A woman chasing, pot smoking, black, blind governor. California is going to have to work fast to surpass New York in weirdness.

Yes, nothing weirder than a black or blind person. Thanks for the head's up.

Black, blind, pot smoking, woman chaser! You forgot the last two. In summary, those 4 components combined (I guess you didn't grasp that) ARE weird. Especially in light of them running the former gov out because of a prostitute.

I guess none of this is funny to someone living in California. Just normal?

And, and, and.........not or, or, or.

That you would even include black and blind, and then list them first among traits you regard as weird, would strike most sentient beings as being remarkably bigoted.

Why wouldn't you just list pot smoking and woman chasing instead of including the other two? Are you listing them in descending order of personal outrage?

I changed the order. Feel better? Doesn't change the premise of my post but if it makes you feel better.

BTW.........it wasn't me who constantly brought up the fact that Obama may be the first AA president in history. I guess that wasn't obvious to everyone, but the media constantly (along with the Dems) brought up the obvious. But if someone else brings it up, they are bigoted?

I like Michael Steele. Am I still a bigot? I have a friend who's dad is blind and respect him very much for the example he has been. Am i still a bigot?

I like Steve Wonder. I like Ray Charles. Am I still a bigot? Your rationale is nonsensical. But if it makes you superior, enjoy.

I realize you are devoting all of your intellectual gifts to the study of medicine and not logic, so I'll cut you some slack here. The commentators you cite who noted Obama's race did so because electing the first nonwhite president was a very remarkable and positive milestone. You noted the NY governor's race because you thought his race was "weird." If you need help with understanding the vast difference between those two points, please ask someone else.

I SAID the combo was weird. COMBO. Repeat after me.......COMBO. I even referred to the previous governor, who was white (in case you didn't know), and his run in with prostitutes and now this governor was doing the same.

What are you dedicating your intellectual gifts to? CUF? LOL

No, I dedicated them, vainly, to helping a sclerotic coot understand that including one's race and disability in describing a politician's weirdness was irrelevant, unnecessary and bigoted. But because I recognize that effort is a losing cause, I'll write no more on the topic so that you may have the last word. Be sure to use one of those effective emoticons that always enhances the persuasiveness of your message.

And since you think so little of CUF, I know I speak for a great many others by inviting you to stay away.

I'm not a bigot! I have blind friends and I like blind music!

You are bigoted, because the previous governor was Jewish.

Why can't you leave their people alone?

I'll bet he'd also let them use his bathroom.

I don't know, he's probably worried they'd pee all over the seat.
