    In basso's defense, Pierre Ferrand is badass cognac. It's all XO and is really cheap. Best value out there IMO.

    Did you write the thread title or did the DOJ?

    No where in the article that you post does the DOJ mention the intelligence of black voters.

    If I made a thread titled "basso: the right-wing are racist yuppies," does that mean you said it? It has "basso:" in the thread title!

    it's a pretty obvious inference.

    You inferred it. I don't see where they implied it at all.

    If you think it is it is a mistaken inference as I explained in an earlier post.

    You would be more correct to say that the DOJ thinks white voters are too dumb since the DOJ's argument is that white voters wouldn't vote for a black candidate without party affiliation. The article says nothing about how black voters would vote.

    Either way it makes no reference to the intelligence or lack of any voters. I would suggest you reread your article.

    I would suggest he simply read the article for the first time.

    I would suggest he either learn how to read or get over his obsession with blacks.

    Only if you're already inclined to think that way.

    no, the DOJ thinks white voters are too racist, which is equally offensive.

    And that is a valid argument but that still doesn't support the contention that DOJ thinks black voters are dumb. Again I would suggest rereading your article.

    i've read it many times, as apparently you, Major, and Rimmy have, and each of you has a different take. somehow only mine is "wrong."

    telling.

    I'm all for a frank discussion of race. This is not it.
