of that delightfully racist construct knows full well. Here's his REtweet today from just one of the authors, the first of three for the first article listed by Celerity, Chris Cadelago.




If Central Casting picked this face and build, it'd be to play a non-union NYC garbage man or extra on The Sopranos.

It's code for "Black Female". I saw this tweet and thought I'd share, but will prob delete. Not trying to be divisive. Have a nice day.

I was just too thick to figure it out myself! It's totally appropriate for the time.

Love Kamala Harris!

Being ambitious is an attribute for men, but it is a liability for a woman. Ambitious women are often described as angry, bossy, manipulative, nasty, etc.

The posters who for some mysterious reason are attracted to my posts, when they want "context" express themselves with rancor, entitled *demand* like being served without any effort of their own, and plain rudeness of the "Nobody knows what you're talking about" (while there are posts present clearly discussing the topic and even Reccing it). I missed the Annointing when they were designated to speak for "everybody/nobody".

Those members devote more energy to high-handed nanny-ism and prefer to attack certain fellow members than attacking wingnuts. Plus, there are other threads on the same topic, but those members don't even peep a post in *those* threads, preferring to leave droppings in their targets.

So, I'm sincere in thanking you.

And I appreciate your interesting posts on a regular basis.

That they're somehow too ambitious?

Peggysue's head cocked, listening, listening.

Crickets.

Yup, that's what I thought.

heading into middle age. Equal opportunity hitter on a number of Biden VP candidates, including white. On the right.



Natasha Korecki is white and female, not quite good looking enough to join the Fox bitches, so she's at Politico.



Marc Caputo, whom people will have seen around MSNBC and 60 Minutes



Those're just the authors of the "no remorse" hit.

The battle for power is huge, national and international, so big that race issues are merely tools used to divide voters, not the actual forces behind these hits. If the idea was to splinter off angry white voters by offending them with hits easily taken for racist on Warren, that's what we'd be seeing.
