Obama the great "uniter" indeed! So I guess we all can't just "get along"? LOL!

What a crock this whole bunch is! But of course we have known that all along.

Derrick Bell (((ping)))!

Whites are racist because, well, they just have to be!

The more complaints I hear about racism, the less I care.

Obama has helped to lead this country down..... to a place wherein if you are not Black, you are a racist. I am stuck with my white skin, so I am now a racist.

I like good people, I don’t like bad people. I like law abiding folks, I hate crooks. I respect conservatives and I have nothing but disgust for libs. I like people who believe in God, but I don’t like even being around the “holier-than-thou” pew jumpers. I love patriots and I hate traitors. I love apple pie, but I hate broccoli so much that it pi$$es me off any time that vile weed is in my house.

I guess I have lots of things I like and dislike—love and hate, but it’s never been about skin color.... heck, I think dark skin actually looks very good.

Unfortunately, I am white, I bow to no man, I can be very outspoken, even reckless with my disregard to PC speak.... all resulting in me being a racist.

I would wish I wasn’t white so I wouldn’t have to be a racist, but I’m not sure what color to choose.

I guess I would want the color that came with the thickest skin, then maybe, just maybe, I wouldn’t have to spend my life crying about my color.

It’s not about the color of a man’s skin, it’s about how thick it is.

Derrick Bell seems to have had very thin skin....

If the hussein presidency has done anything, it’s showed us who the REAL racists are in this country. Screw the liberal white guilt trips.

Dang right it does. And have you ever seen a black dude that looked horrible with a shaved head? It's not fair, I tell you.

LMAO.... I shaved my head once. My wife hated it, I hated it and my kids were horrified. I had to wear a cap for a month. I looked like I had escaped from a mental institution. ;>)

Do you feel like getting your brain scrambled? Google “Critical Race Theory”, formulated by Derrick Bell and others. What is really scary is that this guy is a close pal with the Bamster, and has been a professor at prominent law schools.

I had a black guy who worked for me about 20 years ago. He was an articulate manager whom I thought was totally color-blind, and whom was treated from a color-blind perspective.
For years things went well until at a company function, he made an unwanted pass at a female employee who made a formal complaint.

While he admitted to his inappropriate behavior, this color-blind employee, whom everyone liked and respected, all of a sudden threw down the race card and claimed he was being treated unfairly due to being black.

I’ve heard from many others that those who are the least suspected of having a racial bone in their bodies, will throw down the race card when they are found to be in violation of any policies or procedures that could jeopardize their employment.

Had a liberal friend who attended Harvard Law in the late ‘80s. He was reading.... drumroll please... Critical Legal Theory.

Yup, brain-scrambling is right. He gave me stuff to read, but it was indecipherable and unbearable.

I asked my BIL, a law school dean at a Catholic College, what it was all about.”Oh, it’s just Marxist gobbledygook.”

A PJMedia article this morning showed footage of Michelle protesting for Bell at Harvard in ‘88, the year she graduated. Obama attended harvard from 88-91, and we have footage of him in 91 supporting Bell also.

Now, tell me what are the chances that two blacks at a minority black law school, who rallied in support of the same black radical professor, did not know each other at the time? By my reckoning, it’s an impossibility.

The story about them meeting by chance when they just happened to get jobs at the same law firm after Barack graduated is horsecrap. They must have known each other from their black radical associations at Harvard, and then Michelle either helped Barry get his job, or they both got their jobs through the same connections.

Nice little rant.

Couldn't agree more.

Where White/Asian/Indian Culture holds education, self-discipline, and personal accomplishments in high esteem; the Black Culture holds violence, ignorance and 'thuggery' as an objective of worship.
