Conservatism: Self-centered mean-spiritedness fueled by ignorance and misguided self-importance.

Bigotry is a social disease.

Legalized same-sex marriage almost certainly benefits those same-sex couples who choose to marry, as well as the children being raised in those homes. - David Blankenhorn is president of the New York-based Institute for American Values and the author of "The Future of Marriage."

Hope that helps!
Oh your such a poor victim mister fat white christian male... Boo hoo... I feel your pain...

God knows our plight has been worse than that of blacks in this country.

You're a sick sad man.

You never thought of it because Garysher is full of shit. The movie White Man's Burden did fine... Gary wants to be a victim, he cries out for it, but alas, he's just a victimizer... poor, poor gary...

No the point of the movie was that white men can't jump... In the movie Woody Harrleson {sp?} can play B-ball like a champ, but he has to make free throws, he can't dunk... Not like his black counterpart.

I had to listen to his show for years growing up, because my mom listened to it. Imus is white trash, he's the worst white Americans have to offer. The reason he was fired is because people will tolerate his filthy hate no longer. Period.

Nigger is used rarely in hip-hop. Nigga is used... It has become it's own entity.
