To go off on a bit of a tangent. It is sentiment like this that is why the Republicans are having a hard time with minorities. You could have easily made the argument that Susan Rice is incompetent and like so many incompetent people both inside and out of government has failed upwards, but instead you had to bring affirmative action into it.
Yes there are many on the left who claim all criticism of minorities is racist which clearly is not true, but at the same time those arguments would ring more hollow if there wasn't many examples of people in the right bringing race into things for no reason.

Then why doesn't the left have trouble with minorities when they call a brilliant woman like Condoleeza Rice a "house Ni***er"

Can you provide a link to that or are you just quoting from memory?

What's your point? Are you trying to excuse your mildly veiled racism? Is Susan Rice actually an affirmative action beneficiary? How about addressing NC Tiger's comments about her?

Not only does the Left have no problem with it, they are doing it.
As FM accurately alludes, this BS "cartoon" . . .
. . . WAS PUBLISHED BY THE NEW YORK TIMES !

I will say anything by Ted Rall is by definition idiotic, and that certainly qualifies.
I would note that many on the left agree his work is awful and that is why on March 15, 2004 his work stopped appearing on the website of the NYtimes, it was never in the paper that I am aware of, and was all deleted from the archives. LINK The work you show seems to be from July of that year, so this never had the NY times imprint.
Do you have any examples that the person making the racist comments about Condeleeza Rice did not suffer consequences? Do you have any examples from someone who wasn't already marginalized because of their prior terrible views?

another . . . . from the NYTimes. Maybe this bigot was "scrubbed" too?
Horrible!
The language, implications, illustrations directed by the left at Black Conservatives are often grotesque iterations of deep-rooted ugliness, and would be better suited for KKK meetings than the pages of US news publications

An allusion to the slave housekeeper from Gone With the Wind
