Quote of the Day

"Hey Cohen—if it looks like a racist, talks like a racist, passes racist legislation, it ain't conventional at all—it's racist."

(Denise Oliver Velez, writing on the Daily Kos about Richard Cohen's disgusting column)

Another excerpt from her post (next to her picture):

This is what I look like. The result of an ancestry of a bicentennial of breeding farms and rape during the enslavement period on one side of the family, and a loving marriage between a white Kansan grandmother and a black grandfather from Tennessee on the other (whose marriage was illegal in many parts of the U.S. in 1915 when they wed).

Since we've been informed by Washington Post columnist Richard Cohen that the sight of "us" (and we number in the millions) makes racists he refuses to call racists gag—I suggest strongly that they complete the process.

Puke on.

 You really should read the entire post.  It's here.
