Notice, I am still not as big a racist as I used to be, but I stopped and put "one's" instead of "your," like you thought I might be referring to -- I dunno! -- self-lynching?, here. What an ass I am. Anyway, I'm gonna go watch 5 hours of UPN programming so I can feel superiorly white-liberal again. Ah, the phrase "fool in fool's clothing" was made for me. By me.
