Link only as you probably know this story from January.

The trio in Virginia need to live by the same PC standards that the Dems and press impose on the rest of the country.

The Richmond Trio need to resign NOW!

It didn't use to be a big deal...it wasn't even a deal,period, until Obama and the democrats used race as a political weapon.

“opponent”’s terms?”

Playing by the opponent’s terms would be having repubs resign and letting dems skate.

I pointed out this story to some Dems trying to soft pedal the Herring story. Good job reposting this for others.

I’ll tell you what. ...

Who’s the black private dick
That’s a sex machine to all the chicks? (Shaft)
You’re damn right
Who is the man that would risk his neck for his brother, man? (Shaft)
Can ya dig it?
Who’s the cat that won’t cop out when there’s danger all about? (Shaft)
Right on
You see this cat Shaft is a bad mother (Shut your mouth)
But I’m talkin’ about Shaft (Then we can dig it)
He’s a complicated man but no one understands him but his woman (John Shaft)

You know, it would be pretty easy to photo shop somebody’s yearbook and put them in blackface.

Does the fact that a black woman is sitting right next to him and smiling not matter?

If it doesn’t bother her why should it bother anyone else?

The answer is it isn’t crime. It’s a leftist tool to purge their opponents ranks!
It’s a one way street. ALL THE TIME!

Shaft.

Ah, yes. I can still hear those wah-wah pedals and the overproduced orchestral chords played by lavish waves of string instruments. Those were the days. Thanks for the memory.

“easy”

Yes it would.

And it would be even easier to produce the unaltered yearbook as the ability to perform one implies the existence of the other.

“So... now “

NOW we are applying the rules of YESTERDAY.

So you’re ok with letting repubs take the hit, and then just “be reasonable” when the same crap gets stuck on a Dem?

As I said in my post, when I see the Dems and press surrender the PC weapon, I’ll surrender mine.

Until then I refuse to bring a knife to a gunfight.

Isaac Hayes and Curtis Mayfield. What would the era have been without those two?
Thanks for the picture.

Ok. I thought that was her. But she looked pretty good so I wasn’t sure. Must be from long ago. I think I remember that.

The RULES have changed since then! You can’t diss people because the RULES changed 50 years later!

back in the '50s and early '60s my church's choir (in a lily-white-at-the-time south chicago burb) produced an annual minstrel show as their main fundraiser, it was good music, good humor, and a lot of fun for all -- not in any way mean spirited.

now if only i can dig up some old photos, maybe there will be a pot of gold at the end of my rainbow after all.
