just been too caught up in the debates.
Just another example of a woman in politics who really
should be home knitting a sweater. What the hell are the citizens of
Ca. smoking, to continue to vote her back to Washington DC.?
The
real scary part is if she is joined by a woman President, this whole
country is destined to completely fall apart should that actually
happen.
The price of poker is certainly going up next week.
I'm not comforted in the least knowing that the fate of our country
actually lies in the hands of people in the east and the south. You
east coast folks really don't appear to be all that bright. But, that's the risk every four years, so here we go again.
I hope the Pats win the Super Bowl, I want someone to unseat those old Dolphins. Besides that, I hate the Giants.
I predict Pats 38, Giants 17.
