I think it is sad that whites don't like blacks, blacks don't like whites, and collectively as a nation, we don't like people from the middle east. If people are ready to admit it or not, it seems to be the case.  I have never owned a slave, my ancestors never owned any slaves, I have never oppressed anyone.  Yet if i express one negative thought about the Obama family, i would be labeled a racist... well just because i am white.  I am of Irish descent, if you know your history you would know how Irish were treated when they came to the US. (shhh, nobody likes to admit that white people have been oppressed too) Not to mention the treatment we received even further back in hostory (open a history book, its in there!).  So next time you think of racism, remember it has been going on for a long time, and African Americans are not the only ones who are a victim of this.  If i recall my history correctly, most of the black slaves sold from Africa, were sold by other blacks for monetary, or political gain.   I'll go ahead and call myself a biggot since i'm sure thats the next move.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Sick_of_Public_Ignorance</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 06 Apr 2009 12:06:44 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Update: Michelle Obama As Racial Rorshach Test</title><link>http://www.jackandjillpolitics.com/2008/07/update-michelle-obama-as-racial-rorshach-test/#comment-7905151</link><description>...and she is First Lady of the United States of America despite you.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Admiral_Komack</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 06 Apr 2009 11:03:10 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Update: Michelle Obama As Racial Rorshach Test</title><link>http://www.jackandjillpolitics.com/2008/07/update-michelle-obama-as-racial-rorshach-test/#comment-7905095</link><description>Big whoop.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Admiral_Komack</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 06 Apr 2009 11:00:22 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Update: Michelle Obama As Racial Rorshach Test</title><link>http://www.jackandjillpolitics.com/2008/07/update-michelle-obama-as-racial-rorshach-test/#comment-7903855</link><description>We have move past the tragedy of slavery.

I loooooove this. I love this so much. I see a book! I see a screenplay! A cross between "To kill a Mockingbird" and "American Psycho." (And I mean that in the best possible way.) LOL. This is the most riveting short monologue I have come across in quite some time. Seriously.This is thrilling in that, you're like, is this guy for real? But, yet I know the people he describes, as they read this, will be like "Yeah, right" while their drawers fill up with the liquidy goodness reserved for those truly deserving of their day of reckoning.

I just know in my heart and in my soul that it will tear down so many walls. Her simple presence has us discussing things that normally are just whispered under the breath. I like my discrimination (whether based on race or gender) right out in the open, where I can challenge it, subvert it, and intellectually shoot it down. She's tough as nails, and she's going to have to be that way for a long time. I hope she knows that many stand right with her. Thank you Barack and Michelle Obama for weathering this storm to a brighter future--for all of us.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Jax</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 21 Jul 2008 04:19:17 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Update: Michelle Obama As Racial Rorshach Test</title><link>http://www.jackandjillpolitics.com/2008/07/update-michelle-obama-as-racial-rorshach-test/#comment-952997</link><description>Well, you had to know that anything from the Daily Mail was going to be hideously racist.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I'm in an odd position - I really like Michelle Obama.  I think she's an admirable woman, and if she'd been running, I might have backed her over Hillary (who I also think is an admirable woman).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I'm still not thrilled with her husband's politics (but I'm on his side against McCain, obviously).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Here's hoping that next year sees an Obama White House...</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Sami</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 20 Jul 2008 22:36:04 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Update: Michelle Obama As Racial Rorshach Test</title><link>http://www.jackandjillpolitics.com/2008/07/update-michelle-obama-as-racial-rorshach-test/#comment-929665</link><description>Indeed.&lt;br&gt;:)</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Sombody_took_my_username</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 18 Jul 2008 01:20:46 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Update: Michelle Obama As Racial Rorshach Test</title><link>http://www.jackandjillpolitics.com/2008/07/update-michelle-obama-as-racial-rorshach-test/#comment-928844</link><description>I feel like I'm a tunnel of truth.
