If Joan Rivers FELT an inkling to tell it...then she’s guilty already...ask Juan Williams

*inkling* I think that word has racist overtones.

If liberals can’t make a joke about him then liberals really aren’t ready for a black President, are they.

Heck, I had second thoughts of pulling this article up for fear of the ‘’Reading Police’’ would break into my office

Indeed, “blackie” IS not in good taste.

Can we still call Zero and/or Shellie “clueless”, “imbeciles”, “clownish”, etc., or is that out of bounds too?
To: evets
I still don’t understand that outfit, even when Jackie Onassis wears it.

That picture's just plain wrong. Jackie would never dress like Michelle.

well? calling a black person blackie IS racist. no matter what it rhymes with. as much as I was prepaed to jump all over this self-censorship, when I read what the offending remark was, I tend to agree with her.

Still got it out there.
Good one.
I doubt if she cares that the pctwits will attempt to ruin her. She is clever and competent, something that those this manufacture is intend to hook are not.
In fact, it is likely considered by her a good career move, given the current environment and whatnot.
