My democrat bro-in-law in NYC, very, very elite btw, was driving and cut off by a black woman with a big Obama sign on her car.

She pointed to the Obama sign and gave bro-in-law the middle finger salute.

There is an undercurrent in the black community that their ascendency under Obama and his possible presidency will give them license to thumb their noses at convention.

This is going to be a very interesting time for all of us.

Isn't there an old Chinese curse that says "May you live in interesting times?"

Not just in the black community, IMO. Virtually every non-”white” group seems (to me at least), starting to develop a decided chip on the shoulder. What these folks might not realize, however, is that we’re being pushed to a point where we’ll feel we have nothing to lose.

Think about it: It’s beginning to seem that anything — and I mean *anything* that doesn’t involve a complete capitulation and “joyful embrace” of any pronouncement of a “person of color” is immediately and loudly denounced as “racist”, “bigoted”, or at the very least “extreme.”

Eventually, we’re going to feel so pushed into a corner, we’re going to stop caring, and that’s when things are going to really get interesting. As an example, look at the AGW crowd. The more that legitimate sources question AGW, the shriller the proponents get. It’s a vicious cycle: One side gets shriller and more arrogant, and the other responds with the truth (about Barry O, AGW, Wright, et al.).

Somewhere somethin’s got to give.

The day may soon be coming when many of us won’t be shouted down or intimidated into silence any longer.

See, I oppose Obama because I think he'd be a lousy, socialist President.

You oppose Obama because if he gets elected, the black folk will get uppity? Uh...
