Wot a crapload. Blacks have their own racists and their own UNAPOLOGETIC racism which is affirmative action and other government promoted scams. Reparations lawsuits too. Liberals and other fools knuckle under to any racist accusation. It's baloney.
Affirmative action is so out of hand that unqualified "minorities" are over represented in the Washington DC area federal work force. White men just can't get hired and promoted in some Federal agencies. A large part of the reason the Feds are nonfunctional and dysfunctional.
So,Mary honey, why didn't you see fit to print Barron's remarks yet you had to print Lott's?
Hi Mr. Kettle, I'm Mr. Pot. You're black.
Inquiring minds have dug up enough Lottisms, as well as actions such as trying to keep blacks out of his college fraternity, voting against the Voting Rights Act and opposing the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday to make Lott a liability if the GOP is truly seeking diversity.
Inquiring minds have also dug up "Byrdisms"; actions such as being a member of the Ku Klux Klan, being a recruiter for the Ku Klux Klan (a Kleagle), writing encouraging letters to the Klan Leader in West Virginia after his election to the Senate, voting against the 1960, 1964, 1965 and 1968 Civil Rights Acts, voting against BOTH African American Justices of the Supreme Court, saying "White Niggers" on public television last year, etc. make Senator Robert Byrd (D-WV) a liability if the Democrats really do have a respect for "diversity".
Inquiring minds have also dug "Fritzisms"; actions such as being a vocal supporter of segregation, supporting the incorporation of the Confederate flag into the banner of South Carolina (and signing it into law as Governor), referring to Latinos as "wetbacks" and African Americans as "darkies", etc make Senator Ernest Fritz Hollings (D-SC) a liability if the Democrats really do have respect for "diversity".
