And I just love your new avatar Wagner...!

Now lets just wait for the "redistribution of wealth" and socialized medicine... those concepts seem to work sooo great in other parts of the world. (cough. cough)

All I know is that it was forbidden to discuss "race" before the election and O'Bama (you know, the Irish guy) tried to keep the election race free. Now every news "report" is about race and we get to watch Jesse cry and Oprah act like more of an ass than she already is. So now do the floodgates of hate and discontent open and race becomes the forward most issue? Give me a break, race was hiding under this election all along.

I didn't know race was hiding during the election? You most certainly have been absent from this board for the last several months.

Anyway, I understand where Jesse's tears were coming from. Jesse was on the balcony when Martin got shot. Jesse marched on Washington, boycotted buses in Montgomery, and sang "We Shall Overcome" in Selma. He fought with his blood, sweat and tears so that last night was possible.

Say what you will about Jesse, but he earned those tears last night. There aren't many people who share his perspective, not even me as a 35 y/o black male. I can only imagine the elation Jesse felt in hearing Obama being announced as President-elect.

As far as Oprah, she stepped out quickly in her endorsement of Barack Obama when others were telling her that doing so could cost her career. If I were her I would act an ass too.

Jesse also wanted to castrate Obama a few months ago. :rofl:

As far as oprah goes, I am pretty sure she would be just fine financially if her career ended today. You can bet the farm that she would put her career on the line to help elect a black president.
