Obama Worship Reaches Frightening Level

 

It was clear during the tidal wave of 2008 other wise known as the Obama campaign that there was indeed a sort of messianic adulation surrounding then Senator Obama. Sadly, it has not dissipated even after four years of a dismal economic record. The worship of president Obama has reached a frightening level. I was horrified when I tuned in to a talk radio show and heard a college professor touting her book "The Gospel According To Apostle Barack". Barbara Thompson, at Florida A&M University compares Barack to Martin Luther King and Jesus for his focus on the poor.  Just this past week, a controversy was stoked at the depiction of Barack in the likeness of Jesus complete with rose thorns simulating crucifixion. This type of idol worship particularly in the black community is a result of four decades of indoctrination by our education system.
 
Since the death of MLK, blacks have especially been thoroughly conditioned for the return of a black messiah. The end of the civil rights movement paved the way for a second act, led by a new class of MLK wannabes. black children as a result of this myopia can seldom muster any other historical black figure to discuss other than King. The election of Barack Obama represented the culmination of forty years of activism for the black elite-many of them raised during and immediately after the King era. For many, Barack Obama is more than just a politician he is indeed a prophet sent to black America. The secular black elites who have anointed Obama's as the savior are held in high esteem by blacks overall and the mainstream media as the voices of black America-which this makes this type of idolatry especially dangerous. At the end of the day, there may be a silver lining in all this. There are only four years left in the Barack Obama era. Once his reign ends and the lives of most black Americans remains unchanged as it undoubtedly will, this civil right movement 2.0 will lose its breath. No longer will the Democrats be able to wind up black voters and march them to the polls to punch their tickets. True change for black America will not come from a charismatic politician from Academia, but from a culture that practices values over politics.

The Legend Of The Unarmed White Man (Revised)

Image
The August 2014 shooting death of unarmed black teen Mike Brown in St. Louis by a white police officer and the subsequent decision by the grand jury not to indict has brought unrest to American Streets. The protestors feel that police are shooting and killing mostly unarmed black men at alarming rates. Many also believe that police interaction amongst white's is all together different due to the benefits of "white privilege". "If that had of been a white man..." is a common refrain from blacks when speaking of a negative experience with a white police officer. The media plays an integral role in these perceptions by continuously assaulting us with images of black victims and white perpetrators. In light of the Brown incident and other controversial shootings this year, the adjective attached to these perceived victims is "unarmed". The term is a staple in the lexicon of the American media which h...

BP Crisis Brings Out Radical Left

Image
Once again the left, with the help of Jesse Jackson shows its ignorance of and hatred for capitalism. The BP crisis which began with the explosion of an offshore oil rig which resulted in a fire that killed 19 people. The pipe located one mile undersea began to spew oil into the gulf and has for over fifty days now. The Reverend has been for weeks calling for a boycott of BP. Now comes word that several BP stations have been vandalized. The fact that such vitriol and anger results from what was clearly a tragic accident is surely tragic in itself. Someone should explain to the reverend that oil companies exited the gas station business years ago. The stations are by and large owned by franchisees and independent operators who squeeze out razor thin margins on gasoline-hence the reason for the lottery tickets, potato chips and soft drinks that has become a staple of these often family owned businesses. To make matters worse, the Rev. Jackson stated that "the mom and pop stations a...

Blacks Only Field Trip Revealing

A Michigan elementary school Principal took group of 5th grade students on a field trip to hear a speech by an African American rocket scientist. The only problem: he only took the black students. This incident for this blogger has much larger revelations other than the obvious. This Principal is the prototypical example of the dangers of a left wing education. A huge problem among blacks specifically is their ability to practice discrimination and segregation while simultaneously preaching "equality" and "inclusion". Dicken Elementary School Mike Madison took a group on black students, part of a group known as the African American Lunch Bunch to hear a black rocket scientist speak. The fact that there is such a group at a such a racially diverse school is troubling. Needless to say, the outrage would be manic if a white organization existed and engaged in the same exclusion of black students. In the black left wing mind, discrimination and racism are acceptable ...
