Burt Prelutzky wrote another gem . He said "But if Mrs. Clinton wins, even though she's a woman I think the Republicans in the House and
Senate would feel free to oppose her policies and attack her credibility. However if Mr. Obama were to win, I fear that a great many conservative
politicians who lack my intestinal fortitude would bite their tongues rather than risk being called a racist."
Now this is an idea which hadn't occurred to me nor have I read it anywhere else, but with the climate the way it is it wouldn't surprise me at all.
I read somewhere else that Obama can say "a typical white woman" when talking about his grandmother, but if a white person talked about a
"typical black woman" there would be screams of racism.
