Sorry for the non-linear manner of this post...like the title states these are random thoughts...
First of all people have to realize there is a difference between racial and racist. When someone is being racial they notice color but the racist not only notices color but makes judgments based on it. Mr. Wright is a racialist, most Americans are, but is he a racist? Perhaps but not because of anything in the speeches being looped around the clock. Neither does his physical actions indicate so.
Anything that blacks do for social advancement that does not fit the conservatives ideal of how we should do it is considered racist.
I do not consider Obama a sell out for distancing himself from Mr. Wright's controversial statements. I understand the position that the ever sensitive white America has put him in.
I have resisted for a long time from calling conservatives racist but when they constantly throw our shortcomings as black folks in our face and then turn around and get "huffy" when we point out the flaws of their community.
Like I said...random.

Black pups face doggie discrimination
Dark-coated pooches tend to linger in shelters the longest. Big, black dogs are often the last to be adopted from animal shelters — a phenomenon known in pet rescue circles as "black dog syndrome." Read complete article here.
Although this article says NOTHING about racism how much do you want to bet that the conservative talk radio shows will pick this up and complain how the liberal media is now trying to make issue of white racism against all things black including dogs? haha you know it...
