"There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs. There is a certain class of race-problem solvers who don't want the patient to get well."
-Booker T. Washington
Wow. I didn’t know Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson were a couple of race-hustling phonies! Boy, that Tucker Carlson, he sure is fast on the uptake alright!(sar.)
Is this the “Reverend” Jesse Jackson they are referring to?:
“Recently, Stanford, a former Jackson aide, went to court to formalize the $4,000-a-month child support payments the former presidential candidate was already paying her. Jackson then asked her to sign a confidentiality agreement, she says. She refused.”
Keen grasp of the obvious, Tuckie.
‘Community leaders, Vimes thought. There’d been a lot of talk about community leaders lately, as in “community leaders appealed for calm,” a phrase the *Times* used so often that the printers probably left it set in type. Vimes wondered who they were and how they were appointed, and, sometimes, if “appealing for calm” meant winking and saying “do not use those shiny new battle-axes in that cupboard over there...no, not that one, the other one.”’

... After the arrest,and as the trial date neared the following year,NBC would allow Al Sharpton to turn his primetime MSNBC show into a platform dedicated to convicting Zimmerman.
CNN would continue to refer to Zimmerman as a "white Hispanic" and broadcast all of Zimmerman's personal information,including his social security number, address,and telephone number.
I’m still pissed at Tucker for jumping on the hate Palin bandwagon.
I need a better link
Telling it just like it is.
No wonder Shamu Green called him a “white guy with a bowtie”.....
Years ago in the south - during the Jim Crow era - blacks were unable to elect their own Representatives. So they had unofficial 'community leaders'...
It was necessary at the time.
After the vote had been secured for blacks in the 60's Jackson types didn't want to give up their self appointed positions and the power and money that went with those positions.
The MSM didn't want 'community leader' to go away either because they could get much better quotes from black radicals than from people elected by black communities... Democrats and Republicans tacitly agreed to create 'safe' districts for blacks so political compromise between blacks and whites was thwarted. A perfect storm for racial hatred, violence and misunderstandings...
Don’t be distracted. The Federal government is going to use sleight of hand, to keep our attention focussed on riots and demonstrations like the ones in Oakland, San Francisco and elsewhere, to try and give Boehner and Cantor breathing room to force amnesty for illegal aliens down our throats. DON’T LET THEM DO THIS!!
