Your last point first,motoman-Obama’s abortion position is the real deal breaker with me.Its an obscentity way beyond the whole Wright controversy,which,unlike most folks on this board,doesn’t upset me THAT much.I guess because I have been around tons of angry black men like Wright all my life and find a real irony there in that many of these roaring lions are like pussycats once you get to know them.Believe me,I look like the prototypical”honkie”and if they were gonna hate”Whitey”they would hate me to the fullest!
I think Obama’s candidacy has completely mellowed out black anger FOR NOW.Man,you should see where I work-the black employees are on a cloud nine mode.Very upbeat and optimistic.I think even if he loses in the Fall,blacks for the most part will accept that reality.
Yet if he gets derailed on this birth certificate issue,I think all bets are off!
River - In Wright’s case, perception is a much more powerful reality. Sorry, but the rest of our country that witnessed his racist, America hating rants, could ever come to the conclusion that he is just a big ‘ol “pussycat”. In his big old teddy bear kind of a way, he and the likes of him will destroy this country with a big friendly smile on his face if that’s the case.
Lastly - if your black coworkers’ intent is to intimidate others by threat of riot if their man loses, whether to lying about who he really is or otherwise - THEN LET THE RIOTS BEGIN!!! B R I N G I T ON!! Buck up and don’t be initimadated - that’s how tyrannical, godless, communist regimes learned how to control and minipulate the masses. This is STILL AMERICA!!
Believe me,I look like the prototypical”honkie”

That can’t possibly be because I am the prototypical honkie!
