An editorial in the Tuesday edition of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinal ssems to call into question the content and character behind the color of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas' skin.
The newspaper - openly liberal by value of this opinion piece - is chock full of buzzwords straight out of the Democrat Party talking-points used to dsecribe the nomination of Samuel Alito to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Saying the Alito nomination "lessens the nation's rich diversity," the editors argue that Alito's mere presence as a man should disqualify him from the opportunity to replace Sandra Day O'Connor on the High Court.
Apparently, the Journal-Sentinel editors view the "O'Connor seat" as a female entitlement.
Most troubling, however, is the degrading, racil slap the editors make at Thomas:
"In losing a woman, the court with Alito would feature seven white men, one white woman, and a black man, who deserves an asterisk because he arguably does not represent the views of mainstream black America."
Will the Journal-Sentinel editors be given a free pass by their media colleagues for using such derogatory and disrepectful language - not only to Thomas, but to all blacks and all Americans?
Liberal Racism
The J-S's new editorial editor, Ricardo Pimentel has been a disappointment even to the liberals in the newsroom.
If God didn't want liberal newspaper editors doing the thinking for all the "misfortunates" of the world,
He wouldn't have created the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel.
How can a liberal disappoint?
It's the rest of us who have to live up to their expectations.
Has anybody ever known a liberal newspaper editor without this serious mental illness?
Exactly, Blacks are not monolithic, although liberals like to think that they are, which would explain the reason that Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton think that they own Blacks in America.
He definitely does not reperesent the Jackson-Sharpton kookie wing of black America.
Blacks who don't grovel as the liberal newspaper editors demand them to, are suppressed, just like everybody else who don't worship at the temple of the liberal newspaper editors.
I think the editors* deserve their own asterisk, they might be from this planet or not
Right. So just who are the new millennium plantation owners? I'd say it's the liberals and Jesse Jackson types who expect Black folks to walk lock-step with the liberal order of things.
Liberals are the new supremacists.
Modern political protocol:
(1) Conservatives are to be crucified for even the appearance of impropriety.
(2) Liberals can get away with murder.
Any questions?
LOL! I like that! Let's include MSM news anchors as well.
Brian Williams* NBC News, Christianne Armanpour* CNN news....
I think those people deserve their own planet.
How about Uranus?
Theiranus maybe. LOL.
Uranis and theiranus aren't far enough away, how about a distant galaxy??
in all honesty, one of the prime factors making discussions of race difficult for me, as a white man, to publicly undertake is the Cult of Blackness.
The behavioral characteristics of adherents to the Cult of Blackness are execrable, but calling it the barbarism it is opens me up to charges of racial bigotry - despite the fact that it has not one damned thing to do with race.
Somehow, some way must be found to wrest the possession of the pop-cult power over the meaning of "black" away from the thugs, racial demagogues, and poverty-pimps.
How?
Damn me if I know.
I regret that I have but one * for my country.
Amen. The question is, is the editor the editor of a newspaper or a newspaper*.
BTW, was this an in-house editorial or a guest editorial? It makes a difference because the former represents the official view of the paper and the latter doesn't. If it was the former, then the Journal-Sentinel is a newspaper*. If it is the latter, then the paper is a newspaper with questionable judgment but still a newspaper in the classic sense.
