Psst. satire

"I have a dream that one day a man will not be judged by his apparently illegal actions, but by the color of his skin and the content of his curriculum vitae."

Satire. But were it not true, it wouldn't be so painfully funny.

“I have a dream that one day a man will not be judged by his apparently illegal actions, but by the color of his skin and the content of his curriculum vitae.”

Excellent. :)

However it makes perfect sense... :-)

“Skip Gates trying to jigger into a house”

Skip be gettin’ jiggy wit it?

[sarasota]

If anyone heard Geraldo on Fox this morning, I thought it was satire as he totally covered for 0’s “stupidity” remark. Unbelievable.

If a black officer had confronted Skip Gates trying to jigger into a house, Skip would not have become belligerent.

If you ask me, zero is saying that Gates is a racist.

[Enterprise]

It may be satire but consider that Obama didn’t need to know the facts in the Gates arrest. All he needed to form an opinion was the race of the people involved. Similary, Sotomayor doesn’t need to know the law, or the facts. All she needs to know is the race. White wrong, minorities right. Obama’s administration only needs to know the race involved, and all else becomes clear.

"..... trying to jigger into a house"

That sounds like a racist comment to me.

[Petrosius]

"The president said… "If a black officer had confronted Skip Gates trying to jigger into a house, Skip would not have become belligerent, and so he would not have been arrested."

So Obama is admitting that it was Gates, not the officer, who was the racist and that he was arrested because of his own prejudicial actions.

This whole thing might have been avoided if Mr. Gates had produced some ID....you know, like a birth certificate...;-)

Brilliant Satire by Scott Ott!

This ping list is not author-specific for articles I'd like to share. Some for the perfect moral clarity, some for provocative thoughts; or simply interesting articles I'd hate to miss myself. (I don't have to agree with the author all 100% to feel the need to share an article.)

I will try not to abuse the ping list and not to annoy you too much, but on some days there is more of the good stuff that is worthy of attention.

You are welcome to browse the list of truly exceptional articles I pinged to lately. Updated on June 3, 2009.  on  my page.
You are welcome in or out, just freepmail me (and note which PING list you are talking about).

Besides this one, I keep 2 separate PING lists for my favorite authors Victor Davis Hanson and Orson Scott Card.

“If a black officer had confronted Skip Gates trying to jigger into a house, Skip would not have become belligerent, and so he would not have been arrested.”

Oh? Really?

Obozo, a black racist, supporting Gate, a black racist?

Why am I not surprised?
