No need. I was gauging the time period you were referencing in your other post. What 'happened', is that Bushco destroyed the Mid East, the world economy, and Washington in general.
Then the black guy got hired, the internet was no longer a fledgling phenomenon, and professional trolls took over quite a few message boards. They coined the term 'reverse racism' to combat the challenges to overtly racist tidbits like 'Barack The Magic Negro', lawn jockey Obama pix, watermelons on the White House lawn pix, Obama medicine man pix...etc.
It seems message boards are a little stinky now, but the ignore button works wonders. There's plenty of quality discussion here, but I have a lot of these kids on ignore.
