Hmmm...I'd call suggesting that "black men" would be interested in, much
less predisposed to, gang-raping someone pretty racist, but hey,
YMMV...IAC, what's that when compared to someone merely mentioning the
title of a record by a black man, right?

i wasn't offended or bothered by your relatively lame attempt at irony
or satire (or whatever it was), anymore than i was at sandra b's brand
of outrageous humor. an apparent right-wing provocateur, poking at us
liberals and obama supporters by using a quotation containing the n-word
isn't necessarily or always racist. ...and richard pryor ... well, of
course, neither you nor sandra is richard pryor. but then, i'm not the
most sophisticated, intuitive, or informed audience for such attempts by
the not-richard-pryors either.

What makes you so sure I'm "right-wing?" And that's a hint...you're a
lawyer, and you should have learned about it first-year...

i admit i have no idea whether you are in fact right-wing. all i really
know about you is what i perceive, rightly or wrongly, from your
writings here...and, i have confessed to being less than an astute or
intelligent audience. however, i trust you did not overlook my
intentional use of the word "apparent".

i doubt i'm alone among most here in perceiving the majority of your
political and economic statements as having a "right-wing"
tilt...anymore than i doubt you are alone in your belief that i should
have learned more in my first year of law school...or life.

look at the web site you posted for the sandra b. thing. even you ought
to agree it is a "right-wing" site...and probably far on the right. you
seem to enjoy using articles and statements gleaned from such
places...so, you have an appearance of a certain characteristic.
contrary to some others, i did not mean it as a slander...some of my
best friends are right-wing republicans. G
