A former blogoholic I have stopped the blog for now. I need to focus on teaching and living my life with my best Boo and pup! See you around the cybersphere!

Noooooooooooooo! Why is he talking to Jesse Jackson?!

Ok listen, I think Michael Richards is an ass - and that has nothing to do with the fact that I don't really like Seinfeld and never really have - and as such he should take his lumps for what he did. I mean come on, you don't just go screaming the n-bomb at the top of your lungs like 20 times and not mean it. (Michael Richards' n-bomb video is here)

Come on Kramer, who are you kidding? You didn't just completely call someone a you-know-what, you also advocated lynching that person with a fork! You're a common bigot!

Don't go on Jesse Jackson's show and try to plead your shock and horror at your words. And why Jesse Jackson? Since when is he the national "healer" for all black people? I thought Kanye held that role these days...

But as much as I think Richards is a jerk and this is insulting to all Americans (esp. African-Americans and yes Kramer, it's African-Americans, not Afro-Americans...) the public outcry just wouldn't be there if he was screaming about faggots or sinning gays.

That's pretty much acceptable anywhere in the US... from the pulpit to the oval office. Blah!

I couldn't agree more!

All of those "Seinfeld alumni" should realize that they had their moment in the sun, and now just retire into oblivion into their million dollar mansions in Beverly Hills...

If you are "outed" as a racist, that's what you do. You go on the (increasingly irrelevent) Jesse Jackson show and tell everyone that you need counseling.

And probably because Kanye has no time for him, nor a radio show. Not that I care for him, either.

Bah. MR is a racist. A NON-racist would never say such things. Ever.

Because that's what happens when Caucasian people are "caught" being racist...

*Sigh*

But no one (except a couple very close friends) have ever called me out when I've said something inappropriate about white people...

But then again, I'm "straight-looking" and un-identifiably brown...
