Apparently in the black community, this is a racist term because it has the word "black" in it without any words of praise surrounding it. Because of its political incorrectness, please note that it has now been renamed an African American Quantum Singularity.
John Wiley Price, the Mayor of Dallas and a black judge recently were offended and demanded an apology (no, I'm not making this up) for a white councilman referring to the traffic office as a "black hole" where paperwork is sent and never seen again. "How would you like it if I called it a 'white hole'?" Mr. Wiley-Price immediately retorted. Next on the list: Blackjack, Blackberry and Blackbird.

nappy headed ho

Share definition
An absolutely horrible, despicable, racist thing to call an individual. Unless, of course, you're black and then it's simply harmless slang for a woman with oily, unkempt hair.
Don Imus will be perpetually referred to as the guy who uttered a "racial slur" against the Rutgers women's bball team when he called them "nappy headed ho"s. Puzzlingly enough, none of the words in this phrase have anything to do with race. But, hey, since when did minor details like that get in the way of the media's campaign to constantly aggravate racial tensions in the name of selling news?

POLTER

Share definition
A strategy to silence political opponents by attempting to destroy their economic prosperity. POLTER is an acronym for "Political Offense Leads To Economic Revenge".

POLTER is a strategy often used by Highly Offendable Groups (HOGS) when facts do not favor their most cherished beliefs. Historically, fear and intimidation have been just as successful, if not more, than logic and debate in silencing opponents, not to mention quicker and more expedient (for example, the ignorant are rarely swayed by logic, but fear is universal).
A former president of Harvard once suggested that genetics might be responsible for the disparity between men and women in the highest positions of math and science. It was merely a suggestion, but unfortunately one that was heretical to feminist groups. Subsequently, they decided to POLTER him, spearheading a campaign to get him fired and stigmatized by the media so that his next employment opportunity would be at least less prestigious and profitable than the current one.

HOGs

Share definition
Highly Offendable Groups. Political groups centered around a common trait or cause that are extremely emotional about it, to the point that they will attempt to exact revenge by any means necessary (by POLTER, for example) on whomever or whatever dares to challenge any of their core beliefs.
Modern HOGs are ones centered upon race, sex, and sexual orientation. Religious zealots in the Western world used to be HOGs, but have been offended by so many people so frequently that they have gotten tired and gave it up.

A law that requires materials and services funded using taxpayer dollars to be provided in English. Laws such as these have only been passed in areas where the vast majority of people speak English, and have for centuries.

Liberals view this as radical and racist because it supports the needs of one group over another. Liberals, as always, are free to fund it by themselves if they feel so strongly about it. But then that goes against the central tenet of these left-leaners: "We just come up with the moral compass, we shouldn't have to pay for it."
Juanita has been living illegally in Texas for 10 years and wants to send her kids to public schools. Unfortunately, they're English only and she doesn't want to learn English or teach them English at home, so she and her friends demand the schools hire translators to teach their kids in Spanish. This, of course, neglects the Chinese, etc. Soon, our country will be a place where everyone can learn but noone can understand each other.

Bobeesha

Share definition
A name given to really fat black women, usually approaching 300 lbs (~135 KG) because once they begin getting really massive they all begin to look alike. Their facial features get scrunched, their bellies are the first thing to enter a room and their butts the last thing to leave it.

Bobeeshas are typically very lazy, too, but this is partly understandable - if you had an extra 175 pounds strapped to you, you wouldn't want to move much more than you had to. But never get between a Bobeesha and her food or you will be sorry. Bobeeshas are also usually very irritable, have a bad attitude and love to play the blame game. Because of their difficulty in attracting mates, if they have kids, they will usually all be from different sperm donors.
I desperately needed some painkillers after my surgery, but I had a big ol' Bobeesha for a nurse who wouldn't get or do anything for me. Whenever I asked for painkillers, food, water or whatever, Bobeesha would try to convince me I didn't really need or want them (e.g., "What do you want a drink fo'? It's just gonna make you pee and you don't want to have to walk around with all those bandages, now do you?"). If I persisted, she would then ask with obvious irritation some other nurse to get these things. Eventually, they got angry and complained that she wasn't doing her job, but then she suddenly found the energy to beat them down with a racism stick.
