I'm glad The New York Post did that, but was it necessary sinc Obama believes in evolution? Was it necessary since the cartoon alluded to the writer of the stimulus bill, which was not Obama...it was Pelosi. I'm Black, and I want apologies from BET, and other Black owned organizations who pimp and send demoralizing messages to our children, and cause them to have a victim's mentality. I want apologies from my Black brothers and sisters who cause me to have burglar bars and not feel secure after dark in my neighborhood. I want apologies from my little Black brothers for being forced to look at their underwear. Yes, some Whites are racist...but we are just as racist. Let's stop the blame game. We fought for integration. I'm 69, so I experienced segregation first hand. I did the sit-ins and risked my life in South Texas to have integration. So now, what do we do...we are just as exclusive as Whites were in the 40's and 50's. We have so many "all Black" organizations. Suppose there was a Miss White America, (WET)White Entertainment TV, White Police Assoc., White Mayor's Conference, etc. It always appropriate to offer apologies if you think you have offfended someone.
