Unfortunately Mr. Benko, all the pluses that Mr. Cain brought to the table was not the focus. The focus became his supposed inappropriate shenanigans with a couple of co-workers, proven or not the deed is done. Oh! by the way what's an inappropriate shenanigan? Is that when you tell a female employee she looks nice today or as opposed to an appropriate shenanigan, asking the same female employee if your butt looks fat in these pants.

Professor Williams excellant article but you're preaching to the choir, and the choir is in full on chorus mode with the race baiting conductors at the helm. We know who those conductors are and they continue to permeate victim status ad nauseum. I like to suggest a solution to black on black crime but I don't rap and when I see a crime being committed I call the cops, Oh! I don't live in the "hood" and don't want too. We have embraced this culture of anti-intellectualism and victimhood that have been destroying us from the inside and all we continue to show for it is an endless array of crackheads, hoes and baby daddys and don't forget the latest phenomenon OCTOBLACKBABYDADDY-the sireing of 30 children by 11 different "strong" Black Women.

Marybeth when Roseane Barr, and for that matter Spike Lee starts tweeting the addresses of Black Drug Dealers and Gang Bangers who have killed more young Black men in the last decade than slave traders killed in the last 400 years, then and only then will I pay attention to this BS. In the mean time I'll wait until the official report comes out about this mess. We love to rush to judgement, who can forget the Jena Six debacle in Louisiana, did any of the Jena Six ever made it to College monies were raised to that end?

Way to go Michelle, Marion Barry could care less about Ward 8, he makes these comments to the Washington Post about Asian store owners hiring Ward 8 folks regardless of cultural situation, that's been tried and failed miserably. Black kids who had brief jobs at some of those stores were threatened and in a number of cases beaten up because they worked there. He wants store owners to participate in community events like Hip-Hop shows so when a fight breaks out, and invariably they do (for some idiotic reason) at all DC Hip-Hop community events, whom ever gets hurt, can sue the store owners for not providing adequate security. Excellent article Michelle.

Doug Giles! I love you man, not in a manly gay sought of way but in that Irish Spring sought of way. You're funny & you've been making sense for a lot of years. You are the beeknees my friend, keep up the stellar work.

Brent the so-called top 1% could easily be morphed into the top 10%. Those obviously wonderful hypocrites in your column are media whoo-ares/hustlers. It keeps them in the public eye as they show their so-called "social justice" side to sell a CD here a book & movie there, got to pay the mortgage on that 10,000 square foot palace and that kinda a moola don't grow on middle class trees. Then again if the middle class are buying said product, well... I must say that Micheal Moore has put out a string of comedic hits spanning a couple of decades plus he gets all his health care from Castro the man is a player player.

Another stellar article from the good Professor. My take is this, ever since the fall/failure of all the major communist and socialist empires, America is a major target of conversion to a hybrid version of these ideologies. All these little skirmiches testing our survivability, i.e. "911", "the teaching of social justice" as a panacea in our school systems, "the denigration of Judeo-christian principles" and the Islamisation of American/Western values is just a means to a radical end being done in the cloak of diversity. So far, I think we are resisting perfectly, this is a CAPITALIST system, if you don't like it get the fxxK out and take the ACLU and all the Unions with you.

Why couldn't Transparency Barry's administration split the differency and draft a memorandum in support of "Christian" LGBT's around the world along with their Muslim compatriots. Oh! don't try to say their are no Muslim LGBT's there are millions of them, we realise they have to remain quiet, we get it.

Hey LonPenn, You need to ask your Muslim friends about "THE CALIPHATE" how it makes them feel, what are their thoughts? Oh! Lon I'm specifically talking about your moderate Muslim friends the one's who wouldn't hurt a Western fly or an Israeli fly for that matter. Yeah them.

Hey LonPenn, you need to re-check your facts about recent Turkey, no last year Turkey or three years ago Turkey, how about just this summer Turkey. About 60% of the Turkish Government is Muslim Brotherhood, and there were attacks on Christians this summer in Turkey. Yeah really.
