    But he's a Democrat, so it generally goes ignored.

    Democrats can't be racist.

    Goes ignored? 'yab is probably most well known on this board as being a racist.

    If I could do it in less than 14 days, I'd dig up an NFL thread from a while back in which 'yab made a blatantly racist post regarding the combine and Wonderlic scores. The thread died with that post. But it's understandable. Some sacrifices have to be made. Can't call out someone too much if opportunities exist for a good cyber high-five down the road after a good rant about W, Cheney, the Iraq war, etc.

    Anyway, I watched the NBA for almost 10 minutes the other day because of Jeremy Lin. That's a story.

    And if it bothered you enough that you distinctly remember the thread, why didn't you call him out on it?

    I was waiting to see if any of my liberal friends would. You guys let me down. :(

    If it offended you, tear him a new one. Only you can truly express your dissatisfaction to your satisfaction. I've called him on it before, but I think most people just realize it is what it is and don't provide satisfaction by getting worked up.

    And if it makes you feel better, I don't remember the second video I saw on MTV.

    Who's more racist, y'ab or Archie Bunker?

    I have been wondering how Fox itself is getting off scot-free on that, or if they are. Somebody should have to answer a question about why they continue to employ him and haven't disciplined him in any way. It's among the basest and most vile racial attacks we've seen in the media, and I'm sure there were a lot of others -- Easterbrook for one -- that got people fired and were nowhere near as bad.
