Anyway, I am very disappointed with my dad's Alma mater. Tonight my racism chasing takes me to East Lansing, Michigan.
"The campus of Michigan State University has been rocked by recent acts of racial intimidation directed toward black students. The student body at the state's largest university made their voices very loudly heard on Tuesday night that these acts will not be tolerated.
"The incident that really jump-started this movement was an incident at Akers Hall where someone wrote 'No Ni**ers, please' on a door of a young lady's room," said Mario Lemons, the president of the MSU Black Student Alliance (BSA). "The residence life staff told us not to talk about. Of course, someone took a picture of it and sent it to one of us."
The picture set off a firestorm on campus and online, even starting the hashtag #MSUBlackUnity on Twitter. An estimated crowd of 1,000 MSU students of all races filed into Conrad Hall for a town hall meeting on the issue of racial intimidation on Tuesday night.
"We put it on Facebook and Twitter and started a dialog about it," said Lemons. "From that came more stories of other people going through things on campus."
These incidents included other racist messages being scrawled on doors; outright physical acts of racial intimidation; and the initial incident of a black doll being hung from a beaded noose in a chemistry lab shortly after the school year began in early September.
There are people overtly saying the n-word," said Lemons, a senior from Detroit, majoring in education. "People telling other students that they don't belong here, saying that they only got here because of Affirmative Action. Very unwelcoming things done to black people on campus."
The Akers Hall incident was directed toward Tinisha Sharp. Sharp was leaving her dorm room to go to chemistry class last week when she saw the slur written on the dry-erase board. Since she was the only black student living in the room with three other students, it was very clear the message was directed at her.
"I couldn't believe my eyes," said Sharp, a sophomore from Detroit. "It was very surprising to see a message like that. I really thought this type of discrimination had been ceased by this time. But I guess not." [Source]
Welcome to post racial A-merry-ca, Negro. But this is how you overcome racism: Get your education on, get your degree, and become a credit to your family and your race.
Oh, and stay out of the house.
Come on, Field, I'm sure those crazy college kids were just havin a little fun. Those blacks should really lighten up (ha!) and learn how to take a joke or two.
ReplyDeletestill no mention of that race hustling, mass murderering shareef allman?
ReplyDeleteMildew
Brother Field......glad the Raiders picked up Brother Jason as the QB. Having a moment of silence for the man that stepped up and allowed the Black QB to be in that position. Seems so long ago that I was hoping for Brother Warren Moon to have a shot in the NFL during his prime. He was in the Canadian Football before there was cable tv.....but Jet and Ebony and our local Journal and Guide Newspaper keep us in the "know" about the Black QB. Notice a trend...do the people that write hurtful words believe that we as a people are pained?
ReplyDelete?

ReplyDeleteYou're right Tormentor I should have been more specific. They should watch the movie to see what happens to WHITE racists (like those in the GOP). I keep forgetting when you righties say racists you only think of us Black racists.
These incidents are almost always perpetrated by black students looking for attention or trying to get out of a test.

We all think we're racist. Gots to love life in America.
Field, "Welcome to post racial A-merry-ca, Negro. But this is how you overcome racism: Get your education on, get your degree, and become a credit to your family and your race."
ReplyDeleteReally? Higher education doesn't stop racism. Racists who get Higher Education merely become educated racists. Einstein once said to college students at Tuskegee that "racism is a White man's disease." It's the kind of disease that no amount of education can cure or treat.
Racism will truly never stop, nor diminish until the emotional and mental health field make an effort to learn what to do to treat it. But right now, they don't care, because they are uneffected by racism, and at some level, are racists themselves!
The biggest shortcoming of going to college to get a 'higher' education is that it does nothing for one's character. That has to come from a higher inner authority that puts self-restraint on bad behavior.
Nope. Higher Education does nothing for making a person a 'better' person. These are very scary, hurtful-hateful times. When Obama was elected, I was both elated and uneasy. As a person of the sixties, I felt deep down inside that this could be the moment that might free us all finally, or cause epidemic racism which will keep us bound as prisoners of evil.

Usually, it's whatnot. Ask a Duke Lacrosse player.
While you sensitive negros are getting your panties all up in a bunch over some 18 year old girl writing the word "nigger" on a bathroom door, the latest alienated, homicidal incompetent to take seriously the sort of racial pandering the president is readying to take to eleven in 2012 was shot and killed by police yesterday:
-------------------------------
Shareef Allman, 47, who had been having problems at work and was angry over a recent suspension, entered the room around 15 minutes after the meeting started.
“He doesn’t even say ‘Good morning,’” Rivas recalled. “He just came in and grabbed a cup of coffee.”
Rivas said Allman walked around the room and then left.
About five minutes later, Allman returned, barricaded the door and opened fire, Cardoza said. Rivas said Allman yelled an obscenity before shooting.
He shot 59-year-old Mark Munoz first, Rivas said, then picked off the others one by one. Munoz died, as did Manuel Pinon, 48, and John Vallejos, 51.
Rivas, who was sitting in a chair on the perimeter of the room when the shooting began, dove under a table. He saw his supervisor, Jose Hernandez, get shot.
“He yelled ‘No, no, no,’” Rivas said of Hernandez. Allman then walked to each person hiding under the table and shot them, Rivas said.
Rivas put his head down on his arm, and waited his turn.
“He was ready to shoot me. I said, ‘No, no!,” said Rivas as he screwed up his face to mimic Allman’s enraged mien. “It was terrible. He was filled with hate.”
-------------------------------
Recall Omar Thornton's, no doubt to his mind heroic, final testament --"this is a racist place". What child-like confidence he had in its power to absolve him of cold-blooded murder (racism is the universal moral solvent, present in all human agency); that confidence was quickly validated by the unconscionable coverage that followed.
The comparison to Thornton isn't apt, though. Omar was an apolitical dullard. Shareef Allman has been identified by his friends and neighbors as a "pillar of the community" and, with an grim-comic obliviousness only black Americans can manage, a "kind-hearted mediator of conflict" who hosted a public access show and even got to interview Jesse Jackson on camera. This was a black man politically active in his community, an intellectual and emotional imbiber of the Narrative, exacting retribution for, as he sees it, discrimination. How much more explicit does racial-political violence have to get for the topic to be broached by the High and Serious of the media?
A viewing of Allman's interview on You tube with Jesse Jackson indicates this was not a politically sophisticated fellow. A standard issue idiot. Met a hundred of them. God help us as Obama ratchets up the race-baiting he has in store for the campaign.

------------
1. Duke lacrosse team rape case.
2.During the 40th anniversary of the integration of Ole Miss in 2002, two black students found racial insults scrawled on the doors of their dorm rooms: F*****g N*gger and F*****g Hoe [sic] N*gger . Similar messages turned up in other locations across the campus. Students organized a Say No to Racism march, and race activists demanded programs and procedures to instill racial sensitivity. A spate of national news coverage commented on how little Ole Miss had changed in 40 years. The perpetrators were found to be black students.
3. At the University of Louisville in 2004, students endured racial graffiti and racist fliers passed out on cars. Protesters held rallies and handed a list of demands to U of L president Jim Ramsey. The incident quietly faded away when black students admitted to passing out the fliers as a prank.
4. In October 2007, Madonna Constantine, who is African-American, received national attention when a noose was discovered hanging on the door of her office at Columbia University. Students rallied on Teachers College steps and walked through Columbia's campus denouncing racism at a press conference, where Constantine read from a statement. In March, 2008, a grand jury was convened to investigate the noose incident. Columbia University stonewalled law enforcement for 24 hours, originally demanding a subpoena, before agreeing to release security tapes that could help identify the suspect. The NYPD's investigation concluded that Constantine placed the noose on her own door in an attempt to fabricate an apparent hate crime.
5. On February 25, 2010, someone hung a noose in the campus library at the University of California at San Diego. The predictable response ensued. Students stormed the offices of Chancellor Marye Anne Fox and held a sit in for six hours. No one was arrested or disciplined. Students at other colleges held similar protests. At UC Berkeley students set trash cans ablaze, broke into a library under renovation where they smashed windows and sprayed graffiti. Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, who in 2009 signed a bill to make hanging a noose in public a crime punishable with up to a year in jail, called it a "horrific act" of racism.
Of course there is the usual problem: the perpetrator came forward and described herself as "a minority student who sympathizes with the students that have been affected by the recent issues on campus.

It happens ALL THE TIME.
Good seeing you pay respect to Al Davis, there was always something I respected about the man as a human being. I couldn't quite place my hands on exactly what it was ...

Maybe it was his renegade way of thinking that appeared to make sense in the end.
Rest In Peace, Al Davis.
Looks like Anon, Inc. failed to come through with the software update. The president of Anon, Inc. probably spent the money on his quarterly bonus. I don't blame him -- if I was making bank off of defective elementary-grade trolling, I'd give myself plenty of bonuses, too.
ReplyDelete"It happens ALL THE TIME."
Five cases listed here plus "twenty" you referred to on the blog link you posted. And this is supposed to be an indication of how things like this "happen ALL THE TIME." This is designed to drive home the theory of blacks crying wolf over hate crimes and how we (meaning white American society) should proceed to ignore such penny ante shit and not give blacks the time of day when they do "cry wolf," even when there are genuine hate crimes being committed. Fruit of the poisoned tree and all that.
Funny, the same case was made for rape and domestic abuse victims, back in the day. Either they made it all up for attention or to get back at a spurned advance, or they were just giving the guys a hard time. That was the general consensus in those times, and it caused women who were genuine victims of these crimes to remain silent, sometimes for the rest of their lives, and the perpetrators remained free to prey on others.

Glad you can finally use the google to find something maybe you can help Kingnut find a homemade weather model too, he seems to need the help.
@anon 1:13 when do you start your therapy? A week with no Rush Limbaugh would be a good start. Oh yeah, and lay off those skinhead meetings too.
ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty shocking story. My brother is a professor at Michigan State, and although I haven't been there for the best part of seven years I didn't think of East Lansing as being a hot-bed of racism.
ReplyDeleteOr a hot-bed of anything else come to think of it, it's a boring little town.
See, they done tole you that AfAms were just as victimalized as wealthy wite Kochs. Why are you-all still pointing out the racism of gawd-fearin' gawdly men like Addison Graves Wilson...who pays his whites at least a penny more?
ReplyDeleteShould we mention the victimalized woman who marked herself? Or the idiocy of Left Behinds whining about Affirmative Action...but never once decrying Legacy admits?
Or the imported puffy wites who protestanated the Florida vote count in Miami?
The US and World hand you nearly all the goodies on a silver server...and you whine that Steptoe has a nickel.
It is called a Fallacy, former telemarketeers. You are trying so very much to say that all AfAms are like a singular person. Sort of like pretending all whites are as sock-needy as bush. Or as racist as st reagan. Or as clueless and Koch-sucking as Cantor. Or have to dress up in their Vitters.
Herman Cain ran a pizza joint. You know, the glorious business model of paying nothing to the drivers, expecting them to give up their tips for the exalted profit, hiring teenagers so you don't have to offer benefits, and using materials sourced from 'legitimate businessmen'. Gollee Gomer, you sure do have a fantasy of knowing about the Free Market. But, I'll bet it is more that you wisherate you could threaten a 16 yo with unemployment.

Great post and dedication to the coach of the team I loved to hate back in the day, LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteAs for the incident at MSU, I experienced something similar at UF 20+ years ago. So this is just par for the course at white universities which have a high "hick" enrollments, as many state U's do.
About the dumbasses writing racial slurs . . . Well, yeah, that sucks. And?
ReplyDeleteI seem to come off as minimizing racism in my first few posts around here, and it's starting to make me think I'm a dick.
But I can't escape realizing this isn't a lot different than the 'peckerwood fag' and 'kill whitey' written all over the bus stop by my house. It's just some isolated, unimaginative (untalented - that drawing sucks!) dumbass marking things up, because they're jealous or something.
Certainly racism at the societal and institutional levels does exist, but this kind of thing isn't exactly different from 'fat ass,' 'retard,' 'gaywad,' etc. Is it? I'm not sure what I'm trying to say here, but - yes I am: This story isn't exactly helping the cause. It's making it look silly.
That someone would write that ticks me off, too, but c'mon Field, you can do better than that.
It does still suck, though. The nigger is the one who wrote it. So stupid and cowardly! (Told you it pisses me off.) But it would piss me off if someone wrote 'retard' on the locker of an autistic person or something, too. Or 'redneck' on some white dude's locker, for that matter.
Unfortunately, that type of thing is gonna be with us for a long time to come. It's just not news, and there's nothing anyone can really do about it, is all . . .
. . . except maybe put a video camera on the dry-erase board.
As a LA native to see Mr. David go is bitter sweet. On one hand he did a lot to push the game forward but as a Raider fan his old ways of playing football killed us.
ReplyDeleteOn the racism front. The way to solve that is to get a education and start your own business. If you don't ask anyone for anything they won't have any power over you. It's stupid to endure something you don't have to at all. We as a race have to start our own businesses.
Occupy astroturfers turn violent.
ReplyDeleteNBC reported on the violent mob outing.
According to Smithsonian spokesperson Linda St. Thomas, a crowd of “about 100 to 200 people” tried to enter through the museum’s Mall entrance.
“They were carrying signs and a lot of protest materials,” St. Thomas said in a statement. “You cannot bring that stuff into the museum under any circumstances.”
According to St. Thomas, the crowd tried to shove its way into the museum after being denied entry by security.
“One security guard was grabbed and pinned against the wall. He could not extract himself,” the spokesperson said. “Another security guard came over to help him and ended up pepper-spraying one person.”
Videos quickly circulated online showing Smithsonian security telling protesters to “get back” while protesters and bystanders covered their faces to shield themselves from the pepper spray.

False negative guilty you owe me until proven otherwise and lets give a pass to all the black racists so what do you want?
This may be a hoax, but nevermind there is still racism in the country... now how weak of a point is that? Of course there is and for reasons that are ridiculous it is often repeated blacks cant be racist. Right, Affirmative action hate. Some of the biggest racists I have met in my life were black. Who live die and drive most things they say and do around the simple fact of how they look and not who they are.
I won't treat you any differently because you are wrapped differently then the guy next to you. Don't expect me to - either negatively or positively.

. "Some of the biggest racists I have met in my life were black. Who live die and drive most things they say and do around the simple fact of how they look and not who they are."
I have serious doubts you are using the correct definition of racism but I could be wrong. It's this country that forces us to be keenly aware of our differences with the majority. For example, when states allow confederate flags on state buildings and teach confederate history in schools how much of our awareness should we ignore? When major candidates for the presidency says all Blacks are brainwashed how do we get to forget most people view us as childlike and unable to make our own decisions? I would love to be judged on my performance as white males are but we're still a long way from that ain't it all ain't my fault. Check the post about Blacks being in chains and let me know how I should respond to that. As if whites are completly blameless in the racial divisions in this country.
"Can I get you a registration card too, sir?"
ReplyDeleteNah, Republicans are too religious for my tastes. I don't want creationism taught in public school and abstinence only education. Also don't like the anti-labor sentiment. I'll stay an independent. BTW, white aid dependence hurts the country as a whole but I keep forgetting we're supposed to be divided right? Why point out color differences or are you not wanting to be united as Americans? Another reason I won't join the Republican party, too much racial division.

Yes, nothing worse than morality, right?.
Even though creationism is not taught, nor ever will be taught in any American public schools, one can never be too careful.
And even though there is no justification for government employees to be unionized, it's always a good thing to stick it to managment, even when management is us.
On top of that, Republicans refuse to realize that everyone is first and foremost part of an identiity group based on race, gender or ethnicity, and try to push the false idea that we are all Americans first. Absolute rubbish.

I agree with Mr. Field. Both Blacks and Whites need to explain with an example what they 'feel' is racism.
I am a bm in his late sixties, and I have seen racism on both sides. No race has a monopoly on racism. However, the power in this country lies with Whites, who started and perpetuates racism against Blacks.
"Racism is a White man's disease."--Einstein
Hence, some of you Whites like no_slappz and Lib. Tormentor, STOP your own racism and the blacks will follow. Thus far, you are missing the mark by supporting your ancestors who came to America to be free of the tyranny of England....then your ancestors enslave people? That is quite hypocritical of Whites, don't you think?
Face it. Whites NEED to feel superior to Blacks. It's a major part of White Privilege. If you were to eradicate racism, you would lose a vital part of your identity. I mean, who would you be without that superior feeling? I know, I know....it's scary. The ego says "I would be nobody without dominance over Blacks."
Actually, for the first time you would be somebody. You would, for the first time, become part of the human race.
Dear Mr. Field, why haven't you responded to my comment to you regarding Mr. Mack Lyons? Something has to be done about him. He spends too much time harassing Anons. This shit must stop.
ReplyDeletePlease, Mr. Field, I know you have some sense of fairness toward black Conservatives hiding somewhere in you.
One other point: Herman Cain is a political genius and you should honor him for that. I KNOW you watched THE LAST WORD on TV. Herman destroyed O'Donnell! Now, even you must admit very few politicians can do that.
Also, Herman was on the view and when it was all over, they all had a 'positive' view about Herman.
Mark my words, Mr. Field. Herman Cain IS IN THE RUNNING! Now I have once again given you much fodder for future posts but as usual, you fail to recognize me, let alone give me a H/T.
You are not fair, Mr. Field. You hurt me every time you ignore me. I swear, sometimes you are worse than Stormfront.

I agree with your comment, minus the statement that there are white folks capable of becoming part of the human race.
IMHO, there are whites so deeply entrenched in their racism that they are incapable of EVER being a decent member of society, proof of which exists on this blog every single day.
Besides, would you really want to share ANY commonalities with such low-life cretins?
Al Davis also hired the first Latino head coach. Also, I believe that Amy Trask is the highest ranking female in any NFL organization.
ReplyDelete"Yes, nothing worse than morality, right?."
ReplyDeleteMy point exactly, the fact one is without religion doesn't mean they are without morals. As an atheist you proved my point about why I can't go along with the Republican platform. You talk about how there is no threat of creationism being atught in schools but we forget the Dover, Deleware school distric, the Kansas school system as well as schools in Georgia and Louisiana who are pushing religious teachings in the school. Let's also add to the mix the leading GOP presidential candidate boasting about creationism being taught in his home state of Texas. Either governor Perry is lying or doesn't know what is being taught in his state and I for one won't vote for a person who is either ignorant or a lier. Please explain the disconnect.
Let's also not forget part of the Republican platform wants to base foreign policy on the bible. "God will favor those nations that favor Israel". That is a biblical quote placed in the Republican party platform. It's scary that the GOP wants to base American response to foreign issues on a religious text. Isn't that a bit unsettling, it is to me.

My dear Sista Queen, your view sounds 'exactly' like those Whites you call low-lifes.

Another problem I have with Republicans is their comfort with racists. The standard bearer of Republicans is Ronal Reagan who began his presidential campaign in Philadelphia, MS under the guise of "states rights". There were numerous confederate flags in the audience and he seemed a bit too comfortable in that crowd for my tastes. The GOP began using coded racist words to court white voters, Reagan with his false "welfare queen" narrative and such. it continues to this day with equating the Dems and Black people who vote Democratic with "handouts" ignoring the fact that there are millions of middle class, upper class and hardworking Black people who vote Democratic. My friends and family of all races usually vote Democratic and none are on welfare and are doctors, lawyers, construction workers, pilots, teachers ect. This attempt to paint all Blacks and Dems as lazy and in need of handouts is a lie and insulting. Why would I support or wantto join a party that views me as lazy and brainwashed because I decide my interests are better served by one political party vice another? That is racial politics at its worst and then claim they are the party of inclusion. Is this bizarro world? The party that promotes confederate history, didn;t have ONE Black member of congress for 7 years and is approximately 90% white is somehow the party of diversity? C'mon I'm not buying it.

"And even though there is no justification for government employees to be unionized, it's always a good thing to stick it to managment, even when management is us."
ReplyDeleteThe right to unionize should be determined by the employees alone. If a majority of them decide to be represented collectively they should, that's democracy. Sure management can be us but so is labor and labor needs a voice. It's not about sticking it to management it's about having a say in your future. Unions help make the middle class.

Anon@1:07: Face it. Whites NEED to feel superior to Blacks. It's a major part of White Privilege
ReplyDelete----------------
You are wrong about this. I never encounter the kind of racism among white people that most blacks apparently assume exists. Whites have been so traumatized about the charge of racism they would do anything to get away from it, even elect an unexperienced community organizer as President.
Obama knew this, and that is why he carefully crafted a black identity that he was not born into.
The world's been turned upside down: now for advantage one assumes a black rather than white identity. But it's still true that you can pass but you cannot hide. Your life is a loop, you come from a mother and return to one. That's the inexorable pull that draws us to authentic origins--religion, ethnicity, family--as we age. To where will Obama return? Will there be anything there?
Race should be no more important than hair color or left-handedness. The sooner Black America can grasp this truth, the sooner we can move on with the business of building a better future.
We can disagree on policy issues and philosphy but we can't disregard one experiences especially when it comes to politics. Black people, out of necessity, are very aware of how policy affect us. It wasn't that long ago when voting a certain way meant the difference between life and death in some cases. I grew up outside Chicago in a middleclass home with both parents members of unions. I saw how our lives were affected by certain decisions. My mom got good healthcare when she got sick because of the medical benefits afforded her by the plan negotiated by the teacher's union. Had she not had those benefits they might have gone broke paying out of pocket or not gotten the quality of care she received. My family's benefits may not be as good as they are without me being part of a union. Republicans by and large demonize unions and want to eradicate them and their political power which would be bad for me and many others so it behoves us to vote our interests. Until the GOP can convince me they are better for my family's interests I can't in good conscious cast a vote in their direction. This is not a hard and fast declaration because in the future the parties may change their positions on key issues but as of now they are not the logical choice for unionized labor.

ReplyDeleteI disagree with your premise. There is still a great deal of racism out there, i.e. your point of Obama being elected simply because of the color of his skin and not the fact he was a superior candidate to McCain. That thought never seems to cross your mind. If you listen to Limbaugh, Ingrahm, Malkin or any talker on the right there isn't a day that goes by without some form of racial talk. To simply lay all the blame at the feet of Black people who have historically been victims of racial discrimination is short sighted and not very insightful.
"Republicans are the party of opportunity, the Democrats the party of redistribution. Which is more ammenable to individuals creating a business for themselves?"
ReplyDeleteSeeing as though I know numerous business people who are Democrats, including Bob Johnson that meme is very oversimplistic. Hell, my wife and I have started a few businesses and aren't Republicans so I personally reject that notion.

Most whites, particularly white conservatives, would never consider voting for a black.

"Welfare queen false narrative? Bullshit."
ReplyDeleteIt was Ronald Reagan who stated he saw a woman with a Cadillac and fur coats gaming the system. He put a Black face on a system that is also widely used by whites.
"PilotX has no problem with Jimmy Carter starting his campaign at the birth place of the kkk in the south. Also, PilotX has no problem with Jimmy Carter lobbying for a Robert E. Lee day and speaking at Robert E. Lee events."
Didn't know that but as you also asked for proof I also request you provide evidence of this.
"Please provide everyone with video that shows these flags and how comfortable he seemed."
I only recently saw Reagan's presidential kickoff event with numerous confederate flags. To see for yourself you would have to watch the "Lee Atwater story i.e. Boogyman". Included was archival footage that I haven't seen before or since.
"Please refer to youtube for videos of black people wanting Obamacash and Obama gonna pay my rent."
So you are going to reduce the entire Black Democratic voting bloc to a few individuals who are obviously misinformed about the role of the President. Nice. No matter the Black middleclass voters or even the Black millionaires/billionaires. Did Oprah ask for a handout? How about Bob Johnson? And you contend you guys aren't racists. Ha!
"Obama only got 42% of the white vote in his election."
ReplyDeleteAnd only around 10% of the white vote in Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia. Interesting.
What's striking to me is the comfortability of the current GOP with the vestiges of racism. Our anon froend seems to agree that identifying with Robert E. Lee and the confederacy is bad so why is it then no one in the GOP has a problem when their fellow party members vote to keep the confederate flag on the top of the statehouse as Republicans in S.C. did including Joe "you lie" Wilson? How about Virginia governor McConnell reinstituting confederate history month after the previous Democratic governor, knowing how insensitive it is to Black people, removed it? Nothing. Not a peep. So which is it, are the symbols of the confederacy ok or not? Can't have it both ways anon.

Transcript of Ronald Reagan's 1980 Neshoba County Fair speech
ReplyDeleteI don’t believe stereotype after what we did, of people in need who are there simply because they prefer to be there. We found the overwhelming majority would like nothing better than to be out, with jobs for the future, and out here in the society with the rest of us. The trouble is, again, that bureaucracy has them so economically trapped that there is no way they can get away. And they’re trapped because that bureaucracy needs them as a clientele to preserve the jobs of the bureaucrats themselves.
“I believe that there are programs like that, programs like education and others, that should be turned back to the states and the local communities with the tax sources to fund them, and let the people [applause drowns out end of statement].
“I believe in state’s rights; I believe in people doing as much as they can for themselves at the community level and at the private level. And I believe that we’ve distorted the balance of our government today by giving powers that were never intended in the constitution to that federal establishment. And if I do get the job I’m looking for, I’m going to devote myself to trying to reorder those priorities and to restore to the states and local communities those functions which properly belong there.”
For those who can read here's the full transcript.

Typical of the left to play fast and furious with the facts.
Some ignorant people claim that “state’s rights” is just a euphemism for racism. Use of the phrase isn't always racist.
BTW, Obama got 23% of the white vote in Georgia.
Also @ G.O.P. if you dont think white racism exists or is on the decline I would direct you to any conservative website's comment section or any site that runs a story about a Black person. You will see some of the most vile and degrading comments and I ask you this. If you were Black and had a child how would you feel about the comments, including your own, about us? Is it denial or just tone deafness?
ReplyDeleteWasn't it hilarious to watch Bill Bennett condemning "bigotry"?

Sure, sometimes it's not, sometimes it is. When used at a rally in Philadelphia, MS with numerous confederate flags present is it so innocent? Therein lies the problem, he used a word that was a euphamism for Jim Crow in a state known for Jim Crow. That shows an inordinant amount of tome deafness as does the continued support for the confederate flag by Republicans. I see, what percentage of the white vote did Obama get in Alabama and Mississippi. Notice you left those two states out.

Can you imagine the Democrat outrage if Republican poll watchers took to the streets screaming about raping black women and killing black babies?
Democrats support black poll watchers who scream about raping white women and murderering white babies.
Yet fools think Republicans are the racist.
"McCain got 3% of the black vote nationally.
ReplyDeleteInteresting?"
Not really.
He represented a state where the MLK holiday was rejected, had a 3% black population, elected an out and out racist for Governor (Evan Meacham), McCain himself opposed affirmative action and freedom in South Africa, and he brought the nation Sarah Palin.
It's not really complicated.
G.O.P. is no different than racists in the past. Even during the height of Jim Crow most white southerners claimed there was no problem and the only problem was "agitators" from the north trying to disturb their well ordered way of life. Same thing now, they deny the obvious racism in their party and then use charged words like "plantation" to justify the lack of Black participation in their party. So first we're racist because we vote for Obama then we're just infitile and only vote for a D. Which is it? I explained why I don't vote Republican in a thoughtful and articulate manner but for some it all just boils down to I either want a handout or have been trained like a dog to vote Democratic. Until Republicans sit down and ask us and actually listen as to why 90+% don't vote for them they will never get more than 10% of our votes. My guess is they don't care how we feel and as far as we're concerned we obviously don't care how they feel. Do you want our votes or not and if you do lay off the racist rhetoric. Choose wisely.

Another red herring to make Black people appear as racist as whites so they don't have to acknowledge the racism in their party. How about this, I disagree with the NBPP and any politician affiliated with them. Can you say the same? What Democratic governor has announced NBPP history month? What Democratic governor has a NBPP flag flying on state grounds? Don't even try. How long did the NBPPers keep white slaves? How long did the NBPPers keep whites from voting? Nice try though.

I voted for McCain because I knew more that America wasn't "ready" for Prez Obama, than Obama wasn't ready to be Prez. Had Hilary stayed in the race, I probably would have voted for her. Furthermore, if McCain stayed true to who he was in 2004 and picked a sensible running mate, I'm certain the outcome would have been different.
Speaking of running mates, while I can agree that Biden is a far better candidate than Palin, let's not forget who Biden really is. He didn't get that "Obama is clean" comment from his mixed race Sunday school teacher.
Racism is IMHO, FAR worse since Obama was elected and while friends and family of Prez Obama may only get a taste of that every now and then, regular, everyday working Black folks get that "taste" EVERY day.
America simply wasn't "ready" for an Obama presidency, a fact which played considerably in my decision not to vote for him.

Good point. Obama has promoted racialism in an attempt to divide and conquer the electorate. He has no interest in a post-racial America, he needs racial acrimony to advance his statist agenda.
"America simply wasn't "ready" for an Obama presidency, a fact which played considerably in my decision not to vote for him."
ReplyDeleteAmerica never would have been "ready" for any non-white president, let alone Obama. The deep south wasn't "ready" for desegregation, either.
Most people, if given the opportunity to, will do their best to maintain status quo -- to keep things the same.
And while we're on this subject, Black folks need to get real about the fact that for most of us, like isn't better since Prez Obama's election.
ReplyDeleteNow I'm certainly not saying it would have been better with McCain, just that your white coworkers wouldn't be able to look at YOU and partially blame "YOU" for it, had he not been elected.
So it seems to me that many of you forgot that ol' rule of the actions of a few, being ascribed to many.

So why were so many of you willing to set the man up to fail?
As for the comment about the deep South, that turns this into an apples and oranges argument IMHO. The argument held during desegregation because the quality of life for Blacks significantly improved during that time.
But can Black folks say the same thing today at the peak of Obama's presidency? Hell naw! Yeah, I "get" that a lot of the blame falls on the Bush administration, but the bottom fell out during Obama's presidency. And unfortunately THAT is what history will record, who was on "watch" when Black prosperity took a turn for the worse.

How are those concepts in any way mutually exclusive?
Obama created a black identity that was non-existent until his late 20's.
Obama needs to exacerbate feelings of racial acrimony both to attack his enemies (e.g. the Tea Party) and to keep his supporters motivated. Any lessening of the racial divide weakens his power base.
He needs you to think his oppponents are motivated only by race, and he will do whatever it takes to keep that wound open.

ReplyDelete"Republicans refuse to realize that everyone is first and foremost part of an identiity group based on race, gender or ethnicity, and try to push the false idea that we are all Americans first."
I get the sacrasm and I wish this were true but how many Republicans do you see right here on this blog that claim Black people only vote Democratic for this or that. Is that not identity politics? Another reason I can't get with Republicans, they seem to be unaware of their rhetoric and then act is if somehtings wrong with me for noticing.
NO, its called the TRUTH. Look up racial voting statistic and then explain to me why it is OK for 95+% of Blacks to vote for Obama/Democratic but then it is racist for someone to observe this FACT. You are ridiculous with your double standards. If you dont want people to think you like pork fried rice, then don't eat it 5 times a week.

ReplyDeleteOne minute you ignorant goobers are saying Obama is not "really" black and has no real affinity with black Americans, the next you're claiming he's promoting racial acrimony.
HOW?"
It's called wingnuttery.

As I asked your lackey uptownsteve, how are those concepts in any way mutually exclusive?
I am certain that without affirmative action, someone of your deductive capacity would never have been admitted to and never would have graduated from any real law school.

ReplyDeleteThe Republican party claims it's racist for 95% of black Americans to vote Dem, but if 95% of blacks were voting GOP, them doing so would be noted as a "sane and reasonable decision."
The GOP looks at the so-called "plantation" and wishes those negros tolling in the fields were theirs to order around.
"I never encounter the kind of racism among white people that most blacks apparently assume exists. Whites have been so traumatized about the charge of racism they would do anything to get away from it, even elect an unexperienced community organizer as President."
ReplyDeleteWillya stop?
Obama only got 42% of the white vote in his election.
Most whites, particularly white conservatives, would never consider voting for a black.
Almost every election in urban areas where there are somewahat even amounts of blacks and whites and where black and whote candidates run against each other, the votes come down along racial lines.
And this means what you dimwitted KKK-Klown what does Obama have to get more then 95% of the white vote like he did with blacks to make any statement against racism? Did you ever think that people just saw the incompetent no experienced anti american boob he would become and was just by looking and really listening to what he said and ignoring the Mainstream cheerleading team?
The trolls here are cycling through identities the same way Imelda Marcos cycled through shoes. Pathetic.

ReplyDelete"As I asked your lackey uptownsteve, how are those concepts in any way mutually exclusive?"
Okay, I'll go slow for you.
If Obama has no real connection to black America, then on what platform could he be riling them up against white folks?
"I am certain that without affirmative action, someone of your deductive capacity would never have been admitted to and never would have graduated from any real law school"
While you're at it could you explain how affirmative action would have assisted Field in passing the bar exam?

No, you do not have the right to be a dirty hypocrite anymore, but at least you admit the white rich democrats have you to order around toiling in the fields as they see fit. All they have to do is say ANYTHING they dont like is racism and no matter how insulting the claim is to your intelligence or at least should be, you bite the hook and head back to the pond where they keep you for the next vote.
Of course not your voting conservative is not reasonable, in fact for someone like you it would be insane. Democrats are perfect for what you wish with the racial pandering, set asides for specific races, overt racism, game playing and divisiveness, policies, extremely low standards or rather racial excuses for criminal behavior and corruption and literally no standards of ethics or intelligence. Again, You would be insane to go conservative with your outlook and being the type of person you seem to be.
In fact until the day comes when you can recognize a incompetent senator who doesnt have enough brains to know Islands don't tip over or call out congressman for stealing, cheating, lying , taking bribes, the best thing you can do is keep voting democrat. If you go conservative you would be expected to immediately condemn anyone with bad behaviour such as this and we know this can't happen if they are Black otherwise you would be a Tom.
Steve, you know how it is with wingnuts. God forbid a black man can actually crack a book and earn a living. Yet they always scream that black folks should work hard and live the merican dream,and when a poor black man from Ja tries to do it they scream Af. Action. Ironic isn't it? A brotha can't win with these winguts.:)
ReplyDeleteI wonder if Cory Lane owns a company that actually creates jobs.
"NO, its called the TRUTH. Look up racial voting statistic and then explain to me why it is OK for 95+% of Blacks to vote for Obama/Democratic but then it is racist for someone to observe this FACT."
ReplyDeleteOK, so how then do you explain the fact that Kerry and Gore got almost 90% of the Black vote? If yu attribute it to racism then only approximately 5% of the Black voting population is racist. Good observation. You must be a genius.
'Democrats are perfect for what you wish with the racial pandering, set asides for specific races, overt racism, game playing and divisiveness, policies, extremely low standards or rather racial excuses for criminal behavior and corruption and literally no standards of ethics or intelligence.."
ReplyDeleteThose all sound like republican traits to me. Who sets aside stuff for their friends more than those clowns? And let's not even talk about corruption and "racial pandering".
They wrote the book on all of those things. (See Lee Atwater, who, thankfully, is rotting somewhere in hell right now.)
"Good point. Obama has promoted racialism in an attempt to divide and conquer the electorate. He has no interest in a post-racial America, he needs racial acrimony to advance his statist agenda."
ReplyDeleteYeah because nothing would promote electoral success in a country that is 70% white than a Black man using race as a tactic. Sign this man up as a Palin consultant. Rush Limbaugh logic at its finest. No wonder they think the NBPPers are a threat to this country and Obama is a secret Kenyan plant. Geniuses.
"overt racism"

Seems to me its the Republicans who keep vestiges of racism alive and well nowadays. They are the ones resurrecting confederate history month and voting to keep the confederate flag flying on state grounds. It ain't the Dems. So excuse me for calling the GOP out for their very overt racism.

Um, that would be his manufactured connection.
You are just playing dumb, right?
"Um, that would be his manufactured connection."
ReplyDeleteSpell it out for us please.
BTW to earlier anon, still waiting for that proof about Jimmy Carter attending a Robert E. Lee celebration event. Maybe I'll see it the same time I see the weather model Kingnut promised me. Tick tock.
"Democrats support black poll watchers who scream about raping white women and murderering white babies.
ReplyDeleteYet fools think Republicans are the racist."
And this is the type of genius you want me to associate myself with in the Republican party?
Two questions genius 1. Do you think the confederate flag is a racist symbol? 2. How long has the confederate flag been associated with white racists and how long have the NBPP and C.A.I.R. been in existance? Just wondering.
you know field i have seen a lot of this over the years and after an investigation it turns out that the perp turns out to be the victim.
ReplyDeletejimmy carter is in the pocket of saudia arabia.cair has been around for as long as pisslam has been around and you are an infidel.you should look up what they have to say about you.
ReplyDeletei guess allman did not like mexicans.
ReplyDeleteso many racist so little time to find them all so lets make up some.
ReplyDelete@Field Negro...U sure you are a field negro...lol
ReplyDeleteanyway....U said something about start your own business and you won't have to ask anyone for anything. Most businesses usually require some type of start up capital...which means you will probably need a loan or investors...sorry...U have to ask somebody for something sweetie.
