I stayed up late consuming as much late-night TV as I could handle, which is nice for me because I can write off my insomnia as research. And the best thing I saw last night was this clip from “The Daily Show” in which Larry Wilmore talks about the changing face of America. Specifically, he addresses the complaints from conservative whites that “This is not the America I grew up in!!!” by putting them in a racial context. Or, as he puts it:
This is what happens when you have a melting pot. The stew gets darker.
Frankly, I’m looking forward to white people being a minority in America. Don’t get me wrong, I love being white: I like guitar music, hailing cabs, and tipping well. But man, a lot of us really suck. I mean, seriously: “This is not the America I grew up in”? Really? “Wah wah wah, we don’t shoot black people with fire hoses any more! Water fountains get used by people of all races!”
People who romanticize the past just make me hanker for some a them Obama death panels.

White people are the new black people? Matt Ufford is officially our Sinbad.
So we can all turn our pacific neighborhoods into South Central? Sign me up.
Come to Canada, in a few cities white people are already in the minority.

Yeah, you guys know all about ethnic diversity. Canada can totally school the U.S. in that regard.
This is great news, my kids will be able to enjoy the affirmative action I was never able to enjoy.
Won’t somebody please think of the children?
I’m fine with the whole melting pot, as long as the Jews remember their place. By which I mean, making comedy news shows for us every night.
If it weren’t for your people I’d still be in Africa. Gorgeous, politically stable Africa
The sheer fucking stupidity of some of these town hall protesters is mind-blowing.
Kent Brockman was right: Democracy just doesn’t work, people.

Hey, where the white women at?
“Come to Canada, in a few cities white people are already in the minority.”
Unless you’re talking Inuit or Indigenous settlements, I’d like to know exactly where that is.
You have to remember that Canadians are so white that Italians, Greeks, Hungarians, Spainards, People from Eastern part of England and anyone with more than .05% Native blood are all considered negroid.
So when are we deploying the nukes to dumbfuckistan so all of these Town Hall morons can get the radiation bath that their America has promised them?
those stupid hicks, dont they know I havent assuaged my white guilt yet?
White people have names like Lenny while black people have names like Carl
