The website The Black Commentator defined the loony left by calling for the end of the Thanksgiving holiday, since it's apparently an event for white supremacists. This is more about the Internet than the mainstream media, but remember that liberal blacks the news producers treat as sensible pundits -- like Julian Bond of the hallowed NAACP and Julianne Malveaux, the woman who hoped on PBS that Clarence Thomas would die young -- are on this website's board. Here's just a snippet of their anti-Thanksgiving rant:
Nobody celebrates Thanksgiving quite like Americans celebrate Thanksgiving. It is reserved by history and the intent of "the founders" as the supremely white American holiday, the most ghoulish event on the national calendar. No Halloween of the imagination can rival the exterminationist reality that was the genesis, and remains the legacy, of the American Thanksgiving. It is the most loathsome, humanity-insulting day of the year a pure glorification of racist barbarity.

Calling it turkey day never used to bother me. Nor did saying seasons greetings or happy holidays. They were just alternative ways of saying happy thanksgiving and merry christmas. You get tired of saying it the same old way every time. It wasn’t until the left started trying to control the language that I started to develop a deep resentment about it.
Injuns celabrate Thanksgiving too. Most of them love America more than most Dems.
Pray for W and Our Troops
Liberals hate America. One must realize that. If they are not trying to ruin Thanksgiving at the family dinner table, they are trying to ruin the holiday all togther.
Xmas has been around for hundreds of years. Think “cross-mas.”
Yup.
They have a lot of anger
BECAUSE IT'S AN AMERICAN HOLIDAY YOU FREAKING IDIOTS!!
That's as far as I got into the article.
GBr. belongs to the EU, and they've taken most if not all references to Christianity out of their history books, so their "thanksgiving" is hereafter null and void.
Canada gave us hockey, so that's a point in their favor, but their national sport is curling. Curling, and they don't even play football the right way, and they're socialist leftists so their "thanksgiving" can't be counted either.
Like I said, THANKSGIVING IS AN AMERICAN HOLIDAY!!
“Nobody celebrates Thanksgiving quite like Americans celebrate Thanksgiving.”
Who else but Americans WOULD be celebrating an American national holiday? That statement makes no sense.
Such unbridled hatred makes them all not only stupid.......but truly ugly.
