More Noose Nonesense

Image
It seems that there is a severe common sense deficit in Black America, which is evidenced by our knee jerk reaction to the old hanging noose trick. Whenever some dimwit wants get the ire of black folks, he or she simply goes into their bag of gags and hangs a noose. Then, just like Pavlov's dog, The Neo- civil rights mafia comes out in force, staging protest, demanding investigations and giving these childish pranks far more attention than its worth. This reaction only paves the way for the next imbecile. The imbecile in this case is a yet to be identified University of California at San Diego female student who for unknown reasons hung a noose on a lamp in the student library. When will people figure out that the over reaction to this silly attention grabbing stunt is exactly the the end goal? To get Blacks to over react. If some Neo Nazi wannabe or frat boy for that matter wants to piss blacks off or miss class, he just pulls out his noose and watches the fireworks. Even blacks h...

The Stupid Game

Image
More than a year ago, while participating in a panel discussion on the radio I asked the question: Can anyone name a liberal Democrat over the past twenty five years who has been labeled stupid? As the saying goes, the silence was deafening. The fact is that there isn't a single democrat that has been characterized as an idiot, buffoon or stupid-they have all been conservatives. Less one believes that this is a coincidence, then there is something rotten in mediaville . You can go back as far as Gerald Ford, who was relentlessly parodied as clumsy and bumbling by Chevy Chase and the Saturday Night Live crew at the time. Ford-who was an outstanding athlete in his day- made the mistake of falling down while coming off of Air Force one during a visit to Austria and has forever been portrayed by the comedic left as clumsy. Chase admitted in a 2008 interview that their lampooning of Ford was deliberate since he was "not their guy". The plethora of comedians who now moonlight ...

The Trouble With Black Athletes

Image
I guess we can count on one of these stories at least once a year. A prominent black athlete gets himself into trouble because of poor judgement and irresponsibility. Last year it was New York Giants wide out Plaxico Burres who shot himself in the leg at a Manhattan Nitelub. Burress has since been sentenced to a two year prison term. In what has become the standard bearer for a superstars who fall from grace, the Michael Vick dog fighting scandal reigns supreme. The latest millionaire run amok is Washington Wizards star point guard Gilbert Arenas who has landed in hot water for pulling a gun on a teammate in the locker rocker room during a dispute over a gambling debt. "Agent Zero" as he is ironically called has been suspend by the NBA for the remainder of the season and could still face jail time. If that isn't bad enough, he runs the risk of having his $110m contract voided by the Wizards. I have always disagreed with the liberal worldview that jobs and education are t...

What Black America Can Learn From Massachusetts

Image
The political world is abuzz with the stunning victory by Republican Scott Brown over his Democratic challenger Martha Coakley-a senate seat previously held by the late Ted Kennedy. There was no one who was more a political institution that Kennedy who served 46 years as senator of Massachusetts. The people of this staunchly liberal state decided enough was enough and elected Republican senator for the first time since 1972 and perhaps putting a death nail in Obamacare in the process. Since 1968, America's inner cities which are largely populated by blacks have not elected a Republican in decades. The left wing/liberal mindset is as ingrained in the black mind as deeply as their religion- and we know how difficult it is to change one's religion. Black America after forty years of Democratic/liberal rule which has not coincidentally produced dismal results. What are the chances that say, Chicago or Baltimore would elect a Republican mayor? Could the results be any worse than the...

How To Help Haiti

Image
You are not human if you have not been gut wrenched by the massive earthquake in Haiti. The scenes of death and devastation are depressing. This disaster underscores the exploitation, poor leadership and corruption that has plagued Haiti over the past one hundred years. Haiti's kleptocratic regimes during the past 60 years in particular has kept the country in a perpetual state of poverty and squandered over $4 billion dollars in US and foreign aid since 1992. The failure of Haiti's leaders to implement free market economic and democratic principles has been highlighted by this tragedy. The poorly developed infrastructure, and anemic government services are the results of decades of leaders that have put their own financial interest ahead of the Haitian people. Most recently, the ineffective Jean Bertrand Aristead was driven from power by way of a rebellion in 2004 after his corruption was uncovered. Hundreds of billions of dollars will be needed just to make Haiti a semi -fun...

Time For An Intervention

Image
Unfortunately there are two things you can count on when disaster happen: financial scams and idiotic comments. Rush is clearly suffering from Obama derangement syndrome as evidenced by his latest comments. Last week after the Haiti earthquake disaster Rush stated "I do believe that everything is political to this president," said Limbaugh on his radio show yesterday. "Everything this president sees is a political opportunity, including Haiti, and he will use it to burnish his credentials with minorities in this country and around the world, and to accuse Republicans of having no compassion." Pat Robertson once again decided to weigh in, using religious fanaticism. Stating that the earthquake was a result of Haitians who "made a pack with the devil" in exchange for getting rid of their French slave masters. Some are incapable of taking off their political hats-even when hundreds of thousands of people lay dead from a horrible tragedy. During the Bush admin...

Reid's Comments Cast Light On Light Skin

Image
Nevada Senator Harry racially charged comments regarding then Presidential candidate Barack Obama are surprising to some but certainly not to me. During the 2008 campaign, Reid said in private remarks during the campaign that the country was ready for a "light-skinned" African-American president with "no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one." The remarks are contained in a new book, "Game Change: Obama and the Clinton's , McCain and Palin , and the Race of a Lifetime." The words that jumped out at me immediately was "light skinned". About a year ago I almost caused a riot in the barber shop when I stated that Obama would not have been elected if his complexion looked like that of actor Wesley Snipes. Those who are not cognizant of this are foolish. Complexion has an effect on mindset of blacks as well as whites. Shall I offer proof? Let's take walk down history. Adam Clayton Powell, the first black elected to congress from the st...
