Nancy was there. You'd know that if you were paying attention instead of
carrying on your own meeting with "that white woman" you adore. Everyone in the
room laughed except for you and your mini-meeting friends. Perhaps if "that
white woman" hadn't carried on under her breath in a voice loud enough for
everyone to hear, no one would have felt a need to respond to "that white
woman." And BTW, the black woman you are referring to did not allude to
anything.... she made a statement of fact quite emphatically.
Only someone like you would characterize this interaction as racial.
Now as for setting an example for one's constituency... when are you going to
stand up for your constituency and reveal what you know about mog?
