Just before Thanksgiving last week, the liberal site Slate dredged up a 2010 piece claiming that the reason Americans love the white meat on a turkey is because we are all racists. The rant written by Ron Rosenbaum is a great example of all that is wrong with the race baiting left in America these days. It is a sad example that literally everything under the sun is just another excuse for the far left to cry racism. You see, Rosenbaum wants you to know that if you are a white meat eater, the only reason you could be so stupid to like that "tasteless" part of the turkey is because, you guessed it, you are a racist. Rosenbaum wonders about the racism of liking white meat. "It was enough to make me wonder whether there could be a racial, if not racist, subtext here," he wrote. http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Journalism/2012/11/26/Slate-If-You-Like-The-White-Turkey-Meat-You-Are-A-Racist {{{{ Removed attack.

You know this stuff is on par with how PeTA was claiming that eating chicken was equivalent to the Holocaust. Honestly, they are either mentally ill or they are morons.

Do you know anything about that author? He once published "An Agnostic Manifesto" in response to the rise of New Atheism. As well as The Secret Parts of Fortune: Three Decades of Intense Investigations and Edgy Enthusiasms The title should give you some insight into his writing style. The Shakespeare Wars: Clashing Scholars, Public Fiascos, Palace Coups Is another of his writings. Lets just say that the piece in Slate was written with the tongue planted firmly in the cheek. No I did not read the article, because I made the statement earlier, I don't like turkey, but seeing as though you say it is tongue in cheek, I will go read it for fun. Won't change my attitude to turkey, or peas for that matter..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
