You know I am sick and tired of the so called black intelligentsia telling us black folk what to do and how to do it. To top it off these people like Sharpton, Joyner, Tavis Smiley, Jesse Jackson are millionaires and they aren't doing a damn thing for black people except enriching themselves. All that marching and protesting and the conditions in black America have gotten worse and the irony of it all is that it has gotten worse under a half black president. Blacks thrived under Reagan and Bush but the useful idiots in the media will not report that fact. Look at the President's old district when he was in the State and Federal legislature it is ruinous. Now I want to talk about Uncle Tom Joyner (The Fly Jock) Here is a wealthy black American that could not have happened anywhere else in the world. I understand that Joyner has made a lot of money for in his radio syndication. That proves that capitalism works especially for black people. Capitalism not liberalism is the ONLY way out of poverty. It is pathetic that Joyner went to Tuskegee University. He didn't learn a damn thing about Booker T Washington and his philosophy."No greater injury can be done to any youth than to let him feel that because he belongs to this or that race he will be advanced in life regardless of his own merits or efforts." I am a Republican, a black, dyed in the wool Republican, and I never intend to belong to any other party than the party of freedom and progress. Frederick Douglass

“The American people have always been anxious to know what they shall do with us. Gen. Banks was distressed with solicitude as to what he should do with the Negro. Everybody has asked the question, and they learned to ask it early of the abolitionists, “What shall we do with the Negro?” I have had but one answer from the beginning. Do nothing with us! Your doing with us has already played the mischief with us. Do nothing with us! If the apples will not remain on the tree of their own strength, if they are worm eaten at the core, if they are early ripe and disposed to fall, let them fall! I am not for tying or fastening them on the tree in any way, except by nature’s plan, and if they will not stay there, let them fall. And if the Negro cannot stand on his own legs, let him fall also. All I ask is, give him a chance to stand on his own legs! Let him alone! If you see him on his way to school, let him alone, don’t disturb him! If you see him going to the dinner table at a hotel, let him go! If you see him going to the ballot box, let him alone, don’t disturb him! If you see him going into a work-shop, just let him alone, – your interference is doing him a positive injury.” Frederick Douglass I agree with Mr. Washington and Mr. Douglass and Herman is a fine example of the kind of man they were talking about.

Exactly.

For those who subscribe wholeheartedly to this thinking, it really goes for nothing worthwhile except if it's their bread and butter.

If the (so-called) "African-American" birthright is so precious, why are they treating that birthright like Esau did his? Esau sold his birthright to Jacob for a bowl of stew (Genesis 25:29-34).

Is this not what most of us did when they voted for a man who isn't even one of us?

Yeah, the birthright is so precious. But look, I'm hungry so I'll sell it to you for a cheeseburger from Mickey-D's. All of our history and American heritage for a burger.

SPIT!


Where there's a shell, there's a way.

If you can't appreciate the pure beauty of the violin after hearing this, something's wrong with your ears.

Or you can get raw with these strings. Either way, the violin is sweet yet lethal.

Do it!
