Hell no, he isn’t. I don’t go into a foreign country and act a fool. I respect the people, customs, land (inlcuding property) and culture. Maybe he is you.

Not to mention that our actual black president was smart enough to see the value of science, technology, math and education. Definately one of the geekier presidents we’ve had.

Hey, now. W. was 40 when stopped getting drunk and doing blow.

All those people in the post last night saying that this was making Brazil look bad were something else. Yeah, there are certainly issues with police in Brazil, but they’re smart enough to know that you don’t go after famous Americans unless you’re 99 percent sure you’ve got a case.

Poor swimmers just being targeted by the meanies at the Brazil Police Department, right?

wait, you think Brazil is the one looking bad here? lol ok

How much attention were you paying when you supposedly read the article? There’s a photo of the “offending” outfit right up top. What exactly is unprofessional about that ensemble?

You’re completely missing the fact that she was effectively being punished for not wearing her black girl hair like a white girl. “Professional”…

If you don’t see an issue with

Retaliation against an employee grievance based on discriminatory dress code policy is okay in your book? It is actually illegal and violates Title VII....you say she was an idiot...her employers are the clear idiots who did not consult a employment attorney before changing the policy.
