  • KeepNit2Real

    uhm, I meant “initial”…heh

  • Darn

    The fact that the non minority people were pushing this shows that this “overhaul” was not to improve good governance,but to “bamboozle” black people out of the power they have. She supported that….no sympathy from me man. They should have done a house negro cartoon with her getting it from a white master.

    All white people are racist.

    It just takes the right situation to bring it out of them.

    You can believe the opposite if you like to live in fairytale land.

    Look how many white expressed their “attitudes” when Obama got in office.

    Oh….they hide it well, until something makes them “speak up”.

    F*ck ‘em all.

    OMG!!!

    Can you read? It was a BLACK NEWSPAPER that ran the cartoon. What bothers me is the double standard involved. If this were run in a White owned and published Newspaper Everybody would be up in arms. Why are we allowed to practice this garbage against each other without anything being said about it? Yet another reason why we as a race are looked down on by everyone around the world.

  • Glok…!

    NIQUE!
    LOL, GAL I GOT THAT THAT HILLSHIRE FARM ….GO MEAT! TYPE SAUSAGE …NO LICKLE LINKS HERE!

  • oh well

    I’m not black…and even I’m offended. WTH????

    This goes to show just how threatened mainstream America is now that we have an African American President in office. Nothing will be done about this simply because a large portion of white America still has a sour taste in their mouths because of the resent hiring’s of several minorities who now hold office. The problem is that the same people who make the final decisions in the news ad and news segments are the same people who consider themselves better than us. And have a false since of entitlement that can only be cured by time. When minorities holding office becomes a way of life instead of a new phenomenon then and only them will this distasteful behavior become the shocking news and not the fact that we have a black president. And by the way, AMERIE INDUSTRY ARE YOU SERIOUS???

  • Nique

    @Glock…!

    LMAO! You are a trip! I like my sh!!t to smell right and not salty..
