Yes, Dusty Baker's comments this summer come to mind about black players being more equiped to handle hot weather. The media spent a day on it and moved on.

Just to make sure we are clear, racially insensitive (even if no racism is intended) should require sanctions against all or none.... I look for consistency and truly dislike double standards....

On this point, it has to be stated that conservatives and liberals are intolerant of dissent but it is true that liberals are given more latitude... Unfair but true.... I think Jesse Jackson, Robert Byrd, Cruz Bustamante, and several others need to learn to practice what they preach...

However, I don't think that it is a defense when a conservative makes such remarks that it is OK because some liberal did it also... Someone told me that two wrongs do not make a right....
