Well, that was easy. Of course you are likely too stupid to be able to comprehend that simple difference, but ah well.
ahh, but you can fire someone for not having sex with you. you just have to be intelligent enough to give a different reason, or no reason at all.
if they can prove the firing was illegal, which is highly unlikely, they may get a monetary settlement or if it's a civil service job, they may get their job back.
you ever been to the real world?  So you acknowledge that there is a difference then? Good, congratulations on acknowledging reality.
We were talking about the law, not about how hard or easy it is to prove the laws been broken. But nice attempt at backtracking there though.
no, i'm not, but feel free to declare victory and run along.

Care to guess again? |

Care to guess again? Did you ever consider that maybe you're just too easy of a target to pass up??? |

Of course waiting to see if there are VALID reasons for replacing these people isn't part of this latest witchhunt. Imagine that. Yeah, I'm sure there are.  Funny how stuff is 'now coming out' to discredit him, and people like you and your fellow libs will eat it up and spew it everywhere you go as fact. Someday that tactic is going to stop working or backfire, just because you say something over and over again doesn't make it fact. The lemmings on the left are very predictable tho, all the elite have to do is get it out there on the right blogs and it spreads like wildfire and none of you give a damn as to whether there's any truth to any of it, you'll just continue to spread it. You people are seriously funny. You act as though the rabid rightie Obama haters never would dream of making mountains out of molehills, taking a snippet of information and building an ENTIRE case for chattering heads 24/7. Hilarious, simply fucking hilarious. Did I just see the word HYPOCRITE applied to "Obamabots-or-whatever" just a moment ago posted in BIG FONT?! May I suggest you fools make the word in the biggest font available, cut it out and paste it onto a mirror and then on your fucking refrigerators. |

And as to the smears Obama has put out on Walprin being "confused" and maybe even senile? No dice, he passed the test on that just yesterday.
And even if so, Jillian, he now has a ADA claim does he not? Yes, he does. Not to sway from the topic, but when you consider Biden is your VP, they have a lot of nerve implying Walprin maybe be confused and even senile. So may we presume you have some sort of proof for that asinine comment? Oh my, did something "leak out" about Biden that's now making the rounds of the right-wing blogosphere?? |

Under the Americans with Disabilities act, dementia and senility -- and even AGE -- are protected. The employer is required to attempt to make accommodations. This applies to the hiring process as well as to the termination process.
Here's an account of the firing, from Walprin himself: Gerald Walpin speaks: The inside story of the AmeriCorps firing | Washington Examiner
Here's Hot Air's take on the test, not that you'll read it or watch the video: Hot Air » Blog Archive » Sweet: Glenn Beck gives Gerald Walpin a senility test
I know none of you Obamaphiles really care what Obama does. That's a given. But my own optimism of the human being allows me to at least try to get your brain cells working again. Because I am optimistic that you still have them, somewhere in the foggy haze of Obama cult worship. How stupid. I don't suppose it occurred to Glenn Beck that Mr. Walpin might have been SOBER when he took the silly test, and a little tipsy during meetings. He wanted to work from home? Hmmm... Why? Does Beck even remember that he once didn't know the time of day?
Here's another news flash: Early Alzheimers patients would also be able to pass such a childish test.
There's more to this story than meets the eye[balls] of Glenn Beck and the other foxhounds. Seriously. Just because someone can pass an ADA test, that means they are competent to be an IG?    I guess I COULD make the case that Mr. Walpin didn't seem to know what day it was (part of the test), but hey, he identified a watch as a watch, so he's fine according to Mr. Expert, although short-term memory loss is a significant symptom of early Alzheimers. |

Biden can run circles around anything the Republicans have to offer. He calls a spade a spade and kicks ass Truman style. So what? I thought you guys preferred blunt talk rather than practiced propaganda. |
