Out of work since August 2008 after my company was bought by a Canadian company, the Los Angeles office was closed and my job was exported to Canada. I will tell the tales of the unemployed with as much humor as I can.http://www.killersausage.com/noreply@blogger.com (retrodav)Blogger74125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7140660097264360762.post-6748624799769958308Wed, 11 Nov 2009 01:36:00 +00002009-11-10T17:38:31.213-08:00The Daily Show With Jon StewartMon - Thurs 11p / 10cThe Men Who Stare at Voteswww.thedailyshow.comDaily Show Full EpisodesPolitical HumorHealth Care Crisis© The Daily Show and Comedy Central.

She backtracked from the remarks later, explaining that she hadn't really understood the racial implications of "great white hope".At first I thought this is just an error of ignorance.
