The question I have not yet heard answered concerns competition for the opportunity to be educated at an Oregon University.  Will giving undocumented students in state tuition make it harder for a legal oregonian to obtain an education or a spot at the university?

This discussion makes me angry. What consenting adults do in privacy is not our business. Ask any of these vociferous accusers potentially embarrassing questions in public and they will lie too. A person is supposed to be innocent until proven guilty in our system, yet we continue to lynch in the press and the media with discussions like these. If there was a crime committed, I will be the first to call for his resignation. But lets keep these sickening gossip sessions to ourselves until such a thing has been proved.

We are so incredibly hypocritical about sexual behavior in this country. We allow marketers to shamelessly use it in their promotions. We subject our children to innapropriate sexual images daily. We look the other way when music stars cavort with minors ( or marry them like Elvis who still remains exaulted) Semi nude shots of 15 year old teen stars are considered art ( Mylie Cyrus).

I am disappointed in Think Out Loud
