And I think most black people think this Al Sharpton character is a tool. Nevertheless, some people will always be offended and I think you are one of them.
What, can't I be an overly-sensitive, overly-PC, race/discrimination card-digging delicate soul; without being accused of being childish?:D I'm just trying to fit in with the today's population. What, no?0 -

Oprah is such a shallow simple-minded woman. Most talk-show hosts are.I necessarily have the passion for writing this, and you have the passion for condemning me; both of us are equally fools, equally the toys of destiny. Your nature is to do harm, mine is to love truth, and to make it public in spite of you. - Voltaire0

Care to back that up with any facts?
I am not a fan of her's (she annoys the hell out of me), but she has done more charity work and raised awareness of more causes then me, you or anyone on this board will do in their lives.
This was in her wikipedia entry:
In 1998, Winfrey began Oprah's Angel Network, a charity aimed at encouraging people around the world to make a difference in the lives of underprivileged others. Accordingly, Oprah's Angel Network supports charitable projects and provides grants to nonprofit organizations around the world that share this vision. To date, Oprah's Angel Network has raised more than $51,000,000 ($1 million of which was donated by Jon Bon Jovi). Winfrey personally covers all administrative costs associated with the charity, so 100% of all funds raised go to charity programs.[48]
Although Winfrey's show is known for raising money through her public charity and the cars and gifts she gives away on TV are often donated by corporations in exchange for publicity, behind the scenes Winfrey personally donates more of her own money to charity than any other show-business celebrity in America. In 2005 she became the first black person listed by Business Week as one of America's top 50 most generous philanthropists, having given an estimated $250 million.[49] Despite being the 235th richest American in 2005,[46] Winfrey was the 32nd most philanthropic. Her philanthropy has included a $10 million donation to Hurricane Katrina relief.[50] Winfrey also put 100 black men through college with $7 million in scholarships.[51]My whole life

does she put any white men through college?
I bet if Bill Gates only gave his billions to white folks the press would have a field day.
its like here in Britain we have the MOBO awards.. Music Of Black Origin... if i started a Music Of White Origin awards show then i'd be sent to prison or a supermarket or something
not that I care about the mobo's or anything, i just wonder why we CANT celebrate white culture without having a guilt complex.. i'm not even catholicoh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.0 -

You can be simple-minded and still donate to charity. A lot of people donate for social status and tax breaks. You can also be simple-minded and still be compassionate towards particular groups.I necessarily have the passion for writing this, and you have the passion for condemning me; both of us are equally fools, equally the toys of destiny.

Depending on the quantity of MSG I can have similar symptoms or....
Severe headaches, neckpain, intestinal discomfort, and an overall feeling of being ill. I haven't eaten anything with that crap in it, for over 15 years. Took me a long time to narrow it down to MSG, as what was causing the problems. At that time, I didn't know anything about MSG and it took a while before I found out about it.0 -

This feels like a localized pressure in my brain. Near the right side of my visual cortex, the pressure extends to my neck and ocipital and temporal lobes on the right side. It's how I imagine a tumor would feel. It could just be the weather too. I don't know, but it's quite uncomfortable.I necessarily have the passion for writing this, and you have the passion for condemning me; both of us are equally fools, equally the toys of destiny.

I know exactly what you're feeling and occassionally, I will get mildly similar symptoms in my sinuses cavities from high humidity or high pressure days.
But the MSG symptoms are much more severe and disturbing. I would suggest you refrain from eating anything that has it. Sounds like your body, much like mine, doesn't deal well with it.0 -

Jason appeared on CNN today. here is the youtube video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L5ZQXaXmCW4Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
And his tears fall and burn the garden green0 -
