Are you guys catching the latest news? McCain is getting hammered about claiming that the surge was what caused the Sunni Awakening in Anbar Province – even thought the Awakening began 6 months before the surge began. Not only that, Keith Olbermann reported that for some strange reason the gaff was edited out of the Katie Couric interview and an answer to a different question was inserted in its place.

McCain is also getting blazed by – I kid you not – JOE KLEIN about claiming Obama would rather win an election than win a war.

Let's put it this way – it ain't a term of endearment, even when used by us black folk.

Thanks for resurrecting Andrea “I am so jacked that Mr. Obama won't let ME in on every iota of his trip!” Mitchell. Now I offered her a WING SEAT on Mr. Obama's BRAND NEW TRICKED OUT AIRCRAFT!! Her choice! Sit inside and SHUT UP or grab a WING SEAT and talk your head off!

craig: I was away, but I have to chime in re Tara “I am such a white girl in Black skin who wants to stay as far away from the Obama's as I can so nobody will accuse me of being 'one of them' Wall.
A close second is the Rev. Joe “I'm articulate so I can speak against Mr. Obama and distance myself from him 'cause I have a following” Watkins.
Whew! (deep breaths!)

msmartin: I dont' know what's goin' on with david. He appears to be morphing right befor our eyes. I guess I haven't seen him in a week, BUT he's developing ATTITUDE against Mr. Obama; and I ain't likin' it one bit!!!
Further, if it is his age, then “whycome” he would want “mcANCIENT” to pretend to be the prez?? I know. It's the “OLD WHITE BOY'S CLUB SYNDROME”!!

I'll have to look into that one — I guess I mostly follow what's in the Globe, which is “Curtis” and “Jumpstart.” I rather like Jumpstart — the cartoonist is kind of traditional, even conservative in his view of relationships, but on the other hand he's also got realistic characters and families.

“Herb & Jamaal” has always struck me as somewhere on par with “The Family Circus,” but I feel bad saying that out loud.

It's been 2 weeks (with 1 week in between to hate on Pixar — I think this is the only guy in the world who hates Wall-E)… I'm not holding out much hope here.

I just find his portrayal of the Asian kid pretty, um, chinky.

Of course, Curtis himself and his big lips eating buckets of chicken isn't knocking down any stereotype walls either.

Nobody can call me a nigger

Well, I can't argue with that!

I really don't care about Elisabeth – I know who she is. I care more about us using the very name that was created to demean us in the most dispicable way imaginable – how could they.

I don't understand how some can be so ignorant that in the same breath that they say things are unequal, also say I can call myself a nigger if I want to.

I am not a nigger. It is not okay to call me a nigger. Nobdody can call me a nigger, I am not okay with that and I resent Whoopi and others for saying it's okay. I don't want to be seen as someone who says that nigger is okay for any reason.
