I have completely lost all total respect for him... omfg -_-;;; And I love the little "nudgenudge" thing he did with "see you PoC freak out so much and get all angry when ppl talk about racism, but when a PoC talked about racism, did us white ppl freak out? NO! We were calm and rational and stuff..

Wright made his famous statements, the GOP waited in the wings for the full-blown campaign, but Senator Clinton's campaign made a few oblique references to it. In the waning weeks of the campaign, every GOP commercial referenced the "G-d @#$@# America" comment made by Wright and performed the guilt-by-association ascribed to Black politicians.<BR/><BR/>Also, in the wake of Rev. Wright, there was a movement that spawned called "PUMA" (or Party Unity My @$$), in which mostly white wealthy women (notably Lady de Rothschild) openly dumped on Obama for alleged slights and supported McCain, even though he has denigrated Senator Clinton AND her daughter in the past, as well as his many issues with Women and women-specific issues.<BR/><BR/>Third, Sarah Palin started making references to Obama "Palling around with Terrorists" and other incendiary remarks against a sitting (Black) US politician running for the highest office of the land, <B>without any credible evidence AND failing to report these "alleged" crimes to the police</B>. The number of death threats against Senator Obama and his family skyrocketed. The Obama campaign became the first to receive a full Secret Service detachment during a political campaign because of the threats against his life and that of his family.<BR/><BR/>Plus, when Senator Obama made the remark that his grandmother (who is White) was a typical white person when it comes to race issues, other White commentators excoriated Obama for "throwing his grandmother under the bus."<BR/><BR/>Also, if PAD really wants to go there, there is the Don Imus calling the Rutgers Women's Basketball team "Nappy-Headed Hos." In an attempt to deflect the criticism that was growing in the aftermath, <I>every single white male political and non-political pundit rushed to Imus' defense, using the tried and true, "Black men do it, too!" - as well as the ever popular, "He was just kidding, and trying to be 'hip'!"</I><BR/><BR/>And, footnote: I stopped taking PAD seriously after he attempted to destroy the character of John Henry Irons in his Supergirl comic book run (Issue 23 in the late 1990s).<BR/><BR/>So, cry me a river, Mr. David.<BR/><BR/>Oh, and go feed a steak to a hungry Bengal Tiger.Heavy Armorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12753726301435923033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4506995090336963455.post-85050186215864011992009-03-05T16:35:00.000-05:002009-03-05T16:35:00.000-05:00I'm really dissapointed in PAD.

(I'm not good on the imaginative curse front).<BR/><BR/>Willow I know that you have issues with identifying as a feminist, so I'm wondering <BR/>if the following comment was directed at you:<BR/><BR/>"How about your tendency to define everything in feminist terms? ..... By trying to slap anti-feminism on anything that you find disagreeable, you're playing TO the stereotype."<BR/><BR/>If it was, that's chuckle inducing. And either way, I think we should define everything in feminist terms (so long as said feminism includes every women and not just white rich women) because dammit, otherwise you exclude 51% of the world's population.<BR/>I also wasn't aware that anyone taking issues with gender problems should also be ensuring that they do so in an acceptable-to-white-men-way. Cos hey, god forbid we point out their failings.

Her discussion of YJ's issues with him is lost to history, since it occurred after caps were taken.<BR/><BR/>So add to that list of brain maggots "spiteful mischaracterization of fan arguments when said fans are not willing to buckle on feminist issues, particularly when the source argument is no longer available".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
