I wish the media would wake up and realize this. Every time a black
issue comes up, they quote him. Ever wonder why this is so?

They don't do that. They do not care. They only care what my ATTITUDE
is. My girlfriend's father only wanted to know one thing, in his
words: "Who did you vote for?" (Same thing, she says, he said to her 
last white boyfriend.)  

There are such bad eggs out there, but I didn't expect it from blacks,
who after all were supposed to know how bad racism is.

Oh, she feels that way. She and I both consider ideology to be more
binding than race or family. We conservatives stick tight, because
we're catching hell on all sides, and we have to stick together just
to survive. 


Note, folks: Remember how I was called up for generalizations? This
article is chock FULL of generalizations: Whites will do this, whites
are likely to do that, etc... 

But of course we won't address that - generalization, as we all know,
is only wrong when I do it.
