>>Ann Coulter (TownHall.com) has a really good column today.
And Thomas Sowell...
A quote:
"....Many among the intelligentsia portray the black redneck culture today as the only "authentic" black culture and even glamorize it. They denounce any criticism of the ghetto lifestyle or any attempt to change it.
Teachers are not supposed to correct black youngsters who speak "black English" and no one is supposed to be judgmental about the whole lifestyle of black rednecks. In that culture, belligerence is considered being manly and crudity is considered cool, while being civilized is regarded as "acting white."
My copy of Sowell's book arrived yesterday....haven't started it yet...lawn mowing was crucial if my lawn was not to be mistaken for a jungle.
