Good column on Gates. And Navarette is a liberal columnist.

He must have felt somewhat empowered to say what he said, not
realizing it could cost him his job. Do you think he'd have said it
knowing the consequences?

He obviously didn't think the consequences could be that harsh.

Why is that?

It certainly had something "to do" with the aftermath of the Gates
incident.

A Boston police officer allegedly sent a mass e-mail using a
disgraceful racial slur in referring to Harvard University
professor Henry Louis Gates Jr., prompting the commissioner to move
immediately to fire the cop, the Herald has learned.
Isn't Boston in the North? Seems it is a bit far from the alleged
"racist" South.
Racism exists *everywhere* in the US but especially in the south.

If it weren't for racism in the south, the GOP would be off the
ballots in many states.

BAR in case you didn't know is a big fan of the Thrilla from Wasilla.
I can't get at Sarah because your fat ass is in the way.


Ahh...you've joined the Freak-Loogy-FlaJim crowd. Birds of a feather.

Isn't that now known as birthers of a feather?

Is dumb Don writing your material?
