Oprah is a nappy headed ho (My last statement on the topic)

feeds@yuku.com (duboisist) — Tue, 17 Apr 2007 12:19:19 GMT

Someone asked the question, "Would you call Oprah a nappy headed ho?"

My answer is "yes".

She has said that at one time she was "sexually promiscuous" and if her hair weren't chemically treated it would be "nappy," so she is, or at least was at one time, a nappy headed ho.

This leads to a lot of questions. What's wrong...

I've been trying to post versions of this to Hillary Clinton's Campaign blog, but haven't been successful. I keep trying to clean up nonessential wittiness that might be offensive, but it might be my basic argument that's getting in the way. .I figured before I post it someplace else, I might as well post here and experiement with the new board.

Whoopi Goldberg exposing a typical right wing tactic

feeds@yuku.com (duboisist) — Sun, 04 Feb 2007 16:49:25 GMT

This is a clip of the fringe right pundit Bill O'Reilly trying to dominate a conversation and distorting the truth so it seems like he make sense.
That's typical of what they do rather than honestly debate the virtue of their own positions. They try to limit the debate to what, and shape it in ways, they think makes them look good.
Whoopi does a superb job of simply countering his...

A Crushing Blow

As many of you who read these boards may know, I have been writing as of late about how the south is not full of racists in lieu of the Richards Incident. I then went to work on Sunday, and while coming back from my break, I ran into one of my coworkers who was also outside taking his break. This fellow is around twenty years old and will be referred to as Young White Guy (YWG). The following is the discussion:

Since it has come up in the show during the Borat discussion and with the current debates about racism due to the Michael Richards outburst I thought this would be a good time to ask everyone if they have any misconceptions about the south. I, if you don't know, have lived in Alabama all of my life and I do understand that there is a stigma that comes with that but I want to assure everyone that:

I saw something on one of those "all entertainment" bullshit shows about guys who claim to be the ones in the audience talking about suing Michael Richards for Hell if I know what for.
FYI, it looks like the guys were being interviewed IN NEW YORK. If I can get free cross country trips just for being called the n word, I might have to...

Months back, Butternut made a comment comparing Bravo and E! cable channels. Since then all the new Bravo shows either feature gays, bad relationships, constant mention of sponsors, cross promotion of other shows, or more than one of the above. This is true for most of the shows on NBC\Universal channels.
Are they that desperate to lower production costs or is it that they lack real creativity? Or do they think their...

I've been hearing women say this. So are the rumors true ? Do you think American women are golddiggers ? To hear women talk about a man like this is really sad. Is what is in a guys wallet more important now ? These women have not even gone out on a date with these guys yet. And they are making plans with his money already.

Guys, if you hear women say this, run for your life. Every guy i've met from overseas,say american...

The "last standing" suggests that the other are dead. Like the Highlander. Are the producers trying to kill all of comedy or just stand-up comedians. I might support the latter.

OK, just as a disclaimer I tend to "watch" E! when I work from home. It's just dribble so I don't have to actually pay attention while I work.

So I just saw an ad for www.interactivemale.com on E!. I mean wow, they really weren't hiding anything. At first I thought it was an ad for a workout system or diet plan or something. I think if I go gay I really gotta up my workout and start doing...
