she is and who she has angered. One was apparently a "close

<DIV><FONT face=Candara color=#000080 size=4>I am NOT a blonde. Do you see

millions more blondes on this earth than God ever created. They are only
blonde thanks to Clairol and friends. I have a feeling that Scandinavians
are smarter than bottle blondes!</FONT></DIV>

<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><FONT face=Candara color=#000080 size=4></FONT> </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>
