Color is the bugaboo that we just cannot escape – even and especially when it should be the least important thing discussed. Which brings me to the discussions that the ignorant, race-mongers are having pursuant to Gabby Douglas.
Miss Douglas has won two gold medals at the London Olympic Games. But in her case, winning two gold medals isn’t enough. The obligatory focus on the color of her skin by the politically correct, is sickening, but the ridicule she is receiving from blacks punctuates the statement made by Rev. James Manning that “black people are honorless, incorrigible idiots.”
that is why the left hate her, She thanked God and that sent them in their hateful bigotry again.
It’s time for the black community to wake the hell up and understand that the Dems only want blacks to stay in their plantation so to speak and we all know the party of the KKK and slavery knows about that.
What do the liberal democrat African-Americans, want Miss Douglas to look like? Buckwheat?
neevr use the term African AMerican as whites can be that too.
It just shows how pathetic and stupid the left are when it comes to that term.
She had not seen it. A reporter told her about it, so she googled herself afterward and was just flabbergasted at what she found. I think it is beyond disgusting. This little girl worked so hard and was the best of the best, and then she was told that was not enough.
I have a friend who was born and raised in Africa and now is an American through marriage. She speaks with an accent and has red hair and very white skin. She is an African-American.
“A reporter told her about it”
Said reporter needs his/her teeth knocked out.
What purpose did telling her that even serve??
It was Indianapolis and Chicago. What was really great was what Tony Dungy, the Colts coach, said after winning the game:
“I’m proud to be the first African-American coach to win this,” Dungy said during the trophy ceremony. “But again, more than anything, Lovie Smith and I are not only African-American but also Christian coaches, showing you can do it the Lord’s way. We’re more proud of that.”
Got a link? I’ll go compliment the heck out of her.
Man, this makes me angry!!
And according to some liberal slug, "very into Jesus".
Pretty awesome that they all stand together and support each other. Makes us proud!
Naturally Moochelle gets a pass, being an affirmative action leftist who never accomplished a thing on her own. As soon as Gaby mentioned “God”, the left saw her as a Christian which means she must be on the right(as if the poor girl probably even gives much thought to politics), making her a target for the left.
That would be a more accurate use of “African American” though I wish we would just all be “American”. But that wouldn’t be to the benefit of the race industry which divides in order to conquer.
Just the purpose they intended-some headlines via racial sh*t-stirring.
She’s an awesome young lady, and, apparently the best darn little gymnast in the world.
Me, I’d be pretty proud and happy for her.
Some people are never happy.
I bet these people (the complainers) are the same people who go around their neighborhood messing up nice cars and painting on walls because other people are “getting above their station.”
[ I know, some blacks are on a rampage because she straightens her hair and that means she’s trying to be white, according to them. It couldn’t have anything to do with the fact that a gymnast needs to keep their hair out of their face. ]
I know some white men and women who perm their hair and wear it in cornrows. I say it is all good! There isn’t a “Black Hairstyle” or a “White Hairstyle” there is just Hairstyles!
The only Hairsyle I cannot strand is the “Dog turn dreadlocks”, which I only see on white hippie folks and that is because they don’t wash their hair and are hippies.
I know. The average white person’s hair doesn’t “naturally” dreadlock so it’s especially nasty, considering what they have to resort to to achieve “dreadlocks”-all the hair product, no washing, etc.
It allowed a person who has accomplished nothing worth mentioning to upset a person who has accomplished something earning wide acclaim. That made the reporter feel better!
That said, the coach should have kept her away from Google, too.
Crabs in a bucket... that’s what the dependency class/victim class are, nothing but crabs in a bucket. They’d rather pull one about to escape the bucket back down, than let it be free and prove that escape is possible.
Yeah...because we don’t already have enough of that.
Good grief.
I’ve been watching the Olympics sporadically and the *only* thing I’m looking for is the little US flag patch most of our athletes have on their person, somewhere.
I didn’t see one on Gabby’s silver leotard but had already come to know her as ‘our girl’.
I rooted for the colors of that flag more so than the people who wore it.
[I must be some kind of weirdo]
:-P
