Memory serves you wrong. Lott praised Strom Thurmond on his 100 birthday and said he wished he had become president when he ran. Because Thurmond ran on a segregationist ticket, this was extrapolated to be a racist remark.
FYI, the only KKK member in congress that I know of is democrat Senator Robert Byrd.
I don't see what's racist about this cartoon. Perhaps you can tell me what is racist about it?
The exagerated lips. Not even parrots have big lips like that.
"No you missed the entire ball on this one....Male dominated society or any other dominated society"
No, YOU missed the ball and the point. The 3 examples you gave (Spain, Great Britain, pre-Commie Russia) are/were all Christian nations.
My examples of N. Korea, China, and Iran are still valid examples of societies where negotiations with a woman will be difficult, due to the ass-backwards nature of those societies. Good luck trying to convince me that a backwater Muslim leader will take Condi Rice seriously. (I know it's not Rice's fault, but reality doesn't assign blame here)
Also, 2 of your examples (Catherine, Queen Elizabeth) aren't even alive and Thatcher is no longer in power. "Current Events" are referred that way for a reason.
Please give me your source for Lott being removed from his job for Klan ties. No such thing happened.
The more I think about the outrage of your doing a goggle search and counting the hits, but no specific information, I believe you are a troll.
Oh yes, on the lips issue, I think Maxine Waters is the only one in Washington with bigger lips than that parrot.
Yes, the former statment is very racist. But it illustrates the point of why you do not use big lips to illustrate an African American. it is extremely racists.
"Please give me your source for Lott being removed from his job for Klan ties. No such thing happened."
Actually, it was YOU who said that Lott lost his job (along with Limbaugh). I only said he had unfortunate and overblown associations with Klan-like groups. I already gave you one source for that and referred you to a search that produced 9000 hits. Do the research yourself. I can't come over there and click links for you.
I never said Lott was removed from anything - those were your own comments.
Exactly, still waiting for your source link that proves that Lott had an asociation with the Klan.
"Exactly, still waiting for your source link that proves that Lott had an asociation with the Klan."
Exactly? You asked for info that showed where Lott lost his job after YOU said he & Rush lost their jobs, not I.
I'm still waiting for you to click the link I've already provided you (one of 9000 different links). Again, I can't force you to click on a URL. You've paid no attention to anything I've actually typed in this thread and I'm not holding my breath waiting for that to change now. Don't respond until you click on the link I posted an above response about 6 hours ago to this question.
