white hispanic male

I had never seen the phrase "white hispanic" until the Zimmerman case... Is there such a thing as a "black hispanic?" How about a "hispanic eskimo" or a "black asian?" Or an "asian black?" What's the difference?

I LOVE seeing the ministry of propaganda and other leftist institutions twist themselves into pretzels while trying to be politically correct. There was an incident where they were trying to describe a Black man in South Africa. They used the phrase "African American African." Never mind that the man was NOT an American, and had never even been to America! Then there was the naturalized citizen who was white woman from either South Africa or Rhodesia (I don't recall which) where she got into trouble for indicating on her college application that she was an "African American." It was completely accurate.

Wow, we were all typing similar thoughts at the same time. (I type slow, then check and recheck, you don’t want the grammar police coming after you.)

Great minds, and all that.

Lots. Eric Holder is an example, plus many of the pro baseball players.

So right! I had a co-worker years ago that told me he had checked the “Native American” box on his job application form. He was NOT an American Indian, so at first I was POd that he had done so and was given preference. ......Then, I thought more about it and realized that everyone born in the US is a Native American! ..The PC crowd sucks!

I once met a white hispanic asian aboriginal mime.

At least that's what he SAID he was...

...hmmmmm...

Wait a minute! You know what? I don't think that guy was a mime.
