Some folks are just beyond parody.  They exist in a whole universe of absurdity.

JW Price is one of those folks.

Indeed, and that video proves it.  It was the interview that really put me over the edge.

I guess the next time the black weatherman on tv says that a winter storm may bring "white out conditions"
I'm going to have to call up and complain about his racist comments!

Instead of a miasma of smug, we have a miasma of dumb.  Sheesh...where do people get this stuff?  How can someone say it with a straight face?

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

According to news reports, the guy who originally made the comment has refused to apologize, saying that anyone who takes racial offense at his use of a scientific term needs psychological help.  grin

I was once at a scientific convention with a group of American and Soviet researchers back in the 80's.  One of the lectures had to do with black holes, referring to collapsed stellar objects.  Several of the Soviet researchers turned beet red, and it turns out that 'black hole" when translated to Russian, corresponds to a colloquial term for the anus.

They call them 'collapsed stellar objects' in Russia.
