Empathy?

By the way, since I'm homeless for three weeks and have limited online usage, this will not be as aesthetically pleasing of a site until I get into my new house.

Rosa Parks Was Obviously a Nerd

A Louisiana bus driver made 9 black students sit at the back of the bus after designating the front seats for white children. Now, I know it's offensive, but it's true. The back of the bus is for cool kids and black people are simply cooler than white people. The bus driver is simply recognizing this. Pretending that white kids are EQUALLY cool is not going to solve this problem. Creating quotas that say that 20% of your workforce has to be cool white kids is an impossibility. What white people have to do is actually BECOME cool. Let's focus on the ends and not the means.

Democracy Button

Completely theoretically, would you be in favor of a yes/no voting button that would relieve the need of the electorate? And all policy decisions would be made directly by the largely uninformed public?

Sexual Delinquency Ain’t Oppression

Last night, I watched Terry Moran's piece about AIDS in Black America on Nightline. He blamed Jesse Jackson, as leader of Black America, for letting black people continue to have unprotected sex with multiple partners under his watch. Instead of disputing this ridiculous premise, Jackson retorted, "Well, George Bush is president." Then Mr. Moran blamed the black church for not standing up against AIDS like they did segregation back in the '60s. What am I missing here?

The Pale Horse

This season of the reality show "Survivor" is going to be participating in what they call "a whole new kind of social experiment". They are splitting up the 20 survivors into 4 teams and having the teams compete against each other. The teams are segregated by noneother than color. 5 white people, 5 black people, 5 asians and 5 hispanics. I saw some people interviewed about this idea and a lot of the minorities said that they would be rooting for their respective ethnic groups. So, I guess I should hope that the white race completely oppresses all of the others. Why do people feel allegiance and pride toward something they have no control over?

Levi Strauss’ New Ad Campaign

Beautiful classical music cues. Cut to a girl walking in and lying down on a railroad track, Cut to a person driving off a cliff, Cut to a bunch of people crossing themselves and jumping off of a bridge, Cut to a girl walking down the street casually and comfortably in her Levis. Cue voiceover "Levis. You'll make people want to kill themselves because they look so hideous compared to you." Pan to a guy who sees the girl walking down the street and then just starts punching himself in the face. End.

Matt Lauer Has Never Led Me Astray

Whether it's blindly believing in a terrorist regime's pure motives for a Jewless society, or his blank face unable to respond to an economist explaining that a lower income tax would actually produce greater federal revenue, Matt Lauer has never led me astray. But, I had no idea that behind that sharp-suited Christmas package was a Calvin Klein model waiting to get out. Lauer for Unquestioning Leader in 2008!
