carolyn maloney needs a sheet and hood

from HERE. emphasis added:
There is Carolyn Maloney, ripping into Kirsten Gillibrand broad and hard for voting against the two stimulus bills and for changing her positions on several core Democratic issues, sounding out her case on the fly as, “It’s the NRA, it’s immigration, it’s all these other things. In fact, I got a call from someone from Puerto Rico, said [Gillibrand] went to Puerto Rico and came out for English-only [education]. And he said, ‘It was like saying n—r to a Puerto Rican,’” she said, using the full racial slur. “I don’t know—I don’t know if that’s true or not. I just called. I’m just throwing that out. All of her—well, what does she stand for?
how very "white" of you maloney (and, no, i will not refer to you as "representative", "Ms." or "Ma'am" because you aren't worthy of a prefix other than "bigot"...well, maybe "cracker").

srsly, WTF? "i don't know if it's true or not" ('but i'll just pour that gasoline right onto the fire', she did not add).

brilliant speech, mr. bond...

you are to be commended for your words to the Human Rights Campaign.

this should be required viewing for all humanity: gay and straight, black-white-brown-yellow-red, jew-christian-muslim-agnostic-atheist, democrat and republican.

if you read this posting, i exhort you to invest 25 minutes of your time to listen to these powerful words, delivered with great eloquence.





my only concern, mr. bond, is that it's very easy to give this type of speech in front of the HRC. i would like to see you give this same speech, word-for-word, next year at the 101st anniversary of the NAACP.

h/t to Raymond Leon Roker's HuffPost article where I saw this video.

wanda on the first lady...

perhaps one of the funniest (and most accurate assessments of the msm's veiled racism) conversations wanda sykes has had with leno.



leno makes a great point that wanda can do the neck crank/finger snap joke and he can't.

i'll take double standards for $1000, alex.
