Buckwheat has brought to an end a lot of political careers.

Democrats are secret racists and have been for their entire existence. The racism they accuse Republicans of having is their own projection.

Let’s call this episode “Buckwheat’s Revenge”.

If the Democrats don’t behave themselves, we’ll let Robert Blake loose on them. He’ll do a good “Spanky” on them.

God, weren’t the “Our Gang” and “Little Rascals” a really funny bunch of kids? They were integrated both ethnically and racially long before most of America was.

And look at “Laurel and Hardy”, the “Three Stooges” and “Abbott and Costello” (or as my son said when he was very young, “Abostello”).

Some of the funniest black men in the early movies included “Step’n Fetchit”, “Rochester” - Eddie Anderson of the Jack Benny Show, and Mantan Moreland (”Feets don’t fail me now!”)

They all had a long road to hoe in white America, but they remain beloved people in their profession and as a source of pride for Afro-Americans who realize that they were the trailblazers for Bill Cosby, Eddie Murphy, Richard Pryor, Sinbad, and Cedric the Entertainer.
