“For over 19 years, I have introduced H.R. 40 — not to spark controversy or promote division — but to direct attention to a historical wrong that warrants substantial consideration....”

I have never owned a slave, therefore, I owe nothing, Keith. Or should I call you Keith X Ellison, you remember that from your college days, don’tcha Keith ? You know, those fun days of passing out literature from Calypso Louie Farrakhan ? You remember that, Keith ? I do.

Al Franken, this dope, and Jesse Ventura....What happened to Minnesota ? The people up there are so nice. I don’t get it.

Certainly didn’t expect this fellow to utter the truth. Which he obviously didn’t. How utterly predictable . . .

And the life of a North American slave versus the tropical Negroes left behind

Does anyone even bother to examine this?

Rep. Ellison say "And it may help to realize that we were not the only ones disempowered. For instance, could poor southern Whites have been paid more if not for slavery? They probably could have. The only reason they accepted such low wages was because they were in direct competition with slave labor.

Uhmmmm . . . wonder what his stand is on illegal immigration? I fail to see to the difference.

Hey Ellison, you asshole, pick a better country. Better yet you stupid Saracen bastard, hop a plane to Saudi Arabia and taken up the reparations bit with the Saudis.

Give them the reparations on condition that all affirmative action programs for blacks immediately end.

I’ll bet this guy also claims that the Egyptians were black. If so I’ll give him that but then he has to give me this: his people held my people in slavery for over 400 years and it took a number of acts of God to set us free and even then his people tried to chase us down to re-enslave us. So his people need to pay us reparations with 4,000 years worth of compound interest to boot. Or his people could just call it even and get off of their “Give-Me” fat butts and go about the business of fending for themselves.

If reparations are owed to the descendants of slaves so be it. Let’s establish a figure to be paid, say, 100 trillion dollars. Now let’s make sure all descendants get a fair share. Since it is prudent to allow for any exigency, let us safely assume there will be another 100 trillion generations of descendants. Therefore let’s split one dollar among each generation of descendants.

Rush's (black)guest host Walter E. Williams....

Writing for the Chattanooga Free Press, Walter Williams, an economics professor at George Mason University, agrees with the foreign correspondent, now based in Jakarta. “Assuming I would have been born anyway,” Williams wrote, “my wealth and my liberties . . . are greater as a result of being born in the United States than they would be in any country in Africa. In other words, while slavery was a brutal institution, I can be thankful for its results.”

There's not one person alive today that is/was a slave.

To any black....Get your a** going. Actually FINISH school, stop doing drugs, passing on aids, making babies but not "fathering", living off "the system"....etc etc...

Why take my money because someone else is too lazy to take care of themselves. I am not a racist like Jackson or Sharpton.

Never owned a slave, and don’t know if any of my ancestors did either.

Blessings,Bobo

I’m old enough to remember a time when you could go to a nice restaurant, and see no black people. This is certainly not true today. What’s more, we see blacks and whites dining together. We see black males and white females together. Lately, we’ve begun to see black females and white males together. Blacks are successfully penetrating the upper income strata.

It’s interesting to me how even the criminal element has integrated, as we see when mug shots show up in our local paper.

Heck, family reunions are no longer mono-toned.

Ellison and others with a stake in maintaining the blacks-as-victims-of-whites meme are stating things as they wish they were, not as they are.

Oh, and we have a black President.

If Ellison wants reparations for black people...

MOLON LABE.

I routinely see people who are capable of working living in 900 dollar a month HUD apartments, who allow their shiftless baby daddies to shack up in these TAXPAYER paid for apartments that anyone would be proud to have, and we still have disabled vets trying to get housing?

It is so upside down.

‘We Were Held In Slavery Longer Than We’ve Been Free’

If true, will you be heading to Africa to shakedown the tribes that enslaved your distant forefathers?
