Re: [MBZ] Hood star and the people that wear hoods
Donald, you do have a point that hits me personally, even though the statistics of that election were a lot less likely to garner support from those who didn't vote for him than are the results of this election. By the time he actually won an election he had done so many things I could not support that it was pretty difficult then also. Your point is still valid though, and I did not support him willingly - nor did I actively seek to have him fail [as I see in some emails today.] I will say that I have more support for him today because of what I think are changes in his methods if not his policy. As I have said before, I will continue to feel that if he had gone into office more like he is today he would be able to leave office more like he entered it. Approval rates in the gutter might seem totally because of the economy, but I think also reflect the 'cowboy' attitude I saw in his early years. I think he has learned a lot from his years in office.

Re: [MBZ] Hood star and the people that wear hoods
From my experience working with blacks professionally and having a son who is black, the use of the term within the racial group is quite different than the use of the term from outside the group. One is 'in the family' and the other is always an insult. Remember when Ted Danson used blackface to deliver what would have been Woopi Goldberg's routine to a black audience? It would have been funny if she had delivered it, but was offensive [and she didn't understand why] because he did it. I can call my brother a conservative redneck [he is] but anyone outside the family best be careful how they address one of the people I admire greatly for his personal character. I don't make the rules, I just call 'em as I see 'em.

Re: [MBZ] Hood star and the people that wear hoods
i'm more sure that it isn't polio than anything else. my issue is that everyone makes this polio claim. if you go to hyde park, all they do is talk about his polio. obviously, he suffered from a disabling malady, but to just keep repeated was polio doesn't seem right to me. on a side note, i went bowling today with the church. you'd think this to be a pretty safe activity, but my knees now are functioning particularly poorly after bowling 3 games. i remember when the local bowling center back in queens in the early 80s would have $1 games during weekdays and i'd bowl 15 to 25 games in a day with no ill effect whatever. guess a quarter century of abuse can do that to a fella.
