To celebrate I turn to Tracy Morgan's prophetic words on Saturday Night Live's Weekend Update of March 15, 2008:
"Three weeks ago my friend, Tina Fey, she came on the show and she declared that bitch was the new black. You know I love you, Tina Fey. You are a first-class bitch. [ laughter ] I have something to say. Bitch may be the new black, but black is the new president, bitch!" [ laughter, cheers and applause ]
Tina Fey was making a pro-Clinton statement by saying that "bitch is the new black." However, as fashion history has taught us time and time again, black is the only new black. No other color, style, fabric, or design ever takes the place of black. There may be a flirtation with pink, orange or Olivier Theyskins, but in the end classic black endures.
