There is real, awesome, surprising and inspiring African history to see that is good and shows the many good peoples of all the nations of Africa...WHY do liberals support the efforts of KNOWN liars in their unending effort to LIE about what roles people had in the troubles of Africa? I will tell you why, they do NOT want to share any responsibility whatsoever. It is an unescapble fact that many were sold into slavery by their own people, and the Portugese had more involvement than most. While America is guilty of the sin of slavery there are multitudes of others who started it, promoted it, benefited from it and protected it.

Thank God for men like Lincoln (Republican by the way as the founders of the Democrat party were busy protecting slavery) and others like the U.K’s Wilberforce who stood against it.

They lie because it is profitable and because the truth reveals how ridiculous they are in blaming white Americans for all of their problems.

That’s right-great post.

Go to your public library and look for Roots—it’s in the FICTION section. It’s a lot of biased BS by the plagarist Haley who also helped Malcolm X with his autobio full of lies —Read “Malcolm” by Bruce Perry-that’s the book to read—Malcolm X was a fraud who was Clintonesque in his serial lying about his life.

Hell, anyone sounds good if they’re the one’s writing it, and they don’t care about the truth.What’s harmful is this BS gets ate up by a bunch of low IQ people with anger, loking to excuse away their own failures, with a chip on the shoulder and no impulse control and they act upon it. It’s always nice to have a fairy tale to explain/excuse your own failures.

Lest you think I’m overstating it—it says in the article the judge in the case was anxious not to be the bad guy against an “ascendant black hero” or some crap. My ass. These freaking people talk about “keeping it real”, but all you get is lies and BS.

Slavery was a bad thing, but it’s not the reason blacks have problems today.

Oh and another thing—they had the movie Amistad or something a few years ago-Spielberg’s white guilt flop movie loosely based on a true story about a group of slaves who reach the US in the 1820s or so, and petition for freedom-with the help of ex-President John Quincy Adams. They win and go back to Africa, thanks to their noble black leader, Cinque. How heartwarming.

However, the real Cinque went back to Africa and became.....wait for it.....a slave trader—catching and selling his fellow Africans into the same life he escaped from.

Like the freed American slaves who were sent to Liberia, and made plantation of their own (rubber trees) and enslaved the natives.

Back when this was going on, I happened to have read both “The African” and “Roots”. That one was based on the other was blazingly obvious. Not only was Haly a plagiarist, he was a BAD plagiarist.

The guy who wrote the book for Haley, Murray Fisher, was a BAD plagiarist.

Thats a damn fact! Just look at the medals that hanoi john got in vietnam on the strength of the after action reports that HE wrote.

I have heard theories that Frank Marshall Davis is The One's actual father, and there is some circumstantial evidence to believe it was *possible* (given "Frank" in his memoirs lived nearby and Ma was, shall we say, into black communists).

But I haven't heard that Malcomb X may be the daddy... Unless that's not what you're saying?

Davis and Sr Obama didn’t have the facial expressions/likeness that Malcolm X hadto 0b0z0.

Also, those of us who can remember Malcolm’s verbal delivery style hear something when 0b0z0 does his messiah deliveries.

So Polarik did the blending of Malcolm into 0b0z0.

What’s so sad about the soft racism of low expectations is that it undermines the genuine accomplishments of other blacks.
