Fortunately, the heroism and valor of the Tuskegee airman stands above and beyond their being conveniently name dropped from time to time.

DT....I can't watch the video here on my work computer. Please.........PLEASE tell me that wasn't said regarding the Tuskegee airmen on the video

Nobody's really that ignorant....are they?

Steve TUSKAHEEGEE Conn. The syphilis of the DFT. I like that. Watch the video post on this thread. You'll get it.

Please stop using "socialist radical" as a slur for Conn. I am a socialist and a pretty hardened trade unionist and he has nothing to do with true radical politics. This guy and his wife don't represent socialism.

DetroitT, I sincerely hope he fails at his bid. I can imagine that you are frightened, there must be away around this guy if he wins.

I believe he was referring to the Tuskegee Experiment [[which was a controversial study of the progression of untreated syphilis), not the Tuskegee Airmen [[a squadron of black pilots in WWII).

Either way I'm not sure what his point is.

[DetroitTeacher]

Yes, he said Tuska-heegee, not Tuskegee. I would not vote for Conn if he were the last person running. No one I have spoken with is voting for him. We like our jobs and with Conn at the helm, we all feel that someone will fire us all and hire contractors! He's just far too radical and will cause the entire DFT to be canned.

If Conn wins, I'll opt out of DFT and not be associated with them.
