Where Were These People When Bush Ran America Into the Ground?
There’s a video at the end but I gotta get something off my chest first.
There are events in history that when we look back we shake our collective heads because of the absurdity of it all.
Fire hoses, lynchings, cats getting dragged, all White juries, making Black face the race of crime, Black scholars getting embarrassed in their own homes, rappers being violated, “mistake” shootings, “mistake” beatings, New Year’s Day videotaped murders, etc.
When Barack Obama was elected POTUS, you heard this mass groundswell of how America is now a post racial society. It was euphoric. Apparently, there is no more racism so basically shut the hell up Black people, Brown people and whoever the hell else wants to whine about prejudice and discrimination because you got what you wanted. You can now call one of your own president. I told you all there would be a backlash.
Do you feel the backlash. Everyone from Rachel Maddow’s boy to probably ya paper boy…if you have one…wants “their” country back. You might not hear it yet, but trust me some are saying it. All types of frustrated and very much disillusioned folk are gonna act out. There is a blame game and it begins with whoever doesn’t carry your first and last name. White folk if you are on the good side of the fence, then you are now on the clock. Speak up or forever hold your peace. Oh, you are shook too? Thought so. Prove me wrong. I could give a damn if you call yourself my friends, family, associates, acquaintances…it’s time to put up or shut up.
Black people trigger your consciousness.
Sotomayor…health care…Delaware…it’s everywhere…
This is why I go so damn hard on the media. This is why I bitch when the most minimal thing happens because I know the racial psychology of it all speaks of a racist past and a not giving a #*&$ future. It’s obvious where it comes from…where it leads to and when illogical Black writers, reporters, journalists, editors, publishers, readers…what the heck ever…capitulate just to be down with the mainstream, I’m gonna call you out. I’m gonna call you out every chance I get for letting dumb stuff off the hook because ya shook.
Hookers.
Remember “Ain’t no such thing as half way crooks.”
You may not think this is something that should be reported, but trust it’s the beginnings of something that could be very unfortunate for us all.
Look at what is happening now America. Look yourself in the damn face. You are shook. Little kid with a big guy like me chasing you shook. Barack can’t get a word in edgewise because a lot of you think you made a huge mistake in voting him the 44th.
Black people wonder why he says the future is up to us? He’s right! Realize that. Could you imagine being in the White House and hearing grumblings from all across America? It ain’t just about us as Black folk. This is about all of us. Stop being so damn selfish. We control our own destiny. We control our own legacies. We control our own consciousness. If you want to run with others at the expense of your own mind, that’s on you, but why not document what we do as a people first as it relates to a total contribution of American “values”? We all have our distinct qualities, use them or lose them.
Don’t expect scrutiny will disappear just because your face is the same color as mine.
Now to the video…
This birth certificate thing materialized way before the election and these nuts whine and cry and bitch and moan because they want a country that was never theirs back? This mess is disgusting. First he was Muslim (like there’s anything wrong with that). Now he’s born in Kenya and because Barack is basically starting from scratch and opening up his arms to the world you think he’s some kind of anti-American crook?
I hope he never loses his keys on the way home. Could you imagine that?
I wanna cuss so bad here, but I won’t…
Again, where the hell were all these patriotic people fighting for their patriotic freedom when George Bush ran America into the ground fighting a war we have no business in?
Are you this stupid to have forgotten about all of that? Seriously are you really this of an imbecile? I guess affirmative action the other way masks a whole lotta stuff huh?
Dumbasses. Yeah, I’m talking to you. I guess some of you really are this stupid. Never had a rally cry in your cot damn life and now you wanna speak out like you yourself fell down in the Crispus Attucks gun smoke. You are a joke.
Crazy thing is, this happened in a state I used to live in…DE.
Whites should be embarrassed as all get out over this.
She stopped this meeting, told everyone to recite the Pledge of Allegiance and they all did? Even the panel? Glad I never voted for you Mike Castle.
These are the same people who most likely think God is an American. Laughable.
It ain’t all about you.
Get over it.
Here’s one for you…
How about another one…
We all go through some form of struggle, but when your life frustration is pointed at others just because of their race, that’s some bullshit.

White People can’t live with them can’t live without them on second thought.

I read your posts quite often Michael and although I agree with a lot of your view points I think your taking one idiots actions and sensationalizing it. This supposed “backlash” that your talking about is the same group of people who were against Obama in the first place. I don’t know one person, white or otherwise, who regrets voting for him. As far as saying white people should be embarassed, really? Everytime someone does something moronic the entire race should be embarassed?

The entire meeting agreed with her. You are in this business Brad. Read a little more. Thanks for coming.
Speak up and speak out. Don’t make excuses and don’t push filth under guilt stained rugs.

I will quote from a comment I saw on another site regarding the woman hollering about a damn birth certificate in that video above.
“This woman hasn’t had a decent bowel movement since 11/4/2008″.

This is the first and only entry on this blog that I’ve read - I happened to click on it while surfing. I’d like to say that a lot of whites are extremely pissed off that our country and this Presidency is being taken hostage. Many, many of us are speaking out and demanding that the lunatics back up their ridiculous arguments with some sort of rational thinking or shut the hell up.
It’s ignorance that’s driving this outrageousness. It’s racism disguised as patriotism. It’s a feeble attempt to fight off a huge change in tide the rest of the world is embracing. They are few (albeit loud) - not the majority. They won’t win, they won’t stop progress, they won’t take over.
Thanks for your post and for your call for action. We stand together.
