Untitled[edit]

Now that she's appeared on the Colbert Report it's probably worth talking about her. Should we add a larger reference to her appearance on the daily show under "Notable Events" or something like that? -Ronin

I had no idea she'd appeared on the Colbert report and/or the Daily Show when I posted this. She's worth talking about, regardless. A single sentence might do, but an expanded mention would be "recentism" IMO. Marskell 10:49, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Genius[edit]

It has to count as one of the top segments ever on the Colbert Report http://www.comedycentral.com/motherload/?ml_video=81955 "People tell me I'm white, and I believe them because I think Barack Obama is black. It sounds to me like you are judging blackness not on the colour of someone's skin but on the content of their character, which I think realises Dr. Kings dream in a very special way." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.70.44.248 (talk) 21:28, 9 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

U of Missouri alumna?[edit]

Article says that she dropped out of U of Missouri to go into the Air Force, and later graduated from UMCP. So, unless anyone has a rationale to do otherwise, I am removing the Univ Missouri alumni category. If there is a reason to retain it, let me know the rationale and I will put it back.
