I imagine by now that most people here have had a chance to listen to the statement made by Charles Sherrod (as displayed in a YouTube video, "Charles Sherrod And His Uncle Toms" that "we must stop the white man and his Uncle Toms from stealing our elections."
This statement brings several thoughts to mind, namely:
Who made Charles Sherrod the decider for who is and isn't an uncle tom?
Would he have the right to say that blacks must adhere to a certain political worldview or otherwise they are an uncle tom?
How could Charles Sherrod's words help to increase that which liberals say that they are for, specifically, fostering an environment of diversity of thought?
How do those words help to decrease black-on-black racism? It would seem that those words would inflame black-on-black racism?
Couldn't those words of his increase the odds of blacks being ostracized within their communities if they adhered to or pursued a worldview that had been branded by him or others as being uncle tomish?
If he felt that the white man was stealing "their" elections with the help of uncle toms, was he hypocritically doing unto blacks that did not share his worldview what he felt the white man and their uncle toms had done to him?
This clown is a bigger racist than his wife.
“Who Made Charles Sherrod The Decider Of Who Is And Isn’t An Uncle Tom?”
Short answer: Marx, Lenin and Stalin.
Aunt Jemima
>>Short answer: Marx, Lenin and Stalin.
Actually, no- it was Adorno and Horkheimer, the inventors of left identity politics.
As with Charles Sherrod, some folks are just born bigots regardless of their color.
Blacks seem MUCH more racist, and in far higher percentages, than whites. I do not know ANY white bigots, but of the blacks I see on TV way over half of them are devoted racists.
I want reparations!

Beat me to it. Except, I wasn't going to "hold the Mao"...
“Beat me to it. Except, I wasn’t going to “hold the Mao”...”
ROFLMAO!
Thanks.
And this huge story never gets any coverage. Rush’s 24/7 had this unearthed video of the racist, Charles Sherrod on it and nobody plays it. What does Coulter think of it? FoxNews won’t show it, I’ve written them about it after they went ga ga over Shirley Sherrod and made her into this racist heroin and could not believe Coulter saying that her speech was actually beautiful. A racist does not change its spots.
