What liberal media!?

Obama's neighborhood rich in diversity

[...] a mix of black and white residents who are wealthy, well-educated and liberal-leaning. [...]

Y'know, I've been trying for years to figure out what people mean when they use the word "diversity."

And golly gee--it's not at all what I thought!

Gee Terry, next you'll be complaining that Stalinism to Trotskyism doesn't actually cover the full political spectrum from "S" to "T."

How many kids in that neighborhood do you think might have been bussed to a more economically diverse school?

I had a bad case of the trotskies one time.

As for bussing, I'm sure all children are given a good, equal education, regardless of whether their parents are but simple millionaires, or multimillionaires.

When comes the revolution we'll eat strawberries and cream, sure, but you'll still have to wash the berries! Posted by: Ed Flinn at July 24, 2007 08:25 AM

Also, be careful when you get burritos from a street vendor.

I just wonder what GS level or the state/ local/education equivalent would be for for that mix of black and white residents who are wealthy, well-educated and liberal-leaning folks?

Just a hunch, but there's probably not a GS classification that high.
