Accounts are reporting that this is Democrat Senator Ben Cardin lololol

That's not a staffer. That's America with the Biden administration behind. What a most fitting symbol for these times.

Mikes... Dreaming... of a white.. Christmas!!

I just don't understand him, sometimes. Although there are some on here who would argue with Mike over anything, I think he makes some salient points on occasion. At other times, like this, his willful obtuseness is baffling.

In this case I'm thinking like a legislator.
Do you want it to be illegal to throw an all white or all black party? No one does.  So let's let this go.

Illegal? Legality was never challenged.

I'll say Staffer in The Senate Hearing Room with a Lead Pipe..

Definitely a candle stick.

So if it's not illegal, and no one wants to make it illegal, and I don't know any of these people, and I don't live in Boston, should I GAF? Should you?

If a legislator threw an all-white party and it got out there would be endless cries of nazism and white supremacy. If there wasn't backlash then literally almost no one would give a [BLEEP] about this 'no whites allowed' BS.  

THAT'S THE POINT.

He knows the point. He just likes watching the left screw over the country. It's his kink.

Even that isn't the entire point. They're practicing overt discrimination. But these aren't just average citizens, they're elected leaders who are members of a party which constantly casts harsh judgement on anyone who doesn't praise and comply with their racial morality. We all know this. Especially Mike. He likes to move along from subjects he can't squash with a litany of equivocation rather than just admit this is common ground for criticism. His inflated sense of rhetorical superiority forbids it. Plus, he likes to be the subject of discussion. At least he succeeded in one endeavor.

So what's the over/under of The Press Secretary quitting before Biden finishes his term?

Peter Doocy is gonna go ATOMIC on this next one lol

Legislators throw all white parties all the time.  They're just smarter about it.  They maintain plausible deniability.  They don't call it that.  There's very rarely any outrage.  You guys aren't mad that they had the party.  You're mad that they didn't organize it artfully enough.  And that's a pretty dumb thing to be mad about.

No, of course it's not illegal, and shouldn't be, but it looks really bad to throw an intentionally segregated party.   Especially for a mayor of a major city who should know better.  

If a white mayor threw a party and said, "This is for white city council people only," what would you say about that?  It's the SAME THING.

It's notable that in the year 2023, racial segregation is being espoused by people on the left as much as by people on the far right.

And to think that so many of us went thru crib courses in HS and/or college, sitting in a circle and 'rapping' (different meaning then) about racial harmony and colorblindness and how we are all ultimately the same inside. Alas, it was all for naught it seems.

The story of the Boston Tea Party is often oversimplified.  It's true that the colonists were protesting the tax on tea, and the fact that they had no representation in Parliament.  But Parliament didn't just tax the tea.  Parliament tried to "bail out" the British East India Company by granting them a monopoly on selling tea and other goods from Asia to the American colonies.  The particular shipment that got dumped overboard 250 years ago had been many places, and failed to sell in those places, before it arrived in Boston Harbor.  It was known to be stale.  The British East India Company by this time had a years-long reputation for selling stale tea. Not too long before, they had the reputation of selling the best tea and they dominated the market. But then their quality went way downhill. The colonists knew that pretty much any other shipping company could smuggle in much fresher stuff.  They weren't too different from us.  They didn't mind paying more for quality.  But if you try to force them to accept a Golden Corral quality product at a Ruth's Chris price, it won't go well for you.

The tea was marketed as one of five varieties. Three of the five would be called black tea today and the remaining two would be green. The East India Company assigned them all names for marketing purposes, but those names have not been used in a long time. The names used to be associated with quality but the East India Company was not able to maintain that. The most expensive at the time was "Bohea" which was a type of oolong tea, but George Washington's personal favorite was a less expensive green tea marketed as "singlo".

Meanwhile about half of the colonists, even back then, preferred coffee. The tea tax and attempted tea monopoly changed our caffeine preferences permanently. Tea would never again come close to the popularity that coffee has.

What would I say about that? I would say invite who you want but be more subtle about it. Would other people go into hysterics? Yes. But that's their problem.  I don't have to treat them the way they treat others. I don't have to play a part in the cycle of grievance.

I just saw a commercial on weather nation for Lion's Den. I assume this is a sex shop. The commercial said "why be nice when you can be naughty" while showing a couple in various stages of tying each other up.

I'm cool with adults doing what they want behind closed doors but I'm not cool with commercials advertising it to the masses. Adults know how and where to find this stuff.

If your reply is what you got out of mine, especially the bolded part, you really are next level willfully stupid.
