With the election of the affirmative action candidate Barack Obama, we can now proclaim "racism" as official dead as an excuse and reparations as official paid.
I expect to see Black on Black Crime, Abortion, Welfare, The Civil Rights Business, Failure and all the other problems that lazy left-wing Blacks have blamed on racism over the years now solved. So now pull you pants up, put down your guns, take car of all the kids and get a job!
The positive part about Obama'[s win is that now, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and Louis Farrakhan will now have to get real jobs along with the CBC, "Can you say welcome to McDonald may I take your order?"
Don’t worry. They will still use it. They’ll say he would have won 538 if it wasn’t for racist crackers.
Hahahahaha! Dream on. It’s just begun.
You think Jackson and Sharpton really care about "struggling" blacks?
I believe it was sarcasm.
Also dead: trite lines such as “America is a racist country” and “our sad legacy of racism.”
I guess it was not enought for minorities to see the success of people like Colin Powell, Condi Rice, Ken Chenault (Amex CEO) to believe that they can make it to the top. Obama has reached the pinnacle of success in this country. No more talk of the government or “the man” keeping one down....
Yes! Now I want to see a concerted effort to dismantle affirmative action once and for all: we have a president-elect who is black, so that means a person of color CAN become leader of the free world.
Of course, what will our buds in Europe do now? They can’t call us racist anymore, and the election resulted how they wanted: what’s an American-bashing leftist (in other words, 99% of Western Europe) to do now? Longingly gaze at Bush for another 76 days?
But more pressing: will the Lady Obama give her Lord a male heir to secure the Succession?
Reparations have just begun, my friend.
I always thought it must be infuriating to any black American who has gone to school, worked for a job and succeeded in life to be told they couldn't do it because America is racist. My neighborhood is full of hard working Americans, who are black, and no one gave them the job or house - they earned it.
You are fooling yourself if you believe this, or if you think you will be able to argue this against the grievance-mongers. There will be “racism” in America as a way to shift money and power to minorities.
I bet Jackson and Sharpston voted McCain. They are now unemployed!
Do you have any idea how hard it is to get rid of an incompetent executive hired by affirmative action? Race remains an issue as we will no doubt see.
Don’t count on it. If anything, the election of Obama will be used to justify more affirmative action programs. After all, Obama wrote that he was the beneficiary of AA programs during his academic career and did not feel stigmatized by it.
Father walks in to find his 14 year old son watching television. Dad says "When Abraham Lincoln was your age, he was studying books by firelight."
To which the son replied, "When Abraham Lincoln was your age, he was President of the United States."
Pretty hard to claim being held down by "the man" when "the man" is a brother.
If this were true, I would have voted for the Fraud in Chief myself. I’m sure you’re being sarcastic, but I’m afraid this is only going to make the excuses worse. Want examples? Just look at some of the prima donna athletes who use the “race card” to explain their failures.
Trueblackman, you are wonderful. I am so glad you are on this forum.
Congratulations on your recent marriage and may your days with your lovely bride be long and happy.
Yes, I think the days of accusing everybody of racism are over, I truly do.
We should all listen to TRUEBLACKMAN. He is a very conservative BLACK man. May his tribe increase.
