No relationship? Does knowing someone on a first name basis define a "relationship" in your mind? If so, fine. I shared an art studio on campus with two classmates, one of whom shared an apartment with Angela. She and other students stopped by the studio on numerous occasions. A lot of stimulating discussions and airing of ideas and opinions took place on some of those occasions.

I can just see it, elitists like your self talking with Angela about the problems of Capitalism and what to do to overthrow this country. How you as a white person are keeping the Black Panthers down.
This was in a small college on a large campus and Angela was a grad student.

I am sure you learned a lot from her.

That's it and that's all.

I see how hard it is for an elitist to answer a question from the common man, I thank you for taking the time.

Since Dotman has so eloquently pointed out that we need a pres with a hot wife, let's elect whooever is married to

Is Darisc running for office? Why does it matter? Being a member of this forum would already kill any chances of being elected publicly!!!

Angela Davis has been an activist and writer promoting women's rights and racial justice while pursuing her career as a philosopher and teacher at the University of Santa Cruz and San Francisco University -- she achieved tenure at the University of California at Santa Cruz though former governer Ronald Reagan swore she would never teach again in the University of California system (HAHAHA!). She studied with political philosopher Herbert Marcuse. She has published on race, class, and gender.

She is currently Professor of History of Consciousness at the University of California and Presidential Chair at the University of California,

Doesn't that just pucker your doltish assses?

Have a nice day. Be happy !

She was a memeber of the Communist Party and a member of the Black Panthers. She spent time in prison because she bought the guns they used to try to free one of their Fellow Travellers.

Thank you for talking to us.

You must be proud like a MF. Anybody from your great state with a nickel's worth of brains should be embarrassed that she has any standing anywhere in the state more a' less a university. But you go dude! You have some for real America hating commie street cred. The rest of these left wing buffoons should be swinging on your dick!

So now you libs, in your continuing quest to show your mastery of political discourse and continental flair (cough), want to take cheap shots at Laura Bush and compare her with the French first lady?

I think a fairer comparison of Laura's sexuality might be with a woman of comparable age who was also a US first lady.

Because I think there is one that would be perfect. A shame but you libs seem to have not only forgotten her but now scorn her....she was the last Democratic first lady. Remember? A year ago you fine folks wanted her to be PRESIDENT. She could do no wrong. She was SOOOO sexy. You defended her...you cherished her. Many of you said you would vote for her. She had the many manly qualities you so admire as well as the thighs of a mastadon and the breasts of a chipmunk. And she had .......Bill.

Ringing any bells???

Or do you now want to pretend that the dog you brought to this fight is some young French poodle and not that old bloodhound that you loved with such slack jawed affection a few short months ago?

Sorry but I think you have to dance with the one you brought.

BTW Dip***** and Dipsoid would be great name for a pair of dumb dogs, n'est-ce pas?

MODERATORS! WAKE UP! CHEAP SHOTS ARE BEING TAKEN!

Time to do your job before this board goes straight to hell (or wherever you atheists among us fear it's going). Juuuuust kidding! I think you do a great job.

Mule (a self proclaimed "cultural racist" (I believe those are his actual words)) thinks I'm an America hating commie . Gee, I once knew a real live (now ex)commie! And that makes me an American hating commie!

I know some racists also (with whom I have nothing to do; they're abhorrent people), so I'm a racist?

I have a number of friends who are staunch right wing Republicans (good people - we have some pretty lively discussions sometimes) who, by the way, get a kick out of some of the whacko views expressed here by some of their more extreme comrades (OH! I said "comrades" !).

Some of you guys are so misguided in your beliefs regarding what constitutes being a good American that it's pathetic. But, that's just one thing that's so great about being an American; freedom of ignorance.

Cheers and good health .

Actually I thought Cecilia was pretty hot as well.

BTW I support a US/French JV, visit France fairly frequently and have talked with more than a few of my French colleagues about politics, Sarkozy and his wives. They all are concerned that Mr. Sarkozy is not doing the job he's supposed to be doing (breaking the unions etc.) but flitting around with his new bride. Nevertheless they all prefer him to Mr. Chirac and are overjoyed that the US and French have buried old axes and are acting like the allies we always have been. We are (believe it or not) importing superior French technology for use by the US Navy.

This thread is twisted. Have a pretzel.

If you think you're up to the task of debating my statement on cultural racism, fire it up big boy. As to the lovely & talented Ms Davis, it appears that now that you're in danger of tearing your hymen by straddling the fence. What was once "stimulating conversation" is now someone you want to duck.

I know some racists also (with whom I have nothing to do; they're abhorrent people), so I'm a racist?

California conservatives = jumbo shrimp.

Some of you guys are so misguided in your beliefs regarding what constitutes being a good American that it's pathetic. But, that's just one thing that's so great about being an American; freedom of ignorance.

Next time I need your advice on being a good American or anything else, I'll let you know!

Cheers and good health .

My fiance is from Argentina, she loves Laura Bush. Thinks she is very classy and stylish.

You can forget about that. I have zero interest in giving you advice.

From http://aad.english.ucsb.edu/docs/Halstead.html:

Cultural Racism: This term is being used with increasing frequency to draw attention to a shift in the focial point of much racism from physical characteristics such as social customs, manners and behavior, religious and moral beliefs and practices, language, aesthetic values and leisure activities. Whereas post-reflective gut racism seeks to explain and justify racist attitudes in religious or scientific terms, cultural racism attempts the same thing in cultural terms. It involves prejudice against individuals because of their culture. The culture of minority groups is seen as flawed in some way, and thus as standing in the way of their progress. Unlike post-reflective gut racism, however, cultural racism does not involve belief in the existence of any biological incapacity to change. On the contrary, change is exactly what is sought. Minorities are encouraged to turn their back on their own culture and to become absorbed by the majority culture.

Debate with you, little boy? What's to debate? Racism is racism. As I said, I have nothing to do with rascists; they're abhorrent people.

Your statement here shows you to be a lying sack of shiit. Black panther Angela Davis is a certified racist. You seemed proud of hanging with her. Apparently "Racism is racism" unless the racist is an America hating black biitch! You cool with that big man?
