It came from the "black" comment. If I misunderstood your intent then I was wrong and apologize.

I guess you'll just have to know what my opinion of Bush-bashers is sauropod. It struck a nerve with you somehow, which I find interesting. I can accept that.

Apology accepted.

Its too easy to fall into the trap of those who have co-opted our language and made perfectly ok words epithets.

I refuse to give in to such. Hence, I used the word "black" strictly in the Kettle/Pot milieu.

Kinda what happened to the word "gay."
