My word for the day seems to be DISGUSTING! Check out the image that sat on RNC's facebook page for six days! It oozes hatred right off the damn page! How the hell can folks of color ever sense that we genuinely belong in a society where this kind of blatant racism remains everpresent?!

Foolishness!!!

Why is it that when the slightest thing that our new president does, it is exaggerated in the media? People takes things way out of porportion and then try to smear his name like he is worst than the other 43 presidents who presided before him! Is it so disgusting for a man, Black man to each a piece of chicken? I just don't understand the concept of this image at all!!! Racism is alive and well in the 21st century!!!

Is sad

A picture is worth a thousand words they say; sadly, some times a word is worth one thousand pictures. This kind of display only reinforces the already negative image of the American RNC. It is just sad to see people openly displaying their ignorance. It really takes me back to Jay Leno in his Jaywalking series, no that there is any connection between a RNC group posting a Obama pic with an offensive ignorant caption and the Jaywalking series but it is the unapologetic tone in the display of ignorance, the tone without shame that really takes me back; what are he/she,they thinking?
