It matters not which "race" one is obsessed with. The obsession is the problem. The race obsessed racialist seems beyond reason, fighting assimilation with a world view that is broken, which offers neither answers or a self-identification which liberates the individual to prosper as a free citizen defined by their individual accomplishments.

What an absolutely horrible op-ed that was. The writer just declares that the ad is like 'Birth Of A Nation', without showing how the ad and that movie are even remotely similar, other than the writer's unfounded feeling that the unseen threat is a black guy. Tells us far more about the writer than about the ad. <em>Ken McCracken's last blog post..<a href='http://kenmccracken.blogspot.com/2008/03/cnn-on-spitzer-guess-that-party.html' rel="nofollow">CNN on Spitzer: Guess That Party!</a></em> Gah, Zach is right.

I need to clarify something. Honestly, I didn't mean anything by "...black and red ants in a jar." It was just a figure of speech. An innocent figure of speech. The reference to black ants (or red ants for that matter) was in no way whatsoever meant to infer or insinuate anything about women candidates for president. Their just ants for chrissakes!! Yikes!
