Al Jolson made a living off of black face entertainment.......at a time when there was segregation and extreme prejudice. All colors of folks paid to see him.

The movie "White Chicks", anyone? Haven't heard any groveling from the Wayans brothers, either. It has all gone way, way too far.

This whole hullabaloo is just ridiculous. If you hold the crap any of us did in High School and/or College against us @Annie, oh wait, and the Army/Marines/Air Force/Navy, let us not forget the Armed Forces many of us served in. Most of us done did some stupid chit pretty darn often and managed to make it this far. Holding a Politician to some absurd standard that reflects the mindset of these times rather than the mindset at the time of the action is just plain ignant!!!!! That is all.:soapbox:

Yep. It used to be common to call your buddy a f@g, and nobody cared. Just a chuckle or a middle finger thrown back and all was well.

Every body needs a cause , problem is most of these folks would not know a worthy cause if it walked up and slapped them sillier than they are.
