She probably is an idiot but mostly a fabricated one, the kind that has writers that tell her to shout controversial stuff in order to make people angry. The republicans have their ones , the democrats have guys like Michael Moore.

I wont go so far as judging their personal intellect because i think that they're not real, they're an act put on to create noise.

As usual everything you just said I agree with. 100% Controversy is key with alot of those groups. Regardless mind you, if it's genuine.

Sleep is right again, from what I have seen anyway....It seems like this generally does go hand in hand. Maybe not with ALLLL of these fuckers but it certain looks like it. Also, some of these people I have met do seem to be so ignorant they honestly do not understand the otherside and can't comprehend how it is wrong at all. That does shock me. Very one sided.

But these people cannot comprehend this. Because racism is what blinds them. Sure I know there were some who did the "he is black let's vote for him" only routine. I met them. I don't need anyone to tell me this. But I also have met some who voted for him solely because he was a Dem. Not so ironically a majority of the last few voted for Dems before most of the time, and only voted for Bush the second time because they wanted him to finish the war.


Then people mention PhD's being AN issue.


Oh come on. Doc Sleep's PhD is ....A PHD IN AWESOME!!! LOL. Copyright Myq Kaplan. =x

I should shut my mouth and speak when spoken to, and never burden my husband with petty things like how I'm feeling-that's what my girlfriends are for. In return for doing all of those things, I'm lucky enough to have a husband who might actually tolerate me and not divorce me!

The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands

It was actually a pretty fun read, but I had a headache at the end from all the huge eye rolling I was doing. I love to cook and clean and take care of my husband, and I would want to stay home if possible when we have kids-but this book was too too too much. I feel so badly for women who read this book and actually take the advice and don't realize they deserve more out of a marriage, and a little respect.

Don't forget that you must also be available for sex whenever he wants unless you want him to cheat on you. He's a man, he can't be bothered with your silly needs and feelings.

It ignores the fact that black people have historically voted for Democrats at a 90% clip. If there is a percentage of black folks who is motivated by race you MIGHT be able to narrow it down to first time black voters who have had the opportunity to vote for white democratic presidential candidates but decided not to vote for anyone until Obama.

I didnt say it was the utter truth, of course it's a generalization. But it's not a generalization founded on made up ideas.

I'm saying it's partially right because a lot of public speakers for the black community, people in interviews, etc clearly stessed the poin that voting for Obama was mostly an issue about "making a black man president".

I personally think that, with all his faults and disppointments, he won out of intelligence and charisma. But the right extremist and shit talkers will always cling to that percentage and make it a generalization. That's how truth spinning works. You take a small, partial vie of the truth and twist it until it fits your agenda. And call everyone who's against it, a person "in denial".

That's the difference between Palin and this woman: Palin yapped about Joe Plummers and communism (which worked on the very low common denominator sections of people. which stilll are a lot), this one was talking for the slightly educated racists, ann coulter is for the literate idiots.

I think Dr. What's-her-name has a point...the word Nigger shouldn't define one's racism or lack-there of. Her problem was that she continued on trying to make her point and in doing so said some stupid and racist things.

Nigger was the least offensive thing she said.

I feel you man. Just found it surprising to see you quote that statistic because it's so obviously flawed and biased. I wasn't sure if you did it on purpose or if you too didn't understand the overall context of how that stat was spun.

I admit that a LOT of black people were influenced by his race but it wasn't the lone factor in voting for Obama or democrats. If that was the case then Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton would've received much more support from black voters than they did.
