Red face Powell & Rice FIRED

Carl Rove, upon discovering that black voters largely prefer two rich lawyers with a contigency of foofoo hairdressers, to GW and his proven cabinet of professionals, recently decided to fire both Powell & Rice . . .for not being Black-Enough.

This all happened shortly after the President told Pat Robertson, "We're not going to have any casualties."[in Iraq]

That would be simultaneously the smartest and the dumbest thing GW could ever do.

Secondly, you insult the intelligence of African Americans with posts like this.

Wow. That's going to cause Island some sleepless nights.

Funny thing, though, the whole 'felon list' problem has cropped up in Florida again this year -- big surprise. Lots of African Americans on the list, but almost no Hispanics... Hmmmmm....

what I meant to say is that this post is racist.

I think Fru-Fru was Gogol's horse's name. Developing...

"Foo" is a nice word.

If the name of this thread was "Powell & Rice FRIED" I would have thought something was awry with the San Francisco treat.

In any case: developing...

That would be John Kerrys white foofoo Frenchy poodle.

Okay seriously, There stands a chance that the black vote could swing the election, and fire both Powell and Rice. WTF?

And who are Kerry/Edwards wanting to bring with them? . . . besides the foofoo hairdressers.
(oh-no, now I have offended hairdressers. . oh my bad . .. I mean; "hair-stylists"

But mostly it seemed that some of todays threads had gone absurd. . ..and I did just come from reading The Onion this AM.

if you watch the chappell show you will recall that us crackers got both rice and powell in the racial draft.

if i remember correctly the african americans took tiger woods (he was happy and fashizzled about it), us crackers got the dark side of the bush cabinet (i mean the ones kept in the dark), and the asians got the woo tang clan (asian rap? sure!).

so actually condy and colin are ours now.

Yep, any statement in which skin color is mentioned does indeed deem the originator a racist. I forget the name of the rule, but rest assured it exists. Me and my black friend were discussing this just the other da.....................Damnit, now I'm one. This sucks, oh well rules are rules.

Nailed it.

Well, almost. the rules state that it is acceptable to say any deragotory words aimed at "white colored" people. (white-trash, whitey, white-boy. ..)

It's also okay to have a racist organization, as long as it is racist for a minority group (NAACP - National Association for the Advancedment of Colored People) . . .just don't ever call them "racists" just because they want to advance people, solely based on "race" . . .that wouldn't be right.

Man, we all ultimately come from someplace in Africa, a very long time ago.

People need to lighten-up. . . .if they move North.
