How about calling it, ” FRAUD.” Or, “Putting the BLACK in blackmail.” Or perhaps most accurately, “DEMOCRAT.”
More black Americans murder each other every year than were lynched between 1865-1926, so the the use of a hangman’s noose as a symbol of tyranny directed at black Americans is a fraud. A better symbol would be the donkey, symbolizing a political party which has ensured that black Americans remained slaves until over 600,000 white Americans died finally ending slavery. No reparations have been offered to today’s surviving family members of these brave Union soldiers, nor do black Americans give thanks to these men each year. The donkey then used the KKK (see Senator James Byrd, (D)) to create Jim Crow and steal the effective citizenship of black Americans until the 1960s. Since then, the donkey has made sure that the culture of black Americans is mired in lies, fraud, rejection of education, disintegration of their families, and worst of all, enshrined the status of, “VICTEM” as the highest social status a black American can achieve. Most white American politicians are “weak and worthless,” and many are crooks and creeps, but almost every high level black American politician is either a crack pot, a crack head, a crook, or a creep – just look at those black Americans who “serve” as mayors, Governors, and members of Congress. Senator BO is a virtual copy of Bill Clinton, right down to the bevy of felons surrounding him. It is an embarrassment to all Americans and even worse for third world people who see that so many “people of color” who achieve political office in the US are scumbags and therefore what chance do they have in their countries?
The solutions for all Americans is obvious. Stop demanding crooked handouts from politicians and impoverish anyone who does, insisted on high character and strict honor and honesty from every member of government and ruin those who betray their oaths of office, reduce the salaries of those who serve so that they are actually serving and not just cashing in, make having served in government a badge of honor, recognize for achievement those who decrease the size and cost of government and weed out scumbags. Punish liars.
This would be a start.

Perhaps the Professor was trying to create her one “Wag the Dog” situation…

Why don’t they just codify this. “No minority shall be terminated from employment for any reason.” (other than voting Republican).

“We are terminating Madonna Constantine’s employment…subject to a hearing before a faculty committee”… .

Translation: It’s all about politics – if they like her, she’ll be back at work before the water gets hot; if they don’t like her but fear a lawsuit if her termination is made effective, she’ll still be back at work.

There is at least as much evidence the charges of racial harrassment/hate are false as there are true. The only reason to believe they are true is her word and she has been caught in one lie already.

I haven’t heard of any direct evidence; only circumstancial (time frame, etc.), indicating that this is a false discrimination claim. However, I wouldn’t be the least surprised if some came up. I just prefer to hold the ‘innocent until proven guilty’ position as paramount. Until that point, we’re trafficking in rumors.

I agree with you however, that her credibility is quite weak, and that chances are she is indeed a race-hustler.

Is anyone here African American? I’m not, but I’d love the opinion of someone who is.

Doesn’t this kind of stuff make you sick?

There’s no denying that there is still rascism out there. There always will be. Michelle certainly faces it now and again. And there are plenty of other “ism’s” out there, too.

Real discrimination is evil, and should be dealt with. But this kind of stuff is pathetic. This is the race baiting that we see in Obama and his friends, and it makes sane people sick.

Many of us have rejected muslims, in general, for the simple fact that so few of them have stepped up and condemned the terrorists they claim “don’t speak for them.”

It’s getting that way with African Americans. If not for Michael Steele, Bill Cosby, and the few other blacks, there would be no hope.

This is deplorable.

And it’s coming to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in less than a year…

Why I am I not surprised at her threats to sue anyone and everyone. At some point someone is going to pay her off simply to make her go away. And having done that she will claim vindication and be a hero to the whining left.

Will the NYPD PLEASE explain why the following quote was attributed to them by the AP on 10/12/07, on NorthJersey.com? (The link doesn’t exist anymore, but it was repetitively quoted by readers in the 10/12/07 MM thread on this subject.)

But police also ruled out any possibility that Constantine had hung the rope herself, saying “our victim is a victim.”

Why, according to AP, did the NYPD claim that Professor Madonna Constantine was a “victim” just days after the incident, and just shortly after receiving the security tape from University officials?

What was the evidence that quickly led the NYPD to deduce that, “our victim is a victim?”

Or was their immediate statement intended for another reason?

Someone spilled the beans to the NYTimes yesterday

Well, at least they don’t limit themselves to disclosing only US Military and CIA secrets. Equal-opportunity rats over there at the NYT.

Phony racism charges? Wait a minute.

Did some evidence come up that I didn’t hear about regarding the noose? Plagiarism, yeah there’s apparently enough evidence of it to fire her. . .but I’m withholding judgement on the idea that she planted the noose herself until there’s some hard evidence to that effect. I’ll be highly amused if some turns up though.

There is at least as much evidence the charges of racial harrassment/hate are false as there are true. The only reason to believe they are true is her word and she has been caught in one lie already.

But what about the noose incident that just happened to take place in the midst of the plagiarism probe?

Her credibility is weak to say the least. But it is an elction year. The NYPD may come up with the answer but the District Attorney won’t want to stir the water right about now.
