There was a time in this country when, had OJ Simpson been
found guilty of murdering his White ex-wife, despite White
society branding her as a tarnished women, an i.e., Nigger
Love, OJ would�ve been dragged out of his jail cell,
castrated, and hanged at sunset. 
And
I don�t believe that�s an exaggeration, hanged by - dig
this - good, decent God fearin� White folks. Yes e-n-t-i-r-e
families would�ve turned out, laid down a table cloth,
had themselves a picnic as they watched a Black
person dangle from a tree...
Strange Fruit ... 1938, that�s where this nation is rooted. Call
it �All-American justice.�
There was also a time when, if a Black man had gotten in
the face of a White women, had the audacity to chastise
her for what he believed to be hypocritical, duplicitous
behavior, he would have been �put back in his proper place�
by any, I say any White man in the vicinity. And
might I suggest that�s the inherent reaction.
Ahh, the �good ol� days,� for which Newt, Rush, Savage and
Hannity have long yearned. To be honest and accurate,
OJ couldn�t have had a White women, the apartheid laws
which governed the land would have forbid the improper
relationship in the vast majority of US states.
Have some tell it, times have changed ... Black President
and all.
Have times changed ... ? Once again, that�s where this nation�s
head and soul use to be.
Now noting this was the American landscape of desire and
design, I surely was not shocked nor stunned to find out
Arizona Governor Jane Brewer declared she felt - dig this
� �threatened,� if you will.�
Well no I won�t!
Might this be is the same �threatened� Chief Darryl Gates
21 LAPD members felt when they attempted to play cop/judge/jury
and Klansman with Rodney King�s life? 
Or
perhaps she felt like one of the accusers in the infamous
Scottsbourough Boys rape case of the mid 1930s
down in the Land of Dixie - White women concocted tragically
typical tales of Black men wanting them/taking them,
and then were proved to be lying.
And now the charge of �I was scared the savage would eat
me...�
The well thought out waving of her finger in the President�s
face was trailer park sign language indicating �look!
See how I treat this boy?�
This whole snapshot reeks of the mindset gladly abiding by
the recently published Ron n� Rand Paul�s little angry
White person�s guide: �That Black boy, the Mandingo
Buck over there, the one about 50 years old, he looked
at me, he looked at me in a way which made me feel uncomfortable
... I felt violated!�
It�s a good thing this is not 1963 - there might be some
good ol� boys gathering in the Arizona town square, headed
over to �Nigger-ville� to find the �uppity� Darkie who
looked that White women up n� down...because that appears
to be this nation�s natural inclination - to demand the
�rift-raft� n� �misfits� adhere to the inferior lot to
which they�ve been assigned by former �masters.�
Ain�t that a bitch?
See, the combo of history and today�s hostile racial climate
solidifies, implies, that it ought to be specifically
�Euro-Americans� who confess - yes, they have these deep-seeded
and wide-spread racial superiority beliefs - rooted in
what glaringly appears to be an obvious, massive inferiority
complex that fuels an over-the-top demand to be praised
and in power - whether this mighty status is legit or
not.
I�m
sorry, but any group which has gone to the well documented
gutter-low depths White folks in America have gone to,
from �Don�t look me in the eye boy� ... to segregated
cemeteries, Please! Are these not clear indicators
of some more serious issues? A collective �cultural flaw�
which seeks to impose this unspoken rule of White is
right?
Forget an hour or two on the couch for these small-minded
people; they�d require a few years on a King-size water
bed to unpeel that funky White onion....
Brewer was playing to the rank n� file Rednecks, who�re as
giddy as Harvest Festival queens to see someone put the
President back in his 2nd class Mulatto place.
And they hope Newt�s their Bull Conners. I�d advise Newt
not to stick a finger in this president�s face.
From the moment President Obama won the election, the �good
ol� boys� commenced with the � Black Glove treatment,�
the slighting and dismissive comments, labeling the President
as an �Muslim,� which translates into �terrorist,� ( I
speak Redneck-lish,) the references as a �man-child,�
and as an illegal alien. The refusal to address
Obama as �President,� the Joe Wilson - �you lie moment�
when we saw, no, not the the presidency, but the man in
the highest office in all the land deliberately treated
with irreverence and impropriety, addressed in a manner
never witnesses before in this country over the last almost
quarter of a millennium.
Google �TEA Party and Obama� if you want to get a glimpse of how
your neighbors and co-workers demean the man and his wife;
it�s extremely telling.
There exist strategic, cohesive, yet impromptu tactical instructions
floating around Grand Ol� TEA Party (GOTP) circles which
mandate that if you get the opportunity to �belittle�
or insult this particular president or his wife, treat
them in the manner this nation has historically treated
Black leaders ... as if they were, yes, Niggers - just
do it!
And we all know how this nation sanctioned, authorized and
endorsed Apartheid for decades, and only begrudgingly
changed when they felt they had little other choice. Not
because of any divine enlightenment, but because of growing
global indictment.
Can we be clear on this: if, as the Garden State Governor
Christy suggests, this country could have waited until
White America�s court of public opinion was ready,
willing and able to look upon Black folks as humans. h-e-l-l,
we�d still be waiting.
The last 3 plus years illustrate that reality in stark Black
n� white. And make no mistake, after these 3 years, as
my grandfather would say, White folks have �shown their
asses� - therefore we�ll never go back to the pre-Obama
era of this alleged color-blindness White folks
claimed. No, we have, as Americans-of-color, seen far
too much of those asses to ever believe that crap again.
Think �In The Heat Of The Night� when the richest
White man in the county slaps Sidney Poitier ...
that�s what 75% of White America is praying they live
to see Newt do to Barack Obama.
I think they�ve conveniently forgotton how Sidney Poitier
retaliated and slapped the pompous ass right back in his
face before you could mutter �Archie Bunker.�
I assure you, President Obama has seen the movie too.
