The 2nd Amendment Lives! Shot Heard Round The World. FREEDOM WINS.

Apparently it's negative if it supposedly helped a minority, who then became an ideologocal conservative.  If they became part of the liberal herd, than it was a thriving success

<<All right , you deserved the barb even if I didn't know it at the time.>>

Not really.  The barb is deserved by the person who introduces the topic, which I would never have done.  I believe in AA and wouldn't do anything to discredit it, even if it meant losing an argument.   However, once the topic is introduced, the idea's on the table - - I can't lie and say it played no part, and I can't simply agree and say that AA's bad.  I did the only honest thing I could do - - acknowledge that AA has its negative results and that Clarence Thomas is obviously one of them and at the same time defend AA by pointing out that on the whole the positives outweigh the negatives.  So I don't think I deserved the barb after all.

That's ONE way to misinterpret what the article said.

I don't misinterpret what I read. The article was nothing more than a racist hit piece.

He's just a self-hating Uncle Tom who sold out to the white racist Republicreeps at the expense of poor blacks who could have benefited from the same program that he himself did.

So many lies in this one sentence i don't know where to start.

Let's just say that poor blacks are still eligible for affirmative action.

<<So many lies in this one sentence i don't know where to start.>>

When I start to comment on some massive tissue of lies, I start with the first lie and work my way through in numerical order.

<<Let's just say that poor blacks are still eligible for affirmative action.>>

Yeah, no thanks to Clarence Thomas and his "conservative" patrons.

If the success of a guy amounts to his being raised to high national office , and this is negative , I wonder what you would think was positive.

He got there by betraying people just like himself to a bunch of white racist ass-holes.  If you want to consider selling out some kind of "success," be my guest.

Who did he betray?

Who decides what is appropriate Negro thought?

[Michael Tee]

<<Who did he betray?>>

Every black kid who stands in need of affirmative action to rectify the surviving legacy of past and present racial discrimination.

<<Who decides what is appropriate Negro thought?>>

Me.  I do.

[BT]

Me.  I do.

What makes you any different than a knuckle dragging southern racist? Geography?

[Michael Tee]

<<What makes you any different than a knuckle dragging southern racist? >>
Luck.  Circumstances.

<<Geography?>>

That's part of it, but it's not all of it.

[BT]

Frankly i don't see a difference.

unless you delude yourself into thinking your intentions are more pure.

[Michael Tee]

<<Frankly i don't see a difference.>>

Let me spell it out for you, at the risk of seeming somewhat immodest:  I'm smarter, I'm better educated, I come from a better family, I come from a better culture, I live in a better country and I've probably got better genes.  That's why he's a southern racist knuckle-dragger and I'm not.

<<unless you delude yourself into thinking your intentions are more pure. >>

That's no delusion, that's a fact.

LOL......gotta love it

So Mikey is genetically superior to the Negro.
