Canadian leftist bloggers have called me ‘racist’ for broaching the subject of barbershops in the black community

January 9, 2012 By Kathy Shaidle

Which merely proves (again) that Canadian leftist bloggers don’t get out much and “live” stunted, parochial little lives…

The book also reveals this little anecdote.  “One morning during his Senate campaign, Obama didn’t show up to a meeting with donors. ‘After a frantic search, a white staffer named Peter Coffey called Obama’s barbershop to find that, yes, he was there.’  The president confronted Coffey about the call later that day. ‘The relationship between a black man and his barber is sacred,’ Obama bellowed … ‘For failing to understand this truth, your punishment is to watch the movie Barbershop. And for further punishment, you will then watch the sequel, Barbershop 2.'”
