Tuskegee Airmen movie “Red Tails” a hard sell in Hollywood

- Odd, I have a DVD already called the Tuskegee Airmen that was put out just a few years ago. Maybe the reason why Hollywood said they didn't know how to market it. Maybe they didn't want to invest in this one was because they thought it was too soon after the other movie was made.

- Sorry, but his back is brown, his front is white (like most penquins), and his feet are pink. Next time ask the Kindergarten kid to tell you what color it is, instead of the left winger that only sees the world as "black" or "White".

- Ah Denis, now we understand. Are we then to assume you are only here to repeat the propaganda you have been brainwashed with in the madrassa? Have to ask, because that certainly sounds like what you are doing.

- Hmm. Sorry NC, but your timing is a bit off. If you were stationed in Germany in 1988 that would have been 43 years after the war ended.
