Nappy-headed Ho?... "a drop in the ocean of barbaric filth and anti-female hatred"

[jAZ]

I read Malkin's article the other day and the sentiment is right... I think everyone agrees (even Jesse Jackson).

I just thought it was amazing that it's ok to see the issue as a verbal insult against women ("No woman deserves that" and "Imus's misogynist mockery"), but not as an insult against blacks ("A pox on all their race-baiting houses.").

She's gender "baiting" exactly the same as she accuses Jackson and Sharpton of doing with race.

It's a racist and sexist comment. That she has a political agenda against racial inequity and hatred, and would (as a woman) prefer to make it about gender inequity and hatred... says a lot about how useful her POV is in this discussion.

Which is to say, her politically motivated over-simplification hurts the discussion more than it helps. Exactly like Sharpton's and Jackson's (and ultimately Imus' entire approach).
