Darker than Barbie? You`re probably a terrorist.

[democrank]

This is one of those days that I`m grateful I have white skin and old lady gray hair. I don`t look like one of Bush`s "terrorists" so I`m probably not going to end up on a torture plane to Waterboardistan.

After reading some of Bush`s comments during his "press conference" today, I`m beginning to lean toward using a tip line to turn in anyone darker than Barbie. I just can`t take chances anymore.
Not with random hair gels, not with that Virginia-born Mr. Sidarth Senator Allen recently welcomed to America.

Why do you think Bush avoids rubbing elbows with the Black Caucus? The campers in New Orleans? He can`t take any chances either. Has to stick with what he knows. Just like Senator Allen. If we go along with all this mixing, we`ll have gated communities filled with...well...terrorists or sorta-like terrorists. Then neighborhood barbecues and car pooling will be out the window.

Fear is a patriotic thing. So is suspicion of anyone who doesn`t resemble The Framers. That`s why Rummy developed his shoot first, ask questions later policy. So, if you so much as hear a hint of a quack, look everywhere until you find a duck, then kill it.

1. Damn, I'm darker than Barbie......

Which must be why my hubby and I were accompanied Off the place by the FBI, the last time we flew Boston back to San Francisco!


We wrote a letter to Homeland Security telling them that this was the case (Flight attendant was upset because my husband disobeyed her order, and used the restroom at a time when the "Stay in your seats" lights were on (which was 5 out of the 6 hour flight)! Of course, the other folks who got up during the same time were as white as Barbie, so for them, it was "no problem").

4. She was.....and kept referring to the fact that since 9/11

everything was different! Kid you not!:eyes:

As she was following my hubby back to his seat...chastising him in a loud voice for disobeying her...because he entered the bathroom to relieve himself prior to going back to his seat....

She was saying......You are to follow my instructions, otherwise you are creating a disruption!

I calmly butted in (since she was a woman, and so am I--and I didn't want my husband to be put in the position of telling her to kiss his ass) and asked her why she was treating my husband like 3 years old.

She looked at me (and if looks could kill, I'd be dead) and said...OK, that's it! I'm going to tell the pilots on both of you!

At the end of the flight, the pilot announced at everyone was to remain in their seats, and "officials" were coming on board to escort some people off.

We actually weren't surprised!

That was American Airlines! Won't be flying with them ever more!

3. Bush*co's simple formula

Brown people are sitting on the oil (Mid Easterners, Cubans, Mexicans, etc)
+ Brown people are (evil, a threat, a problem, etc)
= Attack brown people and take the oil
IMHO that, and not the hokey pokey, is what it's all about.

PS : Waterboardistan? Can I borrow that?

5. Thankyou for the warning

I never relized how much danger I've been in having a black employer, and black co-workers! I'm lucky that they havn't bombed me yet. Should I quit my job? And I nearly forgot, my 1y/o god-daughter is muslim!I better make sure she doesn't start hiding gaterade in her nappy.
