Well since we are going down the "profiling" path

We should have special screenings for white teachers and coaches since they have a greater incidence of committing sexual assault against kids. And so it goes...

Political Correctness Run Amok!!

If the races were reversed and we were talking about UVA, many whites would claim the homecoming queen's selection was POLITICAL CORRECTNESS OR AFFIRMATIVE ACTION RUN AMOK! I think that is exactly what her selection was about and the black students are justified in their criticism of the selection process. Or are they?? Whites and their ol' racial double standards.

I also think it's cute that this "politically-correct homecoming queen" thinks the President is her personal genie.

Silly woman.

These right-wing sh1t heads

These rightwing fuckwads are openly celebrating the loss of construction jobs and tourism in the Midwest. These creeps are rejoicing at the loss of American prestige in the world community and for what????

The Dems should make them pay for it by reminding the American people every single day that these cocksuckers would rather score political points than bring jobs to this country. This was a priority and I'm glad the President took the time to do this on top of all that's going on.

WTF???? Comparing nurses to Abercrombie & Fitch models

I'm sorry - I wouldn't want some underqualified white A&F or GAP wannabe model delivering my healthcare.

"Being able to communicate clearly in English is very important safety issue."

I agree starrs. You should try it.

Let me respond to the article....I would like conservatives to stop assuming that white people obtain employment based exclusively on merit. I think we can look around in our everyday environment and conclude that isn't always the case. Discrimination based on "mainstream" appearance is quite common.

Uh Oh

I guess white trolls hate Bill Cosby now. He was ok when he was lecturing to blacks but now....uh oh. I guess they will stop quoting him and start using Thomas Sowell now. Tom is a reliable good negro. I'm sure they continue to quote one line from one speech MLK made in Washington D.C., after all, he's dead.

Oh really??

"People went to minstrel shows because they liked to see what black people were like, many of whom had never seen such, and because it was good music and an entertaining show."

I suppose if one wanted to find out what white Americans are like, one could watch the Blue Collar Comedy Tour or Tool Academy on VH1. Right??

Sloppy, heh?

What is sloppy is giving a complete pass to people like the Sophie Tuckers and Al Jolsons for "cooning" their way to riches at the expense of blacks while not acknowledging that other whites during that time rejected this foolishness. Complex? Maybe, but not really. Pull your head out of your ass.

Sure, she can be a white feminist hero for white feminists

I'm sick of people with their "we can't hold historical figures up to modern standards" bullshit. Yes we can. There were whites who believed blacks were chattel and there were white who unpopularly and courageously challenged that garbage thinking like John Brown and other abolitionists. White jews, like Sophie Tucker, thought donning black makeup and calling herself "Queen of the Coons" in an effort to dehumanize and debase blacks for entertainment was appropriate. Other white jews were critical in the establishment of the NAACP.

"Birth of a Nation" was the most vile racist hatefilled piece of garbage to ever come out of Hollywood. I'm sure ignorant white liberals and conservatives alike want us to judge this bile by early 20th century cultural standards. No thanks.

I give no passes to people who are on the wrong side of history or human rights. I especially give no passes to Jews who should have known better in the earlier part of the 20th century.

Original article: Obama's healthcare horror

This is the Tammy Bruce "I'm a rightwinger masquarading as a reformed Democrat" Scam

Camille is a rightwing libertarian pretending to be a democrat in order to bash democrats to win plaudits from right-wingers. Its pretty obvious when she fawns over a bigot like Rush Limbaugh.

Good job.

Old "Page view" Paglia

A wizened crone who claims now to be a spiritual libertarian is making excuses for wh ite racists. The Gates affair was about governmental authority invading a man's home because said governmental authority didn't like his attitude. Switch Officer Fiction writer and Dr. Gate's races, ole Page view would be screeching about reverse racism!

Typical.

Obama is a coward

He will never get another dime or vote from me. He was right the first time. But he walked back his comments because like many black men, he is a coward. White people will cheer him on when he's talking tough to black audiences, but if that Ne gro steps out of his place and talk about Racial Profiling, you hypo crites trip. Obama can kiss it.

Now I am convinced

Now I am convinced that "feminism" is a term defined and used by silly vapid white women. If Angie can "have it all", I guess some call girls can "have it all" too.

The GOP practices TOKENISM not AFFIRMATIVE ACTION

Sarah Palin

Clarence Thomas

Michelle Steele

and so on...

I want to see test scores and transcripts for the following caucasians;

Ann (or Andrew) Coulter

Newt Gringrich

Rush Limbaugh

Karl Rove

and others.

Based on what we've heard, I'm not so sure these people are smart enought to be admitted to or matriculate through an accredited university. While we are at it, let's make all college admissions and certain hiring records public. I think the results might surprise some bigots and confirm things most people of color already know.

Original article: In your face, Nancy Pelosi

Ok so now is it ok...

to joke about Rush's drug habit and obsession with anuses;

to call Gov. Palin a pig in lipstick, and

to talk about Mitt Romney's magic underwear?

Timid white liberals, what did you expect

White liberals outraged over a joke at the expense of a guy who said on his radio show that President Obama gave Prime Minister Brown "anal poisoning" tells me more about these phoney white liberals and their outrage is more offensive to me than Ms. Sykes' joke. Where are all to outrageous anti-PC cries from the white MSM?????????? Oh that's right, that for jokes aimed at minorities.
