I thought (mistakenly) that such eloquence could only come from a genius like Major Owens.

Speaking of Major Owens. How are those sharks doing on the slave trade route. Still waiting for an easy meal?

For those who don't know, Major Owens was a Congressman from Harlem who was a regular on the Special Orders speech roster. Were you to tune in to one of those gems, you'd swear you were listening to the Best of Art Bell because Owens obviously inhabited some alternate reality organized not by the laws of physics, but the laws of racism. I'll say this much for Major Owens: he inspired me to write a grad school paper on the 14th Amendment because he claimed in one of his speeches that it could not be colorblind in application because it was written for, and only for, black people.
