Last month, an intriguing little congressional pow-wow was clandestinely held – no press invited – in the Northern Virginia town of Leesburg. It was a 3-day conference, and attendance appears to have been restricted by ethnicity and race.
But this was not a gathering of the Leesburg chapter of the White Citizens Council. It was a conclave of three congressional caucuses – the Black Caucus, the Hispanic Caucus and the Asia Pacific Caucus. And the invitation list appears to have been made up with one provision in mind: No whites need apply.
As described in a front-page story in the New York Times, the goal of this "tri-caucus retreat" was to "create an atmosphere of understanding among groups that have often felt pitted against one another for resources and recognition." But as the caucuses claim to represent only Americans of African, Asian and Hispanic descent, just what were they uniting for, and who are they uniting against?
Now since the Democratic Party has been fairly described as a "collection of warring tribes that has come together in anticipation of common plunder," and all attendees were Democrats, there was lots of talk of a joint looting expedition at the expense of taxpayers.
Attendees pointed to their common front on the $175 billion farm bill, where the Black Caucus demanded an expansion of the food-stamp program, and the Hispanic Caucus demanded restoration of food stamps for immigrants. Apparently, they had jointly triumphed.
Another "shining example" of collusion was in Texas, where Hispanics and blacks joined forces to nominate Tony Sanchez for governor and African-American Ron Kirk for Senate. Capturing the seats lately held by George W. Bush and Phil Gramm for a Hispanic and an African American would apparently be real progress.
But all this raises a question: If it is acceptable for blacks and Hispanics to collude to seize power from white Americans, why is it a violation of civil rights for whites to collude to increase their representation in legislatures at the expense of minorities? If the latter is racism, why is the former progress?
The closer one reads Lynette Clemetson's Times' story, the more it appears this Leesburg summit was not about the politics of aiding the poor and powerless against the rich and powerful. This secret summit was about how folks of Third World ancestry can join forces to seize power and resources from white America.
For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction is a law of Newtonian physics. The same is true in politics. If it has become acceptable for caucuses that represent people of color to join against America's white majority, look for white folks to begin to identify themselves by race, rather than party or philosophy, to preserve what they have. Has the New York Times considered the consequences of what its reporter seems to be celebrating?
All, however, was not harmony at Leesburg. Seems that last January, Latino businessman broke away from the National Minority Auto Dealers Association to form the National Hispanic Auto Dealers Association. Reported without comment. Can one imagine the Times' reaction to a Euro-American Auto Dealers Association?
As Clemetson's story runs on, the Spirit of Leesburg began to reveal itself in the entertainment: "Audience members sat rapt as Sarah Jones, a socially conscious writer and actress ... slipped in and out of accents to portray characters from a Mexican-American labor organizer to a new immigrant from Haiti who scolded listeners: 'God bless America, but not because of you. Remember, your ancestors came here, too.'"
Would it be impertinent to ask who "you" is? And if this us-vs.-them racial rhetoric is acceptable at a Third World caucus-coalition, why is it a hate crime for white folks? Nor was this the end of the fun. Writes Clemetson: "Beau Sea, a Chinese-American slam poet from Oklahoma, raised eyebrows with his confrontational number, 'The Asians are coming'":

Middle America: Hello! From what went down at Leesburg, it is clear the old idea of integration and assimilation, of one nation and one people, is giving way among elites of color to a racial and ethnic spoils system. And as "Anglos" are a minority in California already and soon to be a minority in Texas, perhaps they should start asking what kind of country it is going to be when they are outnumbered nationwide by mid-century.
Well ok, you seem to know him better than me.

I wouldn't pay too much attention to AmericaUnited. He's nothing more than a racist who believes that lying is inherent within the "Arab" culture.

Racist my stinking foot! He is dead on the money. I've known many people who have lived over in the Middle East in Egypt, Saidi Arabia, etc., and they all confirm this.

If you don't "eat my body, and drink my blood, you have no life in you." Soon the only people living on God's green earth will be people who have been born from above, and their cursed lineage removed. Instead of the corrupt blood of Adam and Eve flowing through their veins, the eternal incorruptible blood of Jesus will be flowing through their veins, and all this race talk will be obsolete. All nationalities and races will be no more, as they will all be direct decendants of Christ, in His eternal image and likeness.
Sounds like someone has been getting high on the ol' Jesus Juice.
Interesting; further proof that this One World, multicultural insanity has deep religous roots. That's why its so hard to fight: whether consciously religious or irreligious, the One Worlder fervently believes that any oppostion to his vision of "humanity" is not only wrong, but evil. The unbelievers will be thrown into the lake of fire - quite literally, if certain people get their way.
Cowardice and hiding behind women & children is inherent within their "culture" too.
It is, and I think 98% of all Freepers who have lived over in the Middle East will agree. Do you really want to having a pissing contest on this and see who wins?
Of course since you made such an ass out of yourself here on FR, screaming from the rooftops about the Jenin massacre which never happened, you of all people need extra tutoring on this topic. Maybe you're just too stupid to not know when you’re being lied to.
Decrying Buchanan's "racism" on one thread while pracitising it (racism) on another is the height of hypocrisy.
"Oh my God! Someone said something you don't like against Israel? Well jezzz, He must be as crazy and jew hating as these religious fanatics and mad bombers. He must be a nazi and a member of the KKK. Oh my, Buchanan sucks, he said something biased against Israel. That no good baby killing nazi!"
Play straight, next time I will rearrange your words and post them as your quote, and you wont like it. Just try me.
Poof!
You're a racist!
Houston is a perfect example of this...whites are already less than 50% of the metropolitan area. And yet the City of Houston, with the black mayor leading the way, still gives priority contracts to non-white contractors!
