"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
Hey, Ann, you forgot that there are a LOT of angry white people over this whole matter. Why, do we have to move on? Just because you say so?
Why don't you just move on and do more campaigning for Hillary!!
Headline?
Obama's grandmother to be charged with hate crime
Obama mulling options
Exactly, although I don't know who the "we" is. It's liberals who treat blacks like children.
PING!!!
Ping! Sorry goldstategop...
This is what irks me about Obama. He has no more respect for his Grandmother than to drag her into this crap. I suppose it shouldn’t be surprising.
” First of all, Wright is not Obama’s uncle. “
That`s right Ann, Barry Hussein ADOPTED Wright
as his ‘uncle’ AFTER hearing his hate filled racist
rants !
How`s that !?
Ann's wrong about the segregation thing, though. A lot of African-Americans who were around before 1965 still rankle about living in a country where segregation existed. The fact that a person might not personally have gone to segregated schools doesn't affect that.
Segregated schools and washrooms and water-fountains in another part of the country were symbols that people reacted to strongly, even if they didn't experience them personally.
When minorities from other nations can come to this country and through their hard work and acceptance of American values make it, the question needs to be ask, why can not native born minorities make it?
If this nation was racist, why is one of the richest woman in this country black (Oparh)?
If this nation was racist, why do our young people try to emulate the culture of the ghettos (hip hop, rap, and everything that goes with it)?
If this nation was racist, why are many of our top military people black?
There are countries within this world that really know what racism is. Try being an outsider in Japan (assuming you could even emigrate). Look at the caste system in India where it is almost impossible for someone born within one caste to move out of it.
There are very few nations in this world like the United States where if you work hard you can succeed.
I will concede there may be isolated, individual acts of racism within this nation, but it is not state sanctioned, it is not the law, nor is it the custom.
If we were to be really honest with ourselves we would ask the one question that never gets asked. Are blacks better off today then they were before the civil right movement?
Before the 1960 there was a large black middle class society within this nation. If the civil rights movement would have stopped with making it illegal for any government agency to descriminate, we all would be better off today. Instead we got the "Great Society", and affirmative action, and a whole host of laws that can do nothing but create resentment from one side towards the other.
Blacks have opportunities today they did not have before but many have choosen not to make use of those opportunities. Their failure is not because of white racism, but a choice they or someone in their life made.
Men impregnating girls then abandoning them.
Declaring getting an education, or speaking correct english as beng an "uncle tom" and putting peer presure on others not to try.
Using drugs.
And the list goes on.These problems are not caused by racism, but by decisions made by individuals.
I am with Ann on this, it is time that individuals take responsibility for their action and not blame other for their misfortune.
Brilliant stuff from Ann Coulter. Just when you think she’s too crazy to take seriously, she hits another home run.
