As my Toyota truck was getting a free factory warranty covered exhaust system, I was forced to watch CNN for 2 hours. What AGONY. First off, it just looks awful, no color, nothing vibrant, just Anderson Cooper profiling for the camera. But the liberal tendency shows through - as all I saw for 2 hours was an OBSESSION with RACE. Leftists see the world only through racial lines - and continue to perpetuate stereotypes and foment conflict because? You guessed it. IT GIVES THEM POWER. They go from one *oppressed* group to the next. So CNN shows their piece about the doll color chart, where they show young children pictures of identical dolls on a light/dark color spectrum and ask them questions. Who is GOOD? Who is BAD? Who is PRETTY? You know that the organizers of the test are just DYING to see kids point out the "BAD" dark skinned doll.
I saw the same piece TWICE in to hours, and they advertised for it 5 times in the 2 hours! The piece could have lasted minutes, but of course Soledad O'brien (of BLACK IN AMERICA fame) milked it for 30. Sure, there are some overtones to the test that are unsettling. What if the test were done with pancakes? What is the good pancake - the light golden one, or the dark one? Would the test results bear any similarity? Of course, there are race issues and stereotypes in all people. But to keep POUNDING it shows the left's CONSTANT need to keep it going. REAL racial harmony is delivered by GETTING OVER IT and letting FREEDOM take hold. The left is all sensitive about race issues, until a supremely qualified Supreme Court nominee comes before them, then they race for the old dirty playbook.
It shows the underlying truth about the left. They cannot compete in the arena of ideas, so they shoot for bare knuckle, race based or class based politics at every turn. The US has never seen a president so consumed with groups. He calls them out by name in his addresses! Latinos. GLBT's. Blacks. What happened to one America Mr. President? Or does one America not suit your taste?
