CNN Analyst Roland Martin has been suspended for the “time being” after making perceived homophobic comments on Twitter on Super Bowl Sunday regarding a David Beckham underwear ad.

“Roland Martin’s tweets were regrettable and offensive. Language that demeans is inconsistent with the values and culture of our organization, and is not tolerated. We have been giving careful consideration to this matter, and Roland will not be appearing on our air for the time being.” — Statement from CNN.

We already saw that in 2008, when CNN and the LA Times reported that 70% of black voters went for Prop. 8 on election day.

Blacks were called racial slurs by white gays. Some, even black gays, who went to protest the results of the voter, were accosted by white homosexuals. One black lesbian activist went on the O'Reilly Factor to talk of all the "hate mail" she got, during the aftermath of the Prop. 8 vote. She has also been outspoken about the hypocrisy of some white homosexual activists, blubbering about "equal rights", yet engaging in racist speech and actions towards their black brothers and sisters in gayness.

Blacks vs gays?  Let's see which loud mouth group cries "foul" the most often.  Maybe Al Sharpton and Elton John can be team captains.
