zizzy says: Many of the people who wish for the America that the Founding Fathers envisioned, don't realize that the FFs would view them with disdain because of their social class. They mistakenly believe that the Founding Father's would rescue and elevate them as equals out of shared pigmentation solidarity. Sure, they'd elevate them above darker pigmented people, but only to the status of pawn. Former Chinese Premier Chou En-lai once observed: "One of the delightful things about Americans is that they have absolutely no historical memory." I wonder what race the 12 million uninsured might be? Do white people have a right to say "that's enough"? Why did CNN not report all the bussed in Acorn activity at the Town Hall Meetings? Are the rules now, "shut up" or you will be declared a racist? Can you believe all those racist democrats showing up at town hall meetings with those Obama as Hitler signs? How about that racist who showed up in Arizona with a rifle on his back? MSNBC did an entire spot on him and how this is all about racism. Of course the edited the video into a few second loop so you couldn't see he was black, but hey, why give your viewers all the information if it might interfere with your talking points? @joyh8 - Race is a construct, a creation of 17th century wealthy colonialists that is still used to direct and control human behavior. Race = Not Free. Dissent does not make you a racist. That is not what Tim Wise said. He is talking about the undercurrent of racism stirred-up by right-wing pundits. That's all. I don't wonder about the "race" of 12 million uninsured human beings That's is unimportant. White people having enough? Of what? Say it jayh8. Stop being a coward and say exactly what "white" people have had enough of. So what if Acorn bussed people to Town Hall meetings. That is necessary to ensure that citizens can get to a public meeting to discuss their views. No conspiracy. |
