Don’t they know that black people can’t get ID’s? Ah, to think back to those heady days of racial freedom in America, where one didn’t need to be White to get a driver’s license or a passport or a picture ID… Or White to have to show one. I denounce myself.
…no one is a hero in the eyes of his ex-wife. And this all seems like Old News type of stuff (h/t: Memeorandum). We know that Gingrich is erratic and less than a moral paragon. Going into it now just seems like the hell what hath no fury irrupting. Can’t say I blame her, but It… Read More Without Commenting on the Accuracy of Marianne Gingrich’s Allegations…
…writing the editorial that proggies can compose in a somnambulistic state by now (h/t: Protein Wisdom). Let’s call out the steps, shall we? Step 1: Racial Progress has been made since 1963. Step 2: Black People have stagnated since those dirty Republicans started disagreeing with us effectively. Step 3: Income Inequality! Step 4: ?????????? Step… Read More Paul Krugman Phones it In…
