&gt; Sorry, Bev. I shouldn't have said that anyone who sees Diddy as a
spokesman for African Americans is an idiot. I should have said such a person
&quot;is entirely smug in his prejudices and fears, wrapping them around him
like a warm blanket while sipping from the cup of bitterness in front of a fire

&gt; &gt; That's right. It's a national holiday. We celebrate it every year in<br>
&gt; &gt; <st1:City w:st="on">Moscow</st1:City> and <st1:State w:st="on">Idaho</st1:State>

&gt; &gt; It's right there on my calendar but I've never noticed it.<br>

&gt; &gt; And you have confirmed my secret suspicions of you.<br>
&gt; &gt; <br>
&gt; &gt; You are a racist.<br>
&gt; &gt; <br>
&gt; &gt; To call anyone who thinks Diddy speaks for African Americans &quot;an<br>
&gt; &gt; idiot&quot; makes you a racist and an oppressor of all those African<br>
&gt; &gt; Americans who look up to Diddy as their official peeps and spokesman.<br>
&gt; &gt; <br>
&gt; &gt; But now you have me wondering if you think that anyone who thinks<br>
&gt; &gt; Bishop Dave Thomas speaks for African Americans is an idiot.<br>

&gt; &gt; Gov.<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; Sarah Palin to voice discontent with her minority hiring record.
Palin's<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; response, which was first reported by journalist Earl Ofari
Hutchinson,<br>
&gt; &gt; only<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; compounded her icy relationship with her African-American

&gt; &gt; &gt; of <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Alaska</st1:place></st1:State>,
told me that Palin stated defiantly that she had no intention<br>
&gt; &gt; to<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; hire any minority staffers. And according to Bishop Dave Thomas,

 <st1:PlaceType w:st="on">Temple</st1:PlaceType></st1:place>, the<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; Palin administration excluded black business owners from the
Alaskan oil<br>
&gt; &gt; and<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; gas pipeline board. &quot;We wasn't even able or allowed to go

&gt; &gt; &gt; Alaskan governor in recent memory to not recognize the

hire any black<br>
