Color is the bugaboo that we just cannot escape even and especially when it should be the least important thing discussed. Which brings me to the discussions that the ignorant, race-mongers are having pursuant to Gabby Douglas.
Miss Douglas has won two gold medals at the London Olympic Games. But in her case, winning two gold medals isnt enough. The obligatory focus on the color of her skin by the politically correct, is sickening, but the ridicule she is receiving from blacks punctuates the statement made by Rev. James Manning that black people are honorless, incorrigible idiots.
[oh, wait...they'll hate on her too cuz she's right-wing]
No link to the original story. The story I read earlier has bern completely changed now to have Gabby’s black mother blaming the white host family for not knowing how to style ‘black hair’.
Dumb asses.
Apparently. Guess they think she is “acting white” by actually achieving. And the non-black libs don’t like her faith in God.
I had crabs once, in 1968. They weren’t that big though!
What.. GABBY’S BLACK?
Look who Gabby's biggest supporters are:
Support: Gabby's mother (centre) claimed that her host mother (left) knows 'nothing about her hair'. They witnessed the 16-year-old's gold medal win alongside 2008 Olympic gymnastics medalist Shawn Johnson
Why include this quote? I understand the person saying it is black and was probably resorting to hyperbole to make a point or else said it in the heat of the moment, but that shouldn't shield the fact that it is an ugly statement no matter who says it. Throw "some" in front of it and toss in every other color and that's fine, but as a blanket statement about an entire group of people it is unfair and the use of it plays into the stereotype of conservatives as being anti-black.
I mean, come on. Are black people really without honor? Are they really not only idiots but beyond all hope of ever being anything but idiots? Is this really what you are "punctuating" here by using that quote?
You know, I was actually going to frame a defensive response to this post but managed to catch myself just in time.
If I did, I would be falling into the same trap I always accuse other people of.
When confronted with politically correct garbage attacks, treat them with the contempt they truly merit - IGNORE THEM.

You’re quite persistent aren’t you?
Why don’t you write the author of the piece?
You’re right, and i apologize. I mistook this for a vanity post by you and my comments should have been directed at the author alone.
Thank you.
And I apologize for any confusion my post may have generated.
