I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and write that I don’t think you are a racist, and I’ll even give you further benefit of the doubt- that you mean to use the term in a highly ironic way- but I doubt very much if you would use that term at work, or amongst mixed company etc.....

So you shouldn’t use it here- especially when it can be used by lurkers to attack free republic for being racist.

If you honestly can’t see that, then the Admins should probably pull your postings.

I sorta see where you're coming from... but I totally disagree...

At work, and usually around mixed company, I need to abide by the PC atmosphere that's so awfully prevalent... I didn't realize this was a PC environment here.... If that was the case, what's the point? Frankly, I've called the left sKum on a few occasions... Would I use that phrase, or jacka$$e$, or the like? Probably not....

Again, it was meant more tongue-in-cheek than anything else... and I'm not gonna censor myself even beyond what the MSM uses themselves....

That being said, I AM a guest in JRob's living room... and he or the Mods can edit or ban my postings, or my account, at their will

Please don't go down the road of making this a PC site, it's as slippery slope.

2007 LA Times article--Obama the 'Magic Negro' The Illinois senator lends himself to white America's idealized, less-than-real black man.

"The Magic Negro is a figure of postmodern folk culture, coined by snarky 20th century sociologists, to explain a cultural figure who emerged in the wake of Brown vs. Board of Education. "He has no past, he simply appears one day to help the white protagonist," reads the description on Wikipedia"
