<DIV>You'll have to fill me in on this Jeanene. What is the "Nazi Slime Disease"
a reference to? It's not something I said. Its not something greenBubble said.
It's not something you said. If you think it's something I called you, I didn't.
You are often wrong, unlike me, who makes occasional mistakes just to remind
myself that I'm not perfect, but I have never referred to you in such insulting
language. I have a vague sense that perhaps those who make up the right and left
wings of the in-the-know, avante garde, intellectual elite, those infatuated
with the little boy in the white house and those who are too busy despising him
to make a credible effort at replacing him, are all quite familiar with Ms.
Coulter and expect the rest of us to know her entire biography, her best-selling
novels (if any), and which TV shows she has appeared on. Same with those who
spend 28 hours a day surfing the web while their children starve to death.
Sorry, she just doesn't rate that kind of attention in my book.</DIV>

<DIV>Now, as to dumb blondes, I have always said that my only prejudice is a
fondness for dumb blonde jokes. (GCFL has some of the best, although there is
one really good one I haven't seen here yet.) I have always made exceptions for
present company, whoever that might be, because what is amusing about any
stereotype is that it never fits neatly every person with the specific
characteristic described. If you happen to be blonde (you haven't shared a
photograph with the discussion group), consider yourself excepted as present
company. I enjoy dumb blonde jokes because our culture, which we all consider
degenerate for very different reasons, exalts blondes, and in fact exalts
blondes who show off their "good" (?!?) looks and live off unearned income,
without any reference to their having a brain in their heads. (Joke told to me
by a blonde woman, a perfectly intelligent one: "What do you call a blonde with
two brain cells? Pregnant.") I know blonde doesn't define a person's
intelligence. Those with blonde hair who try to live up to the cultural
stereotype are the inspiration for dumb blonde jokes, just as those persons with
a high epidermal melanin concentration who try to live up to the worst
stereotypes of white supremacy are the inspiration for Chris Rock to continue
using language that would make his great-grandmother turn over in her
grave.</DIV>
