Rice cakes

Controversy reigns in my last hometown. This past Wednesday, Sly, a "radio personality" in Madison, Wisconsin, called Condoleezza Rice an Aunt Jemima and said she was incompetent. Perhaps needless to say, he's getting a lot of grief for it, and his remarks are being conflated with those of the Milwaukee DJ who used the word "wetbacks" a couple of weeks ago. The radio station has a survey up, and as of this post, 82.7% of respondents say Sly should apologize. And so on Friday's show, he did:

It is with a heavy heart that I apologize this morning to Aunt Jemima. She wasn't a self-serving hack politician who got up in front of Congress and lied. Aunt Jemima didn't kowtow to Don Rumsfeld or Dick Cheney.
