<p><em><span style="color: #ff9900;"><strong>&#8220;</strong></span><span style="color: #ff9900;"><strong>The only people who don’t want to disclose the truth are people with something to hide</strong></span></em><span style="color: #ff9900;">”</span> ~ <span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>Barack Hussein Obama 8/21/10</strong></span></p>
<p>Trump is on another interesting Obama topic…that of Obama’s mis-education. Trump rightfully questions how a terrible student at Occidental College&#8211;the equivalent of Whats-A-Matta-U&#8211;gets into Columbia.  And if that’s not impressive enough, how does a terrible student at Columbia then gets into Harvard?</p>
<p>Obama is heralded as a mental giant because he was president of Harvard <em>Law Review</em>, though he was the first such appointee selected based on “popularity.” The orchestration of Obama’s persona was propelled, but not because of his grades. When you consider the manipulation involved to gain such a coveted position, it was a real coup, particularly because Obama’s grades sucked. Like the presidency of Harvard <em>Law Review</em>, Obama now has gained two presidencies based simply on being black.</p>
<p>Why am I so sure that Obama’s grades sucked? Because, upon graduation from Harvard with a <em>Juris Doctorate</em> degree and being president of <em>Law Review</em>, Obama received a whopping ONE job offer.</p>
<p>That’s right, Obama is the <em>Bizarro World</em> version of Tom Cruise in <em>The Firm.</em> Both men were pursued by one criminal organization and accepted the job.  Cruise played a spectacular graduate of Harvard, who was pursued by many and accepted the job at the mob law firm of Bendini, Lambert &amp; Locke.  Obama played the terrible law student from Harvard who got ONE job offer from the firm of Davis, Miner, Barnhill &amp; Galland at the behest of convicted criminal Tony Rezko, one of the firm’s clients.</p>
<p>Forget what you may think of Obama, and ask yourself this very simple question:</p>
<blockquote><p>“<em>How many job offers would you expect a Magna Cum Laude graduate of Harvard Law and president of Harvard Law Review to get?</em>”</p></blockquote>
<p>When you consider all the partying with radicals that Obama did, you understand that Obama was forced to find a ruse. He needed to appear smart, even though he’s so dumb, he steals free samples.  Obama used the appearance of being a “black sophisticate” to create his persona. This wouldn’t work if Obama played it straight, as in not hanging out with radicals or &#8220;acting white.&#8221;  He had to act different, edgy, as in a juvenile delinquent. <em>Ivy League material?</em></p>
<p>During his 2008 campaign, as it became clear that he would likely win the presidency, Obama warned America that we should not believe the hype. He said essentially that people are putting too much stock in his persona.  He was level-setting with his most rabid supporters. They didn&#8217;t want to hear it; they had their empty suit.</p>
<p>So while others continue to be interested in the constitutionality of Obama’s presidency, the Left is more fearful of something else. The Left is now deathly afraid that America may find out that Obama is so stupid, he thinks fruit punch is a gay boxer.</p>
<p>Can you imagine the scandal when the Left has to admit publicly that the guy they have touted as the smartest guy in the world had WORSE grades than Bush?!! This is potentially huge, much more so than the birth certificate issue. The Left is fine with a foreign communist dictator running the country, as long as he “shows well.”  But to find out that the man they went “all in” on is stupid, well I predict they turn on him like a German eating a wiener schnitzel.</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2982" title="Obama kissing feet" src="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/Obama-kissing-feet-300x212.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="212" /></p>
<p>Asking for a birth certificate might be considered taboo by the Left, but asking to see grades?  Grades should be no big deal, particularly when their guy is undoubtedly the smartest president ever? Remember all the talk during the campaign about America finally getting a “smart” president, after eight years of Bush. The Left spoke of Obama’s brilliance, as if he put the shine in shinola. We were told that Obama graduated Magna Cum Laude from Harvard, the pinnacle of Ivy League credentials.  I bet when the truth comes out, we will find that somebody made a big donation to Harvard on Obama’s behalf, and that his grades were bought.  I don’t think Obama could pass a Correspondence Test, if he didn’t have Ayers nearby to help him fill in the circles.</p>
<p>The truth about Obama’s lack of great intellect would erode the bedrock of the Liberals’ foundation. To find out that their smart guy is dumber than ‘Larry the Cable Guy’ would be devastating. The Left would have to rethink their support of all Obama’s “revolutionary” policies. What will people think about all those “great” Harvard ideas then?</p>
<p>The Left has been duped by a lunatic of their own choosing. Which is it lunatic Left? You either put a liar in the White House who is a foreign student and thus ineligible to be president, or you elected a guy too stupid to choose his own socks.</p>
<p>I’ve been giving Harvard a difficult time, as I have openly questioned the worth of a Harvard degree, given the actions of Harvard’s most famous black student.  But I could forgive them if they got $50M to pass Obama along.  Universities pass black athletes who don’t have the academic credential, as long as the athlete helps further the university’s own cause.  Why not do the same for a radical communist, who had the potential to change America as we know it.</p>
<p>It’s taken $2M for Obama and his helpers (Supreme Court InJustice Kagan, Harvard, Columbia, Occidental, Hawaii, and many others) to keep his records secret, so I’m curious how much money Donald Trump will spend to crack open the shell of controversy?  But that’s where my interest ends. Because I already know that whatever shell Trump is able to crack, an unsavory nut was once inside.</p>
<p>That’s my rant!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/utopia.png" class="img zoom rounded imgHover"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-2941" style="margin: 10px;" title="utopia" src="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/utopia-300x230.png" alt="" width="300" height="230" /></a></p>
<p>Rich white Liberals may have finally accomplished what they wanted all along, which is white societies with enough blacks to serve rich white Liberals. When Liberals finally ran Conservatives out of big cities, things went downhill fast.  This sent whites Liberals running to create their own Suburbutopian enclaves to witness the carnage of the inner cities from relative safety.</p>
<p>Today, &#8220;black flight&#8221; is occurring just as fast. Cities like Detroit and Oakland have seen their black population drop as much as 9%, and many others are experiencing much the same. Though I&#8217;m still researching where black people are going in their exodus from these urban population centers, one thing is for sure:  It&#8217;s <em>not </em>Marin County, CA.</p>
<p>According to the Department of Housing and Urban Development, Marin County, California, which includes several cities in the Bay Area is <a href="http://www.baycitizen.org/housing/story/hud-scolds-marin-fair-housing-record/">&#8216;too white</a>.’  The affluent county contains 7 of the 10 &#8216;whitest&#8217; cities, (greater than 90% white), according to the 2010 census.  Thus in arguably the most Liberal-ladened state, Marin County, CA has failed to comply with the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and other anti-discrimination statutes.  Their “chickens have come home to roost.”</p>
<p>Californicators have literally legislated black people out of their towns.  Environmental and tax policies have chased away businesses and jobs, so only wealthiest have survived the onslaught. This has forced most blacks from their homes and communities as a whole.</p>
<p>In anticipation of Attorney General Holder’s response to protect “his people,” I immediately updated my resume on Monster.com. White cities looking for blacks now know where to find me. My availability is “immediate.”  As it happens, St. Louis has an abundance of black folks, so there is no deal to be had here.  Nevertheless there is a city out there flirting precariously close to that discrimination line, and thus in need of my services.  There is finally money to be made on racist policies by the common man, as cities will be willing to pay big bucks to meet their quotas for civil rights.</p>
<p>In the spirit of Liberalism, I plan to unionize my black brethren, so I can broker the best deal for lots of black people.  I can’t have black people selling themselves on the cheap, lest my market price suffer as well.  Think of it as the collective bargaining, Affirmative Action style.</p>
<p>I will arrive in my new white town on the private jet of one of those fat cat rich Liberals. The limo will pick me up at the private airstrip to take me to the parade I will have demanded in my honor.   After the parade, I would instruct my chauffeur (white guy, of course)</p>
<blockquote><p>“<em>To my new residence…it’s next door to the Mayor!</em>”</p></blockquote>
<p>Out of the limo, to the front door to see my new doormat that reads, “I’m black and you betta reckanize!”</p>
<p>I hope the mayor likes rap music and yard work.</p>
<blockquote><p>“<em>Yo, Mayor. I need my yard mowed. And don’t forget to ‘pooper scoop!&#8217;</em>”</p></blockquote>
<p>I would clip the articles of other towns advertising for black people and put them in the mayor’s mailbox and those of other prominent rich white citizens of the town, and make them throw me “sickle cell” fundraisers, while I blame the disease that I don’t have on them.</p>
<p>I’d have all black people change our names to Afro-centric names, just to mess with our white folks. And when they said things like “you people,” we’d cop attitudes, pull out our cell phones like we were calling the authorities or a moving company. We would ‘mean-mug’ our white people and dare them to not look away.</p>
<p>My sister would run a petition drive to demand that all literature be translated into Ebonics, and that Ebonics become our town language. My brother would videotape her solicitations, in case anybody wouldn’t sign it.  My uncle would point two fingers at those people, then at his eyes:  <em>We are watching you!</em></p>
<p>After my Ebonics bill passes, anybody caught speaking &#8220;white English&#8221; would be subject to a fine. I would demand that the translation services go to my uncle; not the industrious one, but the lazy one.  He would subcontract the work to a team of “wiggas,” and we would just laugh at the stupidity of our white folks…both sets!</p>
<p>We would complain constantly about the lack of blacks in city government, education, the police department, the fire department, but demand that they can only employ local blacks, and forbid illegal immigrants from even applying.  I’d get another family member hired to monitor and maintain quotas with the help of Planned Parenthood. After all, we must keep the number of blacks down right?</p>
<p>When white Liberals Californicators leave to establish new enclaves, I would repeat the process all over again. Welcome to Utopia.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/gay-military.jpg" class="img zoom rounded imgHover"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-2699" style="margin: 10px;" title="gay military" src="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/gay-military-300x210.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="210" /></a>Hollywood can discriminate based on anything. “Sorry, but you’re too black.” “You’re good, but you’re too fat.” “I like you, but you aren’t pretty enough.” Hollywood can pick whomever they want, for whatever reason, and with no repercussions. Discrimination for the sake of art.</p>
<p>So the military, the people who protect the nation can’t choose who they want,  because gays got their win with the repeal of Don’t Ask Don’t Tell.  Now they can be <em>openly</em> gay. What exactly is openly gay anyway?</p>
<p>Gays are individuals, not defined by their sexuality—at least not the smart ones. So there is a wide spectrum to being gay.</p>
<p>When I think of being openly gay, I think about the black folks who say to me that I don’t “act black.” Sure I do. I am <em>openly</em> black, but being black doesn’t define me. Being American does, as does being human.</p>
<p>I believe that most gays in the military could care less about exposing their sexuality and are content to just do their jobs. I say this, because I don’t walk through life being <em>black</em>.</p>
<p>Unlike Hollywood where being gay or bi considered <em>a la mode</em>, the job of the military is to create military ‘personnel,’ regardless of sexual orientation, ethnicity, creed, or whatever. Black soldiers are not walking around saying, “I’m a black Colonel.” All the military cares about is the “Colonel” part; truth be told, the military is more concerned with one’s <em>competence</em>. The same would be true of “gays,” as most military men and women don’t care what type of sex<a href="file:///C:/Users/The%20Black%20Sphere/Contacts/Desktop/TBS%20-%20Blog%20%5bAT%5d%20The%20Art%20of%20War%20&amp;amp;%20DADT.docx#_ftn1">[1]</a> another soldier is having, as long as that sex doesn’t infringe on them.</p>
<p>I suspect that the military has a much better “gaydar” than gays think. Their peers either know who is gay in the military or they have their suspicions. There are high ranking gays in the military now. The woman who filed the suit to repeal DADT is a retired Colonel, I believe. I’d be willing to bet you that most of the people who promoted her already knew she had her penchant for the ladies.<a href="file:///C:/Users/The%20Black%20Sphere/Contacts/Desktop/TBS%20-%20Blog%20%5bAT%5d%20The%20Art%20of%20War%20&amp;amp;%20DADT.docx#_ftn2">[2]</a> Her gayness apparently didn’t negatively affect her career. It would appear that the only people who were concerned about her gayness was her.</p>
<p>So what Liberals have done for the military is what they have been doing to all of America for decades; infecting the military with cancer. Soon promotions will be measured by how many “gays” we have at a certain rank, or “I didn’t get this promotion or billet, because I am gay.” Gays will require their own facilities, and they could end up where black people were in the ‘40’s…<em>segregated</em>.</p>
<p>What’s interesting about DADT when compared to blacks being in the military is that blacks had to endure a very different form of discrimination. Discrimination against blacks was called “Don’t Ask, We Already Know.”</p>
<p>Blacks have been discriminated in the military for decades. Be it military or civilian, with rare exception,<a href="file:///C:/Users/The%20Black%20Sphere/Contacts/Desktop/TBS%20-%20Blog%20%5bAT%5d%20The%20Art%20of%20War%20&amp;amp;%20DADT.docx#_ftn3">[3]</a> people already knew who the blacks were in the military. Yet somehow in what Liberals believe is the most racist country in the world with the most heinous military, blacks managed to get a black Commander in Chief<a href="file:///C:/Users/The%20Black%20Sphere/Contacts/Desktop/TBS%20-%20Blog%20%5bAT%5d%20The%20Art%20of%20War%20&amp;amp;%20DADT.docx#_ftn4">[4]</a>, and a black Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.<a href="file:///C:/Users/The%20Black%20Sphere/Contacts/Desktop/TBS%20-%20Blog%20%5bAT%5d%20The%20Art%20of%20War%20&amp;amp;%20DADT.docx#_ftn5">[5]</a></p>
<p>It has been argued to me that DADT is needed so that gay military personnel could invite their significant others to events. Not true. Gay military personnel could have appeared with their same sex partners, and under DADT nobody could question either of them. It was just two buddies hanging out, or “girl’s night out” as far as DADT regulations were concerned.</p>
<p>But don’t expect bases to look like the Mission District of San Francisco, because as for showing affection towards one’s “partner,” PDA<a href="file:///C:/Users/The%20Black%20Sphere/Contacts/Desktop/TBS%20-%20Blog%20%5bAT%5d%20The%20Art%20of%20War%20&amp;amp;%20DADT.docx#_ftn6">[6]</a> is forbidden by everybody, gay or straight. No fraternization or ‘sororitization’ either.</p>
<p>I’m not sure what this new development will do to morale within the military. I do believe that there will be an “us versus them” mentality amongst homosexuals, which cannot be good for anybody, especially the military.</p>
<p>The military who is supposed to protect us now has become a victim of the Liberal agenda. Go ahead; declare your <em>open</em> gayness, whatever that means. But don’t expect the military to act according to the gay agenda like the civilian world.</p>
<p>Legislating based on sexual proclivity is wrong. Few jobs require knowledge of one’s sexual nature, and most that do are located near Hollywood. Repeal of DADT is just the Liberals’ way of attacking an institution, an institution that was not discriminating against gays.  The military is like Hollywood, in that they have a set of guidelines they felt made them more effective.</p>
<p>Turnabout is fair play, however. I say we attack their institutions—the media, Hollywood, Academia. Let’s sue them for discriminating against Conservatives, straights, Republicans…those are creeds!</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s show Liberals that we really understand the art of war.</p>
<p>That’s my rant!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><em><a href="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/Colbert-Report.jpg" class="img zoom rounded imgHover"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-2499" style="margin: 10px;" title="Colbert Report" src="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/Colbert-Report.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a>The REAL Colbert Report</em>, by Jason Ivey</strong></p>
<p>I&#8217;ve given some thought to the now infamous Stephen Colbert &#8220;testimony,&#8221; which dovetails nicely with the recent attacks by Obama, Kerry, Biden, and other prominent Dems against those pesky, ignorant voters. I&#8217;m no fan of Colbert, Jon Stewart, Letterman, or any of the other comedian-pundits that appeal to a center-left audience, and it&#8217;s for reasons that go beyond politics. Jonah Goldberg has a<a href="http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/248140/colbert-ironic-rot-jonah-goldbe"> piece today</a> that I think nicely pinpoints the distaste that this ilk leaves with me.</p>
<p>The basis of this type of humor is irony. I know irony quite well, and will admit that it&#8217;s played a role in my own sense of humor over the years, although it probably peaked with me sometime in the early &#8217;90&#8242;s when I was still in high school. Now I just resort to straight-up sarcasm.</p>
<p>What I&#8217;m saying is that irony is old hat, old news, post-post-whatever just for the sake of it, and it grew tiresome for me about 15 years ago. Those who are, in my opinion, truly funny have moved (or <em>progressed</em>) beyond a childish desire to lampoon everything that most decent people take seriously. There&#8217;s a juvenile, puerile streak to this humor, something perhaps started by Mad Magazine back in the day, that permeated the brains of today&#8217;s self-important comedians. In my view, this humor has gone so far in the direction of not taking anything at all seriously that it has lost its basis in that one piece of vital criteria for any humor that&#8217;s funny: Truth.</p>
<p>Of course, followers and admirers of Colbert, Stewart, and even Letterman believe that it is they who know the real truth, and it&#8217;s that arrogant BELIEF that allows them wade into snarky characterizations of those they believe still represent &#8220;the squares&#8221; or &#8220;the establishment.&#8221; The problem is that it is THEY who are now The Establishment, those keepers of (to paraphrase Seinfeld) nothingness.</p>
<p>Their caricature of Dick Cheney long ago became a caricature of a caricature, devoid of any basis in truth or reality. Pick your right-wing villain and the portrayal is through smugness directed at a figment of their own imaginations, not a real flesh-and-blood human being. They are villains as they themselves imagine, not as a parody of a real life form. In their desire to tear down what they have historically viewed as The Establishment, which basically represents those members of the population with standards, they have moved society into a world of relativism so devoid of meaning that irony simply now exists for irony&#8217;s sake.</p>
<p>Colbert, in the end, was the perfect representative of this Democratic Congress. Far from a stunt that backfired, he better represents their views of the political opposition and of the electorate at large perhaps more articulately than elected Democrats do, with the possible exception of Al Franken. His &#8220;humor&#8221; was racial, which of course is fine if you&#8217;re parodying supposed racists.</p>
<p>The problem is that he merely exposed the race-obsessed views of the Left, views that have no basis in truth in the conservative movement that he parodies. Secondly, his &#8220;testimony&#8221; was a complete waste of time and resources, something elected Democrats have also excelled at. And he was certainly not the biggest clown and buffoon in the room, when you consider clowns like Pelosi, Reid, Barney Frank, the list goes on; and these are the people who decide what to do with OUR money. Thirdly, he perfectly demonstrated the contempt and disdain that liberals have for ordinary Americans, whom the Left views as ignorant, bigoted racists. Again, I say this is projection.</p>
<p>Obama&#8217;s comments in Rolling Stone and Kerry&#8217;s comments about &#8220;people who don&#8217;t pay attention&#8221; perfectly sum up the views of this Elite, and in their world of nothingness and relativism that they themselves have created, they have made themselves completely oblivious to the truth that surrounds them and will ultimately do them in. Real humor, like real art, must have a basis in truth. Relativism is the antithesis of truth. And so is irony for irony&#8217;s sake.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/everyone-can-be-a-racist-these-days-our-gang.jpg" class="img zoom rounded imgHover"><img class="alignleft" style="margin: 10px;" title="everyone-can-be-a-racist-these-days-our-gang" src="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/everyone-can-be-a-racist-these-days-our-gang-300x183.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="183" /></a></p>
<p>Just when you thought racism was just <em>political</em>, Omar Thornton goes on a killing spree at his former job, saying that he had been “racially harassed,” making racism a <em>reality</em>.  Only in reality, it was Omar who was the <em>proven</em> racist.</p>
<p>Thornton’s harassment? He was fired for stealing from his union job!</p>
<p>In the real world, when a person steals from the job, they get fired, and potentially go to jail. But when you are in a union and part of the post-racial world of Obama, you get some Crackers with your whine.</p>
<p>Before “taking matters into his own hands,” as Thornton said in his statement, do you think that he might have reported these so-called racial issues, filing grievances with the union?  Pulling the race card with unions still gets blacks promoted, right?</p>
<p>But Thornton didn’t file any complaints with the union. So we will never know what harassment actually occurred, if any. My bet is Thornton considered the white worker who reported that Thornton was stealing as being racist!</p>
<p>Is anybody asking if Thornton followed the advice of the New Black Panther Party’s advice to kill Crackers?  Perhaps Thornton was bucking for the New Black Panther Party’s <em>Image Award</em>.</p>
<p>I doubt that Attorney General Eric Holder will follow the bread crumbs on this one and indict the NBPP for hate speech. Nor will he make them complicit for this obvious hate crime.  I bet Holder won’t even consider this a hate crime. No reason to stir that pot.  Since Thornton took his own life, he can sweep this one under the bus.</p>
<p>As crazy as this sounds, many in the Liberal black community justify Thornton’s behavior.</p>
<blockquote><p>“I can relate.  It’s like that time when my supervisor axed me to show up to work on time, and I threatened to kill him. My union steward called me in and axed me not to say that no more, then we laughed at my Cracker supervisor!”</p></blockquote>
<p>Like Obama in the Professor Gates, these blacks don’t need to hear the whole story. They will claim “institutional racism!” Ironically, institutional racism was institutionalized by Democrats!  Payback for the Democrat policy of institutional racism is for rules not to apply to blacks. <em>You keeping up</em>?!</p>
<p>I’m actually surprise His O-ness hasn’t weighed in on this, indicting the whites who “created this mess.” I can hear his press conference now:</p>
<blockquote><p>“Omar Thornton’s bright light has been extinguished at the hands of those who prevented him from thriving at his workplace. A man simply trying to get what was coming to him…a man who embraced hope and change!”</p></blockquote>
<p>With Obama’s hope and change strategy, you should start to look at crazy ideas like <em>racism</em> being covered under our insurance plans.  It will be sneaked in with HR Benefits plans that explain, “If you believe you are being racially harassed, you may qualify for counseling…if you’re black.”</p>
<p>After counseling you can then file for Workmen’s Compensation, and there you go, “40 acres and a Mule.”</p>
<p><a href="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/progressive-racism.jpg" class="img zoom rounded imgHover"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2349" title="progressive racism" src="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/progressive-racism-300x251.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="251" /></a>Here’s the wrap:</p>
<p>Over the past few decades, many Democrat blacks have been taught to hate whites.  It is practically impossible for black Democrats NOT to make something racial. Black Democrats like the idea of keeping whites off kilter, because that’s they have learned that’s how you get handouts! <em>Act out and expect a reward.</em></p>
<p>The tragedy is that in a country with the opportunity that America offers without prejudice, Thornton decided to <em>steal</em> his. I grieve for those families who must now confront the <em>real</em> specter of racism, where a black man kills white people for not allowing him to steal from his job. These folks will likely battle within themselves to not dislike blacks, simply because ONE black man decided to pull the race card in the ultimate way.</p>
<p>This new form of “terrorism by race card” may have found a new level, and you can expect Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and that ilk to be meeting to figure out how to capitalize on this. They will propose programs to prevent blacks from going postal, when they are fired for stealing, or other forms of what was formerly known as insubordination.</p>
<p>I suspect the new Jackson-Sharpton solution will be as simple as, “Just let black folks steal on the job, this sh*t won’t happen!”</p>
<p>Where is the NAACP in expressing outrage to such an event, obviously motivated by race? Why won’t black organizations speak out about this and other obvious hate crimes? They are too busy creating fake racism claims, I suspect.</p>
<p>Whether it’s New Black Panthers intimidating threatening whites or Omar Thornton taking their advice and actually killing whites, it is Liberal, Progressive, Democrat racists who are responsible for this shooting.</p>
<p>That’s my rant!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<li><a href="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/congressional-black-caucus.jpg" class="img zoom rounded imgHover"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-2105" style="margin: 5px;" title="congressional-black-caucus" src="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/congressional-black-caucus-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a>I have openly called the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) the most corrupt group in politics.  I stand by what I said.  The CBC—all Democrats—has been fleecing America for decades, using racism as their “license to steal,” and their “get out of jail” cards.
<p>The sad truth is that members of the CBC have gotten PAID on racism, and I mean handsomely.  Yet they have done little to nothing for the communities they serve. In fact, most black communities are far worse than they were, before they were gerrymandered, all but guaranteeing that a black Democrat would represent black people&#8230;<em>over the cliff</em>!</p>
<p>Though non-representation of their constituents is bad, it is not a crime.  However, the CBC does commit crimes. </p>
<p>The stench of a self-serving conspiracy didn’t stop Marcia Fudge (D-Ohio) and nineteen other CBC members backed by caucus chairwoman Barbara Lee (D-California) from introducing a resolution to decrease the openness in which the office works.  Quite the contrary, as this group within the CBC wants to inhibit the instigation of an investigation, <a href="http://apnews.myway.com/article/20100602/D9G3AVUO0.html">scale back</a> the powers of the Office of Congressional Ethics—an <em>independent</em> group of private citizens.</p>
<p>Why would the idea of impropriety dissuade the CBC?  After all, if DC will re-elect crack head Marion Barry, why not try to shut down the OCE?</p>
<p>Let’s recap a few scandals:</p>
<p>William Jefferson who literally had his money on ice, when the FBI discovered that he had hidden $90K in bribery money in his freezer! I know black people:  He was SET UP, and by white men keeping a brotha down!</p>
<p><a href="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/jesse-jackson-jr-sr.jpg" class="img zoom rounded imgHover"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2106" title="jesse-jackson-jr-sr" src="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/jesse-jackson-jr-sr-300x188.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="188" /></a>Jesse Jackson, Jr. (D-IL) is currently embroiled in a pay-for-play scandal, where it is alleged that he tried to buy the vacated Senate seat for $1.5M. Chump change for a guy who owns the Anheuser-Busch distributorship for Chicago! Little Jackson barely had enough money to move from DC to Chicago, when he “lucked into” the Congressional seat vacated by Mel Reynolds. Only a fool would not believe that Jackson didn’t try to buy this seat. That is Chicago Politics 101!</p>
<p>Then there is <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Charlie Rangel</span>,(D-NY) Slum Lord Millionaire, who was digitally captured, mouth agape as he sunned his rotund belly under the warmth of Caribbean sun, the only thing missing was a pina colada in Rangel&#8217;s kung fu grip.  Rangel’s jaunt to the azure seas was sponsored by corporations, and discovered, ironically by the Office of Congressional Ethics.</p>
<p>Back in 2009 <a href="http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1109/29055.html">Politico reported</a> that amongst some members of the CBC,</p>
<blockquote><p>some have argued that race plays a role in the ongoing efforts to remove <a href="http://topics.politico.com/index.cfm/topic/CharlieRangel" target="_blank">Rep. Charles Rangel</a> (D-N.Y.) from his chairmanship of that committee.</p></blockquote>
<p>No, Rangel’s own actions are the reason efforts were made to remove him!</p>
<p>Along with OCE, the House Ethics Committee opened <a href="http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1009/28912.html" target="_blank">full-blown investigations</a> of California Democratic Reps. <a href="http://topics.politico.com/index.cfm/topic/MaxineWaters" target="_blank">Maxine Waters</a> and <a href="http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1009/28860.html" target="_blank">Laura Richardson</a>, both of whom are black. And both of whom are crooks!</p>
<p><a href="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/charlie-rangel.jpg" class="img zoom rounded imgHover"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-2107" style="margin: 5px;" title="charlie-rangel" src="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/charlie-rangel-271x300.jpg" alt="" width="271" height="300" /></a>Here’s the wrap:</p>
<p>You&#8217;d think in light of all the scandals by the Congressional Black Caucus, they would demand the transparency that Obama campaigned on. Ironically, the reason the CBC wants to scale back these powers is they find</p>
<blockquote><p>…the transparency of the office is damaging to persons eventually cleared of ethics violations.</p></blockquote>
<p>Since when is being cleared of ethics violations considered <em>damaging</em>?</p>
<p>If an investigation proves fruitless, all that says to an honest person is that the Office of Congressional Ethics is a bit overzealous. If an overzealous entity clears you, doesn&#8217;t that make you look better?</p>
<p>Not if you’re GUILTY! Like Barrack “Transparency” Obama, these CBC night-crawlers avoid the light of day like vampires, and for good reason.  They are crooks!</p>
<p>What else doesn&#8217;t the Congressional Black Caucus want the Office of Congressional Ethics to find?  Eight of the investigations launched by the Office of Congressional Ethics were against black caucus members. Is Ms. Fudge concerned that, out of a body of 42 folks, more investigations loom? Hard to imagine, since currently one in five Congressional Black Caucus members has been targeted by the Office of Congressional Ethics.</p>
<p>It’s time America began electing blacks with ethics, and stop electing black Democrat crooks who demand “licenses to steal” and “get out of jail free” cards.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s my rant!</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/Mexicans-crossing-border.jpg" class="img zoom rounded imgHover"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1991" style="margin: 10px;" title="Mexicans crossing border" src="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/Mexicans-crossing-border-300x206.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="206" /></a>It was brought to my attention that the US policy on immigration is indeed <em>racist</em>!  In the spirit of fair play to the Left, I must right this wrong on behalf of all African-Americans.  In order to put this in proper perspective, I will elucidate the immigration policy of the US.</p>
<p>You see, if you cross the border illegally into the US, you are issued a driver’s license, and a social security card.  These two documents will allow you participation on America’s welfare system, or what is better known as The Immigrant Lotto! And you are an <em>instant</em> winner!</p>
<p>The immigrant lotto pays off like a change machine, every time, its only delay is to reload with fresh greenbacks!  Every winner gets lots of prizes that thankfully for the illegal immigrant become what are known as “entitlements!”</p>
<p>One such “entitlement” is a federally subsidized government home.  Illegals can rent it or own it…their choice.  But why not own!  Because if they fail to pay for it, the Fed will simply keep making the payments for them!  The only loser in this part of the lotto is the people who don’t qualify for the Federal programs, otherwise known by Liberals as “The Oppressors of Democrat Voters.”</p>
<p>Next, illegal immigrants are issued a food credit card, a card that replaced food stamps.  The beauty of the credit card is that it is accepted by establishments (bars) who serve food (and liquor), so illegals can now get their drink on, without having to convert the old food stamps for cash, then buy liquor at the grocery store.  Liquor is a bit more expensive at the bar, however illegals can just think of it as a night out at the American taxpayers’ expense!</p>
<p>Next lotto entitlement is a free education, not that immigrants should bother using it.  Why even bother with education, when all a good one will get you is headaches? </p>
<p>With a good education illegals run the risk of becoming “high earners,” thus opting out of the lotto. Let those high achieving ethical right-wing weenies go for the gold, while illegals sit on their lazy asses watching Novellas or The View translated in Spanish (SAP) on that new flat screen TV they got from Rent-A-Center&#8230;with taxpayer dollars!</p>
<p>In the education system there is the Super Lotto.  If you are an immigrant and can miraculously get into Columbia, then Harvard, well you might fly in under the radar, and who knows…you could become president.  A  300 million-to-one chance that you will receive <em>that</em> benny, however. So again, why bother!</p>
<p>Nevertheless, what the lotto lacks in education bennies, it <em>more</em> than makes up for in healthcare.  For now, the US still enjoys the distinction of being the best healthcare system in the world.  And as an illegal participant, immigrants are treated to the same service as <em>legal</em> citizens, without that nagging bill.  The “Get out of the Emergency Room Free” card is simply, “No speaky English!”</p>
<p>Other lotto goodies include a government subsidized GM car, a cell phone (in case the First Lady happens by), one’s own lobbyist in Washington, and the right to protest one’s harsh and unfair treatment by America, and illegals get to accuse their newly adopted country of imperialism in the immigrant&#8217;s home country&#8230;BONUS!  </p>
<blockquote><p><em>The &#8216;Blame America&#8217; card: Don’t leave home without it</em>.</p></blockquote>
<p>Add to this the right to vote illegally in America’s elections, and you have what is this man’s definition of <em>Utopia</em>.  If you’re a <em>Mexican</em>, that is!</p>
<p>As an African-American, I am appalled by this racist policy!  Had it not been for Dave Perkins—a white man—frankly I would have missed this most racist policy of the Fed.</p>
<p>As Dave, my friend and producer points out,</p>
<blockquote><p>…it&#8217;s unfair to penalize Africans for the fact that their country is thousands of miles away, in the wrong hemisphere and across the ocean.  They didn&#8217;t ask to be born there.  Africans should have the same right to walk across illegally into America that Mexicans have.  It&#8217;s only fair.</p></blockquote>
<p>I agree!  Not to mention, Africa is more than a country, it’s a continent. Africa has 53 countries, not counting disputed territories, and there are many ethnicities to take into account, not just Mexican! </p>
<p><a href="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/african-at-coast.jpg" class="img zoom rounded imgHover"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1992" title="african at coast" src="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/african-at-coast-300x174.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="174" /></a>Here&#8217;s the wrap:</p>
<p>Dave goes on to say,</p>
<p>“Therefore I am calling on Congress to create and fund a fleet of ships whose sole purpose is to go and down both African coasts and pick up anyone who wants to come to the US illegally, feed and clothe them for the voyage, and drop them off just south of Brownsville/McAllen on the eastern Mexican coast.  Once there, they will be equipped with backpacks of food and Gatorade and good walking shoes, and they can simply walk across our border just like the Mexicans.”</p>
<p>But that would just be step one towards correcting this most racist policy against African illegals!</p>
<p>Not one iota of concern is voiced in America about the translation of documents into one of the more than 2000 languages spoken in Africa, even the more prominent languages like Bantu in Angola, or Fon and Yuroba in Benin, Amharic in Ethiopia, Fang, Mbere, Punu, or Sira in Gabon, Darija in Morocco, and so on. Africans are <em>forced</em> to learn English!</p>
<p>Until the Democrats implement this or an equivalent solution, I will be calling them anti-African racists. Join me!</p>
<p>That’s my rant!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/osama-bin-laden-video.jpg" class="img zoom rounded imgHover"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1457" style="margin: 10px;" title="osama-bin-laden-video" src="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/osama-bin-laden-video-300x216.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="216" /></a>While the US has a huge contingent of Americans donating time, energy, and money to save the citizens of Haiti, Osama bin Laden comes out of the cave to release threatening audio against America, and to take claim for the Nigerian Crotch Bomber, reminding us that Islam is the religion of peace, I guess!</p>
<p>I have yet to hear of any Muslim countries providing anything more than lip service to the Haitians. The only Muslim support for the Haitians of which I’m aware—as <a href="http://www.america.gov/st/peopleplace-english/2010/January/20100115121935smtotrob0.6226465.html?CP.rss=true">reported by THE FED</a>—is from Muslim organizations in the United States.  And it’s not like they are having a major impact, particularly in comparison to the amount of money they gave to Obama’s campaign!</p>
<p>If I’m being totally honest, I have a skeptical eye on Muslim’s fund-raising efforts on behalf of Haiti, wondering if some of these agencies may be taking advantage of this situation to raise funds for their own nefarious deeds.  For now, I will give them the benefit of the doubt.</p>
<p>But that may not last long, as you can bet that none of these organizations will speak out against Osama bin Laden.  If there was a time to do so, that time would be now.  He is doing nothing to promote the peace of Islam, and is again posturing against the US.</p>
<p>As America helps hundreds of thousands of people in need, Obama doesn’t have the decency to feel sympathy or empathy for the tens of thousands of Haitians killed.  Nor does he show sympathy for the survivors who are struggling for basic necessities. Perhaps bin Laden has lived under a rock for so long that he feels Haitians are living the lush life in comparison?</p>
<p>Why is bin Laden threatening us now anyway?  What exactly is America doing now to piss him off? </p>
<p>I haven’t Googled “infidel” in a while, but are Haitians on the list?  I know they practice voodoo, but not <em>all</em> of them. There are many Muslim nations in Africa, surely there was one or two Muslims among the thousands of Haitians killed? </p>
<p>I guess if the majority of Haitians are not Muslims, then the earthquake was performing its own <em>fatwa</em> on Haiti, and on behalf of Allah?  The few Muslims who might have been killed or injured are just casualties of the bigger war? In the war against the Infidels, there will be Muslim casualties.</p>
<p>If there is any reason to side with Israel against idiots like bin Laden, here is your evidence.  Of all times for bin Laden to make a statement against “the Infidel,” he chooses a time when Americans are knee deep in Haitian rubble&#8230;<em>helping</em> them!</p>
<p>I thought he had learned something from the Left in this country.  Use crises to your advantage, not your disadvantage!  Here’s a few ways he could have done this.</p>
<p>First, establish the Osama bin Laden fund to help the Haitians.  This way, like Democrats bin Laden could then demagogue, at least pretending that he cared about Haitians, though he obviously does not.</p>
<p>Next, bin Laden should send al Qaeda operatives over to Haiti to help.  Even the most hardened terrorists need a break from jihad.  Compared to the mountains of Afghanistan and Pakistan, even an earthquake-torn Haiti would look like a Sandals vacation resort.</p>
<p>As for reasons bin Laden has chosen to threaten on Obama’s watch, maybe he’s mad at Obama for not being a better Muslim?  Now you might be able to convince me that Obama is no longer a Muslim, but he was at one time.  He obtained a pass against his <em>fatwa</em> for some reason, perhaps the Muslimhood was paid off to not demand Obama’s death for converting to Christianity. Or maybe he was forgiven, because Obama is as worthless as a Christian as he was a Muslim?</p>
<p>Regardless, I will tell you this, Obama is the closest a Muslim—ex or otherwise—will get to the position of POTUS in my lifetime, and I predict the lifetime of my children.  And no thanks to bin Laden!</p>
<p>Bin Laden has the chance to prop up his once-Muslim brother, yet he thumbs Obama in the eye, thumps his ear, taunts him…<em>publicly</em>, no less!</p>
<p><a href="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/Haiti-gh-082503-038c.jpg" class="img zoom rounded imgHover"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1459" style="margin-left: 10px; margin-right: 10px;" title="Haiti-gh-082503-038c" src="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/Haiti-gh-082503-038c-300x210.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="210" /></a>Here’s the wrap:</p>
<p>Osama bin Laden’s timing is atrocious.  He’s obviously slipping.  You just don’t threaten a country, when they are in the process of helping another country.  It just makes bin Laden look like one of those Hollywood starlets who informs the media where she will be, then acts like she’s mad that  the paparazzi showed up!</p>
<p>Bin Laden shows his real insensitivity to Muslims, as he dispatches a young Nigerian bomber off to blow up a plane…using the bomber’s naughty bits as the fuse.  This zealot was prepared to meet his 70 virgins—with nothing to work with!  A shed with no tools!  What was this guy going to do, <em>TALK</em> to his virgins for eternity?!</p>
<p>Then there is the question that I have never heard asked is, “<em>What do women suicide bombers get in the afterlife</em>?”  Do they get 70 virgin men?</p>
<p>What is it with the Muslim faith that they are so all consuming with sex in the afterlife?  I don’t mind the idea of having sex for an eternity, but I hope I can golf and fish too.  Too much sex is like too much sugar! </p>
<p>“<em>Anybody interested in 30 of my virgins? Come on…make me an offer. No, they are good virgins, but I think 40 is plenty for me!</em>”</p>
<p>Maybe bin Laden just needs to get some after being holed up in a mountain for so long. Regardless he appears hell bent on delaying the meeting with <em>his</em> virgins.</p>
<p>That’s my rant!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Even black Jesus won't save the day in the land soon-to-be formerly known as The People’s Republic of Taxachussetts. Obama rode in on his white horse, and rode out on a black sheep!]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/Ten-Commandments.jpg" class="img zoom rounded imgHover"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1451" style="margin: 10px;" title="Ten Commandments" src="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/Ten-Commandments-210x300.jpg" alt="" width="210" height="300" /></a>The Democrats are in <em>panic </em>mode, and they’d better be! To paraphrase Edward G. Robinson in The Ten Commandments, “<em>Where’s your God now, Liberals</em>!” Oh, that&#8217;s right, Liberals want God out&#8230;and black Jesus in!</p>
<p>Even black Jesus won&#8217;t save the day in the land soon-to-be formerly known as <em>The People’s Republic of Taxachussetts</em>. Obama rode in on his white horse, and rode out on a black sheep!</p>
<p>The reason the salad days have ended is because of black Jesus himself! It is simply not possible to lie more during a campaign than Obama did during his campaign, as if his <em>truths</em> were scary enough!</p>
<p>Obama said he would essentially neuter our military, release terrorists from GITMO, raise taxes on the rich, redistribute wealth, discourage business, and the list goes on. By <em>not</em> accomplishing all that he wanted, he has still managed to wreck the economy, and give America the highest unemployment since his mentor, Jimmy Carter—another embarrassment to America.</p>
<p>Obama left little doubt that he believes in the government running big businesses, when he “bailed out” the unions and the financial industry, since the free market system just couldn’t cut it. He put money in shovel-ready projects, and people are digging holes for themselves all over America.</p>
<p>Obama is full of silly ideas, origins that could only come from theory, as they had no use in the real world. One of those ideas&#8211;Healthcare&#8211;may just be his undoing.  Here is Obama in 2005 discussing healthcare and social security:</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="344" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/3GdxbRLLS0I&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/3GdxbRLLS0I&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always"></embed></object></p>
<p>In a state where Democrats outnumber Republicans 3 to 1, a Republican may be the front-runner, and I predict will be the next senator from Massachusetts. Talk about the people revolting. And if you want to witness the vitriol of the Left—in your face—just let a Republican win something that the Democrats take for granted. Here is Keith Olbermann demonstrating exactly what I mean.</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="344" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/xlfGjGBrNKg&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/xlfGjGBrNKg&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always"></embed></object></p>
<p>I can hardly wait for the reaction from Democrats, when black folks revolt against them! They’ve been taking black folks for granted for years, and I say the black folks equivalent of Massachusetts is on its way!</p>
<p>The Democrats are getting exactly what they deserve! A sound old-fashioned country butt-kicking! And this special election could not have come at a better time to provide just that!</p>
<p>The irony is that this election is sandwiched between MLK, Jr’s birthday and Black History Month, representing both Emancipation Part Deux and the next Civil Rights revolution! What an historic time, as this time it is not just blacks being freed, it is America being freed!</p>
<p>It’s Civil War II, and the only bloodshed…unless you count the brain hemorrhaging happening with Democrats all over the country! In Civil War II, the North and the South decided collectively to reject decisively Obama’s agenda. Boston is the new Antietam, the perfect place to fight the second Civil War.</p>
<p>Here’s the wrap:</p>
<p>Win or lose for Republicans, the MA senate race is a rejection of Obama, socialism, and all that he represents. It has nothing to do with Coakley, incompetent she certainly is.</p>
<p>This race is a rejection of the scam of the light-skinned black-with-no-Negro dialect, communist sympathizer, no-talent-no-resume having, social ladder climbing, rock-star wannabe, so-called leader of the New World Order. This rejection is LONG overdue!</p>
<p>This election shows that Guilters recognize that they voted for the wrong black man. I applaud them for admitting it…sort of.</p>
<p>They realize that America is being held hostage, and it’s time we brought her home. She’s tired and hungry! But with a little pampering, she will be the beautiful beacon of light for the world that she once was.</p>
<p>As much as I detest the Obama administration, I have to say that it may have been necessary. It took Obama to show us the radical side of the Left’s ideology, and thankfully he scared his own. As the saying goes, &#8220;God gives us not what we want but what we need&#8221;&#8211;Though at times He leaves us not knowing whether to scratch our watches or wind our butts!</p>
<p>I believe that God is trying to tell us—and THEM—something!  I believe God will make one of His boldest statements today. Because when Brown wins, it will be God giving America REAL hope and change.</p>
<p>That’s my rant!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[The Democrats provide amazing reminders that slavery is alive and thriving in America today.  The plantation these days is Congress.  White Democrats are the plantation owners, and the Congressional Black Caucus members are the slaves…modern day House Negros.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/blacks-for-sale.jpg" class="img zoom rounded imgHover"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1404" style="margin: 10px;" title="blacks for sale" src="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/blacks-for-sale-300x221.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="221" /></a>The Democrats provide amazing reminders that slavery is alive and thriving in America today.  The plantation these days is Congress.  White Democrats are the plantation owners, and the Congressional Black Caucus members are the slaves…modern day House Negros.</p>
<p>As in the days of Democrat oppression, House Negros of today represent <em>royalty</em> to blacks, <em>leaders</em>, second only to the poverty pimps served up by a complicit Liberal-loving media.  Unlike other races, Democrat blacks need <em>identifiable</em> leaders or how would they survive?</p>
<p>As <a href="http://field-negro.blogspot.com/2009/12/black-conservative-redux.html">this blogger</a> put it regarding house Negros during slavery,</p>
<blockquote><p>At least those [house] Negroes would tell the field slaves, from time to time, what massa was up to, and they would even slip them food and supplies from out of the <em>big house</em> to the slave quarters. These modern day house Negroes<em> (you know who you are)</em> would never share with those they consider field slaves.</p></blockquote>
<p>I couldn’t agree more.  And today’s selfish House Negros are under fire, as many black Democrat congressmen are under ethics investigations—and not by Republicans!  In an ironic twist of fate these black leaders who have kept white Democrats in power since the 1980’s are now being investigated by those very same white Democrats!  Are the racist Democrat power brokers simply putting these uppity House Negros in place?  Black Power…with white supervision?!</p>
<p>But House Negros are fighting back…sort of.  As the AP reports,</p>
<blockquote><p>By boycotting a key House committee vote last week and threatening to abandon support for banking regulations, members of the Congressional Black Caucus got $4 billion added to a Wall Street regulation bill and $2 billion to a proposed House jobs bill in spending they sought for African American communities.  House Financial Services Committee Chairman Barney Frank, D-Mass., this week inserted $3 billion to the legislation to provide low-interest loans to unemployed homeowners in danger of foreclosure. He added $1 billion for neighborhood revitalization programs.</p></blockquote>
<p>Chairman Barney Frank—Massa to the Congressional Black Caucus—threw those silly House Negros a <em>bone</em>…and placed it through their noses!</p>
<p>This $6B will come from the $700B “rescue fund.” Let me help you with the math people.  That’s not even 1% of the rescue fund!  Yet blacks make up 12.5% of the population!</p>
<p>White Democrats get far more for their constituents, as <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/12/21/price-right-payoffs-senators-typical-health-care/">reported here in Fox News</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Vermont and Massachusetts got $1.2 billion in Medicaid money &#8212; a change that was described as a correction to the current system which exempts those two states because they have robust health care systems. Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders also boasted Saturday that he requested and won an investment worth between $10 and $14 billion for community health centers. </p></blockquote>
<p>Vermont! $10-$14 Billion for a state with the population of a <em>suburb</em> of Detroit!  For what it’s worth, I say let the white folks negotiate for blacks. Because the Congressional Black Caucus—the most egregious group of black hoodlums in America negotiated for crumbs! A pittance!  About two hours of interest on the national debt.  In Obamaland, where trillion has entered the lexicon, a few lousy billion is simply “chump change.” </p>
<p>The question is “Why would the CBC only go for a pittance?” Surely ONE of them could do the math?!</p>
<p>That’s what happens when you aren’t really thinking about “the people.”  The CBC negotiated for what <em><span style="text-decoration: underline;">they</span></em> could get to keep it quiet that they really DON’T represent black people.  A true representative number for blacks would have been $87.5B.  The $6B was a <em>payoff</em> for the CBC! Yes those sorry ass silly Democrat Negros, sold black people out!</p>
<p>Don’t expect one of the blacks in the inner sanctum to step up to get this money to blacks who really need it, and I don’t mean the porch sitters.  Black people have no such champion in the CBC.  So this money will go into the pockets of the respective Head Negros In Charge (HNIC).  In the end, black communities would receive more if the government just <em>burned</em> that money to heat black people’s home in the winter, or better yet, just give black people crack!</p>
<p>One of the HNICs and perhaps the biggest mouths in the CBC, Democrat Maxine Waters (D) is one of the biggest crooks. Waters extorted the taxpayers for $12M in TARP funds, funds sent to a bank where her husband was a board member, AND a significant investor.  Waters comment on this “<a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/03/14/maxine-waters-defends-rol_n_174948.html">banking deal</a>,” as reported in the Huffington Post:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I had no influence on what Bush administration officials in the Treasury Department or other departments did,&#8221; Waters said in a statement Friday.</p></blockquote>
<p>Even Waters knows when to invoke the ghost of white boogeymen past…George Bush!  And while blacks are blaming the boogeyman, Waters says to blacks “…believe <em>me</em>, not your lying eyes!”</p>
<p>Sadly, Waters is not alone, as most of the black Democrats in Congress are just like her.  Waters, <em>et al</em> were born of a movement headed by a small few like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. The strategy began with the “progressive” and famous racist Margaret Sanger, when <a href="http://www.blackgenocide.org/obama.html">she suggested to Clarence Gamble</a> in The Negro Project,</p>
<blockquote><p>“We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities.  The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal.  We don&#8217;t want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Sanger didn’t realize what a bargain she would get, as she only needed two “colored ministers” to implement her plan. Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton evangelized and black people listened.  And Obama’s record of social service is legendary at this point.  I know what you’re thinking…but in his own way Baby Jesus IS a minister!</p>
<p><a href="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/congressional-black-caucus-2.jpg" class="img zoom rounded imgHover"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1405" title="congressional black caucus 2" src="http://theblacksphere.net/wp-content/uploads/congressional-black-caucus-2-300x211.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="211" /></a>Here’s the wrap:</p>
<p>Over the years, the simple truth is black people have grown to love, actually <em>idolize</em> black crooks. They are matinee idols, their roles learned from movies like <em>The Mack</em>. As <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0070350/">one reviewer put it</a>,</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Pretty Tony&#8221; promptly beats down one of his hos with his own hat after she presents him with an amount of cash that is apparently not acceptable for a four-hour shift on the street corner&#8230;what a slacker.</p></blockquote>
<p>Today, life mimics art! Black elitists are “beatin’ down their hos,” pimping other blacks to get and keep their power.  And the black folks being pimped could care less. As long as somebody <em>black</em> gets to “the man,” black folks are happy. But are blacks really getting to “the man?” More importantly, what happens when “the man” has nothing left to give?</p>
<p>Black people won’t get their “fair share”, though they may get a few basketball rims in neighborhood parks, a self-service car wash, a check cashing place, or a new BBQ joint.  Let’s not forget the police substation. </p>
<p>However, the <em>real</em> problems of the black community will not be addressed by these funds or any other Democrat payoff.  Because as it has been and will always be with Democrats, they will give blacks just enough to keep blacks stupid, but not enough for blacks to really get ahead&#8230;Democrat LBJ&#8217;s Great Society! </p>
<p>Further, Democrat black leaders will continue to play the role of House Negros.  And when today’s House Negros are responsible for the lives of field Negros, one thing is for sure. Things won’t get any better for ordinary black folks!</p>
<p>One final truism—white Democrats will <em>always</em> have need for House Negros, because black<br />
Democrats need leaders…the more crooked, the <em>better</em>!</p>
<p>That’s my rant!</p>
