In one sense Steele was right — blacks still have to prove themselves, because 30 years of affirmative action have convinced most of us that blacks aren’t qualified for their jobs, until they prove it.

Obama certainly has lived up to that rule.

I tried to think about where you are coming from with that ridiculous remark. All I can come up with is: Old-timer?

So, Steele was right. As much as I thought he was stupid for playing the race card, it turns out that he was absolutely right! He, and all the other blacks, still have to prove themselves to old-timers like you. :(

Notice I didn't call you the 'R' word.
