Yet another great column by Mr. Sowell. He is, indeed, a voice crying in the wilderness. I think one of the saddest statements I have heard in my lifetime was the lament by Clarence Thomas the other night on Hannity when the Justice said he just couldn’t understand why blacks treat him the way they do. May God help the dominant black culture in this country and those of us — of all races —who are its victims.
The “rule of law” is not just a pat phrase...
We are still waiting for the 88 to resign.
WEB Dubious won out over Booker T Washington. Jim Crow won out over decency. BET and MTV won over the Gospel. Drugs won over everything.
Can’t really salvage much. Blacks who act like their forefathers did are called “acting white” now.
As I see it, something like 98% of everything which most people view as black problems in America are actually demokkkrat problems. Outlaw and ban the demokkkrat party, and most of the problems which blacks experience living in America will simply evaporate within three years.
It’s truly a shame the way Justice Thomas treated and Dr. Sowell is ignored by many, they are two of the finest thinkers in our nation.
We know that'll never happen and only one of them apologized, they are a disgrace to the country.
Which is why liberals love them.
Indeed they are. A joy to read.
Thanks for the ping...but I actually read this one before you pinged me! A rarity.
“steady diet of the racial polarization that Nifong promoted would make it only a matter of time before we would see in America the kind of violence seen between Sunnis and Shiites in Baghdad.”
I take it he’s never been to East L.A., South Chicago, or any other place with a black/hispanic civil war going on?
I was also surprised to find this at GOPUSA so early, they’re usually the last to put his columns up.
I have a hunch he’s fully aware of it, he doesn’t miss much. Probably making his point with a much broader view in mind.
Good question, let's ask Scooter!
Another reminder of where our moral compasses should be pointed from Dr Sowell. Why Nyfong isn’t spending ten yers behind bars is beyond me. Scooter Libby gets jailed and Nyfong attempts to railroad three guys into lengthy jail sentences and is given a slap on the hand !
Jesse Jackson was on Hannity & Colmes tonight...Sean tried to get JJ to apologize to the three Duke lacrosse players and of course the Reverend refused.
Perhaps a look at the political party affiliation of these two gentlemen might provide a useful clue.
Jackson is one of the most repulsive people in the country, IMO. He’s both a racist and race baiter and does the black communities no favors.
Between this column and the two columns on Clarence Thomas, this is the finest week for Sowell columns in a long time. And that’s saying a lot. Sowell is the best political columnist in the nation (followed just behind by Mark Steyn and Jonah Goldberg, in that order.)
