Watching FBI director Comey testimony today – U.S. Representative Terri Sewell was called on for her questions – my first reaction was – I hope she don’t embarrass herself – so I googled and found she is a graduate of Harvard Law School –

ABSOLUTELY! Guilty as hell
Tell you a story – 9 years ago I was going to have stomach surgery – I was riding the elevator with this black doctor – I looked at him and mused to myself that he was probably there to visit his drug-abuser patient. … fast forward to the day I was to meet my surgeon – he was the same Dr. on the elevator – he was not only my surgeon – he was chairman of the department of surgery-----

she is a graduate of Harvard Law School –


...and Princeton...and Oxford.

The fact that this was your first thought says much about you, not black people.

Ah – don’t get holy about it – I didn’t say this was a material maxim - I said these were musings –said here to depict Effulgence rather than pathos

Two very different things- race and religion.

Your stereotype the person because she is black, like you are, now you talking bout being agnostic????? rolleyes

In Birdie's defense, we tend to stereotype black people in sports that way. However, members of Congress are some of the most accomplished and richest people in the Country, with the exception of a few.

How the hell did you get religion in this? -----
In kindergarten us kids understood agnostic as – prove it to me then I may believe you – that is the general usage….----- check google or Webster and try again ---and dont roll your eyes so much - it could be bad for sight
