As WorldNetDaily reported last summer, a member of Congress, Rep. Sheila Jackson-Lee, D-Texas, ignited national controversy when she reportedly sought an affirmative-action plan of sorts for hurricane names.

Thats fuging retarded, he did it as a joke, and he's not "African-American" he's "African" or to be more specific, "South African" which more accurately denotes at a word the idea that hes from a country not a race.

“There is no room at the inn for the viewpoints of conservatives, libertarians, Christians, or constitutionalists in the public indoctrination system,” says David Huntwork, a conservative activist in Fort Collins, Colo., who criticized the squashing of “this gallant expression of grass-roots activism.”

If you think Racism is one-sided, or two-sided, or three-sided (etc..) then you've been sleeping under a rock.

It's everywhere. And all of them are ignorant.
