Milwaukee Journal Sentinel columnist Eugene KanedefendsBarack Obama‘s pastor Jeremiah Wright by writing:
People who have never attended a black church don’t understand a black preacher’s use of hyperbole – even outrageous hyperbole – to make a point.
I never had to attend a KKK rally to recognize unmitigated white supremacist BS when I hear it and I don’t need to attend a black church to understand I disagree with a man who says “God Damn America” and that 9/11 was our fault.
And I’ve noticed that on conservative talk radio the hosts love to hear themselves talk, viagra salecheck but on liberal talk radio it’s the callers who don’t know when to shut the hell up.

State law requires that anyone who spends more than $25 to advocate for or against a referendum or political candidate must register with the school district at issue and identify oneself and the stance being advocated, cialis salebuy viagra among other things.
So my POLITICAL speech becomes subject to government scrutiny as soon as I spend $25 on it?
My time is usually billed at around $150 an hour. So if I spend 10 minutes writing a post against a school referendum do I have to REGISTER with the government?
“American cities have gone through a massive wave of gentrification in the last few decades. To some people, it’s not a natural ebb and flow of the real estate market, but a plot, by rich, mainly white people, to take over the neighborhoods of poor, mainly black people. This American Life producer Jon Jeter reports on how, in neighborhoods all over the country, the plot has a name, “The Plan,” and most people you talk to know about it.”
Now, I’m really confused.
Which am I supposed to feel guilty about: white flight or gentrification?
(As a side note: why am I never invited to the White Person Conspiracy meetings? Did I forget to pay my dues or something?)
