Any non-white people anywhere on these forums?

The question all liberals demand be asked of every business is asked of them.

Will the people who have nothing better to do than count the honkies at a TEA Party rally while discounting people like Allen West gladly step-up and display their anti-racist credentials?

5. I don't know. I don't usually ask people about their ethnicity here.
 Or anywhere for that matter. 

That's all liberalism does ask.

What's wrong with asking the Affirmative Action crowd?

12. Why do you ask? That's what I wonder.

The answer to your question is that yes, there are. But there's no requirement on DU to reveal personal information, so you won't find that in people's profiles.

Ditto at good ol' CC here.

I guess we're just as awesomely racially enlightened as DU, huh?

13. Hit and Run Bullshit
 Piss off!

Kinda like when some bureaucrat swoops in from a few thousand miles away, counts your employees, then divides them into groups by every criteria except how they serve your customers. If he doesn't like what he sees then you spend years paying lawyers to minimize the savaging you're going to take in court from fines and lawsuits.

Only you get to say "Piss off!" If the employer does that he can have his property seized and thrown in jail.

If this is the system liberals want why aren't they happy to lead from the front?

14. No, we have a strict policy here on DU
 to admit only Aryan peoples to our forums.

I always thought the color criteria was: shades of pinko up to undiluted Red.

19. They'll have to attend the next DU meetup to verify that, though.
 We all look like Paris Hilton, sorta.

Not if your picture threads are any indication.

18. I've got blond hair and blue eyes but I've got more soul than almost all white
 people I see and more soul than many non-white people I see. Does that count?

You're pretty fly for a white guy.

According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

Hey now, Paris has had some black in her........
“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”
