Precisely. I completely agree. I think the litmus test for racism is based upon whether or not someone rejects all Blacks or all Whites. I welcome the presence of many conservative Blacks who have fully assimilated into our European culture, which rules out the possibility that I am racist. I racist would reject all Blacks and see himself as superior to all Blacks. I do neither. In contrast, the fact that jlallen had a very hard time and struggled before finally conceding that Blacks can join The Sons of Italy -- "if a Black Italian exists, but none do" LOL! -- speaks volumes about his own racism. He obviously did not want to openly answer that question and he made that very clear before finally saying that the bylaws wouldn't prevent a Black Italian from joining his all-White group. Then, he had the temerity to compare his all-White group's bylaws to the CBC's bylaws. LOL. The bottom line is that Blacks CAN join The Sons of Italy (provided that they have Italian lineage), but Whites are FORBIDDEN from joining the Congressional Black Caucus. Of course, jlallen is quick to remind us that there are no Black Italians, as though his all-White club is safe from that possibility! LOL! Now, before jllallen interjects that the CBCs bylaws do not prevent Whites from joining, let me remind everyone that Whites have attempted to join the CBC and were rejected on the basis of race. In summary, jlallen's behavior is very confusing. On the one hand, he publicly rails against what he perceives as "racism" against the Obamas, but he also expresses racism toward Black Italians by denying their existence, and racism toward Whites by claiming that we deserve lesser treatment than Blacks. The man is a puzzle of confliction and confusion. -g- I seriously think he needs help.
