Forget Apologizing to Obama, Jackson Should Apologize to Blacks for His N Word Hypocrisy
Jackson should immediately apologize to blacks for not only trashing them, but also apologize for his hypocrisy. But that's not all.

The media never looked at the cover as racist on its face, exploiting a stereotype that is only denounced when it is wrapped around a popular presidential candidate and a minority.

No amount of whitewashing Helms' legacy can erase the stain of his reliance on hate-filled, divisive politics, or the hurt he caused so many people in the process.

Helms poisoned the ideological well of politics, calling MLK, Jr. a communist and the 1964 Civil Rights Act "the single most dangerous piece of legislation ever introduced in the Congress."

To fully understand recent events, it's important to remember a tragedy that happened thirty-five years ago, and how much things have changed for gays and lesbians since then.

ESPN/ABC sportscaster Bonnie Bernstein's remark that Palestinians (as a people) push their kids to be suicide bombers was followed a debate that quickly shifted from attacking facts to attacking personalities.

Don Imus has been making racist remarks about Arabs and Muslims for years and no one listened when Arabs and Muslims complained. That's because in our...

"Backlash terrorism" is not considered a crime, but it should be. Including when TV talk show hosts are accused of supporting terrorism by sporting "jihadi chic" clothing.

Rod Parsley draws no distinction between Muslims and violent Islamic extremists, as he blamed the entire religion for the attacks of 9/11 saying it's "a generational call to arms" to destroy Islam.

Senator McCain admits that he was wrong in the past. He should, of course, be ashamed of his record, which includes far more than just a vote against a national holiday for Dr. King.

It is weird that the people who do think Obama implies moral equivalence are outraged that he is comparing his grandmother to a bigot like Wright.

The establishment in this country needs to do a bit more thinking about civility and transgression. It is not civil or honest to attack a religion by trying to degrade its symbols.

Many people, including Obama supporters, may still have two questions that his speech did not sufficiently answer.

If State Rep. Sally Kern had offered similar hateful views about African Americans, Native Americans or Jewish people, we wouldn't even be debating her speech. We'd be saying goodbye.

Rep. Steve King should be formally censured by the Congress, so as to make it clear that bigoted remarks such are unacceptable and will not be tolerated.

Not only did the Oxnard kid who was killed have the guts to go to school dressed in a way that displayed pride in the face of serious adversity, he fought back with the only thing he had -- himself.

Free speech is not a license to incite hate and violence, and sadly that is what Sally Kern's ugly oration about homosexuals is all about.

McCain has issued a head-scratching response to the growing controversy over the Hagee endorsement: the "Great Whore" stuff isn't really a big deal, let's move on.

Fifteen-year-old Brandon McInerney has absorbed and internalized the slandering tongue of the president for half his life; it's no wonder he pulled the trigger on a gay student.

Sure, it's petulant and puerile, and we'd be better off if the candidates debated more pertinent issues. It is, however, the real world and so we might as well live in it.

If the Democrats want to be a majority party, they should reject religious bigotry.

The magic of The Golden Compass is the critical look it takes at religion. What will it take to bring about change in beliefs, some of which are antiquated?

It's remarkable that William Donohue is still invited on TV after so many blow-ups on air. But whatever you think about his politics, Donohue simply doesn't comport himself in a Christian manner.
