You know you are right Mike, most of the Democratic constituency want something for nothing because they consider it "gettin' over on the man." When I was in college I was a temporary mailman for one summer and you wouldn't believe around the 3rd of the month how many people would cash the welfare checks and go and buy booze or drugs and damn near snatch the postal bag for their money. The same way on the 15 when the unemployment checks would come.

These are the hard heads that have to be cracked. I don't know if you caught John Mcworter on Bob Costas and the Rapper Damon Dane but the rapper all but called McWorter a sell out and that he has never experienced the so called "ghetto experience" This is psychosis and demented thinking. I don't know about you but Rush is right when he says liberalism is a disease. It is a disease of the mind.

The rappers and other "culture icons" on the left insist that they have a monopoly on "black experience" and "real life®" when it comes to "blackness."

They also insist that we have sold out, simply because we don't parrot the same line. (Thank you, Jesse Jackson [/sarcasm])

Young blacks coming to Conservatism is akin to youngsters discovering the true messages in Blues. When I was young, I thought blues was simply jazzy music that old folks listened to. But after going through some hard times, and coming out the other side, I began to understand where the B.B. Kings and Bobby Blands and Muddy Waters were coming from.

Once you've seen both sides -- rationally and dispassonately -- reality begins to dawn. There is a better way.

The poverty pimps seek to use the bully pulpit of emotion and racial division to continue to keep the wool over everyone's eyes.

To find an example, you need only look back a week to my appearance on MSNBC. Note how the more emotional the other guest got, the more irrational he sounded. He began to go all over the map, and began to try to pull other points into play. I stayed calm and stayed on target, and let my message speak for me.

If we can continue to stay away from that level of irrational emotion, and stay on target, we'll get there. It'll take time, but we'll get there. If we fall into the same kind of emotional rabble-rousing, we'll lose our message among the noise.
