Negro no longer acceptable? If I send a check for $1 million to The United Negro College Fund, they’ll send it back?

"Great negro" used to be a compliment until was corrupted into a slur by the racist woke crowd.

I'm reminded of the Jackie Chan bar scene in one of the Rush Hour movies. Here is the television PC version.

Ah...for Biden it’s a gaffe. Not that he’s racist to his very core. Interesting...

In his “story” as they call it, Biden even lies about Paige’s age when he joined the majors.

Paige, arguably the best pitcher in baseball history, was 41 when he joined Cleveland in 1948.

Biden has to lie and states his age as 5 years older or so.

Even when there is no need he lies.

What did he say that was wrong? That seems like one of the few coherent things he did say.

Paige had an incredible major league record for someone whose was 42 his rookie year.

Win–loss record 118–80
Earned run average 2.70
Strikeouts 1,438
