Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan said Mexican President Vicente Fox was right to say that Mexican immigrants take jobs "that not even blacks want."
Although Fox was sharply criticized for his remarks by some black leaders, Farrakhan said Sunday that blacks do not want to go to farms and pick fruit because they already "picked enough cotton."

Stupid idiot.
What Farrakhan wants is to put us white devils into slavery of our true masters (him and his kind)
Although Fox was sharply criticized for his remarks by some black leaders, Farrakhan said Sunday that blacks do not want to go to farms and pick fruit because they already "picked enough cotton."
So what the ibecile implies with that sort of statement is:
The same could be said for all construction jobs, all blue collar occupations and white collar jobs. Have they poured enough cement, typed enough letters, built enough houses, swept enough floors, fathered enough children out of wedlock? Hey FarraCon, A person will only get hired on the merits and qualification of their education, skill, quality, honesty, promptness, attitude.
Farrakhan is not smart enough to figure out what was wrong with Fox's statement.
Mothership to Farrakhan, Mothership to Farrakhan...
Calypso Louie (as Rush refers to him) is a racist, a hatemonger, and an economic idiot.
You can't use Mexicans as an excuse not to be a day laborer.
Who's gonna take the African American that other African Americans don't want? Yeah, I'm talking about you, Louie...
Been a long time since I've seen blacks in the field picking cotton.
Mid-'60's I think it was.
You'd have thought they'd be over that by now.
I picked cotten in the 60's and I'm not over it!..........was good honest work...........more than I can say for today's crop of slackers......
Isn't this story nearly a week old?
"Calypso Louie" - my favorite!
You can't use Mexicans as an excuse not to be a day laborer.
If a person is a white day laborer, it wouldn't be wise to stand on the same corner as the Mexican day laborers unless he's looking for trouble. Also, unless a person is able to survive on what he'd earn in one or two days of work per week, which is how much many day laborers work, most Americans wouldn't make enough money working as a day laborer to pay their monthly expenses (unless they're willing to live in a one bedroom apartment with 10-15 other Americans).
My parents grew up in Depression Oklahoma and picked cotton. My dad even shoveled coal off the train everyday to buy a 22 at the hardware store.
Guess What?! My parents are WHITE!!!!!!
Two years ago when a hail storm destroyed nearly every roof and vinyl sided home in our subdivision everyone of the crews was mexican with at least one speaking good english.
One day one crew had one black man on it. Never saw him again.
Calyso Louie wants anarchy inside the USA
figures his boys with the help of their
Oil rich sugar daddies will help them 'overcome'
imo
He is right about one thing...I dont think you could get
city blacks mucking out no milk cow barns...
So were mine!!! coincidence?.......
Well, perhaps not.
Many blacks have become fully integrated into the workplace with good jobs and can refuse the hard low paying work. The positive contributions are vastly different than in past years.
It also seems that there is a significant block of young black males who have chosen not to work at all, especially in jobs requiring arduous labor.
The same is true for other ethnic groups as well. Good jobs go begging simply because young people simply can't summon up the wherewithal to go to work every day.
The Mexican workers probably didn't want a non-Mexican to upset the racial harmony of the construction crew.
