MLK Would Be Ashamed And Other Tidbits

This week we celebrated the life of Martin Luther King Jr, a man who fought for civil rights and equality, a man who said people should be judged by the content of their character and not the color of their skin. King would be very disappointed in the way things turned out.

In the decades since King fought for equality the federal government has made the black population slaves to its programs. The Democrat party in particular has enslaved the blacks by assuming they are unable to make it in life without some kind of government assistance. Social welfare programs have broken the black family apart so much so that nearly three quarters of black families lack a father figure. Blacks vote Democrat at about a 90% rate because they are now addicted to the government teat and the programs offered by Democrats to keep them in their places only allowing them to come out long enough to vote Democrat every few years. Then they are ignored until the next election being placated along the way with scraps from the Democrat’s table.

Allen West, a black conservative Republican, does not like how things are going and he has warned Democrats (particularly Obama) not to use the overplayed race card. West said that Dr. King would be devastated by how Obama deals with race issues. Certainly king would not like the attitudes of the Obamas, Eric Holder and the Democrat members of the Congressional Black Caucus and the way they act. King would be particularly devastated by the way the black population has allowed itself to be, once again, enslaved.

Perhaps King is looking down and expressing his displeasure. The eternal (as in, never ending) flame at his tomb was referred to during a news cast and as the camera panned to it, the flame went out. That pretty much sums up how Democrats have tarnished the King legacy.

In other news, Greece will soon default. The people in Greece pressed for more and more government services while they paid fewer and fewer taxes. Their Socialist scheme hit a bump when they ran out of other people’s money. They even ran out of the money they borrowed from even more people. The United States is running the same risk as Democrats insist on more and more welfare to enslave more of the population. They will not be happy until they have us all locked on the same plantation they have been keeping the majority of the blacks in this country.

They scream about the rich paying more in taxes while 50% of wage earners pay no federal taxes. The upper 50% is expected to pay even more to support the bottom half. If the rich are not paying their fair share then the bottom 50% are really in debt to the country. They are not paying any share.

Unfortunately, people keep begging for more “free” money from government to satisfy their addiction to OPP (Other People’s Property) and they will not stop until we are defaulting like Greece (if that is even able to stop them).

Social Welfare programs account for the largest part of our budget (much more so than the defense budget) and those programs continue to grow and cost even more. We are in debt to the tune of 15 TRILLION dollars and we have no hope of ever getting that under control. The debt was about 10 TRILLION when Obama took office and he has added 5 TRILLION in just three years. This money is being borrowed in order to pay our bills. This is no way to run a country as Greece well knows. It is an example we should learn from but do not.

Obama insists on failed Keynesian economics. That principle has never worked and never will but Obama keeps with it while spending us into oblivion.

How long will it be before the eternal flame of freedom in this country dies in the night like the flame on MLK’s tomb?

Left Only Tolerant Of Those On The Plantation

The liberal Democrat party in America claims to be tolerant. It has rewritten history to ignore or change the fact that the Democrats supported slavery and were anti civil rights. The left has brainwashed generations of minorities into believing that only the liberal establishment loves them, cares for them, and will help them.

Until the day after Election Day. Then, those minorities get some “goodies” to placate them and they are pushed into the background and regaled with stories about how wonderful liberals have always been to the minorities. We love you women, you blacks, you Hispanics, and you gays. We are there for you now vote for us and shut up.

The left keeps harping on how tolerant it is but the reality is that the left is only tolerant of those who stay on the plantation.

The left loves blacks unless the blacks are conservatives. Then the real racism rears its ugly head and the racial slurs begin. Women, the liberals love you and will defend you unless you are conservative and then no liberal organization INCLUDING NOW will defend you. Gays, we love you and want you to have everything you want unless you happen to be a conservative. Then you are a turncoat who needs to be assaulted. Gay conservatives can be assaulted and will not be held up as examples of intolerant bullying like a Matthew Shepard was.

Intolerant liberals do not believe they can ever be guilty of racism, hate crimes or intolerance because they claim not to be. They claim it so it must be true.

A gay TV star named Taylor Garrett can tell us all about intolerance. He happens to be a Republican and conservative. According to Garrett, he was recently targeted by the so called tolerant left, because he is conservative. Garrett was beaten by a man who Garret discovered defacing his car. Some thug was scratching a vulgarity aimed at Ann Coulter whom Garrett was supposed to meet with to discuss gay marriage and to show that just because you do not support it (like Coulter) does not make you a bigot.

Garrett confronted the man who was scratching the words into his car and was assaulted.

How dare this guy stray from the plantation? Does he not know that the liberals own him along with the others who have been enslaved?

The violence of the Occupy crowd, the violence of the left toward TEA Party members, the racist remarks by the left, and the attacks on gays and blacks who happen to be conservative are examples of the intolerance toward those who do not follow the orthodoxy of the left. The violence is even more pronounced when the person involved is of a protected class the liberals have claimed as their property.

Truth be told, the liberal establishment is only mildly tolerant of those who remain on the plantation. As long as they know their place they are tolerated. The ones who stray get whipped by the liberal taskmasters. Those who leave the plantation get pummeled.

You just don’t see that coming from conservatives. We fought to end slavery so we don’t think we own anyone or are entitled to own anyone.

The left, on the other hand, considers them bought and paid for.

All White Rainbow in Occupy Movement

When the TEA Party arrived on the scene a few years ago the progressives and their media wing made the claim that the Party was all white, a bunch of redneck racists. Chris Matthews of MSNBC made the false accusation that “All of them, every single one of them is white.” when referring to the TEA Party. This, of course, is demonstrably false but Matthews had his marching orders from the Democrats and he had to paint the TEA Party as a non diverse group of racists. Matthews has no obligation to report the truth because he told us that it is his job to make sure Obama succeeds. Keep in mind that he will approach every task with that as his goal. What he says or does is designed to fulfill his job of ensuring Obama succeeds.

Dana Milbank of the Washington Post reported on a question being asked about the Tea Party and an upcoming rally (from September 2010) being another event distinguished by a sea of white faces. This prompted groups to go to efforts to highlight those who attended who were not part of the white sea. I have been to a number of TEA Party events and there is diversity. It does not look like a rainbow and the math suggests that it never could.

The American population is overwhelmingly white. About 70% of the population is white and 12% is black. The rest are other ethnicities. 95% of all blacks are aligned with the Democrat party. The TEA Party is not a political party but it is based on conservative principles. While many blacks are conservative in their lives they are unlikely to attend an event reported to them by the media wing as being a Republican event. They are unlikely to attend something that they perceive as being against the black man they voted for. They are unlikely to attend something their Democrat leaders have told them is bad.

So mathematically, there are not going to be a lot of faces that are not white in any random crowd, much less a TEA Party crowd.

But this does not stop the media wing of the Democrat party from calling the TEA Party racists and suggesting that there is no diversity or that only white people are allowed. Those talking heads in the Democrat media have no clue about the math or what any given crowd would look like.

One only needs to look at the Occupy Wall Street movement to see the math play out. Those groups, all across the country, are awash in a sea of white, to borrow from Milbank’s piece. There are no black faces to be found. The white light failed to hit the prism. If Chris Matthews’ job was not to ensure Obama succeeded he might say; All of them, every single one of them is white.

The left is no more diverse than the right.

The OWS movement has been orchestrated by the left. It is supported by the left and its backers in labor. One would think that with all the diversity the left allegedly has the protests it has organized would contain more colors than white.

You won’t hear about this in the news and you won’t read about it in any of the print papers. You will not hear the very people who bashed the TEA Party say anything about the lack of diversity on the left.

It does not fit the narrative. It does not fit with what they preach. It does not support their claims.

So they have to ignore it. Just like the OWS protesters ignore reality while they demand the rich pay more in taxes and that debt be forgiven. They ignore the truth about taxes while demanding the wealthy give their money away (to the OWS folks, of course).

Dick Morris recently reported:

Here are the facts according to the IRS:

  • Those making more than $1 million pay 24% of income in taxes
  • Those making $200,000 to $300,000 pay 17.5%
  • Those making $100,000 to $125,000 pay 9.9%
  • Those making $50,000 to $60,000 pay 6.3%
  • Those making $20,000 to $30,000 pay 2.5%

What level of income do you think the OWS (those poor WHITE) folks are in? Many, by their own admission, are not working so they pay no taxes (and will undoubtedly get money back in the IRS redistribution scheme) and they are protesting for the 1% (the wealthy) to pay their fair share.

The numbers do not lie. The wealthy are paying most of the taxes in this country and certainly more than their fair share.

An Invitation To Morgan Freeman

A young black man named Ali Akbar has written an invitation to Morgan Freeman after Freeman made statements about the TEA Party and racism. Mr. Akbar wrote a very well thought letter and his invitation is sincere. He wants Freeman to see the people he thinks are racists, as they are and not how the media portray them, so he can have a clear picture of those folks. This makes sense. How can Freeman or anyone else say what any group is if he has never been around them?

Your comments about the tea party have caused me physical pain. You’ve rekindled the old painful paradigm of Uncle Tom – that any black man who votes Republican is some kind of sellout. It’s not true. I work hard, pay my taxes, love Jesus, and I’m good to my family and community. In effect, your comments have stereotyped an entire group of people. And I know in my soul that you must regret that on some level.

There’s already plenty of groupthink among American blacks. Over 90% of us vote Democrat with religious regularity, and we have been doing so for over fifty years. For a short time, I was one of them. I realized a few years ago that the Democrats’ promises of equality bestowed by government wasn’t working and will never work. I came to believe that redistributionist policies with the goal of social justice was essentially creating a new plantation within the federal government. Scraps might be thrown our way, but dependence on the plantation would be the inevitable result.

Over half a century since we started voting for Democrat policies, blacks in America are worse off than before. Black Americans are more likely to get involved with drugs, go to prison, and die younger than our white counterparts. Over 70% of our children are born out of wedlock. Our abortion rate has never been higher. There are two explanations for these results. 1) Blacks are an inferior race and can’t take care of themselves. 2) Despite the best of intentions, the government has created and implemented “social justice” policies that promote perpetual dependence. I choose to believe the latter. Therefore, I have become a Republican. Read entire letter here

I think Freeman and all others who have painted the TEA Party with a broad brush should attend a few rallies and learn the truth.

It always amazes me that liberals claim to oppose broad generalizations or hatred based on a trait (such as hating all black people because they are black) but will hate entire groups with which they disagree using broad generalizations or traits they assume exist.

If liberals disagree with you it is OK, in their world, to do the things they regularly claim to oppose…

Good job Mr. Akbar. I hope Mr. Freeman takes you up on your offer.

But I would not hold my breath if I were you.
