Negro is not racist, sorry. It is in bad taste and not PC. But many fewer things are PC today. Welcome to 10 years ago.
 
Hehe...

Obama should run with it. Hold a press conference and thank the writer for his plaudits, but remark that he's not 100% on it and would likely prefer *Eddie Murphy* SEXUAL CHOCOLATE!!!*Eddie Murphy*



Bam! Invisible saxophone! 😉

looks like the "magic" is working then, according to that article
The only magic is see is in what you substituted for reason in reaching that conclusion.

Are you saying the writer is wrong in his opinion?

I'm saying that if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck it's a duck and neither what you think you see, or some intellectual who gets paid to fill up pages dreams up to impress himself has anything whatsoever to do with what duck walk and duck looks are to me. A white duck a black duck a greed duck a pink duck is a duck is a duck is a duck. The article writer looked to me, however, to be some sort of solipsistic sucker and not a duck at all.
 
This should be a major outrage, as far as Sharpie and Jackson are concerned. That L.A. Times writer, needs to be rubbed out of his career, and bannished from journalism forever, aka, Imus style. 😉


On a finer note, it's about time people stopped walking on PC eggshells. People hear buzz words, which are just words, and get all offended.

I'm not so sure it's that people are getting offended. I think it's more like people are ACTING like they are offended.

 
Oh, no! Let's all cry about it and pretend it ruined our year and call for his being fired and, oh hell, let's mutiliate this guy on public tv.
