Black Leadership

What if some David Duke like racist said that blacks were so depraved that they have taken to the streets and are eating the dead a mere three days after Katrina? He’d have been slapped down and not taken seriously by anyone except as an example of an uneducated racists. So why when Randall “Reparations” Robinson made the exact same asinine statement was he not taken to the woodshed by black “leadership” like the supposed Revs Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton?

What if some white politician said what is obvious, “Jesse Jackson, AL Sharpton et al hate white people. The only use the Revs have for whites is shaking them down for money so that they can live like kings. And while they live the high life, those they supposedly advocate for live in the same squalor they have lived in for 40 years.” Anyone who stated the obvious with regard to the Revs would be ignored. So why all of the interest in Keyane West’s racially incendiary remarks, "I hate the way they portray us in the media. If you see a black family, it says they're looting. If you see a white family, they're looking for food. George Bush doesn't care about black people." First the “they’re” Mr. West is talking about is the Lamestream Media. Next why would a person – like the President of the United States - meet with a group whose leadership is obsessed with destroying him?

What if some race baiting white politician tried to excuse slavery and lynch mobs by saying something as dopey as, “Well, we can’t really say what was lawful under the circumstances of those times.” No doubt there would be a justifiable hue and cry from every corner, white, black, brown, yellow etc. demanding an apology resignation or prosecution for a hate crime. So why can a race baiting buffoon like Jesse Jackson say the exact same thing to excuse looting, rape and murder in New Orleans in the aftermath of Katrina without so much as a peep from the Lamestream Media. Here’s a guy – a congregationless “preacher” - that, were it not for his prowess as a race baiting hate mongering shakedown artist, would be drying cars at a local carwash. He can make irresponsible dopey comments everyday of his life and as long as they rhyme, MSM shills like Anderson Cooper will simply ignore them. Why hasn’t a black leader a real Rev perhaps not sounded off and said, “Well, yes Jesse there are laws. They are called the ten commandments.”

What if some white politician, entertainer, columnist or hell even an average Joe made a comment like, “Screw those people. Let them help their own.” Such a person no doubt would be excoriated and rightly so. So why does a black entertainer, Sean “Puffy”, “P. Diddy” or now just “Diddy” Combs get away with same race baiting BS? "There's been a lot of telethons," Diddy said, "but this is our telethon. These are our people." Well then hell Diddy, you and your own bail them out – literally and figuratively. One thing is for sure whatever you do will not be enough and few will even bother with a, “Yo Diddy! You da man,man.” Most will respond with a, “ Diddy mo f@#^er, you gots to do more.” Why hasn’t some black leader stepped forward and said, “You’re an idiot. We’ve been fighting for 40 years for desegregation and integration. How can you say something so dumb as to ignore that fundamental goal? These are not ‘our people’ unless by ‘our’ you mean Americans.”

What if influential whites (Eminem and the Beastie Boyz don’t count) set out to depict all black women as “hos” and “bitches” and black men as drugged out, pimps and gangsters in a media form that become known as Gangsta Rap? There would be an out cry from responsible black leadership. So why don’t Revs Jesse and Al take on the gangstas and say, “Look, this junk is infecting our culture and confirming the world’s opinion of our race as a bunch of depraved psychos.” Instead Jesse praises gangsta rap as a progressive art form that states the truth of inner city life. Yeah right, as if one couldn’t say being poor is a downer without calling their own mother a “ho.” One could almost see the Rev Jesse leading a march on Washington ending at the Lincoln Memorial. There Jesse would rhyme for 20 minutes and end by paraphrasing the MLK civil rights speech from the same spot by noting, “My bitch is a ho. My bitch is a ho. Thank God almighty, ‘cause I needs the dough.”

What if a white mayor had left hundreds of thousands of poor blacks at the mercy of a hurricane by failing to enact his own evacuation plan? What if he was complaining about a lack of busses to evacuate the poor at the same time hundreds of municipal buses were being submerged by storm water? What if he sent tens of thousands to live in their own excrement without food, water, or police protection in the Superdome for three day? Leadership of every stripe would rightfully call for the mayor’s head on a platter. So why does Gansta Mayor Nagin get a pass? The LSM and black leaders call the president a racist because he didn’t rent 2,000 Greyhound buses and personally drive the lead bus into New Orleans to lead an evacuation that could have and should have been handled by the mayor – were he not an incompetent corrupt fool. And even if the president had rented the busses, his worthlessness the Mayor, no doubt, would have complained about the quality of the busses and demanded twice the number required so that none of his constituents would have to suffer the indignity of having to move to the back of the bus.

The fact is that a lot of black people do speak up. But the Lamestream Media ignores them for the most part and when the LSM does offer them an outlet it is quickly followed by one of the creepy loons above calling the dissenter an Uncle Tom or using Harry Belafonte’s colorful description of Colin Powell a “House N….er.” Now, why wouldn’t the right Rev Jackson tell Harry that there is no place for such talk?

While we’re on the slave metaphor, it seems to me it applies more to the black Lib leaders who chase after any Con black who escapes the Democrat plantation. For 40 years the Dems have used their 90+% black vote to cultivate their own personal power while ignoring the problems that have plagued the minority communities or worse have offered programs that actually exacerbate the problem. When a black who has escaped the plantations points out that it was Dems who raised all of those Confederate flags over the Southern state capitals, or that it’s Reps now removing them, or that it was Dems who were beating blacks in Selma, Birmingham and across the South, or that it was Southern Dems who failed to support the Civil Rights Bill of 1964, or that it was a Rep who made MLK day a national holiday, or that it was a Rep who extended the voting rights act for 25 years, or that it was a Rep who made a black man and woman the first blacks to serve as Sec of State, the House N&^$&*ers for the Democrat party shout down those who escaped the plantation, calling them Uncle Toms and worse, lest the real House N*%$%ers lose their privilege to sit and sup at Harry Reid’s, Nancy Pelosi’s, Howard Dean’s table. Now Katrina has offered the Democrat Party’s house help a new platform for further demagoguery. Real black leadership is called for. Sadly it will not gain a voice in the LSM.
