MADISON, Wis.-a radio host apologized Monday for calling secretary of state nominee Condoleezza Rice "Aunt Jemima," but refused to back down from his criticism that she is a "black trophy" of the Bush administration.

Let's see...an interracial couple wakes up to find a cross burning on their front lawn in Long Island. My state has a former cross burner as one of its representatives. Ted Rall draws a cartoon showing Condi with big lips. But remember, conservatives are the racists.

NAACP president Kweisi Mfume said the attacks on Rice “are just as bad as those who hide under sheets and burn crosses.”

Queasy-'N-Fumey gets the picture.

Another thing that gets me.... I just wonder how many dems, in particular blacks, realize the President Abe Lincoln was a Pubbie?

The leftists are after power, and they never live under the rules and laws they want for everyone else. Of course, the rules and laws they promote are designed to hand THEM, personally and individually, money and power. Their hardened hearts know only one value..THE END JUSTIFIES THE MEANS..I cannot think of even one leftist who deserves anyone's trust. They exist through the double standard and through "double-speak."

btw I noticed "DJ" used as a keyword. Isn't he a talk show host? Have noticed this before, especially in newspapers (where, let's face it, they need a _short_ headline) where they call a talk host a "DJ". Unless said host plays music throughout his show, it's kind of a misnomer. (Though
admittedly more than a few talk hosts--like Rush--
_used_ to be DJs.

The term "DJ" in a headline was used in Boston when
Tom Leykis, then at WRKO, was arrested for spousal
abuse.

Calling a talk host a "DJ" is like calling Pedro
Martinez a left-fielder :)

The person who made this statement obviously has never heard Condi Rice speak. If ever there was a person with command of the facts and an incisive presentation, it is her.

I live for the day when she runs for POTUS against Hillary. The former First Cuckholdette will wish she was debating Dick Cheney. It will be slice, dice and shred, and the first female POTUS will be a Black Conservative.

She's a trophy, alright, but not in the pejorative sense. She's a prize that credits our society, the American culture and the human spirit.

He probably has, but in his narrow mind he considers any conservative to be dumb, crooked, bigoted, etc. Thus black liberals are fine by him, but the likes of Powell and Rice
are worthless.

Yes, but then they're told that it's not the same Republican party we have today. But try to tell a sheeple "JFK-style" Democrat that their party today isn't the same as it was 40-some years ago and they go into denial.

It's sad when a liberal is so blind, and such an ideologue that he can't acknowledge a Black Woman of such high intelligence, stupendous educational credentials, and experience that 999 out of 1000 men won't have.

The left screams: "It isn't because she is the most powerful woman on earth, or because she is the most qualified. It can't be! No! She's Black and only if she touts the Democrat line can she be considered wonderful. Otherwise, she'd be thinking for herself and we can't have Blacks do that, now, came we?"

On top of THAT, the Republican Party was founded July 6th, 1854 on the anti-slavery platform.

Oh' I forgot, it will only be news worthy if a conservative is caught doing it.

What?!? No week long suspension? No sensitivity training? What is going on in the world where a radio talk show host can make blatently racist comments and have NOTHING happen to him?

Did Belling ever mention this guy?
