Glad we’ve got that taken care of!

Got this via e-mail today from my sister, and thought it terribly appropriate for MLK day. It’s nice to know that we’ve sorted out at least one of those pesky myths.

Shattering the myth of white supremecy

The quote appears to be for real (and old), as per this article from WashingtonPost.com back in April, ’05:

But there was nothing inadvertent about a quip from Rep. Charles B. Rangel (D-N.Y.), second-most senior member of the Congressional Black Caucus. Rangel was interviewed on New York Public Television WLIW21 last Monday night and asked for his quick reaction to various people. The first was Bush.

“Well,” Rangel said. “I really think that he shatters the myth of white supremacy once and for all; it shows that, in this great country, anybody can become president.”

No idea who did the little graphic. I found it on blogs and on Flickr, but no one was clear about whether they created it or found it elsewhere. (Bad people, bad people!)
