I know this story is written from the lefty POV, but it is a tremendous indictment of that "culture" and shows conclusively how "race trumps all" and how any criticism is perceived as "racist."

They usually aren't so open in admitting it.

race trumps all

Of course it does the only real question is when will whites stand up against it?

Not much hope for change until the bums are thrown out.

“race trumps all”

Exactly right! Any none black who doesn’t believe it is naive.

I don't think it's so much a matter of "whites standing up against it" as a matter of whites ignoring it. Far too many whites are self-loathing. They have bought into the collective, multi-generational guilt that they have been taught by the hucksters.

When they lose that defensiveness and look at each situation for what it is then the hucksters will lose their power.

Try buying food and gasoline with empathy.

Exactly wrong!

This is a myopic assessment. If race does trump all, how do you explain all the capable, charismatic black conservatives getting the cold shoulder from the black voters?
No, it's much worse than "race trumps all" It's "Ideology trumps all"

Can we really be surprised?

Look at the politicians that are elected in most black cities. Many are addicts and outright crooks.

Don’t you just love that blacks actually believe this fake understands what they go through? He has and still lives a privileged life. I guess I don’t understand the stupidity of the collective black mind set.

I’d take that one step farther and say that color trumps all, including race.

This is true. Some of my relatives still support Obama and won’t hear a negative thing about him. Now they will be a little critical of his gay marriage support but they still think he’s the best evah.

Its Obama worship.

Obama has shared exactly NONE of the “American black experience,” which is why he needs at all times to be calling attention to his suntan in order to distract the poor fools who voted for him. He is only half black, and that of unclear origin, and had a privileged white or foreign upbringing that has nothing in common with the “black experience.”

But he would never have won office if he had not had that extra dose melanin that kept him from being examined too closely because of the white guilt vote. Now that it is clear that that the country is falling apart on every level, it’s the thing he’s relying on to distract people and keep his devoted black base - who are disproportionately powerful in this country - fired up and distracted from the fact that they have never done worse in the last 40 years.

Nah. Cosby was never a communist, I think. Morgan Freeman probably neither.

It’s color trums everything. For *some* people.

thoroughly disgusted at my family

I actually heard someone say at a gathering that they switched from Bush voting to Obama Because he has SWAGGER. And everyone nodded their head in agreement.

Except for me of course. Rather than ruining a family thing with a political argument I simply moved to another part of the house.

But this is where we are now... Otherwise SANE and Articulate people are falling into this spell over this guy. It really brings to mind the ‘Great Deception’ mentioned in the bible.

2 Thessalonians 2:11-17
So God will send great deception upon them, and they will believe all these lies. Then they will be condemned for not believing the truth and for enjoying the evil they do.

There are many supposedly smart blacks like Colon Powell who one would think could use their own brain, but place a black in front of him and he goes into brain-race lock.

Racism is fine with blacks as long as it is their racism. I watched a n interview yesterday where this woman claimed blacks cannot be racist because they do not have power.
What an idiot. Racism is not about power, it’s about hate.

Black people hate white people. Not only in America, but all over the world. Every country with a black in it has them pissing and moaning and causing problems.

For most blacks, the US is Jonestown. They will drink the poisoned cool aid knowing it will kill them.

Cosby was never a conservative; many years ago, he was reported to have removed a bust of Lincoln saying something to the effect of "What did he ever do for us?"
As for Freeman, he probably is a communist.

That aside, name me the last black conservative that was supported by the black vote over a white liberal. No, neither can I.
I'll make it easier. Name me any black conservative that was supported over a white liberal.

As someone who often works closely with black people, it says to me that they are so emotionally damaged - their entire culture is so distorted - that it’s all really hopeless. The people I know are intelligent, creative, accomplished - they seem to inhabit our world - but they are really living in bizzaro world.
