The Fightin' Coloreds


There is an entire genre of comedy dedicated to racial differences, but you must walk a fine line if you choose that path (unless of course you are black). Now my biggest qualm with feminists is that they pick the wrong battles. They take the littlest situations and make a huge deal out of them. For example, Augusta National (a private club mind you) doesn't allow female members. I don't see what the big deal is. Private clubs can do whatever they want. Along the same lines, the PGA lets Michelle Wie play in a handful of tournaments, but no men are allowed to play in LPGA events. This bothers me because she prevents a man who works his ass off just so that he can qualify for tournaments from being able to see his hard work pay off. That being said, black people are exponentially worse than feminists. I wouldn't dare say the kinds of things about black people that I say about women. 1.) Because black people are sensitive beyond belief and 2.) all black people can beat me up.

Stephen Colbert is probably the best interviewer on the planet. His quick wit catches just about everyone he interviews off guard. While the above video is hilarious at times (some of it isn't that funny), is it not also racially insensitive? And the fact that he is saying these things to the president and CEO of the most sensitve organization of all time makes it that much edgier.
