Miss California, like many who share her take on the marriage issue, was careful to talk about her "opinion" and "beliefs" and the way she was raised as if this excused her intolerance. Barack Obama talks about tradition and belief as well in defense of his own position.

Mason may be a big shot. But in my eyes, his a puny, unfunny bully. Hearing that he called President Obama such a terrible word doesn't surprise me at all.

Apparently Colonel Jay Raymond Commander of the flagship Peterson Air Force Base in Colorado Springs, Colorado, didn't get the word.

Reducing Asian women into a sexual object is not funny, it is not flattering. It is perilous. We can see this when Asian women are subject to race-targeted sexual violence.

Obama's call to service for Martin Luther King, Jr., Day was two weeks ago today. But to my generation, I'm afraid it may as well have been issued by Abe Lincoln. It's already history.

My sister Lizzie came into my room one day and played "The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll." It was early Dylan, and she explained the song to me: it's about William Zantzinger, a Southern bigot who had killed a servant.

In spite of Obama's election, what America has not given up and seems loathe to give up, regardless how far backward we move socially, morally, and legally, is religion.

Obama's election as president has changed America and can also make it a far better nation, one that truly embraces the ideals that motivated our founding fathers.

Gotta be honest, I expected this way before now. And it's probably a measure of how scared some racists are that America is on the verge of electing its first black president.

Sarah Palin's wardrobe malfunction of sorts wasn't that big of a deal to me. I went out to talk about it for a video rant, and encountered homophobia in the name of a McCain/Palin supporter.

"Great-great-grandma Frances will set you straight. By the time I'm done with you, you'll vote for who you want to vote for. You won't let anybody scare you out of it. That's the lesson of Al Smith."

Following McCain's statement last week that Obama was not an Arab, "He's a good family man." I wrote a post about it and got the following email which...

If McCain were smarter, he could have seized the moment when a woman at a rabid right wing rally said, "We can't trust Obama... He's an Arab," and have knocked it out of the park.

The height of hypocrisy is to see the angry left advocate for diversity but to completely become enraged when someone isn't seeing the world the way they do.

According to a rather weepy piece in the Wall Street Journal, Rush is upset that the Obama camp is portraying him as being a bigot. By quoting bigoted statements he's made.

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.
Erik Ose | Posted 07.08.2008 | Politics
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.

"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.
