When you're perpetually aggrieved about everything, that's when. The Los Angeles NAACP has hauled out the tiresome argument that a Hallmark greeting card that has been out 3 years is racist because it refers to "black holes," which they interpret as saying clearly "black whores." Yes, "black whores" really fits well with the whole solar system theme of the graduation card. What's really amazing is seeing these supposedly intelligent people, all dressed up and bug eyed about how wounded they are that they've been disrespected because of a comment on a talking graduation card. Chalk this up to other inane racist controversies, such as the use of the word "niggardly" by a politician or the accusation that the tea parties are racist because they don't like the spendthrift Obama, who happens to be half black.
