But the saddest thing about him is his followers, who cling to the idea that he is some kind of hero who is going to make the big, bad, EEEEEEEEEVILLLLLLLLLL RICH give up the money they worked to earn, and pay their rent, their gas, their cable bill, and every other thing that the 62% work for at jobs every day. He has failed you in every way, destroyed the chance you have to actually stand on your own feet and provide for your family, and you defend him...based entirely on the color of his skin. In the upcoming month of February, designated Black History Month, you know so little about your own history that you cannot grasp the irony that MLK, Jr. would turn his face in disgust from you...because you are incapable of judging The One's character, having first decided that the REAL thing that counts is the color of his skin. To you, it is impossible that I could completely object to the President on the basis of how he has completely destroyed the greatness of my native land; to you, you Liberal idiots, if I am offended by his lack of character, his weakness, his elitist nature, his complete lack of business experience, his inability to understand high-school level economics, and God help us all, his overpowering VANITY, it cannot POSSIBLY be that I despise HIM, it MUST be that I am a racist. (As is any black person who would agree with me, because he's a racist too!)
The wisest thing I was ever told was this... Q: "How do you know you are winning an argument on facts with a Liberal? A: YOU RACIST!"
Let me help you 50sDad, you are winning the argument when they call you any or all of these:
racist, sextist, homophobic, xenoophobic, fascist, wing-nut, killer-of-baby-harp-seals
That sir, was an OUTSTANDING comment. I'm an unimportant, average white guy who just finished reading both "Up from Slavery" by Booker T. Washington and "Narrative" by Frederick Douglass, and I can say unequivocally that these men would be utterly disgusted, indeed, horrified by the race pandering and the ongoing slavery of dependency. If BTW's ideas and ideals has caught on faster, we'd be celebrating that man's birthday, and MLK would have probably have just quit the clergy at some point and run for office.
melancholy: Thanks for the Ping!
