Unintended Truths

So, commentator Glenn Beck has said, in response to President Obama's comments about Profesosr Gates's arrest, that the president has shown "a deep-seated hatred for white people or the white culture".

I'd like to argue with this, but unfortunately I agree. Mr. Beck is exactly right: targeting official suspicion at minorities is part of our culture.

As soon as I have some spare cash, I will try to find it. Money is extremely tight right now. I'm hoping there is enough work at the second job I just had to take to make it through the year. It's a substitute position, which means on-call when they need someone to fill in when one of the regulars is sick or goes on vacation. Things are really not good in Southern California right now. Everyone is hurtin' and they still haven't really settled the budget issue successfully.

Understood. We do what we can. Don't hesitate to ask the library. :D
