And Where Does the Good Senator From Illinois

...stand on the "Uncle Tom" question? With his crazy...uncle?

..."For every one Oprah, a billionaire, you've got five million blacks who are out of work," he said. "For every one Colin Powell, a millionaire, you've got 10 million blacks who cannot read. For every one Condoskeeza [sic] Rice, you've got one million in prison. For every one Tiger Woods, who needs to get beat, at the Masters, with his cap-blazing hips, playing on a course that discriminates against women. For every one Tiger Woods, we got 10,000 black kids who will never see a golf course."
If you're well-educated, successful, black and angry (like Obama's wife), I guess you're okay. If you're well-educated, successful, black and just Secretary of State, you're not.

WTF? TEN MILLION black people who can't read? Hyperbole much?

But it's nice to see that he's also championing the cause of white women the world over, standing up against Augusta and stuff.

Obama. Wright. Shark. Jumped. Long ago.

I'm sorry, I was too busy jerking off into my massive wad of hundred dollar bills and wiping my ass with the copy of Faust I just finished reading for the fiftieth time. Did you say ten million illiterate blacks? Shouldn't they be african-american?! Shouldn't that be capitalized?! Damn my anglosaxon-latin-greek-andwhateverthehellelse background, it's made me racist!

I suddenly feel guilty and a need to pay a bunch of people restitution for something half of their ancestors didn't go through. ::shiver:: Wait, what was that line from Blazing Saddles that so eloquently illustrates race in the 1800s and early 1900s? Ah yes...."We'll take the niggers and the chinks, but we don't want the Irish". My Irish ancestors were treated like shit too! But I keep forgetting, they were still white, and that makes it all right.

Your humble hypocrite,
The Race Card

"Rev. Wright told his congregation that "the United States government has failed the vast majority of our citizens of African descent."

And there's your problem Reverend Whiteyhater. You and your flock of lazy half-wit idiots expect an entity who can't even keep their own books straight or budgets balanced to wipe your collective asses in perpetuity for you.


Morons.
