Taking Obama as well read

From The Guardian: The would-be president's taste in fiction runs to full-bodied American classics like Moby Dick and heavyweight contemporary novelists such as Philip Roth, Toni Morrison and EL Doctorow (apparently his second favourite author after Shakespeare). Where George W...

Venus and Serena Williams dominate Wimbledon and continue their unprecedented journey

"A sister can be seen as someone who is both ourselves and very much not ourselves - a special kind of double." --Toni Morrison Yesterday in England, Venus and Serena Williams woke up together, had breakfast together, and then went out and completely dominated the world's most prestigious tennis tournament. In the women's final at Wimbledon , Venus beat Serena in a scintillating match that showcased...

well read

Quite a list. I'm not convinced Dan Brown belongs in this company, nor Rowling, and where the hell is Toni Morrison? Or Hemingway?! Nevertheless... The Big Read reckons that the average adult has only read 6 of the top 100 books they've printed. Well let's see. 1) Look at the list and bold those you have read. 2) Italicize those you intend to read. 3) Underline the books you LOVE. 4) Reprint this list...

The chilling effect of Google on gag-based feature writing

I woke up the other morning thinking to myself, you know what would be funny? To go from Toni Morrison's depiction of Bill Clinton as the first black president to the observation that Barack Obama, having missed his chance to be the first black president, could still be the first Jewish president: child [...]

Sun-Times: To Heck With Clinton, Obama ‘Our First Woman President’

-By Warner Todd Huston We can all painfully recall when back in 1998 New Yorker columnist Toni Morrison obsequiously called Bill Clinton our “first black president,” can't we? I suppose it isn't surprising that Morrison is now supporting Barack Obama since she is all about race, of course. It should be noted Obama is a tad [...]

Sun-Times: To Heck With Clinton, Obama 'Our First Woman President'

We can all painfully recall when back in 1998 New Yorker columnist Toni Morrison obsequiously called Bill Clinton our "first black president," can't we? I suppose it isn't surprising that Morrison is now supporting Barack Obama since she is all about race, of course. It should be noted Obama is a tad blacker than Bill Clinton so the race mongers of the left are finally streaming to him after a slow...

Bill Clinton's 'Black President' title renounced

Toni Morrison Takes it Back: Bill Clinton Wasn't the “First Black President”

Darryl Fears, in a Washington Post blog, quotes Toni Morrison, in a recent Time magazine interview, distancing herself from the Clintons by asserting that people who read her New Yorker description of Bill Clinton as “the first black president” misunderstood her. People misunderstood that phrase. I was deploring the way in which President Clinton was being [...]

This week’s state… Ohio!

Photo by spisharam I’m going out on my own again this week and will be curious to see Melanie Jones’ pick for Ohio in the future.

Toni Morrison: I never meant Clinton was the first black president

Ouch Do you regret referring to Bill Clinton as the first black President? —Justin Dews, Cambridge, Mass. MORRISON: People misunderstood that phrase. I was deploring the way in which President Clinton was being treated, vis-à-vis the sex scandal that was surrounding him. I said he was being treated like a black on the street, already guilty, already a perp. I have no idea what his real instincts are,...

Best line of the day about the election

“I thought about voting for Hillary at the beginning. I don't care that she is a woman. I need more than that. Neither [Obama's] race, his gender, her race or her gender was enough. I needed something else, and the something else was his wisdom.” Toni Morrison And, on her remark that Bill Clinton was the first [...]
