    'black hole'

    Commissioner John Wiley Price certainly is one. I lived in Dallas for years and years, this guy's picture in in the dictionary to highlight the meaning of the word, fool.

    Mike - typical white guy. The USA does have universal healthcare, but you have to pay for it. D'oh. Thomas Mann - "Tolerance becomes a crime when applied to evil." The NYT - my leftist brochure. Calling an illegal alien an “undocumented immigrant” is like calling a drug dealer an “unlicensed pharmacist”. God doesn't believe in atheists, therefore they don't exist.

    I liked this comment:

    Price needs to learn the difference between a "black hole" and a "black a-hole"...the former is a figure of speech; the latter describes jerks like him.

                      Yes. And the word "untouchable" is not muttered only behind closed doors, too.

                        I see his point, a bit. Saying the office had become a hole would be derogatory about the office. 'Hole' itself is a bad thing to say about a place of residence or work. If the said hole was alleged to have become a hole under black management, it could be called a 'black hole'.

                          So should I get upset when a brown-skinned weatherman talks about a dangerous amount of snowfall as creating "whiteout" conditions? The idiot had no point. The phrase black hole was coined by John Wheeler in the '60's to describe the effect of a Schwarzschild singularity. Period. End of story. Game, Set, and Match.

                                This story brings back memories of Dallas in the late 80s/early 90s... Diane Ragsdale screaming "Racist!" at citizens during city council meetings, John Wiley Price tearing wind shield wippers off and clotheslining hapless joggers during protests... I'm sure I've forgotten a few other incidents.
