Fox News ^ | Friday, February 22, 2008

White Americans are both genetically weaker and less diverse than their black compatriots, a Cornell University-led study finds.

Researchers analyzed the genetic makeup of 20 Americans of European ancestry and 15 African-Americans.

The Europeans showed much less variation among 10,000 tested genes than did the Africans, which was expected, but also that Europeans had many more possibly harmful mutations than did African, which was not.

Well this certainly explains the superiority of African Civilization over Western Countries.

I always wondered just what was the secret of their constant success.

We are all mutts

Then there should be just as much chance for a white couple in Iceland to produce a black baby as there is for a black couple in Mozambique to produce one.

I was being sarcastic. Being of mixed-race, I learned very early just how stupid racial-identity politics are.

Why are so many “scientists” (and I use the term loosely) getting into this crap? I know it’s politically correct, but even Bill Clinton, the “first black president,” said that Sister Souljah was as evil and racist as David Duke.

"..and whites are genetically smarter than blacks"

Careful there - you might send some leftist into a blood-lusting frenzy.

so how come we’re always hearing about blacks being more susceptible to this or that condition or disease?

Jimmy the Greek due an apology, no?

Jimmy did not belong to a protected minority group.

He's lucky we let him live.

Best to not push the issue too hard. Like letting sleeping dogs sleep.

Yeah. they're drawing up the Hate Speech indictments against y'all this very minute.

And the ACLPyoo is filing a suit with the FCC to have Free Republic yanked from the internet and the entire membership arrested.

>> But we can swim. I’ll take swimming over dunking a basketball.

You do realize, don’t you, that white guys swimming and black guys dunking is directly related to the weak/strong thing?

See, white sperm HAVE to be able to swim better, so more will reach the egg faster, because they’re less adept at “dunking” ... er, I mean, punching through.

Isn’t pseudoscience fascinating?

My annual performance review doesn't include any evaluation of my genetic strength or diversity. My boss just cares that my performance is top quality, on time and under budget.

Have a look at Africa. I don't see much evidence that this comparison translates into success on any level.

Wow, the t-distribution for 19 degrees of freedom has rather wide confidence intervals.
