Well i use it when appropriate (Clarence Thomas, Allen West, Jesse Lee Peterson...to name a few), and yeah...it's a scummy word. But some actions necessitate its use sometimes.
It really doesn't bother me that Rush used the term...i just think his logic is flawed. But whatever...i'm cool with it.
anyone with a different point of view who's black is an uncle tom. gotcha. good luck with that attitude. how should I refer to white male democrats?
Another fine demonstration of your usual tone deaf way of blowing past posts and merely reposting the same thing again and again and again. Green Mariner is talking about the unemployment rate, and you come back with the wealth gap. Most likely you think the two are one and the same.
I have some bad news for you, the wealth gap has increased exponentially for all Americans, not just for blacks. Those at the bottom of the income ladder always feel it the worst, but unless you are in the top one percent, white America hasn't done any better since the Reagan era in that regard.
Of course, you will probably just repost your little link again in response to this post, which is fine. I just wanted to set the record straight. I won't bother to tell you it's time for you to give up your delusions. That would be pointless.

Think about that really hard. Use your critical thinking skills.

You try using your critical thinking skills, if you have any. Again, those at the bottom of the income ladder always feel it the worst. But it's been growing at an obscene rate for both black and white America, whether you acknowledge it or not. Probably not. It doesn't fit with your rant.

Yeah, no one saw this link the last few times you posted it. It doesn't change the fact that the wealth gap in white America has grown equally as wide. So go ahead, repost the same link again and pretend that the wealth gap isn't obscene for every single one one of us down here in the 99%. But you can talk to yourself, I have better things to do than waste any more time on you parroting the same thing again and again.

No, it isn't. White wealth is 22 times that of Black wealth. Used to be an 11 times difference until Obama. Don't you read the data?
