Après le déluge, moi!

Thanks for adding this information. I have not been impressed with what I've seen of Juan Williams on TV, but obviously that's not all there is to him.
As always, Steyn RULES!!!
Bill Cosby deserves Honorable Mention as a leader.
Yes, but, let's not forget that many black Americans are living good and healthy lives. They are successes, on their own, like Juan, and take good care of their families.
There is still a VERY long way to go for places like New Orleans and Detroit, and Washington, DC. Cities such like these are the epicenters of black delusion and waste. They all have exceedingly high unemployment rates, out of wedlock births and crime. Instead of being showcases of governmental blessings, they are merely polluted ponds of hate, hopelessness and death.
I have thought about this many times and I just don't know how one restores hope to an angry, poor kids who hate white people(and Vietnamese, and Koreans) or anyone else who appears successful.
Faith in God would be a good place to start. But how to get that ball rolling?
...indeed....! and I believe it was Margaret Sanger many, many years ago who was a staunch advocate for the kind of
horrors that beset the black population today, specifically,
her belief in sterilizations and abortions for those
whom she felt were unfit, etc. as far as the remainder
of your note, I know I have the words wrong, but wasn't
something written a long time ago about consistency being
the hobgoblin of simple minds or something....??
anayway, good post. This country is going down the tubes
fast, if you ask me......!
"Ray Nagin, the city's Mayor Culpa..."
BRILLIANT! Steyn must never go away. ROTFL
ping
OF course not. Those guys aren't about to let some thug move in on their territory.
And "homey, gimme some skin, fo-shizzle."
They say that in India?
It is racism that keeps them from succeeding. Trouble is they're the ones that are the worst racists. Their hatred for everything they perceive as being white keeps them from seeing the beam they thrust in their own eye while they complain about the mote in their brother's eye.
Thanks for the ping.
Marking for later read.
I don't understand your post. Followed the messages back to # 1 and no mention of India, which was not what I was saying. Do they say "chit" in India?
Yes, the word "chit" originated with the British in India. It means a small slip of paper used as a note or receipt:
"Give me the chit from the cleaners, and I'll pick up your coat on the way home from church."
"Take this chit over to Debbie, and bring it back with an answer."
Mark Steyn gave a list of other words with the same origin.
Ping
Big Mama Thornton, Big Joe Turner, Hank Ballard, Nat King Cole, Ray Charles, The Coasters, The Drifters, Clyde MacPhatter, Jackie Wilson, the Temptations, Stevie Wonder, Smokey, The Supremes, the Stylistics, Commodore, Rightous Brothers, Earth, Wind, & Fire, Pointer Sisters, Parliment, Kool & The Gang -
the list could go on and on. Today - it is just noise promoting evil and death.
"Faith in God would be a good place to start. But how to get that ball rolling?"
They already have Revs Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson. Religion isn't lacking.
Good to see the proper reference to LBJ. Dems can spin all they want about Johnson's compassion re: the Great Society, but above all else LBJ was one shewd SOB. In his early career, it was common practice to get voters to the polls with the promise of $5 or a pint of whiskey. The Great Society was the same thing, writ large. LBJ was a master at giving with one hand while taking with the other, and his social programs would enslave generations to a new master...liberal democrats. And he knew it. Pure evil.
