That's baloney.

It's POOR people, people! The Saudi Royals have brown skin. Condi & Colin have brown skin. The Cuban sugar barons in Fla. have brown skin.

It's not about brown or white. It's all about green.

1. Good point. It
should be "people who have no money and who therefore have no worth as human beings and who amount to shit."

2. Its not about money
Money has become meaningless. It is about simple power. Money is simply a means to power. Its value means nothing. Thus they will gladdly demolish the value of the dollar if it enables them to increase their hold on power.

3. i once had an English/American Lit professor from India. He referred to
himself as brown-skinned.

It is about brown-skinned ... white europeans are welcomed to this country without too much hassle. brown-skinned south americans are not.

Condoleezza Rice is not brown-skinned, she is black and so is Colin Powell.

But yes, if you are a brown-skinned person with money ... the bushes and other republicans will move heaven and earth to make you welcome.

it is about money. but it is about skin color too.
