Browsing the Margaret Cho website

"African Americans have Clarence Thomas and Condoleeza Rice. There's a new race traitor on the block, and her name's Michelle!" ~Margaret Cho on an Asian-American conservative.

Jesus christ Margaret... so people of different races can't hold their own opinions now? Clarence Thomas is an idiot who doesn't belong on the Supreme Court, but that doesn't prove her point - Condoleezza Rice knows exactly what she believes and why, and she's black, and so what? I can't believe people say these sorts of things and get away with it. Tolerance is about learning to live with people whose views directly challenge yours. Without that uneasy coexistence, tolerance is an empty idea.
