Here we go kids. Fast and loose.
It all started with sausage on a pizza. Sausage I did not order. Godfathers pizza. It wasn't anything really sexual in nature. Just a vague and ambiguous feeling of discomfort over the sexually suggestive meat product on my pizza. It made me uncomfortable. Then I found what appeared to be a pubic hair on my coke can. I want 35 grand. NOW. Now this all happened to me back in the 1990's, still it haunts me and I can't enjoy pizza to this day. Ok, that was clearly bullshit. I hate Godfathers pizza and I spent a fair chunk of the 90's in prison, where pizza resembles cornbread with beans, because they didn't serve fucking pizza, but served the hell out cornbread and beans. I just couldn't resist making fun of a black guys misfortune, free of the fear of being pegged as a racist.
I assumed when claims surfaced that Herman Cain sexually harassed 3 women in the previous century, the usual cadre of race police would rush to Cains defense, throwing the race card like ninja stars at anyone white who uttered a single critical word against this high profile black man. Strangely, I've yet to hear a single word from Sharpton, Waters, the Black Caucus, Jesse Jackson sr. or jr., The Grio, NAACP, and every flaming white guilt laden liberal who cried racism over the slightest criticism directed toward Obama.
Cain has about as much business being president as I do, or as the guy currently in the white house does, which is zero business. Cain isn't qualified to run this country. Sadly neither was Obama, and I say that as a one time supporter. That said, the hypocrisy of the left, the one sided racially loaded indignation that has been pulled out like a pistol at the slightest criticism of Obama, is nowhere to be found in the controversy surrounding Cain.
The first black president, Bill Clinton, tie dyed a woman's dress with his presidential tadpoles, he dipped his cigar, which was probably an illegal Cuban, into the who ha of an intern, yet he is the favorite elder statesman of the liberals. Ted Kennedy is probably going to be canonized by the democrats, despite the fact that he killed a woman, while driving drunk. Obama, managed to overcome Rev. Wright, Bill Ayers, and his formerly ashamed to be an American wife. Don't get me wrong, the right is as fucked up as the left when it comes pointing out the other sides dirt while sweeping their own under the rug. But when race is a part of the equation, there is no short supply of self righteous white and black folk circling the wagons to defend the honor and blackness of our current Potus. Clearly someone changed the rules without telling me. It is now ok to criticize the President without Maxine Waters picketing your front yard.
Rick Perry's dreaded N word rock didn't get nearly the press that Cains alleged Sexual Harassment saga is getting. Mitt Romney's religious beliefs have received next to zero press. Not that I give a rats ass about Mitt's belief in a religion that is barely as old as his secret underwear. I'm just sayin, I'd like a little more even handed slinging of the race card from the left. There is currently a BLACK GUY being eviscerated in the press over accusations that are coming from people who don't want to put their face or name to the allegations. Where the fuck is Al , Maxine, and Jesse when you need em?

Don't know if you caught this series or not.

Jackson, et al are no different than the grifters who populate Eastside politics. It is all about the do-re-mi going into their pockets.
At times all decent people would like to spit in their hands, raise the black flag and begin slitting throats...
Can't add a single word. I agree with every single one of yours.
ReplyDeleteRon Paul. I'm sure you have some dirt on him. Let's hear it.
ReplyDeleteI, too, have buyer's remorse re: Obama. Wish I (and the Dems) had supported Hillary.
ReplyDeleteI was raised a staunch democrat, but have become entirely disenchanted with that party.
ReplyDeleteOnce I was old enough to smell the bullshit, I find myself voting for least evil candidate, party not be proud.
You hit the nail on the head about being qulified to lead this country though....the right man for the job doesnt always get the job.
George Burns was right-the only people that truly know how to run this nation are too busy driving taxis and cutting hair.
You are absolutely correct. That was very well-said. We can all imagine why hundreds of years of governance has led to this.
