I never could understand why Amos and Andy had to be cancelled but we can sit in front the TV all day long and watch comedy programs with all white people. Second that 'society stopping this idiotic stuff'.

That's because GWB and Rush Limbaugh had them all killed.

...and then gave the skins to "Halliburton" and the "Golden EIB" network to display on the reception floors.

The funny thing about this is that "Sambo" was INDIAN not BLACK.

When the book Little Black Sambo was written, over 100 years ago, Indians, Pakistanis, and the like were also considered "black" or "colored" by the British.

The dodgy thing is..did she use the term Sambo at an Indian or a non Indian and what made her use an Indian term for a non Indian... IF THE TERM has nothing to do with non Indians??
