Biden Promises To Replace Retiring Quarterback Tom Brady With A Woman Of Color Celebs January 30th, 2022 -

WASHINGTON, D.C.—Legendary quarterback Tom Brady has announced his plan to retire from the NFL to spend more time carving little wooden toys for his grandkids. In response to the earth-shattering news, President Joe Biden has announced his commitment to replace the outgoing football star with a woman of color.

"Listen, folks, it's time," said Biden to the press. "In the hundred-year history of the NFL, not a single quarterback has ever been a woman of color. That's racist! We all know that poor women are just as smart and powerful as white kids. As president, I will nominate a new quarterback to replace Tom Brady that reflects America's diversity."

When told he doesn't have the authority to nominate quarterbacks to the NFL, Biden told his staff he would just sign the executive order and let the courts deal with it later.

"There's no excuse," said Biden. When I used to play Nine Pins with Jehoshaphat Jenkins and the townsfolk, we always used to let the black women play with us. I was a civil rights hero, darn it! It's time for the rest of the world to catch up!"

So far, candidates being considered for the empty position include Michelle Obama, Tyler Perry, and Colin Kaepernick in a woman's wig.

Satire doesn't have to be humorous to everyone, there is also the sub genre called "Biting Satire"

Satire causes people to either laugh, or grind their teeth in frustration...

It's interesting to see those that grind their teeth all the time...

It's just not funny.  

If the joke had a valid comparison then it might have been funny, but it doesn't, so it's not.

If there were dozens and dozens of qualified black women at the same level of achievement as Tom Brady who could realistically fill his shoes, like there are qualified black women for the supreme court, then it would indeed be hilarious.

Instead this conservative Christian rag decides to ridicule black women as being inferior to a white male and that it should be a hilarious joke that one would even consider them for such a position over all the apparently more qualified white male candidates for supreme court.

So it might be really funny for racist sexist deplorable dip shits, but the joke falls flat for any rational intelligent human who supports equality and diversity.

Also, lets be realistic, Republicans would have screamed and yelled about any liberal pick to fill Breyers seat regardless of what color or gender. At least with Biden announcing his intentions he gets the support of his own party and the large number of black women and minorities who were key to him winning the election in 2020. So the choice is pick some white male Christian that Republicans will still claim is unfit for the office and would also anger his own party for not being diverse, or pick a black women which is still an unrepresented minority on the bench. I think the choice was clear, and right wing conservatives love it because it riles up their openly racist base and makes their "silent majority" of white supremacists among them panic like they did when they were told by their dumb shit half witted racist neighbors and friends that Obama was coming to take their guns away and put them in FEMA camps. To conservative Republicans that spells "big turnout" of their panicked riled up voters at the mid-term elections which couldn't make them happier.

What about  white transvestite lesbians who worships plants?   Why must you continue to discriminate against them?

Then please do explain how this isn't racist and sexist. Job of male quarterback in male only league with white male GOAT and the joke is that the equality loving diversity loving (which are apparently horrible attributes to conservatives) President wants to replace him with a black female. I mean that would be CRAZY! Right? Supposedly as CRAZY as appointing a black woman to the supreme court. Conservatives like Ted Cruz claim black women are only 6% of the population so they can't be representative of America yet conveniently forgets that they are women which are 51% of the population. But still, to conservatives it seems CRAZY to appoint a black women to the supreme court and they haven't even seen the qualifications of the candidates, they just assume they must not be qualified or supposedly as qualified as some white conservative. That is the very definition of fucking racist.

But you don't want too many to do it at once.  They'll start wandering aimlessly around sniffing everything, walking out into traffic.  It will be like herding cats trying to gather them all up again.

Do you find Biden's statement that his Supreme Court appointee will be a black woman racist and sexist?

Woopi as QB no, but defensive tackle or goal line fullback maybe and if she got mad it would be worse than Antinio Brown's antics

Very true, all the Bee has are sniveling white conservative Christians putting lies into the mouths of liberals and progressives they despise.

Babylon Bee subscriber Peter Moyer said "Hey, this article I wrote and submitted to the Bee can't be racist because I have a black friend and I take the day off work for MLK day so I'm a totally woke non-racist conservative...". - satire

True.

Here's an excellent example that helps make your point-- excellent satire that many aren't capable of understanding.

Does "not everyone" understand this one?

I'm sure someone as intelligent as you will understand it-- even if the rest of us mere mortals aren't capable of understanding it!

S atirizing rabbis who pretend to to be victims of anti-Semitism. LOL-- what great satire!

Great satire ! The best! 

(Of course if your allegations are true-- most of us won't understand how funny this is-- ROFL! )

Haha-- that rabbi got caught in the act!

And speaking of excellent satire that many of us aren't capable of understanding, I have a few really funny examples of cartoons satirizing Jews-- from both the Arab world and Nazi Germany that would help reinforce your point..that many of us aren't capable of understanding them. 

And then there are some hysterically funny satires of Blacks from the Klan, and and  from some fundamentalist "Christian" sources....(which many people here wouldn't be capable of understanding).

But I won't post them. Why? because while some folks here would be capable of understanding satire...some aren't. So they might get offended, and report me-- and I might get a ticket!

So using  racial discrimination to select players in a game would be absurd and unjust, but for the Supreme Court it's fine. 

That's quite an argument the left makes.

Why do you think that everyone on the left does that-- but no one on the right would ever do that?

(Perhaps those on the Right are genetically superior-- or just that they're all just more intelligent?)

Why? 'Tis a mystery indeed...

Well, understanding how to use the reply button tips the answer towards more intelligent.
