		<description><![CDATA[Well, well, well, looks like 80% of black voters went for Obama. So who was it that said that voters no longer vote along tribal lines? There are some, but they are sadly in the minority, at least in South Carolina.

		<description><![CDATA[Democrat voters can be either racist or sexist. If you vote Republican, you can be both racist AND sexist. The perfect candidate to unite both parties would have NO race OR sex, or known age. Thankfully, there is such a being- Michael Jackson! America, the land with everything!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I will not pay Nick.

Still back to the posting:

The Clinton News Network is part of a much wider thing - something that dominates many institutions in the United States and beyond.

The definition of &quot;diversity&quot;.

In the &quot;old days&quot; (as recently as the 1970&#039;s in Britain) &quot;diversity&quot; in a college politics department (and so on) meant &quot;diversity of opinion&quot; - people with different points of view.

Now &quot;diversity&quot; means things like race, sex, sexuality, disabled (differently abled)....... and so on.

So a college department or a network newsroom can be filled by people who all have the same basic (LEFTIST) set of political opinions and social attitudes and be called &quot;diverse&quot; or &quot;an example of diversity&quot;.

The idea that someone could not hold the basic poltical opinions that both Senator Clinton and Senator Obama share, does not really enter the thoughts of the C.N.N. people (anyone who does not share these basic opinions is a space monster as far as they are concerned). So voting choices have to be on race, sex and so on.]]></description>
