10. Peyton Manning too? What is it with NFL quarterbacks?
Troy Aikman, John Elway, Dan Marino, Kurt Warner - all idiot Bushbots. Seems as if they took too many sacks over the years.

16. Jack Kemp, former Bills QB in 60s is a GOPer. So is Steve Largent.
Both are GOP congressmen. Must be, in their minds, more manly to be a repuke.

Heath Shuler, congressman from North Carolina's 11th CD.

6. When you see two African-American owners in the Super Bowl....
Then Barack Obama's candidacy would be as normal as it ought to be......

Nevertheless, it's progress.

11. Sounds
like high school football and some popularity contest thing.

Don't mean to rain on the parade but that's the sort of thing that this conjurs.

Hopefully we'll see a President who will provide Universal health care and slash the bloated Pentagon budget. I'll vote for that creature even if they are turquoise.

12. Of course it will. Because not only do all black people think alike....
... but the same things happen to them at the same time, they eat the same things...

Sheesh.

13. Oh good grief,
Edited on Sun Jan-21-07 11:28 PM by Kajsa
I see the OP's point without any
conjecture of racial stereotypes.

Why is it that many people see this as a milestone
for African-Americans( including African-Americans, themselves)
but you see it as racial stereotyping?

WTH?!?
