Discussion: Black Conservative Group Divided Over Incendiary ‘Lynching’ Ad

Depends - if it’s an adjective with an understood antecedent, then it would be doofae (like [duae feminae] doofae). If it’s a second declension masculine noun, then it would be doofi (like virusviri). If it’s a second declension neuter noun, then it would be doofa (like gaudiumgaudia).

Thanks for the opportunity to be Mr. Pedantic, Latin Edition!

Yes, it’s a fundamental belief in the Almighty…$$$. Same as the Log Cabin Republicans. If they’re rich enough, they’re convinced they can overcome the ingrained bigotry of the party against them. Or that if they inveigle their donors appropriately, the money flows in without question.

Man do I hate to have to admit that that was my exact first thought when I saw “doofi” improperly gendered and I haven’t had the chance to flunk Latin since 1959.

This is the blood libel of our times.

Didn’t see anything in my newsletter. We supposed to be doing this? Please advise.

Apparently he’s an ASS!

Black people have the right to be conservative bomb throwers, and I have the right to despise all Republicans regardless of color.

“We can’t afford to let white Democrats take us back to bad old days of race verdicts, life sentences, and lynching’s when a white girl screams rape,” the ad continues.

I don’t get how they can twist themselves into making this a race issue. Kavanaugh’s accusers were White. Clarence’s was Black.
And where was this group when Al Franken was accused of groping? Were the lynching Democrats behind cconservatives going after Franken the way they did?

I believe there will be a pre-fiesta siesta for people who need to save energy to participate in the festivities, and a post-fiesta siesta for those who have spent their energy participating in the festivities. The organizers are very accommodating.

That’s straight out the Lee Atwater-Karl Rove playbook.

Get to the polls. Vote the Human Being ticket.

Yeah white republicans live black folks and want their daughters to marry black guys and have mixed grandkids! Donald’s probably going to have a child with a black woman if he can every get rid of Melania, or even if he can’t since it’s never stopped him before!
