Me,too. I'm wondering where my mother came up with "I'm gonna slap you into next week."

"Acting up" is pretty mainstream--plenty of whites say that. "Acting out" is the therapeutic generation's new catchphrase. Use of "acting out" suggests that someone has been to a shrink lately, or watched too much Oprah.

Always liked the line that Bill Cosby credited to his father:
Look, I brought you INTO this world, and I can take you right out of it, too.

In the 60's the stereotype was that liberals had all the fun and conservatives were trying to make up rules to prevent them from having fun. The roles have long been reversed with liberals taking themselves too seriously and using PC to shut everybody up, and conservatives are the ones who are joyful, optimistic, and funny!

Ain't that the truth?!

>>The second reason can be chalked up to the politically correct environment that has been erected by liberals. In such an environment my skin color serves as a sort of lead shield against any retribution whenever I break a P.C. law. <<
He, heh. Hoists them on their own petards.

And his follow-up line:
"...and I can make another one that looks just like you."

Yeah.. being a chick is a bit frustrating too, and I never pass an op to bag on NOW or other "women's groups" for their "Only Liberal Women are Important" stands.
Long live Ann Coulter, my hero!

It is characters like this who make things miserable for black conservatives who genuinely want to work within the black community as a viable political option.
But here's the best part: I suffer little to no "consequences for my actions" for a couple of notable reasons. Number one, most black people tend to marginalize me because they consider me a traitor to my race so who cares what they think? And, besides, what are they going to do accuse me of being a racist towards black people.
And that is the point. He suffers no "consequences" because his social life is based entirely on white people. He neither has nor wants black friends or lovers and probably has little relationship with his family. His "courage" is that of a social climber who has turned his back on his humble origins.
It is precisely because of "black conservatives" like him who are more interested in putting as much distance as possible between themselves and everything black that conservatism has shown absolutely no growth whatsoever over the past two decades in the black community. Not that people like him would ever care.
To: Tokhtamish
Yeah, there is something rather minstrely about him.

I disagree. He has probably grown from the role of "victim" which most people of lesser means are happy to adopt, to one of "liberated". I applaud him for his courage to go against the cultural grain. What I also hope is that he also has the fortitude to show others his views with the willingness to endure epithets.

I think black conservatives have met liberal blacks more than half-way and we still get called names. Long ago, I "shook the dust from my sandals" and now, I don't go out of my way to engage liberal blacks to point out their ignorance. And you're right, I don't care. I have a great relationship with my family and relatives, btw, but my social life is based entirely on people who share my interests and my points of view (duh!). It's just a coincidence that they are all white.
