Forbes has a quote that welcomes one to their web site. This is the one for today. "The best thing about the future is that it comes only one day at a time." -Abraham Lincoln I would add that it comes in even smaller bits. Now lets think about racism-----the very word 'racism' is used too loosely in our society. If one uses any not-pc word or phrase that might offend a person-----it suddenly becomes racism and the person is labeled a racist. Racism is a 'gotcha word'. The 'gotcha word' has been used to destroy people politically. It was used on Former Governor George Allen placing him in the position of defending one word that he inadvertently used without knowing the derivation of the word. Even though Webb won the race because of this one word----Allen was the ultimate winner as those whom he had been perceived to have offended rallied around him. They knew the truth.
