Now he's complaining that those with pale faces will live longer than those with dark faces. We palefaces are beneficiaries of past slave labor. I'm also the beneficiary of Irish and Polish slave labor - shall we pay all of them as well?

Figures on this? As I said, the Economist, not a conservative journal, said Americans of Jamaican extraction actually have a higher per capita income than whites. Colour of one's skin does not determine one's fate, as this data shows. Perhaps it has something to do with hard work, self discipline and commitment.

Just maybe.

No just maybe about it. There will always be bigots. But hard work and pride and values will show the majority of people what one is really about. The fact that someone with the character of Clarence Thomas is derided in the mainstream press, shows me exactly what the libs really want for minorities. To keep them down and dependent.
