    ABC, NBC, CNN, MSNBC are all left leaning media outlets. There's only one major right leaning outlet. Which is why I never care when they whine about a Fox News story. There's 4 liberal outlets spewing anti-right wing nonsense. ABC has been a big offender of this, but fairly so, their ratings are tanking.

    The last sentence in your post belies your protest now. This country had serious race problems loooooong before Obama's name appeared on the radar. Google "rise in white sumpremacist groups since Obama" and see what you find.

    Said by a guy who openly supported the Democrat party, donated a chunk of his money to their campaigns, openly supported Obama in his 2nd election and also openly supports gay marriage.

    But sure...."shut up and act."

    For the love of Pete...not you too. :(

    Half black half white doesn't mean (*)(*)(*)(*). Black is black. Come on now. :(

    No, you were attempting to emphasize the black part.

    No go, Joe.

    I hardly ever watch a commercial. Change the channel, or most of what I watch is recorded and I skip over the commercials.

    Very amusing how a promo for a show that's been on the air for 3 seasons has people suddenly and self-righteously riled up, and same show has taken on other real life issues besides the one mentioned in said promo.

    How is black, black, when he's just as white? He's not one percent more black than he is white.

    LOL. It only seems that way because now your side is on the receiving end instead of the giving end. What hypocrites people are, dish it out for 8 yrs and whine like snowflake girls and he's not even seated yet.
    These people need to take their coloring books and playdoh and hide in the basement for the next 4 yrs.
    Never heard so many whiners before.
    These people are worse than the college kids they've cut down for the last 8 yrs, and supposedly most of these whining are grown adult working men.

    No one has shown me any evidence that he is not 50% white. I'm asking for sources.

    As far as I know, his mother was white. Did something change? He's just as white as he is black....half

    I'n my many years I can honesty say not growing up and definitely FAR worse under this current President then any president in my lifetime! The civil unrest was hippie vrs Gubmint and during that unrest race was mostly united against the establishment. The left has unwittingly allowed this enemy to divide this country and turn attention away from them pitting us against one another.

    The thing is -- it's just such BAD business. A good business person looks at the customers and gives them something to make them open their wallets. Hollywood has just been provided a great indicator of what people want, and their stance is one of contempt. Well OK - close wallets.

    I've said before, and I firmly believe that the mentality of the over-privileged and the welfare class is the same: They both feel entitled to their income.

    Yes, nationality wise. Unless his mother had some other nationality in her besides white. Like native american or asian, or whatever.
    But his skin is certainly only 1 color.
    And no one would know from looking at him his whole life he was mulatto. So my guess, is people always treated him as a black person with all the prejudices that comes with it.

    Yes, I'm sure the Harvard scholar from Hawaii had it rough.

    However, I'm sure you're right and people treated him as a black person since his skin tone is darker.

    Um, which side decided not to do a single thing in congress for the last 8 yrs?
    The country and gov't was pretty united through the 1990s. Then in 2000s it started down hill. And it got worse over the last 8 yrs.
    You need to look in the mirror as to who's doing the dividing.

    Also, by plan, IMO. See my sig.

    Hmm, he wasn't born a Harvard scholar.

    And therein lies the rub! We as a species simply can't get past the skin and it's color! Perfect example is Armysoldier views it as a genetic thing while you are judging a skin tone! Judging by appearance is a horrible way to label a human!

    It cost them an election, too. But I won't complain about their willful ignorance.

    Umm yea! I am assuming. That's kinda how it works when you're telling a joke.

    "Knock knock"

    "Are you assuming there's someone home?"

    "Well yes, isn't this a knock knock joke?"

    I did no judging.
    If you hadn't noticed, for the last 200+ yrs, some peoples skin color was a reason for different treatment.
    But yes, people need to get passed it. Yet, here they are, talking skin color.
