Might explain the line in the song “Space lord”
“If I don’t get my bath I take it out on the slaves”

Actually, I would pay space aliens to take Obama off our hands! That would do more to reduce the deficit that selling otherwise innocent black folks.

It is easy to visualize the young Hussein smoking dope while watching that movie, and hear him mumbling “right on, right on”.

I read that story, a long time ago in college. What Bell and others don’t get, is that it is the Liberal/Statists who would sell all the black Americans to the aliens in exchange for all they offered.
True Conservatives believe in individual rights and that the state exists to preserve the rights of the individual, rather that in the individual existing to serve the good of the state, and would find such a deal abhorrent, and unconstitutional.

“Breitbart.com’s Joel Pollak labored to explain why the late professor was so offensive”...and that critical problem made the whole segment look lame and made the Breitbart people look lame...I sure hope they can get their act together before releaseing more videos.

One of the most interesting stories regarding ‘blacks’ and space travel is in the MARTIAN CHRONICLES, called ‘The shoe on the other foot’.

It’s a little known fact that the aliens actually provided blues artist Huddie Leadbetter with the idea for one of his most well known songs.
When Leadbetter asked the aliens where they were taking all the negroes, they answered “to them old cottonfields back home”.

We don’t have to pay them, all we need to do is to send him back if he has a warrantee.

I thought this was going to be about the
Old Negro Space Program (some raunchy language). It's a much shorter film.

LOL, never thought I’d see “Buffalo Butt” turn out to be an astronaut.

Hey, the aliens aren’t stupid; they wouldn’t take ‘em at any price.
