Liberals love skin color. It serves as their means to judge, make excuses, and promote “equality” where there’s no inequality. Their love for skin color, along with their harebrained optimism, allows them to keep the stranglehold they have on minority support by making something out of nothing. There is no racism problem in the United States, but I don’t suppose liberals will be content until there is literally not a single racist on American soil. Anyone who overtly discriminates based on race instantly and rightly becomes a social pariah. Of course, there are racists out and about, but they hide their prejudices the same way a sexual predator hides at home (at least they have Myspace now). The ubiquitous “diversity” movement is a mere façade to show minorities that the liberals care about them. That is why liberals cater to minorities by promoting (or insulting them) with affirmative action (you’re not good enough to make it on your own merit), various periods of culture focus like “Black History Month” (no one cares, so we’ll shove it down their white, Republican throats), and by sending the pit bulls (favorites are Sharpton and Jackson) to avoid taking personal responsibility and assuring minorities that there’s a serious injustice in the air.

All of this essentially creates more segregation. Why are there Latin Grammy Awards, articles like "The Top 50: The Most Influential Minorities in Cable”, or Raza and Black Graduation Celebrations at Sonoma State University? Are these people not successful enough to be put on the same level as white people? Of course they are, so how about that old melting pot?

I’ll come right out and say it: I believe homosexuality is a sin and rather grotesque. I also believe lying is a sin, and eating fast foot everyday is digusting. I sin every day, so I would be a hypocritical fool to despise homosexuals because of their behavior and lifestyle. My problem lies with the militant, in-your-face movement that dominates the gay agenda on college campuses. The drag contest held in the Memorial Union Ballroom on November 3^rd was nothing but a lecherous display put on by people who hate conservatives. I would have found the picture proudly displayed on the front page of the Daily Barometer to be in bad taste even if it depicted a married man and woman. If gays want to be taken seriously as people who are simply attracted to the same sex, here’s some advice: Don’t prance around in a thong with anti-Bush rhetoric written on your chest. Coming out of the closet doesn’t mean you have to live a piquant lifestyle void of all reason and responsibility.

Defending Islam shouldn’t be such an arduous task. There are millions of decent, peaceful people who practice the religion, but of course there are radicals who wish to spread jihad. Don’t tell bin Laden and company that Islam doesn’t fuel their movement, or they’ll make a home video of your decapitation. Listen to these crackpots. Read about their decree. These psychos hate everyone who isn’t like them, but we’re too busy debating over whether or not the architect of the 9-11 attacks was waterboarded.

Wait! What about the Crusades? What about fundamentalist Christians who blow up abortion clinics? What about the Spanish Inquisition? Besides the obvious fact that it’s either history long gone or nowhere near the same, grand scale as radical Islam, it still fails to address the issue. When an attack worse than 9-11 occurs, will anyone say, “Yeah, but what about the Crusades?”

If you are a part of “stupid middle America” who prefers apathy to solid opinion, beware of the Daily Barometer’s frequent attacks on Capitalism and western ideals. The cretins on that staff are probably still trying to figure out why America brought the 9-11 attacks upon itself through disrespect of foreigners and expansion of pernicious western thought. That is, if their one-dimensional writers can branch out just a tiny bit and stop writing about queers, Indians, and the “illegal” war in Iraq.
