Today's racist racists

Dallas County's Black Holes
John Wiley Price and Judge Thomas Jones

Dallas County commissioners were discussing problems with the central collections office that is used to process traffic ticket payments and handle other paperwork normally done by the JP Courts.

Commissioner Kenneth Mayfield, who is white, said it seemed that central collections "has become a black hole" because paperwork reportedly has become lost in the office.

Commissioner John Wiley Price, who is black, interrupted him with a loud "Excuse me!" He then corrected his colleague, saying the office has become a "white hole."

That prompted Judge Thomas Jones, who is black, to demand an apology from Mayfield for his racially insensitive analogy.

Mayfield shot back that it was a figure of speech and a science term. A black hole, according to Webster's, is perhaps "the invisible remains of a collapsed star, with an intense gravitational field from which neither light nor matter can escape."  [Dallas Morning News]

Price's apologia is, well, priceless. He thinks "devil's food cake" is racist, and compares "black hole" to "jew you down".

Along the way he also confuses "haggle" and "barter". Yep, this is just the kind of guy we want to put in charge. Not.

How ignorant can people be? Why didn't someone just tell him he was a stupid f*** who is totally uneducated.

If Mobama is elected, there's going to be a whole lot of *uppity* going on. No one will be allowed to say *black* in any form because it's r-a-a-a-acist. Blacks have only themselves to blame for the fact that so many of us are turning our backs on them.

Several years back I can recall sitting in a meeting and making the statement that whether we had adequate electric power for the task at hand should be a black and white decision. Someone piped up that I shouldn't bring race into the matter. WTF? Liberalism is a mental disease. How one can go from having a discussion about whether the lights are on or not to accusing someone of being a racially oppressive bastard is beyond me. It's like their minds are mousetraps just waiting for the slightest provocation to snap. - Vice Sgt Boone

Yes, like living in Chicago during the halcyon days of... now who was that obese black homo mayor who choked to death on Brown's chicken in the back of his limo? Ah well, you get the drift. This is where and when the Obamassiah got his start. Their battle cry was, "Now We's gonna get Our's" In the end, nothing worked in the city that works.
