Whoopi Goldberg has joined the chorus of people calling on the royal family to apologize for their colonial past, insisting that the crown cannot 'ignore the fact that Britain ran roughshod over India for years' - just one month after she was suspended from her ABC talk show The View for saying that the 'Holocaust wasn't racist'.

Has Whoopie said anything about the group of feral black kids that car jacked an old white woman’s car, dragging her and ripping her arm off, killing her? Was that racist?

Why does anybody give the slightest crap what any of the far Left hags on some daytime talk show think?

“Southern blood”? Because only the south had slavery?

Or what happened to black slaves who went east, to Islamic countries, instead of west across the ocean.

Roots would have been a 1-page flyer called Stumps. The Islamics castrated their black male slaves.

Or the fact that the US only consumed about 5% of the slaves going west from Africa while South American and the equatorial regions took in the rest.

Does it bother her that most of Africa still supports slavery?

The English brought a better life to the people within their colonies. Ask Obama’s Kenyan brother.

Hi, I’m Whoopi and I’m here so you guys can listen to me. Got it! Great. I talk and talk and talk... you listen, listen, and listen. It’s about me talking and what I have to say. OK. You guys just listen. Listen to me at all times. Listen to me when you’re sleepy, when you’re sick, when you’re constipated for four days. That’s your job. Listen to me, even if I talk horseshit, when I talk out of my ass, listen to me all the time and everywhere. There is no place in the world you should be without being able to listen to me. To hear what I’m sayin.... OK. We got things straight? Are you LISTENING! I talk, you listen. I maybe constipated for 12 days, but you have to listen. Okay kiddies...

Never apologize. Apologies are never enough with these people. They see it as a weakness to exploit.

Why should Britain apologize for anything?

What I have read over the years is that the invasion by Britain saved the Hindus from annihilation by the moslems from the West, brought India, to a certain extent, into the Modern Age and stopped the human sacrifices of the Tuggee cults.

She can’t help it. Just imagine waking up every morning and looking in the mirror. Enough to unhinge anyone.

Of course she has to trash beautiful Kate. Besides, history is all Kate’s fault.

The British also outlawed widow burning (suttee) in India, and it would be amusing to hear your student justify India’s caste system.

Never mind all the messy details, all anybody needs to know is: Whitey is bad and evil, everybody else is good, noble and sinless.
