Why did a man who wishes to be President of the United States not respect our national anthem with the traditional ‘hand over heart’ salute?
A. It was a simple oversight. He was distracted by the excitement of the event he was attending.
B. He has no respect for America’s traditions or customs. He considers them to be ‘white customs’ i.e. symbols of black oppression. There is only one flag he will salute: the African flag.
Why did a candidate for President put on the customary garb of a Muslim nation if he was not required to do so?
A. It was nothing more than a gesture honoring the people of Kenya.
B. Because He considers himself a Black African first and an American second.
Why did the wife of a presidential candidate state that she had never taken pride in her country until last month?
A. She really intended to say that she’d never taken pride in her nation’s government.
B. She said exactly what she meant. She doesn’t like America and the reason she doesn’t is that it’s ruled by whites.
Why did Barack Obama refuse to decline the endorsement of a racist hate monger when it was obvious that accepting the endorsement implied agreement with the hate monger’s doctrines?
A. He was just pandering for the votes.
B. He was being true to his own racist indoctrination.
Is a man racist if he attends an Afro-centrist “church”? Dare we even ask what an Afro-centrist “church” is?
A. Only a white racist would ask such a question.
B. Afro-centrism is racism under a less negative name.
I learned the answer to all of these questions some 15 years ago in a most disturbing way. I had a job assignment at a south side Chicago Public grammar school. I was stunned and amazed when I first walked in there to discover that above every classroom door there hung an “African flag”. Beneath every flag, posted at eye level, was a copy of the African pledge of allegiance:
WE PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE RED, BLACK AND GREEN, OUR FLAG, THE SYMBOL OF OUR ETERNAL STRUGGLE, AND TO THE LAND WE MUST OBTAIN; ONE NATION OF BLACK PEOPLE, WITH ONE GOD FOR US ALL, TOTALLY UNITED IN THE STRUGGLE, FOR BLACK LOVE, BLACK FREEDOM AND BLACK SELF-DETERMINATION.
Now I know that you Leftys and black racists will say that the children at this school were being taught black pride. You’ve been excusing black racist indoctrination with that excuse for 40 years now. But it is time to end this charade. Racism is racism no matter who practices it. Continents do not have flags. Flags are designed to define boundaries of exclusion and inclusion. The Klan has a flag and there are other white power flags besides that one. They are tolerated in this country only because of our free speech doctrine- but they are also roundly shunned and adamantly condemned by all races for their inhuman positions – as they should be. But black racism and brown racism and every other form of racism and bigotry ought to be just as openly condemned. The old game of pretending that racism and bigotry are one way streets traveled only by white people needs to end. It is tearing our country apart.
The people who define racism and bigotry in the West (the intellectual elite) have it all screwed up. It is important, if we ever hope to understand the true nature of racism, to define it rationally.
1. Discrimination: To reasonably distinguish between that which is good, bad, better and worse. Discrimination is a natural trait essential to human survival. Every human being discriminates.
2. Bigotry: To base genetic or other conditional factors negatively into one’s discriminatory process. This is also a natural trait of human beings. We instinctually identify the differences in “other” people types in order to judge whether or not they might be a threat to the safety of “our” people types. When we do this unfairly we go beyond discrimination to bigotry.
3. Racism: When a person harbors an extreme exclusionary discrimination factor for race.
No conversation about race or any other form of bigotry should ever begin until both sides understand and agree to these definitions.
It would be foolish to deny, as Leftist do, that race is a valid or useful factor in our day to day process of discriminating. We all hope that someday skin color will become a nonfactor but as of yet mankind has not achieved this noble ideal. So I am not offended by the fact that Barack Obama is a racist. I understand the indoctrination that he’s been through and the justifications he uses to support his right to be a racist. But I will exercise my ability to discriminate between that which is better and that which worse for me and not vote for someone who may intend to do me and my country great harm simply because he’s been indoctrinated to hate an imaginary “white America”.
I went back to that school yesterday to see if those flags were still up. I’m happy to say that they were not. I consider that a good sign and I hope it signifies a trend for the future. Maybe our children will go further in eliminating the isms than we did. Or maybe this Presidential candidate will revive all the hatred and bigotry he may be harboring due to his associations with, and support of, the Black Nationalist Movement.

EXCELLENT POST , all of the liberal racist on this sight should be forced to read this before they walk over the edge of the cliff with "obama" it would be a less painful death if they just shot themselfs !!!!!!
Thanks for the compliment Joe.
I hope you'll calm down soon and try to make peace with everyone around here. You don't have to join 'em but you sure ain't gonna beat 'em. Make it easy on yourself.
Dear Sir Nobull, It's good to be aware of possible excesses but it is soon to be labeling Obama a reverse racist. We are all affected by our histories. Meanwhile, I would beware of any thoughts that elicit compliments from Joezs.
I have not met anyone yet at Blogster whom I have not learned something from. Joe's frustrated and angry but it's just possible that you don't quite understand why. Simply dismissing him as a racist is reactionary and your negative reaction may be preventing you from picking up on clues about the so-called "angry white man". Joe's an ideal subject for that examination.
"Reverse racist" is an interesting term. The implication is that Barack, et al, is reacting to racism directed against him. You don't know that to be a fact. Indocrination from Leftists, media, the educational system, black racial organizations and the policies of the Democratic party have all acted to convince blacks, beginning in their childhood, that white people are screwing them. 98% of the basis for that belief has been eliminated in my lifetime.
As for labeling Barack a racist it's true that enough evidence is not in to convince most people that he is a racist. My opinion (and I believe I have the experience to fairly judge) is that he has a serious animosity toward whites - and his wife seems barely able to contain her own racism. But that is not to say that being a racist will necessarily preclude Obama from being a good and fair President. Some would say that one or more of our past Presidents have been white racists.
This man has the intelligence to overcome his racism but I don't see that he has any desire to do so. (I'm betting Joe would agree with this statement, too)
Dang it! I meant the comment below for you.
Maybe this time my reply to Tealstar will go where it belongs!!!!!
Tealstar you old dried up lesbian your so-called brain is as wrinkled and shriveled up as your butt!
I think this present culture is manufacturing "angry white men" at an alarming rate. I am white and I never was a racist, never had to fight BEING a racist, it just wasn't a part of who I am. I'm still NOT a racist....but....I'm having to fight it. Why?
Because they are rubbing their filth in our face and forcefeeding it to us and telling us that we the many have to love and eat the S^it they the few want us to and if we don't we are RACIST ,, will fine if someone wants to call me a racist ,they better be ready to fight !!!!
Do you think you're really fighting it? Or are you just dodging accusations?
The standards for who are and are not racists/bigots has been so distorted by the Left that the mere fact that you are not black/gay/female/etc automatically makes you racist/homophobic/sexist/etc in the eyes of many. You never owned a slave either but that does not mean you won't have to apologize for slavery or pay reparations.
The Left has changed the definition of sanity, too. Never let them convince you that you are the crazy one.
Dear Nobull, Joe's response above is why I can't take him seriously, except to get out of his way when he is foaming at the mouth. I don't care how angry he is or how "justified" you think he might be, his approach is totally dysfunctional and gives a bad name to whatever he espouses. When you are infantile, no one you are railing at wantsto listen. He is abusive. There is no excuse for abuse and I " have the expericence to fairly judge." Take for example his "lesbian" remarks. The last refuge of a lapsedbrain.
I don't remember Joe always having been this vituperate. I suppose he might jump on me next but if he does it will not have the least effect on me.
I will stay but will have a .llook at greasy.com or whatever as well.
nobull: I am constantly amazed how with such ease you condemn others! Obama was pictured not holding his hand over his heart and wore a costume not to your liking. Add one and one and you call out "racist." I do not salute the flag nor do I rise at the national anthem. Obviously I am unpatriotic. Bye the bye, note the adolescent responses your post elicited.
I still can't tell in this new system if my replys are being properly posted. In any case there's one here for you somewhere.
Where we differ (I think) is that in your eyes my suggestion that Obama is racist is a 'condemnation' (your word). I don't condemn him for his racism I only acknowledge it. The human need to discriminate invariably leeds to some degree or other of bigotry in all of us. I'm certain that you would have no difficulty in recognizing the racist nature of a white person but it seems (for a reason I simply cannot fathom) that it is far more difficult for people of your ideology to recognize it in nonwhites.
The fact that you don't salute the flag is a matter of where you've placed your values in life. Being that you are a product of our educational system I am not the least bit surprised by your mind-set. But when a man who wants to become President of a country refuses to salute the flag of that country do you really think he has any legitimate right to rule that country?
nobull: Where is it said Obama "refuses" to salute the flag? And yes, I agree that there is racism among nonwhites. As to being a product of "our educational system," since I was in school in the 1930s, does your remark still hold?
So.........How do we promote change in The U S of A???????>>>>>>
Open, honest and fearless discussion is essential. Right now political correctness prevents anyone who is not black from speaking out on the social problems in that community. This kind of intimidation has to end. We all must be free to speak about the moral decay that is being generated within and outward from "thug culture", "gangsterism" "pseudo-Christianity" and other currupt influences coming from the black American experience. The same applies to the Mexican uprising that is taking place and the moral decline in all of American society generally speaking. Can any of this actually be overcome. Perhaps it could if there was a popular movement to give a damn.
Hmmm. The more things change, the more they remain the same. I see you don't blog much lately either. Best wishes.
Excellent term, "reverse racist." I sincerely think Obama understands racism and has a glimpsing view of what to do about it.
In any case, nobull, I am not an Obama supporter. Please explain to Joez that my butt is wrinkle free, pinkish and toned, and eminently caressable. :)
dear ben, was this for me? I got a note in my e mail, but this particular post has so many comments I can't find my way. I'm blogging on the other site. As I explained in a message to you, I'm trying to find time to post on both sites.
Yes, teal. 'twas for thee. The "improvements" they've made here will mature in 9 months.
I wish I could explain that to Joez but I don't have first hand knowledge of your claim. Damnitall.
Amazing!!! Truely amazing! I don't care who you are or what background you have, I have to say that, while I don't see an end to racism anywhere near, we must all continue our fight in the hopes of a more unified and accepting nation.
