Maybe you weren't watching the ECB.

I'm sure you're not prejudiced against whites, Schneibster.

A rather mean-spirited and inaccurate observation, IMO...
Playing the "hidden racism" card requires either evidence or subtlety...
Neither of which are evident...

I just don't like to see the kind of double standard the two threads represent. The fact is, the evidence against Strauss-Kahn is rather stronger than that against Cain - and the charges are also more severe, being rape and nonconsensual sex rather than harassment and consensual sex. Strauss-Kahn didn't even try to deny the sex, instead using the "it was consensual" excuse typical of sexual assault cases.
Lots of people who don't think they are racist are still all too willing to see black men as sexual predators, while excusing worse behavior in high caste whites.

The last sentence may well have some truth in it, but there is no evidence it applies to Da Schneib...

drew.
DSK is a whatever-can't-keep-iy-in-his-pants ...
what I don't believe about him is that he'd do sommething as stupid, senseless, and let's say it, insane, as what he's accused of, right when he was poised to be France's next president.

How do Socialists put up with corrupt crooks like Strauss-Kahn? I thought Socialism was about putting the common worker first? He lives like a fat cat capitalist on the public dime, that behavior should be demonized by "socialists"
A rational skeptic should be able to discuss and debate anything, no matter how much they may personally disagree with that point of view. Discussing a subject is not agreeing with it, but understanding it.

Bullshit. You're a conservatroid and you don't like seeing Cain dissed, but this guy's fair game 'cause he's white and "librul."

What? He sure doesn't live like the common man. Let's just say he has expensive tastes, something that should be unbecoming to a socialist. Especially when some of that is done on the IMF dime, which is eventually comes out of the tax payer's pocket.
I don't care if I hit the lottery, spending over $2K a night on a hotel suite would make me ill
