Just sayin'........
I would also like what they are not afraid to report on to be true. That was my point. TMZ has been batting a pretty good percentage recently when it comes to breaking real-life stories.

He meant his little joke, Brother. He meant it.

Well, Rush and Hannity do the same thing, so what is the difference?

You still haven't noticed that Rush plays off of other people's comments. You need to pay attention to that. He just plays it up real big and it's a shocker. That's how he makes his money.

A black lady I work with was talking about this and asked, "what is it with rich brothers who marry or cheat with white women." She went on to say that she's upset and angry cause she feels black women are overlooked by rich black men.

I told her it's only because they're afraid and can't handle a proud, intelligent, strong woman - so they look for a bimbo they can con. She liked it.

So, I guess Rush's comments are not that far off, huh? Not taking up for him across the board, but on this issue, he is voicing what he is hearing and what you have heard.

"This makes Woods himself one-quarter Chinese, one-quarter Thai, one-quarter African American, one-eighth Native American, and one-eighth Dutch.[14] He refers to his ethnic make-up as “Cablinasian” (a syllabic abbreviation he coined from Caucasian, Black, (American) Indian, and Asian).[15]"

Perhaps he doesn't feel that he has to be with only black women because he's only one-quarter black. It is interesting that even that one-quarter labels him as black.

Seriously, I did not see anything that would suggest that Limbaugh was responding in anyway to a joke on a comedy morning show. Either way, to say what he said about the "black frame of mind" is offensive to me personally, and not the frame of mind of the many black people that I know. I guess, however, since there is apparently one frame of mind for all of us, we just need to get in line

Renda, you bring up another interesting point that I was going to stay away from. People were acting confused as to why Obama was considered black and Obama himself saw himself as black. I think a situation like Tiger where he tried to say he did not consider himself black shows that we consider people black when their mixed no matter what they claim.
