We put the PANIC in Hispanic

Alberto Gonzales on SNL

It is a good day for Hispanics when I am not the only one making fun of our “leaders”… and then they say the networks ignore us…

And while we are at it…

Panamanian Wants to be Your Next Presidente

In the most unanticipated presidential announcement ever, ZZZ … John McCain, the Panamanian, declared to EVERYONES utter surprise that he should be presidente because he was tortured in Vietnam, or something like that.

We had initially hoped that he would be our first Central American president, since Central America has already had a gringo president, (Bolivia also) but his popularity is so low these days, even Richardson could beat him… maybe.

So far none of our illustrious Hispanic organizations have endorsed him, but some Cubans have, and we predict more will follow once they find out he is from the same country as Ruben Blades.

Your Racial News of the Day

So when I saw this new study today, i decided this blog needs a new section on “racial findings news” to mock those who still believe there is more than one race (other than the human race) and believe that Hispanic is a race and deny that EVERYBODY’s DNA has African roots, but that is another topic…

Apparently new “research” shows that parents of the Tiger Woods of the world buy their kids computers, force them to go to the library and the zoo…

Here goes:

Interracial Couples Invest More in Kids

Parents who are of different races, such as a white father and an Asian-American mother, spend more time and money on their kids than parents who are both of the same race, new research shows.

So-called biracial (aka interracial or multiracial) parents are more likely than their “monoracial” (WTF is that?) counterparts to provide their children with a home computer, private schooling and educational books and CDs and to make sure they participate in reading activities, dance, music or art lessons outside of school and get trips to the zoo, library and other cultural venues.

The “biracial advantage” only holds for comparisons with same-race couples from the two racial groups represented by the parents—for instance, if a Latino and white couple is compared with a Latino-Latino couple or a white-white couple. The finding disappears if all biracial couples, regardless of racial pairing, are compared with the entire pool of same-race couples (combining all couples that are white-white, black-black, Latino-Latino and so forth).

Unfortunately the research doesn’t tell us what happens to:

the black, Cuban, Irish, Australian children of Soledad O’Brien

the Japanese Peruvian children Alberto Fujimori,

the future Mexican, dutch, Belgian, black children of Eva Longoria and Tony Parker

the we’d love to see Lebanese, barranquillan, Haitian children of Shakira and Wyclef Jean

the multiracial multicontinental international children of Angelina Jolie

the Hispanic vs Hispanic traumatized self hater children of Loretta Sánchez and Joe Baca in Second Life

AND

the potential insane children of venezuelan presidente Hugo Chávez who secretly wants to do Condi Rice.
