I might be the only one here at ATRW that still listens to Blabbity, but I wanted to relay on to you what I heard on his show today. He had J. C. Watts on for a segment Blabbity has his 'good friend' Watts on periodically. The only major objection that I have ever had to J.C. Watts was that he played football (QB) at Oklahoma, and I went to Oklahoma State University, their arch rival, but in politics, that's neither here nor there.
I have always had a slight uneasy gut feeling about J.C. Watts, but today it exploded into a grave concern about him.
When Blabbity started in with the negatives about B. Hussein O., i.e., 'Rev.' Wright, b.H.O's ties to the Weather Underground Bomber, etc., each and every single time, Watts came to b.H.O.'s defense, even referring him, at one point, as a 'good guy' and even using the word 'genuine'. I seriously wonder who Watts is going to vote for between B.H.o. and McCain? He sounded like he is totally in the b.h.o. camp.
The other thing that came blasting through the interview was that either Blabbity was totally ignorant, in total denial, or just plain chicken to confront Watts about those positions Watts was taking.
Sadly, Two-thirds, I have concluded that most black people identify with their race over any other parameter. I would like to be disabused of this notion, but everything I have seen over the last few months tells me it is true.
Hey Thirds what you building...rocketship wise.
Thanks for the enlightenment. I can only imagine who J.C. will vote for...
With McCain publically saying that Ding-Dong would be a good president, and all the tip-toeing around any criticism of His Blackness by republicans, I'd say we're pretty much screwed.
On that dire note, let me lighten my post with a joke that was just sent to me by an elderly lady-friend. Hope it's not too risque for the thread.
Upon hearing that her elderly grandfather had just passed away, Katie went straight to her grandparent's house to visit her 95-year-old grandmother and comfort her. When she asked how her grandfather had died, her grandmother replied,'He had a heart attack while we were making love on Sunday morning.'
Horrified, Katie told her grandmother that 2 people nearly 100 years old having sex would surely be asking for trouble.
'Oh no, my dear,' replied granny. 'Many years ago, realizing our advanced age, we figured out the best time to do it was when the church bells would start to ring. It was just the right rhythm. Nice and slow and even...Nothing too strenuous,simply in on the Ding and out on the Dong.'
She paused to wipe away a tear, and continued, "He'd still be alive if the ice cream truck hadn't come down the street".
