I agree that the Rush story is horrifically bad and wrong!

I still believe that the strongest point is made with an impeccable and consistent example. Not only do you channel feelings of injustice in a positive way, you have something–work–that speaks for itself. The cream rises to the top, ¿no?

I always say, work your butt off and let that be what people say about you. That’s what I call making a negative stereotype a positive one!

It takes any legitimacy away from valid points.

There is absolutely no excuse for the choice of that word.

Why the double-standard? And why do we tolerate. It goes beyond us getting even. It might just take us getting mad and then getting even.

Oh, let’s not forget about Stern referring to the Rutguer’s b-ball team as nappy-headed h***. Merde!

Flores Mon, 12 Mar 2012 01:26:55 +0000 http://thewiselatinaclub.com/?p=3656#comment-573 I’ll avoid commenting about Rush Limbaugh because we know how ridiculous it all is. What I loved about this post is the reference to overcoming our stereotypes by “getting even.” By just being who we truly are–una chingonas!–and letting THAT stereotype be the one that shines.
