i'm really not one of those baying for his head, but didn't that just kind of read like 'but some of my best friends are black!'?

To be fair, he explicitly asks for being held accountable on those grounds. That, you usually don't do if you are just talking about your "best black friends".

No, it didn't read like that at all.

i apologize for that last comment. that was uncharacteristically pithy of me.
