Powerful Posting
Consuela from Afrogeeks has written a powerful post on race and the Democratic Party:
What we at this moment in the 21st century is a generation of black people born into a post-Civil Rights America, provided opportunities unimaginable to their parents, and rewarded with a world that, for many of us, is far more integrated than many could have hoped for. We have learned that a world defined completely by race (or gender or sexuality or religion) is an incredibly small world and have demanded, and continue to demand, that all aspects our identities and lives be taken seriously. We can’t be counted on to play the American race game as it’s always been played. We can’t be counted on to choose blackness over our gender or sexuality or class or religion.
But that doesn’t mean blackness doesn’t matter. That race doesn’t still have a profound effect on our day to day to existence. . .

How can you trust a women married to a sociopath like Bill Clinton.
Clinton accused of 1978 hotel rape
This past sexual conduct after a former campaign worker alleged that he raped her 21 years ago.
Juanita Broaddrick, who now runs a nursing-home business in Arkansas, told the Wall Street Journal that Mr Clinton raped her in the Camelot Hotel in Little Rock in 1978, when he was the state attorney-general.
Mr Clinton persuaded Mrs Broaddrick to have coffee with him in her hotel room during a conference of nursing home administrators in 1978. She alleges that he then forced her on to the bed, where he held her down, bit her lips and raped her.
When it was over, Mrs Broaddrick claims, Mr Clinton told her that she should not worry because he was sterile due to a bout of childhood mumps.
“This is the part that always stays in my mind - the way he put on his sunglasses. Then he looked at me and said ‘You better put some ice on that’. Then he left.”
She was found in a state of shock. In reported speech, she is said to have alleged that Mrs Broaddrick’s lips were discoloured and swollen to twice their normal size and the crotch of her tights was torn.
She just stayed on the bed and kept repeating ‘I can’t believe what happened’,”
1994 January 20 Mrs Broaddrick finally gave NBC television what is said to be her first media interview confirming the original rape allegation.
Scheduled for airing on January 29, the NBC interview has not yet been broadcast. NBC has described it as a “work in progress” - leading to rumours that the White House had put pressure on the network to withhold the story.
The allegations came at a time when many of those involved in the past year’s presidential crisis - including Monica Lewinsky, Linda Tripp, Paula Jones and Gennifer Flowers.
Mrs Broaddrick in 1991 she was called out of a meeting to discover Mr Clinton waiting for her.
He told her he wished to apologise and asked what he could do to make things up to her. Mrs Broaddrick said he could do nothing, and walked away.
