[...] Update! As we indicated yesterday, the manufacturer of the Sock Obama issued an apology but said nothing about stopping sales. Evidently that has changed. The Company says they were ignorant of the racist implications and decided not to sell the modern-day lawn jockey.

@#2 Eric – again, it’s not much different from the anti-immigrant or sexist folks saying, “what anti-immigrant sentiment?” or “what sexism?” I would actually say that this toy manufacturer might be a model for others – he intimate that he didn’t see it but when presented with the way others were seeing it, he made the choice to say, “wow – this is really bothering some people and I can see that – I’m not going to keep provoking that or be a part of it.”

That does take something, rather than digging in and continuing to ridicule the opposite side. Like I said, I’d sure like to know more about him – I think Obama himself should meet s a person like that – to hear about, see what it takes to help others see what we saw.
