I had a high school history teacher spend an entire class getting the kids to question whether Egypt is really part of the Middle East.
She had no regard for the geopolitics that make it unquestionably part of the region (in terms of race, religion, economics) - she just wanted people to feel racist for not viewing Egypt as exclusively “African”.
Believe me - there is nothing on earth like a fat white Italian communist telling you what it truly means to be black. Nothing.
She (the teacher)is right. Egypt is part of the MIDDLE WEST.
Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana and Eastern Idaho. Oh,...and South Beach(Florida)where that outfit little Tutsky is wearing would arouse AB-SOL-YUOOT-LEE no attention whatsoever without a little something to brighten it up.
“there is nothing on earth like a fat white Italian communist telling you what it truly means to be black. Nothing”
Perhaps the best line ever put onto free republic..
A little shortening up to fit the size restrictions and I think you've got one heck of a tagline there.

P.S.: I saw this Philadelphia show. It’s fabulous and I recommend it to everyone. Not as good as the Met’s show back in the 1970’s (the “mask” that the event is using in its publicity is not in the exhibition, but it’s very good, anyway.)
Wonderful line, Steve. And so true of liberals I've known. That kind seems to be drawn especially to the educational and "news" trades.
