I can't laugh at someone because they're mulatto? It's not my fault his name is comical. If Rudolph Guliani's middle name was Mussulini, or Hillary Clinton's middle name was Evaperon, would that be off limits to laugh at? Of course not.

I find it interesting that you emphasis B. Hussein O.'s Muslim middle name in a story about his membership of a Christian church. Actually, scratch the 'interesting'. I find it funny. How much more clearly could you highlight your prejudices?

Guess what? The woman I pay for sex is pregnant with twins, and we are going to name them Herbert and Elmer.
Unless they're boys, then we're going to name them A stick.

It's Herbert. And Herbert is almost as bad a name as Elmer.

It is sad when people "try" to be funny. It hardly ever works and instead of laughs, all we get are embarrassed silences.

"I have never beloged to fewer than four of the listed groups"
You were in the Our Gang? Which one were you, Porky or Froggie?

Herbert? Are you serious? The only reason I voted for him was because I assumed the H stood for Hitler.

Speaking of lame, what's the idea of putting up a poll asking which "hate" groups I belong to, misspelling the name of the Democratic Party, and limiting me to a single choice? During the last half-century I have never beloged to fewer than four of t

And how do you feel about G. Herbert W. Bush? And why do you think his middle name is of any interest? Anyway, Herbert is at least as lame a name as Hussein.

I don't have a problem with B. Hussein Obama belonging to a racialist church, I'm interested in exploring the double standard.

If this post is the worst that the right can say about Sen. Obama, he looks better all the time.

Because they won't marry whites?
Umm, no.
Because the link to the church asked its members to eschew the middle class.
I read the links before I post comments on stories.
Well, once in a while, anyway.

Thanks. I join you in your confusion. I read that sentence a couple times and figured that I must be missing something.

At least I now know why there aren't more black people in the middle class.
Because they won't marry whites? I know I must have read that wrong.

You got all that from a black girl with an assertive message on her tee? What message would have gotten from a middle-aged woman wearing a tee with "I'm With Asshole" printed on it?
Frankly, I've never been bothered by all those messages for minor

I'm not offended by that woman's t-shirt. Even if one accepts that there should be non-discrimination in employment, to me it's ridiculous to extend that to marriage, as if one is obligated to give equal weight to every potential mate regardless of origin

I don't see this as offensively racist, unless it reflects a clear antipathy toward other races. Things like "Commitment to the [White/Black] Family" and "Adherence to the [White/Black] Work Ethic" are a long, long way from "Refusal to Hire [Black/Wh

I think we can safely say that a Republican candidate who belonged to the White equivalent of TUCC would not be tolerated.
What about Romney? zing!
More seriously, the professional pantsshitting going on over Romney's announcement

I was in Atlanta a few years ago, and while traveling on their tram system, found myself standing beside a young (in her 20s) black woman wearing a T-shirt that listed pledges like "I will only marry a black man"...
But basically there's a difference be
