Today in Racism

American citizen wins New York Marathon, the first to do so since 1982.

CNBC sports "writer" Darren Rovell feels the victory is "empty" because Meb Keflezighi is only "technically" American. Because he was born in Eritrea and became a citizen in 1998.

Incidentally, the last American to win the marathon was Alberto Salazar. Who was born in the down-home American town of... Havana.


And he is also displeased with your racist bullshit.


Clearly this is evidence that the New York City Marathon isn't Conservative enough.

I say we make American sports more American by forcing Mayflower descendants into ultimate fighting cage-matches.

I hate that my ancestors came from some other worthless country instead of being born right here in 'Murca.
