yeah.... but did he call them nappy?

4/11/2007 9:44:41 PM

I'm suprised he had the balls to say anything like this

4/11/2007 9:46:32 PM

Yeah, I wouldn't think he'd say anything like that.

Ballsy!

^ He's fine...or in any case it doesn't matter. Blacks have no one else to vote for in Britain except Labour, blacks are a small single-digit percentage of the electorate, and Blair's getting kicked out by his own party in six months anyway.

He is a lame duck. He can say whatever the fuck he wants.

4/11/2007 9:58:09 PM

4/11/2007 10:00:00 PM

i don't see the racism

and as has been said, he's out of office soon anyhow, he can say what is actually on his mind - this is a politician mind you, so listen up

it's regrettable that no leader in america could ever say anything like this and keep his/her job, unless he/she was black.

4/12/2007 4:45:17 AM

pretty soon its going to be considered racist to call an african american racist

those graphs are meaningless for this discussion...they're for the U.S., not the U.K.

^ That chart is much less interesting than the original with the overall population figures factored in ..

can anyone find a chart broken down by both income levels and then one broken down by population and income levels?

There aren't many blacks that can get away with it either. Look at Bill Cosby.
