Little Miss Attila seems to agree with Cobb, who says talk about race never works. He says it’s because we can’t get past our own self-interest. She would like to see a national shut-up about race, instead of the conversation Barry implies we’re going to be having with him until November. As Cobb says, everyone else can rest easy, this is just a black-white thing. Lucky them. Barry has no choice, of course, having painted himself into a corner with what Hitchens calls his thug priest. He now has to run as a black candidate. But we don’t have to listen to him. LMA, meanwhile, finds that some white kids are helping to undermine the ancient division by undercutting the famous racial slur. They go around calling each other "my niggah." It’s all in the spelling, and the pronunciation. I agree with LMA, however, that Jeremiah Wright, Minister Farrakhan and O.J. Simpson are worthy of the original spelling and pronunciation.
