Excellent point, but it seems to me that now they're also about pandering to people based on race. I have to wonder if Jesse and Al got the McDonald's board to buckle before the newsies could even get wind of it... and then I wonder how much the race-hustlers each personally made on the deal.

My point is, this is just a bunch of lip service, and McDonalds should be called on it. This is a shameless attempt by a large corporation to pander to the black people by spouting meaningless platitudes about how much they care about black history. The people who work at McDonalds couldn't give a crap about "black history month." And I'm talking about the black employees too! In fact, it appears to me that many black people resent the whole "black history month" thing anyhow because it is so apparent that it is a meaningless and hollow gesture put forth by guilt-ridden white liberals to create the false impression that they are "celebrating" black history. To prove my point, go to any of these self-proclaimed "enlightened" liberals and ask them if they know who Dred Scott was.
