There’s nothing that liberals hate more than a black person who achieves success without their help. While the president of the United States gets worked up about a policeman who arrests a clearly out-of-control “scholar” (Henry Louis Gates Jr.) who enjoys a cushy job advancing the notion that blacks were, are, and always will be victims, he says nothing about his close supporters, SEIU thugs, ganging up on a black man trying to sell merchandise at an August health care town hall. Professors who refuse to teach Huckleberry Finn because of its realistic dialogue ignore the fact that eyewitnesses heard...

Union Violence: An African-American is beaten up at a political rally by thugs shouting racial epithets, and after three months his assailants are charged with the moral equivalent of jaywalking. Why wasn't it a hate crime? The beating of Kenneth Gladney by people wearing the purple shirts of the Service Employees International Union outside a Missouri health care town hall meeting three months ago met all the classic definitions of a hate crime. Time was, the beating of a black man outside a protest rally, and the arrest and prosecution of the perpetrators, would be headline news. Gladney was working...

Rev. Al Sharpton Issues Statement Explaining Why He Is Hosting WWE Raw Newsday's Alfonso Castillo recently contacted Rev. Al Sharpton, in regards to his guest host spot on Raw. His spokeswoman responded with the following comment… "In order to raise awareness and actually do something about the devastating achievement gap in education between kids of color and their white peers the viewership of WWE events is precisely the group of people who need to be reached and involved. Reverend Sharpton has stated repeatedly that all of us must take extraordinary steps to reverse the current trend in education and that...

Here's the mp3 of Senator Byrd. If Dem's want to play this game... I have a ton of audio clips for them.

How times have changed... When I was a child of 3 mother read this story to me. I wasn't racist then and I'm not racist now. This was a great story then and it's a great story now.

I mean this in partial jest. Only black people can call each other the N word. Now, the only epithet that I'm aware of that is close to being on the same level of the N word is the C word for women. Don't ever use either word. However, the media's propaganda has gotten so over the top, and the politicians' pandering has too gotten over the top, that it's getting to the point to where "racist" is the epithet for conservatives.

There comes a time when you're tired of holding it in. There comes a time when you don't care what people will think or say. There comes a time when someone has to say what many have to be thinking. People in this country were sold a bill of goods on Barack Obama. We were all told he was this "post racial" candidate that would bring the nation together. We were told to give the man a chance to heal the ethnic divides in this country. The problem is that from the beginning of his presidential candidacy (up to now),...

Did you know that when you refer to someone as a socialist, you're really calling them the N-word? Such an astonishing hypothesis was offered by MSNBC's Carlos Watson Monday in a segment he refers to as "The 'C' Note." Potentially even more shocking, after Watson offered this seemingly absurd opinion, Mort Zuckerman actually agreed with him (video embedded below the fold with partial transcript, h/t HotAirPundit):

UPDATE at end of post: Is this what Newsweek meant when it proudly declared on its cover, "We're All Socialists Now?" Did you know that when you refer to someone as a socialist, you're really calling them the N-word? Such an astonishing hypothesis was offered by MSNBC's Carlos Watson Monday in a segment he refers to as "The 'C' Note." Potentially even more shocking, after Watson offered this seemingly absurd opinion, Mort Zuckerman actually agreed with him.

Video says it all...

The mind of a liberal who likes to play racial politics. you start to wonder whether in fact the word socialist is becoming a code word, whether or not socialist is becoming the new N-word for frankly for some angry upset birthers and others So typical.

New York Rep. Carolyn Maloney, a Democrat, apologized Monday for using the N word in a recent interview while recounting a phone call she had received. "I apologize for having repeated a word I find disgusting," Maloney said in a statement. "It's no excuse but I was so caught up in relaying the story exactly as it was told to me that, in doing so, I repeated a word that should never be repeated."

State Sen. Jack Hatch, D-Des Moines, formally apologized to his fellow lawmakers for using a racial slur during a conversation with an African American legislator last week. While discussing changes made to Hatch’s health care reform bill by a House committee, the Senator told state Rep. Ako Abdul-Samad, D-Des Moines, that they were both being treated like the “N-word” and like “master and slaves.” Hatch told The Des Moines Register on Saturday that he “immediately apologized and I apologized to his clerk, and that’s the end of it. His clerk was sitting right there, and I shouldn’t have said what...

An association working for Africans' rights has reacted with fury to a decision by a state agency to preserve the name of a neighbourhood called Negern ('the negro') in the western Swedish town of Karlstad. "I'm extremely upset. The N-word is racist and this just confirms the nature of Sweden today," said Kitimbwa Sabuni of the National Afro-Swedish Association (Afrosvenskarnas riksförbund). The neighbourhood's name came under scrutiny when the National Land Survey of Sweden (Lantmäteriet) was asked by the Karlstad town council to reevaluate the designation. A private citizen had complained that "many people regard the name as objectionable, insulting,...

A Harlem group is looking to re-make the common slang term so often heard from urban youth into something more... uplifting. This is a hilarious spoof video. At least I think it's a spoof. Who can really tell anymore?

Really, anything with the short "i" sound in it will do. After all, it's muddled crowd noise on a CNN feed, and if you're a race-obsessed partisan who is just dying to think the worst of conservatives, you'll hear the n-word or "kill him" in whatever you're listening to. You'll then post video of the muddled crowd noise with your interpretation superimposed upon it on You Tube to the delight of 200,000 other race-obsessed partisans. Too bad it wasn't the n-word at all. As another Kos diarist confirms, to his/her great, great credit, the person in the crowd was yelling...

A few weeks ago, the Rev. Jesse Jackson made something of a fool of himself. There he was -- a historical figure in his own right -- threatening the castration of Barack Obama. It was sad to see. If I have often criticized Mr. Jackson, I have also, reservedly, admired him. He is a late 20th century outcropping of a profoundly American archetype: the self-invented man who comes from nothing and, out of sheer force of personality, imposes himself on the American consciousness. If he never reached the greatness to which he aspired, he nevertheless did honor to the enduring...

Whoa! "Geeks On Caffeine" has gone over the top today! GOC takes on both Whoopi Goldberg and her recent comment that the "n-word" is both a "term of affection" and "a black word only!" Here's to hoping that the moderators will allow this cartoon to remain posted, because the message is great! A must read for today! NOTE: The author of the comic has requested that you visit his web site and refrain from pasting the cartoon within the thread. Thanks!

From the moment Barack Obama appeared on America's national political stage, he was always going to be a controversial figure. A half-white, half-black man with the poise and rhetorical flights of a Kennedy. A Harvard graduate abandoned by his Kenyan father to be raised by a single white mother. A man with the middle name Hussein running for the White House in post-9/11 America. Yet, what few could have imagined was the degree of animus he would stir within America's own black community - and, in particular, its African-American leaders. This week, it was revealed that the Rev. Jesse Jackson,...

(Side by each, "above the fold", on their site's front page) If you are a regular DiversityInc reader, you know telling a Black coworker he's "articulate" is a no-no. But does that mean you keep it to yourself when you think he nailed his presentation? Not if you know the things 'to' say to Black coworkers. ... ----------------------- This time the N-word has the Rev. Jesse Jackson in hot water. After calling for a boycott of the word in the past, how much heat will the civil-rights icon get for the gaffe?

Caution: This video has some offensive Jesse Jackson quotes. Not for the easily offended.

"View" co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck was in tears Thursday after a discussion about the use of the n-word, ....... During a segment covering Jesse Jackson's recent use of the n-word while preparing to tape an interview on FOX News, Whoopi and co-host Sherri Shepard, who are both black, contested that the word has a different meaning for black people. "It's something that means something way different to me than it does to you," said Shepard. "I can use it as a term of endearment." Hasslebeck tearfully replied that "when we live in a world where pop culture then uses that term,...

Sharpton 'Very Disappointed' With Jesse Jackson Calls For Public Figures To Be 'Consistent' NEW YORK (CBS) ― Rev. Al Sharpton spoke out Thursday against Rev. Jesse Jackson's use of the N-word that was caught on tape while preparing for an interview for Fox News. Sharpton, who has joined Jackson in opposition of the word, said on CBS News' The Early Show on Thursday that he was "very disappointed" by this latest revelation. "I think this certainly does not reflect the Reverend Jackson that we all know and love," Sharpton said. "I think that we have to be consistent. We have...

News has surfaced that Jesse Jackson on the now infamous video wanting to cut Obama’s nuts off used the N word on that tape that was was cut from the original tape.

Fox News says the Rev. Jesse Jackson used the N-word during a break in a TV interview where he criticized presidential candidate Barack Obama.

It turns out Jesse Jackson whispered something even worse than his desire to cut off Barack Obama’s manhood. Fox News sources reveal that on an unaired portion of the tape, Jackson uses a vile racial epithet. It turns out that what he actually said, according to Fox, was: “See, Barack been, um, talking down to black people on this faith-based – I wanna cut his nuts out. … Barack – he’s talking down to black people -- telling n------s how to behave.� The longer exchange was first reported by TVNewser.com. Fox sources say there are no immediate plans to air...

For several days, rumors have been circulating that the Reverend Jesse Jackson punctuated his disturbing off-camera comments on Fox News about Barack Obama by calling him a “half-breed ni**er.” In an exclusive written statement, the Chairman and CEO of Fox News Channel, Roger Ailes, has told Cathy Hughes, Founder and Chairperson of Radio One, Inc. (the parent company of NewsOne.com) that this rumor is simply “not true.” “I can categorically deny that Fox News Channel is in possession of a tape containing the alleged statement supposedly made by Reverend Jackson,” says Ailes. “That is simply not true. So it is...

Below is the partial transcript we received in our tips box, and confirmed to be authentic by Fox News Channel representatives. Barack...he's talking down to black people...telling n—s how to behave. So, yes. Jesse Jackson did use the "N" word. But it was not directed at Barack Obama. Fox News and Bill O'Reilly have maintained there was more on the tape, but that the un-aired portion was not relevant to the issue at...

AUGUSTA, Ga -- It's a new radio station that's doing a lot of explicit talking, illegally. Now the community is talking about 99.9 FM. For the second day in a row, 99.9's owner said he would meet with News 12 to explain himself and for the second day in a row he backed out, and that has some in the community are crying foul. It's renegade radio right in the middle of your FM dial, and on 99.9 is where you will find DJ Shortdog, "Yeah it's official, we're underground. We don't have a license. Slap me on the wrist."...

Arizona will never shake its reputation as a backwards, redneck state with vestiges of racism as long as incidents like this are just swept under the rug. A week ago, the most powerful owner/publisher/editor of left wing newsweeklies in the country, Michael Lacey, made a racist remark, "my n****" at an awards dinner in Phoenix on the anniversary of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s assassination. The mainstream media ignored it. Contrast this with talk show host Don Imus's racist remarks. Imus was admonished by every major network for days, until he was eventually fired.The difference is that Lacey champions far...

Liberal fish rot from the head. ... it brought me back to our guest speaker who was speaking about Tom Fitzpatrick, who, if you don't mind the expression, was my nigger. – Michael Lacey, co-owner of Village Voice Media, while accepting an award from the local chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists Friday, referencing the late Pulitzer Prize winning reporter

Where is the outrage over the racist use of the word n**** at an awards ceremony by powerful editor and owner Michael Lacey of the Phoenix New Times, who also owns at least half a dozen other weeklies across the country, including Village Voice weeklies? Other prominent persons of influence have been forced to step down for similar remarks, including Senator Trent Lott, talkshow host Don Imus, and Gov. George Allen of Virginia had to drop his presidential bid. Arguably Lacey’s remark was even more derogatory than Lott’s or Allen’s.In his acceptance speech at the Society of Professional Journalists...

In an extraordinary video recording of Barack Obama's pastor - leader of a church that the candidate says he consciously chose after a long search - the Reverend Jeremiah Wright lets loose with some of the most nauseating racist comments directed against whites imaginable: During a Christmas sermon, Wright tried to compare Obama’s upbringing to Jesus at the hands of the Romans. “Barack knows what it means living in a country and a culture that is controlled by rich white people,” Wright said. “Hillary would never know that. “Hillary ain’t never been called a n***er. Hillary has never had a...

ST. PETERSBURG -- James Ham approached his history teacher with purpose. The 17-year-old had found a topic for his group's history project. He held up a tan book that screamed its title in big black letters. The N Word. Michelle Luckett took a deep breath. The Gibbs High senior was filled with questions. Why was the word used so casually among his generation of African-Americans? Where did it even come from? It took a minute for Luckett, who is white, to find words. Her approval was the beginning of a five-month journey filled with spirited discussions, and a few surprises,...

OPINION COLUMN We ought to give Dog a second chance By: Joshua Sharp Tuesday Opinion Columnist Daily Trojan It's always a good day when "Dog: The Bounty Hunter" is on TV. Bored by the prostitutes and stab victims on "Cops," I enjoy watching Duane "Dog" Chapman and his family hunting down meth-crazed fugitives on the Hawaiian Islands. The long-haired strongman, accompanied by his trademark sunglasses and busty wife, usually ends each arrest by giving fatherly advice to his capture and offering a cigarette ­- if that's his or her thing. But production of the show is now suspended indefinitely after...

LOS ANGELES — City Councilman Bernard Parks Tuesday introduced a resolution symbolically banning the “N” word in Los Angeles. Nearly a year ago, Michael Richards, who played Kramer on “Seinfeld” repeatedly used the word when he took on a heckler during a stand-up routine at the Laugh Factory and, last week, reality-television figure Duane “Dog” Chapman was excoriated for his use of the derogatory term for blacks. On Friday, the City Council will vote on the resolution, which is similar to a ban called for by the Rev. Jesse Jackson and Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Los Angeles. The word “connotes a...

The LA City Council today passed a resolution that bans the n-word. L.A. City Councilman Bernard Parks introduced the symbolic resolution calling on residents not to use the racial slur. Parks says the N-word implies somebody who's lazy, stupid and doesn't speak proper English.

"Television bounty hunter Duane "Dog" Chapman's son taped a private phone conversation in which the reality star used a racial slur repeatedly, then sold it to a tabloid for "a lot of money," Chapman's lawyer said Thursday. "I guess because of whatever level of anger he had of his father, he felt the need to express it in that manner," attorney Brook Hart told The Associated Press." "The National Enquirer on Wednesday posted on its Web site a clip of a conversation in which Duane Chapman, star of the hit A&E series "Dog the Bounty Hunter," repeatedly used the N-word...

Debate Rages On Over Use Of 'N-Word' In Society (CBS) PLAINFIELD, N.J. -- A New Jersey man is demanding action after paying for a cell phone, and finding a derogatory word with painful racial overtones printed on his store receipt. Nykii Southerland has been chatting it up as a T-Mobile customer for six years now, but he says he was at a loss for words Thursday after looking at his printed receipt from a US-1 Wireless store in Plainfield, N.J. “Instead of me looking at the price, I noticed a statement saying ‘good morning my n-----s @ US 1 holla...

MIAMI (AP) — A standup routine by black comedian Eddie Griffin was stopped after he repeatedly used the N-word, a magazine's spokesman said Wednesday. Griffin, who has appeared in movies such as "Undercover Brother" and "Date Movie" and the TV show "Malcolm & Eddie," was performing at a Black Enterprise magazine event in the Miami suburb of Doral on Friday when he was cut off after using profanities and the N-word, said Andrew Wadium, a spokesman for the publication. "We believe that ending the performance was the appropriate action," Wadium said. About 1,000 people registered for the performance. Griffin's publicist,...
