These boys are the amazing kids of an amazing Ohio lawyer, Subodh Chandra who was nearly our next attorney general. Although he didn't win the Dem. primary last May, he went on to assist many Democratic candidates, including Marc Dann, his primary opponent and eventual winner. We are lucky to have Subodh, his wife and his kids - they are the real deal.

I'm sorry, this word does not exist in my country. I've heard of it on race related sites, but I can't for the life of me remember what it means.

Enlightenment?

Fenriswolf: during the 2006 election to the US Senate, the incumbent senator in Virginia used the word "macaca" to describe somebody. It possibly cost him the seat. The word is apparently a racial slur in some parts of the world-- something to do with monkeys, I think.

I think I just sprained an ovary.

Thanks. I remembered it's a racial slur, forgot about the monkey part :\

Isn't it something about being multiracial?

Like we need more racial slurs. >:|

me and the half-macaca spawn are getting us some of these uppity tees!

i'm grateful to sen allen, truly, for letting us scream fuck off to all those folks who have ever questioned our american-ness, esp when we do get political. model minorities arent supposed to do that. just be the hardworking docile asians we expect you to be.

thanks for the pic, jessica.
