Love Mr. Sowell. Great article as always and I didn’t know this: “Years ago, someone said that, according to the laws of aerodynamics, bumblebees cannot fly.”. Now I’ve got to go find out about this. :p

These are the same people who claim that illegal immigrants aren’t breaking our laws.

Another piece of brilliance by Sowell...

Why doesn’t the main stream media consult HIM when they need “the black perspective” instead of lunatics like Sharpton and Jackson

Man, what a bummer. Now what in the heck am I supposed to do with my 9 foot tall inflatable Al Sharpton yard doll with the faux chinchilla cape and life-like skunk fur wig?

Hal King and I were in USAF pilot training class 70-02. Hal’s dad - Lt. Col Haldane King - was a Tuskegee Airman. Col King passed away this summer at age 91. RIP

Some people try to explain why Asians, and Asian-Americans, succeed so well in education and in the economy by some special characteristics that they have. That may be true, but their success may also be due to what they do not have — namely "leaders" who tell them that the deck is so stacked against them that they cannot rise, or at least not without depending on "leaders." Such "leaders" are like the people who said that the laws of aerodynamics showed that the bumblebee cannot fly.

Teaching people they're victims is great for political control - but very bad for the person who buys the line... Sowell has nailed it one more time.

‘”leaders” who tell them that the deck is so stacked against them that they cannot rise’

My fear is that oriental people will one day gain that. They are apparently starting to buy the commie line that the white US hates them and is bigoted against them, hence you must vote Dem. And someday, they may be wallowing in victimhood also if they go down the Dem path.

Don’t know all the stats, but there was a solid majority for Uhbama last out. I hope that was just a blip.
