Getting Whitey

Hilarious piece on Michelle Obama’s Secret Negro Agenda: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/leonce-gaiter/getting-whitey-michelle-o_b_106092.html A few excerpts: Just as it is with Christians and gays, just because we say nasty things about you doesn’t mean we hate you. Good Christians hate the sin and love the sinner. We love white. We just hate whitey.  The first (actually, the only) item […]

Clinton supporters for McCain?

It is difficult to understand why any Clinton supporters would declare that they will vote for McCain in the general election. Yes, I know they are spiteful and out for revenge, but still, can any one who claims to have even the slightest feminist tendencies seriously believe that McCain would be a better second choice […]
