I work in a prison and heard this heartwarming tale from an inmate:
During a volleyball game on the rec field, a group of white inmates were playing against some Mexican inmates (the divides in prison are usually like this.) Anyway, the ball was called out. How far out was it? The paisano held his hands a bit apart and said, "Five dollar."

J. Dryden is so right. Since the Obama family entered the White House, the amount of advertising featuring non-white people of various brown shades has skyrocketed. I get my lady-centric commericals AND my "urban" themed commericals!

Free market is a Libertarian idea.
Republicans just want to kill people.
