Bsi 2,034.26 +6.72 +.33%

Noting makes the Glen Beck's of the world happier than black boogeymen. Take, for instance, the curious case of the Fox News obsession with the New Black Panthers. Would they care about this "story" if it didn't advance their narrative that Barack Obama gives preference to blacks over whites? Yeah, we thought not, too.

The nice thing about Beck is that he makes it so easy to realize how right our side is.

WINNERS

Black Broadway (BBWY) 6.39 +1.33 +20.81%

Denzel wins Tonys. Halle Berry and Sam Jax hitting the stage. Will and Jada in "Streetcar"? May not be the "Great White Way" for long.

Well, let's not hope it gets this black.

LOSERS

Blacks and the Tea Party (BTEAP) .29 -.2 -40.82%

We gave the NAACP some grief for their resolution, but the thing is, they're right. The core sentiment that drives the Tea Party is race. Not taxes (cause they're not higher -- even though they should be). Not deficits. They "want their country back"... from the black guy.
