I know all about that comment. Heck, I wrote the thread about it. But I wasn't sure if he was making reference to Clinton, or just saying that Kerry was acting like a black man because he had illegitimate children.
I don't have any illegitimate children, and I am delighted to hear Bill Cosby sounding more like me everyday.
It was met with such ridicule and outrage it hasn't been repeated and the media is protecting him by not mentioning his endless gaffes.
Toni Morrison said that Clinton was black because he acted black. IOW she said that bad behavior was indicative of black people. She could say the same about Kerry.
She said it.
"I don't have any illegitimate children"...Then you aren't black enough for Toni.
I'm glad we agree. Illegitimacy exists among whites as well as blacks. Values shouldn't be an issue of color but of basic human behavior. It would serve the country well if we could put on the table how to keep families together across the country. Instead of digging for skeletons in people's closets and playing "Gotcha." It wasn't right in the Jim Ryan case and I hate to see it happen to Kerry. We need to take this to a different level.
