Ok I had seen this clip before some time ago, but I did not know that Oprah actually played this crazy clip on her show AND the white folks in the audience actually applauded at the end.
You mean white folks are actually that guilt ridden to watch this and say to themselves “gee we is some fucked up people, shame on us”
Oh man liberal white folks are hilarious.

This from the blog Ankle Biting Pundit… amazing

“I thought it couldn’t be any worse that Linda Chavez claiming that those of us who oppose the Amnesty bill as racists. But that was before Commerce Secretary Louis Gutierrez, a big supporter of this disgraceful bill, made the following statement.”

Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez, said that failure to pass the bill would hurt the economy. “We will see rotting fruit” in the fields, Mr. Gutierrez said. “We will see lawns that don’t get cared for. We will see patients who don’t get cared for.”

I’m glad I cut my own damm grass, see what you lazy white folks have done, potential crabgrass and dandelions everywhere, a lawn Nazis like myself worst nightmare!!

Reid labels military leader ‘incompetent’ 

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid called Marine Gen. Peter Pace, the outgoing chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, “incompetent” during an interview Tuesday with a group of liberal bloggers, a comment that was never reported.

Reid made similar disparaging remarks about Army Gen. David Petraeus, the top U.S. commander in Iraq, said several sources familiar with the interview.

This is but the latest example of how Reid, under pressure from liberal activists to do more to stop the war, is going on the attack against President Bush and his military leaders in anticipation of a September showdown to end U.S. involvement in Iraq, according to Democratic senators and aides.

From Mediabistro.com, funny, you know all of those Negros look alike, LOL!

“As anchor Charles Gibson teased a Tuesday World News story, about DC administrative law judge Roy Pearson’s $54 million lawsuit against a Korean family’s Washington, DC dry cleaning establishment over losing a pair of his pants, viewers saw video of what clearly appeared to be ex-DC Mayor Marion Barry,” NewsBusters says.

ABC quickly apologized. “We immediately recognized the error and corrected all subsequent feeds of the broadcast,” ABCNews.com says. “We are deeply sorry for this mistake and apologize to Mr. Barry, Mr. Pearson, and to our viewers for the error.”

Although Marion Barry is hardly worthy of an apology and this idiot filing this bullshit lawsuit is a crazy ass nigga, this was not a “harmless” mistake.

Broadcast networks claim they work overtime to make sure their news broadcasts are “correct and accurate.”
People who work in this trade are a bunch of anal retentive types who closely monitor shit like this. How the fuck do you mistake Marion “bitch set me up” Marion with this Pearson dude?
Do MSNBC, Fox and now ABC all have idiot (white) interns edit their broadcasts?

No wonder they make so many fucken mistakes, particularly when it comes to identifying darkies on the air. Damm!

Ok this is funny.
I have access to TV and I usually have some sort of news on while listening to Rush.
I checking out Fox News and most of the morning and there is this story about this Girl fight that was posted to You Tube (since removed) two teens (white girls) fighting over some thug ass black dude.

This is a clip with one of the girls in the video with her dad.
Now as you will see the dad is more outraged over the video being posted to You Tube as oppose to trying to figure out why his daughter would be hanging out with a bunch of thug ass felons.

I love how the Fox anchor babes are acting like they are outraged as well but the clip of this has been playing on Fox all morning long dozens and dozens of times even during news teases.

I don’t know if it was getting as much play on any other channel ( I did watch MSNBC for over 90 min, did not see)  but I just loved how the Fox anchor babe said “I hope they pull this off of you tube” while they continue to play over and over.

During a speech in Bedford, New Hampshire Rudy Giuliani unveiled something he calls “The Twelve Commitments” which, not surprisingly, is a list of 12 things Rudy says he is committed to doing as president.

Reading crap like this puts me in a pissy mood, because obviously political candidates continue to think the majority of voters are morons.

Shit I guess we should just clip out this list and take it to the voting booth.

My rant below is not specifically about Rudy, but politicians in general, just feel like venting.

1. I will keep America on offense in the Terrorists’ War on Us.

Hmmm no problem, but let us read more.

2. I will end illegal immigration, secure our borders, and identify every non-citizen in our nation. BULLSHIT.

We can’t get the current congress to do one simple thing when it comes to illegal immigration, BUILD A DAMM WALL. We are not enforcing existing laws, bottom line there is no way anyone’s going to “end illegal immigration” in this country, let alone “identify every non-citizen in our nation. So my question for Rudy is what the hell are you talking about?

3. I will restore fiscal discipline and cut wasteful Washington spending. BULLSHIT

Any presidential candidate that promises that is a fucken liar. The members of Congress are masters at hiding political pork in every bill they touch as long as we have these corrupt bastards in congress there isn’t a damm thing Rudy or any other so-called candidate can do about “wasteful spending”

4. I will cut taxes and reform the tax code. HMMM

Sounds good on the surface, but until serious flat tax legislation or serious talk about tax code reform is forwarded this is a pipe dream. The IRS needs to be blown up, but that ain’t happening too many jobs are tied to people being screwed by the IRS.

5. I will impose accountability on Washington. BULLSHIT

Sounds like a fucken micromanager, you are running for president not king idiot!

I’m just thinking (and that is hard for me, LOL!) Who wrote this drivel to for this dude? How does a president do that exactly?

6. I will lead America towards energy independence. BULLSHIT

The environmental lobby is one of the biggest obstacles in obtaining this so-called goal of “energy independence” Huge oil reserves are on our own soil and in case some of you have forgot, we have not even build a refinery plant in the U.S. since 1976! Why, because of environmentalist.
Alternative energy resources are squashed because of big money corrupting sources, something a president can’t do a damm thing about.
We have scams like “global warming” leading to scams like carbon offsets that further screw this process up.

7. I will give Americans more control over, and access to, healthcare with affordable and portable free-market solutions. BULLSHIT

8. I will increase adoptions, decrease abortions, and protect the quality of life for our children. BULLSHIT, A PRESIDENT CAN’T DO THAT.

What is dude going to do, go visit Tiller the Baby Killer himself and hold a gun to his head to stop him from performing abortions?
Or is he going to pay visits to skanks across that nation and shame them into not having abortions? Who is he kidding.

9. I will reform the legal system and appoint strict constructionist judges. BULLSHIT, CODEWORD.

This is just to make anti-abortion folks more receptive to him, Rudy is a Margaret Sanger fan. He is not fooling anybody.

10. I will ensure that every community in America is prepared for terrorist attacks and natural disasters. BULLSHIT, A PRESIDENT CAN’T DO THAT.

The Federal government is broke and can’t take care of meeting the needs of law enforcement resources around the nation now, how could he possible do that?

11. I will provide access to a quality education to every child in America by giving real school choice to parents. BULLSHIT, A PRESIDENT CAN’T DO THAT

The most powerful political lobbyists are the teachers unions and school choice is not on their agenda.

12. I will expand America’s involvement in the global economy and strengthen our reputation around the world. SCARY.

No doubt that Rudy would back that stupid Mexico superhighway and free trade project that RHINO’s are trying to back door around Americans, Plez!

DELCAMBRE, La. (AP) - Sag your britches somewhere else, this Cajun-country town has decided.
Mayor Carol Broussard said he would sign an ordinance the town council approved this week setting penalties of up to six months in jail and a $500 fine for being caught in pants that show undergarments or certain parts of the body.Broussard said he has nothing against saggy pants but thinks people who wear them should use discretion. “It’s gotten way out of hand out here,” he said.

Albert Roy, the councilman who introduced the ordinance, said he thought the fine was a little steep and should be more in the $25 range, but he still favored the measure.

“I don’t know if it will do any good, but it won’t hurt,” Roy said. “It’s obvious, and anybody with common sense can see your parts when you wear sagging pants.”

Broussard’s advice for people who like their pants to hang low: “Just wear it properly. Cover your vital parts. I mean, if you expose your private parts, you’ll get a fine. If you walk up and your pants drop, you get a fine. They’re better off taking the pants off and just wearing a dress.”

***

I must say this is one of the most retarded fads I have ever seen.
I know some people may bitch and complain that we should not be regulating what or how people should wear clothes, but dudes who think that this is somehow cool is clearly not very bright.
 I’m just one black guy who has always believed that black folks have a hard enough time getting ahead in this society as it is, so I just don’t get why so many black folks, and in particular young black men seem to draw the proverbial bulls-eye on themselves.
This is just the long and never ending saga of ghetto minstrel behavior and how it affects black folks.
But silly Snoop, “it’s the white man who symbolically pull our pants down everyday”

Now this is funny as hell, but brilliant also!

As part of a military effort to develop non-lethal weapons, the proposal suggested, “One distasteful but completely non-lethal example would be strong aphrodisiacs, especially if the chemical also caused homosexual behavior.”

The documents show the Air Force lab asked for $7.5 million to develop such a chemical weapon.

“The Ohio Air Force lab proposed that a bomb be developed that contained a chemical that would cause enemy soliders to become gay, and to have their units break down because all their soldiers became irresistably attractive to one another,” Hammond said after reviwing the documents.

The Pentagon did not approve funding for this “weapon”; it was just a proposal like lots of other proposals.

I’m not sure, would the Gay Rights folks be pissed off at hearing about this or would that be like…hey…

Rivals try to deflate F. Thompson campaign

This is funny!

Was watching the news when a story about this new cell phone services Spoofcard.com

Selling points on the site:

SpoofCard calling cards offers you the ability to change what someone sees on their caller ID display when they receive a phone call.
Key Benefits: Make calls truly private, Ability to record calls, Change your voice, Fun and inexpensive, Easy to use and fast to set up!

Ya know this world and our society is already fucked up, I don’t have to editorialize to you people what scam artists, criminals, pedophiles, vindictive people will use this site for.

I’m just dumbfounded that this is even legal and unlike dude below I don’t think this shit is the least bit funny.

Check out the story clip.

“So far I have…………………..

Pranked a friend in the Army, and told him that I was from the (lets just say a government intelligence agency) and that if he didn’t quit using government property to surf for animal porn he would be reported to his superiors,and demoted in rank, and possibly even receive a dishonorable discharge. ( I made sure to leave the automated switchboard # for that agency on his caller ID just in case he called it to verify)

I’ve called Republicans and tried to get them to convert to the Democratic party and vice versa.

I’ve ordered Domino’s pizza from the Pizza Hut ID

I’ve called friends when they were home sleeping at 3AM. I called their cells and made their home number show up on caller ID, using the spooky male voice I’d say, “lean over and look under the bed”……. They SHIT when they thought someone was in the house with them!!

April Fools Day, I called my own mother while she was at work, making her own home phone # show up on the caller ID. Using the spooky male voice I pretended to be a burglar and inventory the nice things in her house that I was going to steal. The real clicher was when I named the new TV she had bought that same day and told her it was still in the original box sitting in the middle of the living room. She hung up on me! I had to immediately dial her right back in the normal fashion and say “April Fools”. She would hardly let me speak, she kept cutting me off saying, “I call you back, I need to call the police. Someone is in my damn house”.

Once I even used it for a vengeful purpose. A guy I hated at work…… lets just say his boss got a prank call from him (using the male voice and acting drunk) and left a very very nasty message on his bosses answering machine. He couldn’t deny it. He looked like a schmuck and a liar no matter what he said because there is no possible way to deny your own caller ID with a time/date stamp on the box. (unless you know about the spoofcard) He only lasted about another week at work, until they came up with a sufficient reason to fire him. LET IT BE KNOWN, YOU DON’T MAKE PASSES AT A GUYS GIRLFRIEND! ESPECIALLY IF HE KNOWS THE POWER OF THE SPOOFCARD!

And last but not least, I even used the “POWER” for a good purpose before also. My brother caught his son (my nephew) dabbleing with selling weed. Of course the next day my nephew gets a mysterious call on his cell from a guy saying “we’re watching your every move! And we know about the dope sales.” When he summons up the nerve to call the number to see who it was……..Low & Behold………it’s the non-emergency number to the local Sherriff’s Department. He’s since gone the way of the straight and narrow. So I have to admit my nephews future was well worth the $10 I paid for the spoofcard……….and I even had 58 minutes left to harrass my buddies!

LET’S HEAR YOUR ADVENTURES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

No worries for me because I don’t live on my cell phone and except for calls from Mrs. Snoop, work and my daughters and I don’t many cell calls.
I sure as hell don’t have my bank in my phone, but anybody that still does not get that your bank would NEVER ever call you about a bank matter on your cell phone will be the prime targets of this type of service.
Just one more reason to be skeptical of the world around you.

Don’t say Snoop didn’t warn ya.

Although most Americans believe they know what brought down the World Trade Center twin towers on Sept. 11, 2001, civil engineers are still seeking answers to questions that could save lives in the future.

Structural engineers need to know from a scientific perspective what happened to the buildings during the terrorist attacks in order to prevent future failures. The search for answers continues with the help of a state-of-the-art animated visualization created by researchers at Purdue University.

I’m a day late on this….anywho in case you missed it.

A New York town will pay six illegal day laborers $550,000 and forbid its police department from checking suspects’ immigration status to settle a discrimination lawsuit that claims the men were harassed because they are Hispanic.

The case stems from a much-needed police crackdown on disruptive and violent loitering in a public park in Mamaroneck, a town of about 20,000 residents located some two dozen miles from New York City. Multiple complaints of hundreds of drunken men fighting, littering, urinating and defecating at the park’s makeshift day laborer hiring site led to police to shut it down.

A Latino rights group sued the town alleging that the illegal immigrants’ constitutional rights to assemble and exercise free speech were violated. The suit also accuses village officials of discriminating against the day laborers—all admitted illegal aliens who didn’t use their real name in court documents for fear of deportation—simply because they are Hispanic.

Mayor Philip Trifiletti, a defendant in the case, said he was simply taking a totally out of control situation and bringing it under control. “They were trashing our village and they were trashing our park,” the mayor said when the case went to court last year.

A White Plains federal judge named Colleen McMahon sided with the illegal immigrants ruling in November that police had deliberately harassed the day laborers because they were Hispanic. In her decision Judge McMahon actually wrote that “the fact that the day laborers were Latinos, and not whites, was, at least in part, a motivating factor in defendants’ actions.”

Besides the hefty cash sum, this week’s settlement includes specific prohibitions on what the judge considers police misconduct and discriminatory behavior towards illegal immigrants. Now officers cannot even tell workers to “move on” as they solicit on the streets or leave the place where they are standing unless there is an actual violation of New York law concerning disorderly conduct.

Because it’s a federal court-approved settlement, this case could very well have nationwide implications regarding millions of illegal day laborers who solicit work on public streets and parks around the country.

This video was not up yesterday, this was the clip from MSNBC with this dude lying about who was on the final credits and talking about some conspiracy theories.
I added the credits to this clip, so if you keep reading crap about who was in the final credits you know now that was bullshit.

In five years, we built the Hoover Dam. From 1931 to 1936, the Colorado River was diverted with tunnels blasted into the Black Canyon walls, a town was built to house a small army of workers laboring in the desert, and 3 1/4 million cubic yards of concrete were poured into a dam reaching 726 1/2 feet high — two years ahead of schedule.

It’s hard to look back at this monumental effort without a feeling of envy. The dam was completed on the backs of desperate men during the Great Depression, but from this remove, it looks like an apotheosis of the can-do spirit. Who believes we could do something similar today, that political bickering, governmental bungling, Occupational Safety and Health Administration regulations, lawsuits and environmental objections wouldn’t make such a project all but impossible?

In the 1930s, the Empire State Building was built in 410 days; more than five years after 9/11, the World Trade Center site still features a gaping hole. It might be the fate of President Bush to be remembered as the emblem of an Age of Cynicism, when — despite many encouraging economic and social indicators — we experienced a deep public funk, driven by the feeling that government couldn’t be trusted to do anything, at least not well.

It didn’t take long after Rep. William Jefferson (D-La.) was indicted on 16 counts of bribery and related charges for the Congressional Black Caucus to rally to his defense.

The collective outcry from that group is that one is presumed innocent until found guilty, and we as a group have to stand by our troubled colleague.

Of course the fact that their troubled colleague was hoarding $90,000 in his refrigerator seemed to not cause grave concern among other Black Caucus members.

I’m sorry to say this, but once again, we are seeing reflexive action based on a feeling of solidarity fueled by victimhood.

By backing — rather than shunning — Rep. Jefferson, a message is being sent by other Black Caucus members that underscores a commonality of working up from humble roots to succeed in this racist society trumps any attested or even convicted bad behavior on the part of one who has stumbled.

I’ve seen this pattern before — in the reflexive urge on the part of some to defend other African-American politicians accused of graft. This pattern even goes beyond politics: the widespread and survey-tested belief in some quarters that O.J. was being railroaded by a racist court system.

Or what about overlooking of gangsta behavior and attitude among culturally influential hip-hoppers- whose actions are far more lastingly harmful to the urban commonweal than sick language by Don Imus or Michael Richards?

Yet in the pantheon of this reflexive defense of the accused, the issue of Rep. Jefferson’s affluent refrigerator pisses me off the most.

Keep in mind that Rep. Jefferson represents New Orleans — a jurisdiction that since that evil wind blew through, ain’t the same.

I have to wonder what that 90K allegedly in Rep. Jefferson’s fridge would have bought at least a few of his now homeless, jobless, or unwillingly relocated constituents? What type of message does that send to black AND white constituents that not only doesn’t your government care, but while you are hurting your Congressman seems to have other, infinitely more self-directed priorities?

Rep. Jefferson, if these charges are true, than you are the racist. A racist against your own constituency.

Oh, but that is so inappropriate to accuse him of. If Rep. Jefferson in fact had an affluent refrigerator filled with bribe money, it must have been because coming up through a racist South ticked off the establishment so much that they stuffed his fridge and offered other inducements.

While you are presumed innocent until proven guilty, I would think a more authentic position on the part of the Congressional Black Caucus would have been to shun Rep. Jefferson up until he was cleared. After all, he came up in struggling times.

But wait a minute. What was funding source for these other illegal inducements Rep. Jefferson is accused of hoarding?

Nigeria? Nah, couldn’t have been. Just goes to show you, racists and frustrated colonialists will take any chance to smear the government of a free African nation.

Must have been a Klansman who did it.

Found this on the blog Ace of Spades He blasts the first Bush here for ignoring Iraq’s extensive terrorism connections and unending drive to get an atomic bomb. All I can say is wow!

Here is another clip, just as a reminder to you Clinton Fans or should I say the “Bush Lied” crowd

Found via Right Wing News.

Today is the 20 year anniversary of Reagan’s famous speech calling for Gorbachev to “Tear down this wall!” Here’s part of the speech, including those legendary words, on video,

Here is a clip from Meet the Press with the two authors.

That little game of political chicken Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton played during the Senate vote on the Iraq spending bill Thursday night would not have surprised you if you had read Her Way, the new book by New York Times investigative reporters Jeff Gerth and Don Van Natta, Jr. which I’ve just finished.

Neither Clinton nor Obama were on the Senate floor when the voting began. Sources tell me that Obama was holding off to see if Hillary would go first. When it was clear she wouldn’t, and time was running out on the vote, he headed into the chamber and voted no. Less than a minute later, Clinton barreled in and did the same.

It was yet another example of her instinct for “followership.” Anyone willing to bet that if Obama had voted yes, Hillary would still have voted no?

The idea that Clinton is all tactics and calculation — and would rather stick her finger in the air to see which way the political wind is blowing than actually take the lead on something — is painstakingly documented in Her Way. Forget the stuff about Monica, Gennifer Flowers, Vince Foster, Hillary’s record as a lawyer, or the Clintons’ 20-year plan for both of them to become president. The money chapters are the ones on Iraq. When it comes to Hillary’s shape-shifting stances, explanations, and votes on the war, Gerth and Van Natta offer a definitive and chilling portrait of a politician solely driven by political expedience — even when it comes to life and death matters such as Iraq.

It’s a portrait that will likely prove to be an anvil around her neck throughout the 2008 campaign, unless she can somehow transform herself from political weather vane to political leader.

Reading Her Way doesn’t leave one optimistic that this will happen any time soon. Clinton’s serial manipulations, prevarications, rationalizations, and calculations on the war are laid out chapter and verse. Literally. Starting with her vote authorizing President Bush to use military force against Iraq.

On the campaign trail, Clinton has said again and again that she cast her vote based on the best available intelligence. But Gerth and Van Natta show that, according to all evidence, Hillary did not actually read the “best available intelligence” on the war before the invasion — the full, 90-page classified version of the National Intelligence Estimate — even though Sen. Bob Graham, then chairman of the Intelligence Committee, had, according to the book, “implored his colleagues to do so before casting such a monumental vote.” (After reading the full report, Graham voted against the war.)

Found this on Hot Air: Video: Bush’s watch stolen while meeting crowd in Albania; U.S. embassy denies.

(From Fox News) TIRANA, Albania — Whatever happened to the president’s watch?

One moment President George W. Bush was glad-handing Albanians on Sunday, proudly sporting a watch with a dark strap on his left wrist. Moments later, it was gone.

Did it fall off? Did one of his bodyguards remove it? Or did one of the crowd artfully slip it off his wrist and pocket it?

The United States Embassy in Albania on Tuesday emphatically denied that Bush’s watch was stolen during his visit to the country, where he was acclaimed as a hero.

The Albanian media — and international Web sites — is buzzing with video showing Bush’s wrist watch apparently disappearing while he was shaking hands with people in Fushe Kruje, 15 miles north of Tirana.

“What the local media is saying is absolutely not true,” an embassy official, who declined to be named, said.

People waiting on the sidewalks on Sunday gave Bush a rapturous welcome, shaking hands with him, grabbing him by the arms and wrists, reaching out to embrace him and even ruffling his hair.

Bush was clearly delighted by the attention and plunged back into the crowd for more hand shaking and to be kissed on the cheek.

An Albanian bodyguard who accompanied Bush in the town told The Associated Press he had seen one of his U.S. colleagues close to Bush bend down and pick up the watch.

The Top Channel private TV station showed how one of his bodyguards may have talked to the president and then taken the watch from his hand.

Bush’s visit to the tiny Balkan country, the first ever by a U.S. president, was considered as historic.

I have said over and over and will continue to say it. If women continue to decline morally, spiritually and intellectually they will of course raise morally bankrupt, spiritually void and most of all really stupid skank daughters.
As Ms. Curtis points out the mothers of skanks like Lohan, Hilton and Spears themselves are skanks, so society should not expect any more or less from them.
Moms are the foundation of our society. Screwed up moms gives us the Paris’s of the world.

By Jamie Lee Curtis - Huffington Post

As the denouement of a really upsetting celebrity scandal came to its close, a tearful child pleaded to her mother… “Mom, it’s not right.”

It was a painful episode to watch. A young woman, begging her mother, the person who should have taught her right from wrong, to help her, to teach her the rules of life. It was a little too late. And so she wept as the Universe was bringing the teaching and settling the score.

I’m in no glass house. I understand only too well the pitfalls of maternal amnesia and denial. I am not throwing stones but merely a lifesaver, a buoy of sanity and understanding.

“My analyst told me, that I was right out of my head,” Joni Mitchell sang in the song “Twisted.” I was twisted. I am twisted. I am deluded that my attempts at being liked and loved by my children and friends with them — all at the same time — were going to result in “well raised children.” We were the generation that would take the job of raising our children and turn it into… PARENTING. We were the generation who applauded every move they made. Every step they took. “Good climbing, Brandon” was our hue and cry. We were raised by people who didn’t “understand” us and now we don’t “understand” why our children are so messed up.

It is a national epidemic. Omnipotent children running amok or sitting amok as they watch TV and play electronic games and shop on eBay.

The sad paths of the three most popular young women — privileged but from varying backgrounds, talented, beautiful and spectacular — have ended in prison, rehab and mental illness. I hope their mothers are worried sick and wondering, “What could I have done differently?” And our culture should be asking the same question too.

What we need to do is look long and hard at our part in all this. Where did our children get the message that the rules don’t apply to them? And where did we, the Mothers, get the message that if we abdicate our responsibilities as Mothers, the Universe will do our job for us? And it does, but without any of the love and tenderness and compassion that we could have given, along with the lessons.

Now it’s just the cold hard facts of a jail cell or the emptiness of a rehab room.

I’m not pointing fingers. I’m asking questions.

Can we take the wrenching sight of Paris asking her mother, “why?” and ask it of ourselves?

My analyst told me this: “Children are paparazzi. They take your picture mentally when you don’t want them to, when you don’t look good, and show it back to you in their behavior.”

Let’s hope that we all learn what is RIGHT and what is so WRONG.

Wake up, Mothers and smell the denial.

I was reading through some left leaning blogs and I saw a reference to this article entitled: R.I.P.- Immigration-bill autopsy in National Review.
The title on the lib tards blogs were : Black Women Want to be Maids in White Homes.

The part I post below is the tail end of the article but the lib tards are acting like this dude is making some racist statements and are highlighting some selective parts of the article to make some point, I was not clear on what that was.
I think what he says is perfectly legit and understandable in today’s immigration debate and how it affects blacks. 
Who knows, see what you think.

By John Derbyshire - National Review - Full Article Link 

In some offline conversations I’ve been having, and on some websites I’ll leave you to search out by yourself, the opinion has been expressed that some portion of America’s white elites welcome Hispanic immigration as a way of sticking it to American blacks. That portion, it is suggested, would prefer to have its lawns mowed by small, polite, brown people, rather than large, surly black ones, even if the price is the same in both cases.

I think there is something in that, but more than I have yet heard discussed.

Here’s a story. Saturday night, around 11 P.M., I was in Manhattan, walking with my daughter from Lincoln Center (where we had just seen the ABT’s new production of The Sleeping Beauty) to Penn Station for our ride back out to the burbs. At Columbus Circle we were followed for a while by one of the new pedicabs that are now allowed to ply for business in the city.

This pedicab seated two, so my daughter and I were prospective customers. The proprietor of the thing was a young black guy. Three or four times he called out to us, in a very friendly way, to take advantage of the service he was offering. He seemed like a cheerful and enterprising young man. He was on a loser with us though, as my daughter still finds it thrilling to just walk the streets of the city, and wanted to go on doing so. Off we walked, leaving him behind.

A hundred yards ahead I looked back. There he still was at the Circle, trying to get someone to ride in his pedicab. It shouldn’t have been difficult; the streets were pretty crowded; yet when at last I lost sight of him, he still hadn’t got a customer.

He’d got me noticing pedicabs, though. There seemed to be quite a lot of them, mostly occupied, mostly with young white guys pedaling. It occurred to me to wonder whether it’s harder for a black pedicabbie (?) to pick up passengers than for a white one. Not because people are scared to be pedaled by a black man — this was midtown Manhattan, for heaven’s sake, on a busy spring evening — but because white Americans just aren’t comfortable in such an obvious service relationship with a black American doing muscle work on their behalf.

Similarly, there are probably a lot of black American women who wouldn’t mind working as maids in prosperous white households, as used to be commonplace. I’m willing to bet, though, that there are large numbers of white people who would much rather not have a black maid. Not, again, because they fear a black maid would harm them, or be lazy or dishonest, but just because they would not feel comfortable in a master-servant relationship with a black person, after all the guilt-trip propaganda of the past 40 years.

What’s more, I think I’m one of those white people. Another story: Back in 1990 or 1991, living in London, I was walking across the interior space of Victoria Station, a major rail terminus. There was a shoeshine stand there in the middle of the concourse, operated by a lone black man who looked as if he could use some business. My shoes needed shining, I had five minutes to spare, so I negotiated a price, mounted his chair, and he started polishing.

And I started sweating. I felt really uncomfortable. It was irrational, I know, but I’m telling how it was. I got looks from people walking by, too — not friendly looks. See that black guy toiling away at the white man’s feet! Those were the looks — or, just as revealing, if in a different way, that was how I imagined them. I suspect that shoeshine guy didn’t get much business.

The shoeshine parlor at Manhattan’s Penn Station, which I visit frequently, is staffed entirely by Hispanics. As the current catch-phrase goes: I’m just sayin’.

Also from Right Wing News, cool stuff. I really hope Harry Reid sees this.

Mike Nolan coach of the San Francisco 49ers is actually being prevented by Reebok from wearing a business suit on the sidelines during NFL games.
He wants to pay respect to his dad and the coaches from earlier generations who wore suits on the sidelines.
This is another example of how commercialization has fuck up everything from Christmas to Fathers Day. Class and good taste is actually frowned upon. Every sports fan should tell Reebok to go fuck themselves and let the dude wear the suit.

SANTA CLARA — Reebok might be able to prevent Mike Nolan from wearing a suit on the 49ers’ sideline, but the sneaker giant is powerless to stop a stadium-load of fans from donning their Sunday best on game day.

Call it the Formalwear Revolution, which was sparked last week by an Internet zealot who read that Nolan wasn’t getting anywhere in his quest to permanently return the coat and tie to the NFL sideline. So “Ninerfan21″ made a modest proposal: Why don’t the 49ers’ fans show Reebok where to shove it by showing up to the team’s Sept. 10 home opener — a prime-time affair, mind you — dressed as businessmen? Since then, the idea has spread like chicken pox at summer camp.

And why not? It’s a creative way of sticking it to a faceless, multi-gazillion-dollar corporation that insists grown men coach football games as if they’re getting ready to run a 5K. It’s a lesson to all the kids out there: You don’t need lawsuits to settle disputes.

You just need suits.

And you have to believe that ESPN, which will air the opener, will have a field day with the concept. Every segue to a commercial — and Lord knows there will be a lot of them — will involve a throng of dapper Nolanites in button-down suits.

Finally, it’s a novel concept.

Back when Y.A. Tittle and Joe Perry were playing, the stands were filled with fans in tweed and fedoras. Since then, the fan look has moved away from Joseph Abboud and toward, say, Kid Rock. The suit and tie could become a San Francisco trademark, like cheeseheads in Green Bay or hog noses in D.C.

Tipped off that there’s a revolution afoot, Nolan laughed.

“I’ll say this,” he said, “I hope they do it for the same reason I’m doing it, which is out of respect for the league, the 49ers and to those who have done it in the past.”

Then he let the idea sink in.

“I like it,” he finally said. “It shows unity. I like that.”

Reebok admittedly pays a lot — $250 million — to be the NFL’s tailor, but it’s hard to imagine the sneaker company continuing to fight this and looking anything but venal and petty.

The suit, after all, is designed to make men look good.

Middle-aged men generally don’t belong in clothing designed for younger men, as anyone who witnessed Chicago Cubs manager Lou Piniella spilling out of his uniform last week can attest. (Apparently, the moniker “Sweet Lou” now applies to his favorite food group.) When Nolan and Jacksonville coach Jack Del Rio were permitted to wear Reebok-approved suits for two games last season, the experiment was considered a success. Despite heaps of positive reviews — and a lot of glowing press for Reebok — Nolan and his black suit only will be allowed to make two appearances again this year.

Reebok surely wants the issue to die, and despite having what seems to be a small army of public relations specialists, had a devil of a time returning phone calls on Monday.

Last year Nolan, too, seemed a bit embarrassed by all the attention paid to the suit debate. This season, however, he’s resolute in his quest.

The reason, he disclosed last week, is that the health of his father, former 49ers coach Dick Nolan, is deteriorating. The elder Nolan suffers from Alzheimer’s disease and last month was placed in an assisted living facility for patients suffering dementia. The 75-year-old Nolan also is fighting prostate cancer.

Dick Nolan coached alongside men such as Tom Landry and Hank Stram, in an era in which coaches wore suits on the sideline. The younger Nolan’s desire to do the same is an homage — a tip of the fedora, if you will — to the men who helped build the league and especially to his father.

It is for that reason that Nolan won’t let the issue go. And it is for that reason Reebok should give in.

Viva La Revolución!

The Toyota Prius has become the flagship car for those in our society so environmentally conscious that they are willing to spend a premium to show the world how much they care. Unfortunately for them, their ultimate ‘green car’ is the source of some of the worst pollution in North America; it takes more combined energy per Prius to produce than a Hummer.
Before we delve into the seedy underworld of hybrids, you must first understand how a hybrid works. For this, we will use the most popular hybrid on the market, the Toyota Prius.

The Prius is powered by not one, but two engines: a standard 76 horsepower, 1.5-liter gas engine found in most cars today and a battery- powered engine that deals out 67 horsepower and a whooping 295ft/lbs of torque, below 2000 revolutions per minute. Essentially, the Toyota Synergy Drive system, as it is so called, propels the car from a dead stop to up to 30mph. This is where the largest percent of gas is consumed. As any physics major can tell you, it takes more energy to get an object moving than to keep it moving. The battery is recharged through the braking system, as well as when the gasoline engine takes over anywhere north of 30mph. It seems like a great energy efficient and environmentally sound car, right?

You would be right if you went by the old government EPA estimates, which netted the Prius an incredible 60 miles per gallon in the city and 51 miles per gallon on the highway. Unfortunately for Toyota, the government realized how unrealistic their EPA tests were, which consisted of highway speeds limited to 55mph and acceleration of only 3.3 mph per second. The new tests which affect all 2008 models give a much more realistic rating with highway speeds of 80mph and acceleration of 8mph per second. This has dropped the Prius’s EPA down by 25 percent to an average of 45mpg. This now puts the Toyota within spitting distance of cars like the Chevy Aveo, which costs less then half what the Prius costs.

However, if that was the only issue with the Prius, I wouldn’t be writing this article. It gets much worse.

Building a Toyota Prius causes more environmental damage than a Hummer that is on the road for three times longer than a Prius. As already noted, the Prius is partly driven by a battery which contains nickel. The nickel is mined and smelted at a plant in Sudbury, Ontario. This plant has caused so much environmental damage to the surrounding environment that NASA has used the ‘dead zone’ around the plant to test moon rovers. The area around the plant is devoid of any life for miles.

The plant is the source of all the nickel found in a Prius’ battery and Toyota purchases 1,000 tons annually. Dubbed the Superstack, the plague-factory has spread sulfur dioxide across northern Ontario, becoming every environmentalist’s nightmare.

“The acid rain around Sudbury was so bad it destroyed all the plants and the soil slid down off the hillside,” said Canadian Greenpeace energy-coordinator David Martin during an interview with Mail, a British-based newspaper.

All of this would be bad enough in and of itself; however, the journey to make a hybrid doesn’t end there. The nickel produced by this disastrous plant is shipped via massive container ship to the largest nickel refinery in Europe. From there, the nickel hops over to China to produce ‘nickel foam.’ From there, it goes to Japan. Finally, the completed batteries are shipped to the United States, finalizing the around-the-world trip required to produce a single Prius battery. Are these not sounding less and less like environmentally sound cars and more like a farce?

Wait, I haven’t even got to the best part yet.

When you pool together all the combined energy it takes to drive and build a Toyota Prius, the flagship car of energy fanatics, it takes almost 50 percent more energy than a Hummer - the Prius’s arch nemesis.

Through a study by CNW Marketing called “Dust to Dust,” the total combined energy is taken from all the electrical, fuel, transportation, materials (metal, plastic, etc) and hundreds of other factors over the expected lifetime of a vehicle. The Prius costs an average of $3.25 per mile driven over a lifetime of 100,000 miles - the expected lifespan of the Hybrid.

The Hummer, on the other hand, costs a more fiscal $1.95 per mile to put on the road over an expected lifetime of 300,000 miles. That means the Hummer will last three times longer than a Prius and use less combined energy doing it.

So, if you are really an environmentalist - ditch the Prius. Instead, buy one of the most economical cars available - a Toyota Scion xB. The Scion only costs a paltry $0.48 per mile to put on the road. If you are still obsessed over gas mileage - buy a Chevy Aveo and fix that lead foot.

One last fun fact for you: it takes five years to offset the premium price of a Prius. Meaning, you have to wait 60 months to save any money over a non-hybrid car because of lower gas expenses.

If that article was not enough here is an older piece with some interesting 411.

Ford was losing $2,000 to $3,000 for every hybrid it sold because consumers won’t pay the entire $6,000 extra that it costs to produce a hybrid over its gas-powered counterpart. Never mind also that in the real world — outside of the Environmental Protection Agency’s tax-payer funded testing sites — hybrids don’t deliver anywhere close to the gas mileage that the agency attributes to them, as auto-writer Richard Burr reported in the Weekly Standard.

(Story Source) Leaders at Riverdale Christian Academy (California) are accused of racism after a themed graduation party on Friday, June 1st.

The theme was southern plantations during the Civil War. Students and staff dressed up in period costumes for the event.

Controversy arose when some school employees dressed up as slaves and wore black make-up on their faces, arms and legs.

Pictures from this party ended up on the internet and have caused controversy. One photo shows a scene of a runaway slave as he is taken away. Other photos show slaves working in the field and at a lemonade stand. The scenes were part of a graduation party skit.

Douglas Spencer, Principal, Riverdale Christian Academy said “The point of the skit it to roast the graduates and poke a little fun at their mannerism and different things like that.”

Spencer said the school holds a themed graduation party every year for the students. Pictures from this year’s skit were posted on the internet which caught the attention of local blog writer Tate Hill.

Hill claims he is offended by the skit as an African American and as a Christian, saying “It really concerned me that other individuals that share that same faith would allow themselves to be involved in such circumstances that only portray hatred prejudice and racism.”

Principal Spencer has apologized for the pictures and the offensive skit. He said they did not mean to offend anyone and it was all a big misunderstanding.

All the photos have been taken down from the internet.

There are about 130 students enrolled in Riverdale Christian Academy and many of them attended the party.

What is it with white people and this blackface bullshit? Do we still have the secret society of rednecks who still do this shit behind closed doors and on occasion get caught.
Not to beat a dead horse, but this is why the Imus’s, the KKK, skinheads of the world has never bothered me because they have the balls to simply say, “we hate niggers.”
Here you have educators at a “Christian” school claiming “ignorance” and issuing hollow apologies. Mr. Tate points out what should be the obvious:

“This is not merely a theatrical production emulating fictional characters, but a purposeful demonstration of disregard for the seriousness of the black American slave experience. It trivializes slavery, it celebrates the ungodly and unfounded Biblical justification of this Era”

This is just amazing that in 2007 in the midst of all of the racist crap eroding our society ignorant ass racist redneck fucks still don’t get it. Blackface is not cool, “but we was just playin.’ we love darkies!
