The Daily Show’s piece was okay, but the one to watch is Colbert’s interview with Debra Dickerson. I love the way both shows expose the ignorance of racism.

Jon’s show reveals how ignorant racist white Americans are and Colbert’s show reveals how ignorant racist Black Americans are. These guys are functioning on Gliese 570A, 19.2 light years beyond any comedian on the planet.

When you see the Colbert interview, you will notice how racist Black Americans, in their attempt to adopt racist white American ways are becoming equally psychologically ill; exhibiting symptoms of schizophrenia and dementia.

If Debra Dickerson were to explore the roots of her beliefs, she would likely find that it was someone in her lineage, while taking care of their ailing white master, coined the phrase, “Massah, we sick?” Or, “We sick, boss?”
