"...how prejudiced against black men her mother was?"

You are a racist slimeball. You sicken me and probably every good conservative!

[elwoodp]

Last night was -- as I predicted it would be to my closest friends -- Negro Night at the Oscars. The fix was in. No whites need have applied.

The only really good thing to come out of it was that the whole world got to watch as ms berry showed just how racist most black people actually are. Lest anyone doubt that, just take a stroll down most black inner city streets in the middle of the night. (But make sure to leave funeral service directions for your next of kin.)

Is that a racist comment? Only if it's false. (And only if you think reverend jackson (who said pretty much the same thing) hates black people.)

Best thing that could have happened
Guilt ridden Holywood gives her an Oscar for the sake of PC . They expected to be able to fawn all over themselves for being so caring
And they get DUMPED ON.
Serves their PC asses right

Maybe somebody should ask her how prejudiced against black men her mother was?

Someone did raise that very point amidst a discourse on Ms. Berry's Oscar night - Larry Elder, on his radio program this afternoon.

You are a racist slimeball.

And you are a idiot,when you are having a good day.

He still thinks of himself as a man first.

Amen, indeed.

Good post.

Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Oh, my God! I'm doing my Halle Berry impersonation, folks.

While we're addressing things that aren't politically correct, may I raise my very tired voice to say how much it really hurts me to hear folks scream God's name when they clearly don't mean it with respect. I really don't care what color your skin is. But please show some dignity when talking to and about the One who made you.

I think she was referring the idol statue in her hands.

[Revolting cat!]

White millionaires by the thousands applauding a millionaire black actress who is condemning them.

You're kidding me! (I didn't watch.) Bizarre! I only caught about three minutes last night and saw a shot of Sir Paul McCartney looking, I dunno, befuddled? Now, that explains Sir Paul's expression. There was not a hint of Ms Berry's performance in my PC morning rag, of course. (Another example of "racism", to be sure!) I must be living in a parallel universe.

Ha! I'm afraid you might be right.

Sir Paul was quoted earlier today as saying how impressed he was to see Americans winning the preponderance of the Oscars, that it was a good thing for American morale, or something like that. Good show, Mr. McCartney! Now, if only we can get you to please remind your new friend Mr. Torre how dumb it is to pull the infield in with the World Series on the line in the bottom of the ninth in Game Seven...

The newspapers with online stories about the African-American sweep at the Oscars are deliberately darkening the photos of the winners to make them blacker - exactly the same trick that got them into trouble when they tampered with OJ's mug shot. Now it's okay.
Believe me, there was enough light and flash power at the event to necessitate the use of photoshop contrast to make the picture on the left so dark. (from the Seattle Times)

The sad thing is, they're both good enough actors,but they were clearly nominated by the Academy so they could both win, and make last night's ceremony an orgy of political correctness. Sidney Poitier hit the right notes--all the notes hit by Berry and Washington were discordant and really quite irrelevant--as if they were dutifully playing into the game the "White Hollywood Establishment" had laid out as for the evening. "Two birds in one night" Washington said, mixing metaphors, and for a second it almost seemed like he was in on the joke.
