I THINK THEY CAN TAKE IT MR. PRESIDENT.
Show the picture Mr. President! A-merry-cans, as you can see, can take it. That's a pic of Emmett Till in the left hand corner of this post. His picture was featured in a prominent A-merry-can magazine soon after he was killed, and the republic survived. A-merry-cans have strong stomachs when it comes to this stuff. Just look at all those people having j a jolly good time while they watched those "strange fruits" hanging from trees. Don't tell me they can't look at a pic of OBL with a hole in his head. Besides, do you really want to give wingnuts another reason to cry conspiracy?
Wingnuts and radical Islamist now have something in common: they both believe that O and his people are hiding something. Why did they bury Osama at sea? Why so fast? Why don't they just show the pictures? Are they doctoring them?
Over at Radio Rwanda it's all they talk about; those OBL photos. Wingnuts are giving us their opinions about why the photos should be released. Make no mistake, the reason that some people want these photos released is because a certain beige man said that he will not do it right now. "We don't need to spike the football". Great!
Well then when can we celebrate Mr. President? I know that your CIA director said that they would be released eventually, but that might be too far down the line. You know that A-merry-cans have short attention spans. We might forget who the damn guy is by the time the photos are released.
"given the graphic nature of these photos it would create a national security risk....
...We discussed this internally...Keep in mind that we are absolutely certain that this was him. We've done DNA sampling and testing. And so there is no doubt that we killed Osama bin Laden.'
When Kroft noted that there are people in Pakistan and elsewhere who believe bin Laden is still alive, the president said 'we we monitoring worldwide reaction.'
'There is no doubt that Osama bin Laden is dead,' he said. 'Certainly there is no doubt among al Qaeda members that he is dead. So we don't think that a photograph in and of itself is going to make any difference.'
'There are going to be some folks who deny it, he' added. 'The fact of the matter is, you will not see bin Laden walking on this earth again."'
Hmmm, that's what we said about Elvis and Tupac, and look where that got us.
Labels: Osama bin Laden photos.
Till and Bin Laden are not moral equivalent. Sure, as a voyeur nation, we can stomach it. O's reason for not releasing the photos is reasonable.
I think the photos should be released.
Where's Bradley Manning when you need him?
'There are going to be some folks who deny it, he' added. 'The fact of the matter is, you will not see bin Laden walking on this earth again.
Hmmm, that's what we said about Elvis and Tupac, and look where that got us."
Field, you are SO wrong on too many levels for this one!
However, I can admit I wasn't in favor of releasing the photos, but the pic of Emmitt Till and your post, now has me thinking the photos should be released, just not right now.
And prep for comment moderation, 3 posts in, LOL!!!

Instead of the U.S. government having to prove Osama Bin Laden is dead. Why doesn't Osama Bin Laden prove that he's alive?
Its better the goverment doesn't release -no need to escalate more Muslim and make bin Laden a martyr.
rainywalker said...
If we could stand Janet Reno's face on television, we can stand Osama Bin Laden's image. If he was alive where would we house him? Another point for the death penalty, this is gonna save us poor people some tax money.
I'm sure if OBL were alive, he would have made a video by now.
CareyCarey said...
Field my man, I thought many would miss your point (and it's proving to be true), but I am here to tell you that your subtle message was brilliant.
Imo, the core of your message was not about should he or shouldn't he. When you opened with the photo of Emmitt Till, and alluded to the thousands of carcasses of the murdered in Rwanda, I knew exactly what you were saying. I mean, I heard, "some folks bleed red "white" and blue, at the sight of the "murdered victims" of POC.
Oh yeah, I caught this...
" Just look at all those people having j a jolly good time while they watched those "strange fruits" hanging from trees"
Field, my hat is tipped in your direction. You brought the underlay for the overlay, and many didn't see it. And that's very perplexing to me because I thought a fox smells their own hole. But, I do understand how - in this case - you pulled the wool over their eyes. In this post, I believe you slipped them a micky in their favorite drink - racism on the rocks.
The pics should be showing up on WikiLeaks in 3...2...1...
And you know Osama will still be putting out videos years from now, just like Tupac.
Shhhhhh field, the pics are already online via Reuters.
Come on FN, don't you know the O man is busy tryin to get the story right and keep Joe bite me from giving away state secrets!!!!
Obama will wait til about Friday when those low job numbers come out before he releases those pictures.
Gots to keep the plantation negros believing things are not all that bad in Obama's America.
Dang, after I posted, I wish I would have waited for that one dude from the boogie down bronx, to spill his POV. You know, that one dude that takes UMBRAGE

Today I am calling a scratchline!
Wingnuts want to see the picture so they'll have something to jackoff too. Sick Mofo's
The Telegraph reported:
Leon Panetta, director of the CIA, revealed there was a 25 minute blackout during which the live feed from cameras mounted on the helmets of the US special forces was cut off.
A photograph released by the White House appeared to show the President and his aides in the situation room watching the action as it unfolded. In fact they had little knowledge of what was happening in the compound.
Mr Panetta said: "Once those teams went into the compound I can tell you that there was a time period of almost 20 or 25 minutes where we really didn't know just exactly what was going on. And there were some very tense moments as we were waiting for information.
What were those butt monkeys watching in the photo op?
The Deadliest Catch?

Projecting again?
Field, there is a big difference in releasing the photos of Emmett Till and OBL. Emmett was killed because he whistled at a ww in MS. But OBL killed over 3000 Americans and took down the WTC. He was known throughout the world and wanted by Americans across the country. But Emmett was a black teenager and White Americans did not care.
"When Kroft noted that there are people in Pakistan and elsewhere who believe bin Laden is still alive, the president said 'we we monitoring worldwide reaction.'"
Dear Mr. Field, please correct what the President said. I am sure he did not say, "we we..." as though he was Kid's cousin from Cleveland. Obama speaks eloquent English.
FYI. No one really dies. They just leave their body but incarnate in another body. Karmic hatred tends to have the spirit incarnate quickly in poisonous bodies such as Cobras or angry monkeys or crazy pit bulls.
Either way, his anger and hatred should put his next birth somewhere in the black community. Maybe Jamaica or Philly?
@ Wesley R, my man, you said it all... "Wingnuts want to see the picture so they'll have something to jackoff too. Sick [racists]Mofo's
Great catch! My hat is tipped in your direction.
Obama can also speak with a negro dialect.
"we we" might be "we is" "we be" "we dopin'd yo" "we'zzzz yo"
You'll see the pictures around Oct. 2012...especially if Obama is in a tight race...got to spread it out a little.

Well you never disappoint Carey.
You obviously have seen what us mere mortals have missed.
You're a legend in your own mind.
The Reuters photos don't show Bin Laden, they show his servant boys. And part of a Black ops helicopter that has not been seen before and probably cost tax payers a zillion bucks.
http://www.reuters.com/subjects/bin-laden-compound
The pics of the dead should satisfy the wingnuts bloodlust until the snuff film comes out on WikiLeaks.
And I really don't understand the debate between Democrat and Republican here. U.S. foreign policy is fundamentally evil no matter what party is in charge.
Right on, right on.Thanks for the correction and i agree with you.
SPC, "What were those butt monkeys watching in the photo op?"
did you have to use the phrase "butt monkeys"? I mean, it sounds so inappropriate and down right racist. I know you are not a racist. You actually love Blacks because you are here helping us to stay on the straight and narrow. And I want you to know how much it is appreciated.
On behalf of Field and his followers, "thank you.":D
Tafari said...
Thank you for breaking it down!!!
This. Post. Is. EPIC!!!!
Obama's playing the nice guy role only as he can. But like you, I think Amuur'cuh can handle it. Hell, didn't you see all them white peo... oops, real Americans celebrating when the news broke reminiscent of theose vintage just-hung-a-nigger pics from back in the day? Yep, they were happy then, and they're still happy.
RIPPa, back during the hanging days Whites were ignorant and happy because they saw hanging Blacks as a form of entertainment.
But all that is in the past, now. Whites have changed immensely and have softened their hearts. We are now in post-racial America where a violent photo could cause psychological harm to an entire nation of Americans, esp Whites. I am glad Obama took that into account.
Here's the point.
The decision to not release the photos has NOTHING to do with how this will play in the U.S., and everything to do with how it will futher inflame terrorist groups and the OBL martyr campaign.
There are also some possible violations of the Geneva convention, and Obama needs to demonstrate he ain't like shrub, who released photos of the dad Saddam son's just for more blood sport.
c'MON with this stuff, blacks laid claim to black holes, nigga, negroes, now you can't even say "butt" because of the violent ghetto police?
"But all that is in the past, now. Whites have changed immensely and have softened their hearts."
I dunno. After seeing all of the veiled and coded racial bigotry flare up around the U.S. after Obama was elected, I'd have to disagree with your general assessment. This nation still has a LOT of work to do when it comes down to handling it's problems with racial/ethnic relations.
"There are also some possible violations of the Geneva convention, and Obama needs to demonstrate he ain't like shrub, who released photos of the dad Saddam son's just for more blood sport."
This is why there are always problems. Blacks like you demand to be the center of attention no matter what the topic. This has nothing to do with racism, nothing to do with lynching, yet you in one post manage to marry racism, tree hanging and only white people celebrating the death of osama. How disgustingly disconnected, narcissistic self centered and utterly insane. You make no sense, yet look for that tenous link to make it all about people you "read" about. As if you had anything to do with it anyway. You most likely are from another country livin large in the good ol usa now as a negro instead of a servant. I bet I am right.
The whole essence of the bile you vomited is that whites hung blacks back in the day and they are still the same evil people...see.
^Then you wonder why there are race issues. I guess you liked bin laden and everything he did to this country that you hate even though you moved here and got a much better life. Or is it you will support any evil that may hurt white people if you can somehow in an sub par intellectual fashion dissassociate yourself. What a racist piece of Shit, that sums you up.
I'm not a racist.I'm a realist.
Butt-Monkey ---
Is someone who worships another person. They laugh at all their jokes whether they're funny or not, they think they're great even when they're not and generally strive to spend as much time with that person as they can.
No racism at all.

Is it to late for me to be a Democrat?
anon "c'MON with this stuff, blacks laid claim to black holes, nigga, negroes, now you can't even say "butt" because of the violent ghetto police?"
Actually, the word "monkeys" in the phrase "butt monkeys" is the most offensive. Judging from how Blacks on FN take offense everytime an innocent white person mentions monkey in conjunction with Obama they go crazy.
I think there is something in their psyche that tells them to reject the word "monkey". Yet, SPC innocently mentioned 'butt monkey". I am only trying to help out here and keep the peace between the Whites, Blacks and half-breeds like Dr. Queen.
Like Obama said, "we have more important things to do than fight each other because someone said, "butt monkey".
Thrasher said...
I am of the opinion Obama made a concession to white privledge not only with his display of his paper work but I also think his decison to execute OBL instead of capturing him and putting him on trial was also a reflective nod to his critics and the persona of white privledge which seeks to direct how a Black man should navigate as the president in a white nation
Interesting in viewing the photos of the war room the only Black face in the place was Obama we can die for America but that is it..
The decison to not display OBL photo was finally Obama's truly singular moment in this entire saga and for that I acknowledge and salute him...
SPC, "Maybe the world is coming to a end?
Is it to late for me to be a Democrat?"
You joke but the world might be coming to an end. Please read Revelations where it talks about an unexpected leader ruling the world and a river flowing backwards as a sign that the "end is near". Ask any good Christian and they will enlighten you.
Why would you want to switch to Dem at a critical time like this? Abortionists will be the first to go, believe me.

Yes, yes, Mr. Negro, why? Hmm....Why did Obama take three years to release his birth certificate?
Because he's trying to encourage conspiracy thinking again, so he he can deflect real questions about his past life and present policies.
By hyping conspiracies he can disprove, he seeks to avoid discussing things he can't.
Not very sly, by you don't have to be when the media is in your pocket.

You sure sound stupid Thrasher. It takes a deluded racist to believe in the myth of white privilege in these days of the Obama administration.
And blacks don't do any dying for America. The guys at the front line fighting the wars and killing terrorist scum are white.
Whites join to serve their country. Blacks join for the benefits. Generalizing I know, and I've served with some great black soldiers, but I seen a lot.
Oh yeah, thats it.Whitey made him do it.Who would have thought after Republicans freed you years ago you still would be under whitey's control?
Free dem chains that bind your body and mind.Free your soul from the grip of the white devil!!!!
Rise up my brotha's and sista's!!!!1!!The time has come!!!!!!The war is near!!!

hallelujah!!!!!! hallelujah!!!!!
Black Run America is just within our reach!!!!
Col Corn, "You sure sound stupid Thrasher. It takes a deluded racist to believe in the myth of white privilege in these days of the Obama administration."
No, it takes a racist to deny that white privilege exists. Or even worse, can't even notice white privilege that permeates America.
"And blacks don't do any dying for America. The guys at the front line fighting the wars and killing terrorist scum are white."
You are full of shit. I am a Vietnam Vet and I know during that war there was a higher percentage of Blacks drafted by the lottery than Whites. Furthermore, Whites were running across the border to Canada to avoid the military. If that isn't a magnificent gutless display of cowardice, I don't know what is. You were probably one of them.
I dunno -- as a parent I say no.
I want to know what you think.

Dechaco said...
A man of uncommon ideological rigidity, Obama must now know—at least on some level—that what President Bush did was based on foresight rather than fear. Obama is now reaping the rewards of the intelligence architecture put in place by his predecessor, and which Obama himself opposed. This appears to be a sore point within the administration. Obama seems to want all the credit for himself, even if it is undeserved.
How totally out of character for him.
Carolyn Moon said...
Oh Lord Field, I was in elementary school when Emmett Till was killed.
That picture was on the cover of JET which stayed on our coffee table for an extended period. I had nightmares and the other children in the neighborhood were haunted by that for months. We felt so helpless and seemed to realize that when the boogeyman is out to get you; your parents and the other adults in the community would not be able to save you.
I for one believe that he's dead and the wingnuts will never be satisfied. They are already thinking of ways to "dis" the President and stating "stupid stuff" about this incident.
At this point, I'm not in a celebratory but in meditative and introspective mode. The sleeping cells have awakened and whether or not the picture is shown reeks of irrelevancy for it's ON. They are going to avenge this one--believe that!!!

There are more Blacks in the military today than ever before. I have four family members presently serving today. Like I said, you are full of shit and you have never served one day of your life in the military. You can't find it in you to give credit to Blacks who have died for your sorry ass.

Wandrin said...
Hey Field, here's a question for you: Why didn't bin Laden have a gun?
There could be a lot of reasons, but here's one: If he were in prison.
Was that big wall around his compound to keep outsiders out or to keep bin Laden in? Or both?
ATTENTION!!! To all the stupedos, naysayers, and people that laugh at fart jokes, lend me your ears.
Look at something I found at Jack & Jill Politics...
"But what do white men do? They minimize, denigrate, doubt, deride, scorn,and equivocate. "Obama hesitated." "He didn't give Bush credit." "He just signed off on the mission." "He didn't release the photos. We don't know if he's really dead."
Yes yes yes, and I think it's safe to say that it's a fool's errand to believe all the people involved in this operation and those who were privy to the photos, are sworn to "dupe America". What fool would believe 200 our more people could hold a secret? COME ON! For a start, one of those backstabbing racists (Democrats and Republicans ) would drop all the dirty laundry for love/and or money. Also, it's only reasonable to believe if OBL were not dead, him and/or his allies would post a video of him doing the electric slide to discredit all his detractors. I mean, please, who's on first? Get you heads out of your ass and stop showing all your colors.

Tariq said...
A BBC interview with a Pakistani former mucky muck last night said that Osama was not even able to stand up. The Paki guy did not say when he had last heard or seen of Obama, but in the context of the interview it was "not recently". The interviewee was a former Paki government official living in the UK it seemed.
Also, Osama's last video with contemporary topical content was released 7 years ago in Oct 29th, 2004 when he suddenly claimed responsibility for 9/11 in contrast to his earlier video denials.
The timing of this video clearly boosted Bush's 2004 re-election bid four days later on Nov 2, 2004. After this point, Obama had served his purpose for our WoT and his continued existence was less desirable than his virtual existence.
After that Oct 29th, 2004 video, there were no more videos of Osama discussing contemporary issues. Except for 1 or 2 very brief general topic video segments pasted into longer audio releases and periodic audio only tapes with his static photo attached in a video, the popular and telegenic Osama went off the air for good. This inexplicable change in propaganda tactics is one of the main reasons why many believe Osama died, possibly due to his known medical issues, years ago.
The best explainations why Osama stopped making his highly popular videos (among his followers) was that he either (a) was dead or (b) too sickly to be seen on video.
Which means that the US SEALS may have had to put a bullet into the head of some sickly bed-ridden Osama (or one who just committed sucide).
This helps explain some of the oddities in the official account which has changed within the first 24hrs.
* (according to the latest version) Why didn't Osama have a gun, shoot himself or at others given so much time with the noises outside?
* Why didn't Osama try to escape? Certainly he would've had escape tunnels for just such an expected event and there was sufficient warning from the helicopters and noises outside to scramble down an escape tunnel.
* Why was he so lightly guarded? He was too sick to move, possibly near death, and if discovered he would die if moved anyway.
* Why did his wife shield him and have to be shot in the leg to get her out of the way? Or not, depending upon the version - but it very easy to image a woman covering her bedridden husband.
If Osama was gravely sick, it seems provisions would at least be made for a suicide pill or injection to avoid potential "enhanced interrogation" or worse (handover to a black site in an allied country like Egypt).
* The details of this scenario would strongly argue for a quick disposal of the corpse to avoid any investigations into the details of Osama's death - be he gravely ill or dead by suicide before our SEAL team got there.

As usual, you a liar. You're questioning the service of African Americans, when you've never served yourself. You are the typical, right-wing chicken-hawk. African Americans have always exceeded expectations in recruitment. Their numbers have decline somewhat, but are still beyond the proportion according to the population.
For years African Americans have enlisted in the military in numbers far exceeding their proportion of the population. In 2003 for example, African Americans made up over 26 percent of active duty Army personnel, and roughly 21 percent of active duty personnel in all military service branches. This 21 percent figure has been consistent over a period of 20 years, dating back to 1983.
These long-standing patterns are now showing signs of change. For example, African Americans are currently joining the military nearly in proportion to their percentage in the population, a sharp decline from earlier enlistment rates. Hispanic enlistments are still lagging well behind their percent of the population. Native American/Alaskan enlistees are increasing and well above their percent in the population. The data below is for fiscal year 2006:
See charts:
http://co.mcc.org/us/co/stories/militaryrecruitment.html
Ms. Ann G. Myma said...These long-standing patterns are now showing signs of change. For example, African Americans are currently joining the military nearly in proportion to their percentage in the population, a sharp decline from earlier enlistment rates"
While overall, minorities comprise a higher percent of the Army than their proportion of the population, they tend to be underrepresented in the combat arms
The fact is that blacks disproportionately serve in Army combat-service support units, not combat units. Such units have been "majority minority," since the 1990's, with more black soldiers than white. By contrast, the infantry, which generally suffers the most casualties in wartime, has been "whiter than America" for the past quarter century.
Blacks and whites join the military for different reasons. On the one hand, white youths are frequently looking for adventure while they try to raise money for college. As a result, they tend to flock to the combat arms, especially elite units like the Rangers and airborne. On the other, young black males, "are generally seeking skills, and so gravitate toward administrative and technical jobs. Because they often find the Army a fairer and better place to live than civilian society, blacks tend to stay enlisted longer.
In addition, most pilots are white, as are most special-operations forces, e.g. Navy SEALS and Army special-forces. In a war, middle-class white kids, not minorities, are at the greatest risk, since they make up the bulk of the combat arms.
Statisitcs for the Iraq War (as of 2007) show American whites, relative to their share of the young population, were getting killed in combat at 1.86 times the rate of nonwhites.
In Afghanistan through 2009, whites were dying at a rate 2.47 times their share of the population of 20-24 year olds.
When you look at the stats for Vietnam, the story we were told about minority cannon fodder turns out to have been false. Then as now whites led in service, in wounds, and in deaths in Vietnam and in a greater ratio than their representation in the population.
A BBC interview with a Pakistani former mucky muck last night said that Osama was not even able to stand up. The Paki guy did not say when he had last heard or seen
Please provide a link to this BBC interview. I have search the BBC. It's not there.
The fact is that blacks disproportionately serve in Army combat-service support units
Here we go again with this right-wing, racist trash. You lifted this article from a nut job named Mackubin T. Owens. He is a faculty member of a right-wing christian college. My neighbor is a recruiter, who happens to be African American. I'll see that he gets this.
With military personnel like Owens, I glad African American numbers are going down. As a matter of fact, I hope they stop joining.

By revealing his birth certificate, Obama responded to the realities of politics and voting. He cannot defy the voters if he wants a second term. Because his credibility is sinking daily and because he saw how large the anti-Bush Truther mob became, he decided to show his birth certificate and end the nonsense. It appears that showing the document has more or less ended the birther controversy.
Whereas all that white privilege has yet to end the 9/11 truther baloney, though it did subside after Bush left office.
but I also think his decison to execute OBL instead of capturing him and putting him on trial
...but I also think his decison to execute OBL instead of capturing him and putting him on trial...
Yeah. Putting bin Laden on trial. Sure.
How would that be done? Would Eric Holder issue search warrants to be executed in Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Afghanistan and Pakistan?
Would Holder subpeona witnesses from those "countries" to testify against bin Laden?
What would the defense attorneys do? They'd say it's impossible to conduct a "fair trial" because so many of bin Laden's fellow al-Qaeda members are dead -- killed by the US military since 9/11 -- leaving no one to testify on bin Laden's behalf.
Of course the idea of a trial is laughable. The US has NO jurisdiction empowering it to conduct pre-trial activities in the nations where bin Laden lived and operated.
Thus all evidence would boil down to hearsay, useless in US courts.
Of course if bin Laden had been captured, interrogators could have waterboarded him and gotten a confession. But confessions obtained through torture are not admissible as evidence.
Americans enjoy many conspiracy theories. Stories about Lincoln's assassination are still around.
There is still a lot of steady business for conspiracy theorists selling books and pamphlets at Dealy Plaza in Dallas. Conspiracy theorists have lifetime employment with the murder of JFK.
Even the family of Martin Luther King has bought into the conspiracy theories that have arisen around MLK's murder. No longer is it enough that James Earl Ray confessed.
The 9/11 truthers still have an audience, and people like Maxine Waters and Cynthia McKinney are among those who believe Bush and Cheney were part of the 9/11 conspiracy.
Now the birthers. However, their claims have been largely debunked, but the 9/11 truther claims were also debunked, which was not enough to put them to rest.
Despite having fair warning of what his decision about Osama bin Laden would bring, Obama seems to have chosen the most controversial path.
Maybe he was trying to be clever by giving people something to rant and rave about while he continues bungling the economy, hoping the press and the blogs are filled with bin Laden lunacy while he works his economic lunacy on the country.
When it comes to never-ending American conspiracy theories, a leader is the OJ Conspiracy.
Despite a mountain of evidence that clearly and incontestably convicts OJ a hundred different ways, millions of Americans say he didn't kill his ex-wfie and Ron Goldman.
Shortly after Michael Jackson died I was in an upscale bar in Brooklyn. Most of the patrons of this bar are black. A discussion of Jackson's death was underway and I joined in.
All the black patrons said the Jackson was NOT a pedophile and they claimed the $20 million he paid to settle claims that he molested a young boy was PROOF that Jackson did NOT molest the boy.
What a novel idea. Pay $20 million to the victim because you are NOT the victimizer.
Inevitably the subject of OJ arose. The same barroom of black patrons said OJ did NOT commit the killings, but he probably knows who did.
OJ had a large team of lawyers who said he didn't do it, just as bin Laden would if he were tried in court. OJ was aquitted.
It's bad enough that the obviously guilty OJ got away with a double homicide. Can you imagine if a couple of people from the Nation of Islam were on bin Laden's jury? They'd vote for acquittal, which, at the very least would create a hung jury.
Maybe thrasher would become a member of that jury. He'd probably vote to acquit bin Laden.
By having bin Laden killed, Obama did the right thing. But the follow-up has been, surprise surprise, disastrous.
The white frat dude dithered, waffled, and pranced in costume for two terms. The AfAm came, saw and did the tasks.
And EVERYONE saw this.
Trying to give credit to bush and his cronies only reminds us of just how incompetent they are. That we tortured for Cheney's pleasure. That we went to bushWar with folks who had nothing, nothing connecting them to 9-11. That bush and friends gave up finding the Perp. That nearly all Rs talked big...but never backed it.
AnnG, thanks for putting the christian slug into sunlight.
Slappy, such an 'expert' you are. Why, you know exactly why a major corporation would settle a lawsuit. And you have the sure knowledge of the murders. What 'expertise'!! You must be nationally recognized for your clearly exceptional and superior abilities.
You are actually so close to Dalit....that you are invisible to most citizens? That they know the name of their illegal gardener...but not yours?
Come to the Truth Side of the Force. Pretending that you are 'just as good' as a doctor or SEAL or full professor....is only true in that you are all citizens, and have value.
You can do dialysis without machines. But, when I hear all the bigots mewling over the fact that Obama, Ivory Tower Liberal Professor was effective...and costumed Legacy fratboy was a joke...I laugh at their attempts. It is over.
I also recall the young lass telling US persons about the babees being removed from incubators by the Great Shaitan, Saddam Hussein. It sold real quick to the Goober anti-abortion crowd.

You lifted this article from a nut job named Mackubin T. Owens. He is a faculty member of a right-wing christian college.
Owens also served in Vietnam as an officer in the Marine Corps.
Meanwhile, with respect to combat deaths in Vietnam, the numbers matched the racial demographics of the country at the time. Slightly over 10% of those killed in combat were black. At the time about 11%-12% of the US population was black.
As far as who got drafted, there was no shortage of white draftees. A lot of whites never went to college and even if they did get a college deferment, deferments were temporary, which led to a lot of white college grads getting their induction notices shortly after getting their college degrees.
A stupid cunt like you would love to see dead photos of bin laden. We all could have guessed that. Dignity and integrity--try em sometime.
Slappy, you forgot to mention that ole Perfesser Owens fronts for an org that wants us to all be christian...whether we want to or not. Simple Google search reveals this. Wonder how it ever got 'overlooked'.
Didn't Ollie North also give arms to bin Laden and the contras? Wasn't he a 'leader'?
FUCK YOU, you sex organ obsessed, stalking, no life, low life idiot!
And your Mammy too!
FREAK!!!
I don't think it would matter if we released the photos or not. The conspiracy nuts will just say it's photoshopped (like the fake ones) anyway. So what's the point? The hard-core nuts think the birth certificate is still fake.
Now it's time to pivot back to Climate Change and Jobs- because the Miss. Valley is about to get really really flooded.
White aforeman said...
Good morning, black racist negroes!
Did you see the news that UCLA researchers rather accurately predicted where bin Laden was? That prediction was also seen by Obama administration officials, both officially and also this way: "In fact, they were so convinced with their findings that one undergrad student who was working on the research passed the paper to her mother, who hand delivered the results to CIA Director Leon Panetta's wife, who lives in the same area".
Yep, the Obama gang obviously knew where Obama was, yet sat on the info. Just like Bush knew about 9/11 beforehand.
Oh wait, it's from FoxNews so it must all be a lie. In fact, there probably even is no such place as "UCLA".

A bigot who lies and claims to be a preacher.
Didn't Charlie Wilson and the Democrats also give money to bin laden?
White Foreman said...
More in the news: it has been discovered who has been providing the guns to the Mexican drug cartels.
Yep, it's black racist AG Holder. In a plan that could only have been concocted by an Affirmative Action appointee, he insisted that gun shops be not only allowed but also encouraged to sell to known fronts for the gangs. He was going to "track them", apparently in an attempt to blame the violence on Americans (the 'just blame whitey' approach).
The results were that no arrests were made in Mexico as a result of this 3 Stooges scheme, but two of those guns were involved in the murder of a Border Patrol agent.
Being part of the most transparent administration in history, Holder is withholding info and defying subpoenas to cover up his bungling.
Yep, every time I see PBS showing the photos of dead US servicemen, they are almost all White.
Looks like Charlie Rangel was lying again. Who could ever have guessed that a claim of blacks being always the oppressed victims (TradeMark) turned out to be.. a lie???
I wonder if any of those incidents where anti-black pamphlets are found all over college campuses might have been put there by blacks themselves? We need to look into this. Maybe 'proof' of racism can't be just because some negro says so.
Holy crap, what if so many blacks are in prison BECAUSE THEY COMMIT MORE CRIMES?? This deserves some thought.
Back later.
Jobless claims rise......
Food prices rise near record highs.......
Inflation accelerating....
Dollar hits 3 year low.....
1 in 7 on food stamps....
Women and minorities hit hardest....
Expect those photos to be released soon so Obama can deflect from his failed policies.
Who will Obama kill next?
FOX discovers wheel...credits bush.
Ummm...just so you Goobers know...there is a lot of material setting up where OBL would be. You could read Ted Rall...or others who actually spent time in the area.
130 miles is not good enough for an action. But that's OK, you fell for the trope.
Let me see...if DC is the epicenter for my search...OBL could have been Harrisburg, Baltimore, etc.
Keep trying to lie the accomplishment away...it's funny.
Why...oh why do you racists never mention Clarence Thomas as an Affirmative Action choice? He even married a wingnut welfare wite.
No worries......
Obama is spending close to a million dollars on speechwriters,now Obama has hired a teleprompter coach.
What??????? You didn't think Obama wrote those wonderful speeches and had natural teleprompter skills did you? LMAO....
Hey black folks, notice anything over the last couple of days?
Check out how exercised the goobers are and how intensely they are spewing their anti-black hate.
One idiot is ranting about how blacks join the military for benefits and whites join to "serve".
Having served in the military with white dudes who were running from the law back in Gooberville, USA, I know that's a collassal pile of horse$hit if I ever saw one.
Slappz talking about OJ and Michael Jackson for God sakes.
I'm waiting for one of the pineheads to bring up the Bakke decision.
They're flailing wildly and throwing $hit up against the wall to see if anything sticks.
A black man is the leader of the free world and has proven himself to be a shrewd, calm, decisive Commander in Chief.
A brother is in charge.
And all their little fantasies about white supremacy and black incompetence flies out the window.
They have to now deal with the fact that the reason they are picking boogers on the floor of their urine stenched apartments lit only by their computer screens is not because of Affirmative Action because they just plain don't measure up.
UMGOWA!!!
outtatownsteve writers:
Yep. Two iconic black figures who were the inspirations for huge tsunamis of myths, conspiracy theories and outright delusions among blacks.
UTS, nice post!
And yes, Sarey Palin's boy joined to avoid prison....to 'serve'.
-snicker-
You can tell those ChickenHawks never enlisted or accepted a commission. But their blatant ignorance allows them to 'lecture' us on the 'reality' of the US mil.
Really, Gomer P? You 'know'?
Any black folks on here consider OJ an icon?
MJ was Elvis with more talent and a Jehri Curl.
Speaking of myths, where are those WMDs and do you still believe Obama was born in Kenya?
ROTFLMBAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Mold.
UTS, note how Slappy avoided mention of the creepiest FAIL for Affirmative Action, Clarence Thomas. The onliest AfAms he ponderates about are entertainers. You think maybe MJ and OJ play characters? Much like the mighty, mighty salesmen of st reagan and bush?
I thought most wites joined because they fantasized about being more socially elevated in overseas areas. Or dreamed of Europeans being grateful and being less expensive than the US.
Reality was a painful shock to those folks.
Most white guys enlist for the same reasons blacks and hispanics enlist.
No money for college and a chance to learn a skill.
I totally admit that the reason why I enlisted in the US Coast Guard in 1980 was because it was the last year of the Vietnam era GI Bill.
My family couldn't afford to send me and my sister college and I was determined that I would get a degree.
I did my seven years honorably and wouldn't take back one day of experience.
As far as "special forces" go, "Col. Corn" and other goobers claiming that outfits like the Navy Seals and the Green Berets are 95% white simply because whites are better and more dedicated soldiers, their just perpetuating lies.
Those outfits are good ol boy networks that use very subjective criteria to select who can join.
When I joined the USCG I originally wanted to be a rescue swimmer. I was a varsity swimmer in HS and a certified Red Cross Sr. Lifesaver at 16.
I answered the solicitation for CG rescue swimmers my last week of basic training
I went before an all white board of senior enlisted men and junior officers for an interview.
There was a few snide remarks about this black kid from NY York not just wanting to be a rescue swimmer but being able to swim at all.
Then came the swimming test and the water survival test which I aced.
I had done that in Red Cross training 3 years earlier.
When I was done I was told that they would contact me.
I never heard from them.
Was never told why I was rejected.

And you gloat that children must pay for your abject stoopid. Funny, I don't recall children setting up derivatives...or sending the work to low-wage States...or refusing to prosecute Perps. But you, oh brave heroic manly person, dance about in utter delirious glee over the idea that some kids will have a crappy education...and that you had a hand in punishing kids for...being smaller?
Such typical wingnut courage.
Obama administration floats draft plan to tax cars by the mile
By Pete Kasperowicz
The Obama administration has floated a transportation authorization bill that would require the study and implementation of a plan to tax automobile drivers based on how many miles they drive.
Have these nitwits not heard that when you tax a gallon of gasoline, you tax the driver by the number of miles he drives?
In a way, this idea suggests that cars are getting too many miles per gallon for the gasoline tax to raise as much revenue as Obama wants to raise. It appears he wants to hit every driver with a fixed fee per mile driven, regardless of the efficiency of the vehicle itself.
While Obama exempt the Chevy Volt from this insane tax?
Not that it will matter. GM sold only 493 Volts, the $41,000 electyric golf cart, in the month of April. Their mileage tax would amount to nothing.

You don't have the capability to look at facts and reason, this would get others killed.
They look for team players and the strongest men they can find, right away they can see your a whining racist rolling through life on his wheelchair blaming someone else for everything. Not the definition of sacrifice for the team or a team player. They saw that right away and so do we. Your problem is it is not a affirmative action program, you are either the best or you are told you are not and rejected not let in because of your incapabilities and your racism.
"For what it's worth, this is true. Black enrollment is skewed toward support divisions; white enrollment towards combat"
Bull$hit.
During the Vietnam War blacks were 11% of the enlistees and over 20% of the frontline casualties.
Sure you served. In the same unit as Tom Clancy and st reagan and both Quayles.
Umm...you might want to realize that many of us actually have served. We know.
Repeating Gooberish sold to you as 'soldierin'...makes us snicker. If you wish, I can give you websites so that you can enlist.

CORRECTION: Coast Guard
"A black man is the leader of the free world"
CORRECTION: A half white, half African man who co-opted black identity for political gain.
"and has proven himself to be a shrewd, calm, decisive Commander in Chief."
CORRECTION: And was in the room when the program set up by his predecessor got Bin Laden. And talking about "shrewd" operations, how's that quick, easy kill of Gaddhafi going two months later?
So it's "goober" now, huh? You know, I have to chuckle every time I see that goober thing. Even right now :) In fact, at the KKK meeting last night, I told everybody about it. All the guys laughed, every one.
But that's just the problem. It's a little too comical to use as a good insult. Imagine it was years ago, you're at the Atlanta courthouse after the infamous black child murderer was caught and you're holding up signs that say, "It's a lie! We know that the goobers did it!" See what I mean? Nobody'd take you seriously.
Or today, you're out protesting somewhere that you want even more affirmative action freebies, and your signs say, "the goobers are keeping us down!" If goobers are keeping you down, then you're not very powerful, right? That's not the effect you want.
We'll have to work on this and I'm willing to help - because you all are my favorite black racist negroes (except for you-know-who).
"Any black folks on here consider OJ an icon?"
Thrasher does.
"MJ was Elvis with more talent and a Jehri Curl."
And a sick desire to sexually molest very young boys.
btw, for the record, Kim is kinda cute. In her looks, anyway. But her personality has gone downhill lately, hopefully that's just temporary.
See what I mean people? This piece of trash will never be anything but trash, let alone a doctor!
It's actually kind of sad.
quote: "Any black folks on here consider OJ an icon?"
I remember when all you black racist negroes jumped to your feet and cheered when the jury set tha brutha free. You don't do that anymore?
I remember two black female hosts on BET gushing over him on their show. You negroes used to cheer him when he was an honored guest at your rap concerts, too.
Does OJ even know he's not your hero anymore? Is it because he went back to whitey society right after you set him free?
To be honest, I also know of whites who saw OJ on a golf course in FL and rushed over to get his autograph. Funny world.
The Mayor of Uptown said...
LIAR:
SPC, between.
Umm...heroic manly brave hero ChickenHawk...the Coast Guard is a service. Just not one written up in your war pr0n. Would you like to Google it and see exactly what they do?
Or do I still laugh at your slack-jawed ignorance?
Keep trying the olde meme of 'black racists'. While you like to pretend it covers your own issues...it only shows that all you have is 'yer one too!'. I did note you clung to your racism...as it does seem the only thing that gives you pride is the 'at leasts I aints no migger'. Sure. Keep beleeverating. Carry on with the calling others racist the moment your own 'beam' is described. It works....but not as you intend. Call it a marker....letting women know your genes are defective. Showing co-workers your are untrustworthy. Illuminating why you are a 'working foreman' instead of being promoted.
But, I am kind and will inform you of such things. They just let you wallow.
We cheered because instead of a lynching for the death of a white woman...we had a trial. Since the case was not proved...beyond a reasonable doubt...he was not given the traditional witey response to a dead white woman.
Shame that upsets you. Must be you feel a need to 'sacrifice' and AfAm male if some white woman dies. How about you? Going to volunteer to be in a prison? How about wite-suttee?
Must rankle you that OJ was treated somewhat generally like a white suspect. BTK ring a bell? Maybe that is someone you should be asking to have 'punished' for your 'urges'?
well, since you black racist negroes a have brought up military enlistment, you all might want to recall the news story some months back about how the entrance exam has been dumbed down so much, but still the vast majority of negroes fail.
That's the path you people have chosen with the "we're all the same, united together" approach: those of you who are actually smart inevitably get grouped in with the others. You should have thought about that when you gave up any individualism in order to become part of the negro tide.
But the word "individualism" is not found in ebonics.

Soon after the black racist jury set OJ free despite overwhelming evidence, similar black racists did the same for the Crown Heights Killer in NYC. They even took him out to dinner afterward. He has since admitted the crime.
He was dirt poor, unlike white Leona Helmsley, who did go to prison for tax evasion - despite her billions and 'expensive lawyers'. What did OJ have that she didn't? A black racist jury to set her free, the same as Lemrick Nelson did.

The only thing that is sad is that you are a sick, sadistic fuck who actually believes that saying the same ol' bullshit to an obvisouly highly ambitious Black woman, diverts me from my goal which was started LONG before I ever knew such a stalking wack ass psycho like YOU existed.

Now I married a Navy man, so the fact that I can light your stupid ass like a Christmas tree with few choice words should be NO suprise. And if that makes me "ghetto" to you, I don't really give a flying fuck, you ain't shit, and ain't never gonna be shit anyway!
So go jerk yourself a soda!!!

Now am I finally clear, Goober?
I agree with Obama's order to not release the photos of bin Laden. They would just inflame, and also be decried as fakes at the same time. I don't know, though, if the decision was actually made by Obama or by his bosses... you know, the bankers of Wall St.

Oh okay. Another ignorant pantload unfamiliar with the long and honored tradition of the US Coast Guard, America's FIRST military service.
"CORRECTION: A half white, half African man who co-opted black identity for political gain."
Up until Obama became President goobers like you had no problem categorizing people with one eigth black ancestry as Negroes. No you want to quibble. And PUH-LEEZE explain how black identity is a political advantange. Given the fact that all 43 of his predecessors were white men.
"CORRECTION: And was in the room when the program set up by his predecessor got Bin Laden."
If that's the case why didn't Bush just get Bin Laden himself?
BTW, how is Bush responsible for Bin Laden's death but not responsible for the recession?

That's a good point. No matter how successful a black person becomes, they cling to the resentment of the lowest ghetto thug. By setting the bar to the impossible goal of every single black person living a life of ease and privilege, they sentence themselves to a life of anger and bitterness no matter what their true circumstances may be.
Anger is source of power over the white man, but it has it's price.
Mayor Goober
You have to get your information from somewhere other than rightwing rags.
"The Vietnam War saw the highest proportion of blacks ever to serve in an American war. During the height of the U.S. involvement, 1965-69, blacks, who formed 11 percent of the American population, made up 12.6 percent of the soldiers in Vietnam. The majority of these were in the infantry, and although authorities differ on the figures, the percentage of black combat fatalities in that period was a staggering 14.9 percent, a proportion that subsequently declined. Volunteers and draftees included many frustrated blacks whose impatience with the war and the delays in racial progress in America led to race riots on a number of ships and military bases, beginning in 1968, and the services' response in creating interracial councils and racial sensitivity training. . ."

"Now am I finally clear, Goober?"
Oh, it's very clear what a stupid piece of trash you are. The profanity gives you away.
When did your Navy husband leave you? Or is he waiting for the final medical school rejection?
Either way, it's inevitable.
More for Mayor Goober from the same link.
"African Americans often did supply a disproportionate number of combat troops, a high percentage of whom had voluntarily enlisted. Although they made up less than 10 percent of American men in arms and about 13 percent of the U.S. population between 1961 and 1966, they accounted for almost 20 percent of all combat-related deaths in Vietnam during that period. In 1965 alone African Americans represented almost one-fourth of the Army's killed in action. In 1968 African Americans, who made up roughly 12 percent of Army and Marine total strengths, frequently contributed half the men in front-line combat units, especially in rifle squads and fire teams. Under heavy criticism, Army and Marine commanders worked to lessen black casualties after 1966, and by the end of the conflict, African American combat deaths amounted to approximately 12 percent—more in line with national population figures. Final casualty estimates do not support the assertion that African Americans suffered disproportionate losses in Vietnam, but this in no way diminishes the fact that they bore a heavy share of the fighting burden, especially early in the conflict."
Don't try to fuck with me Jethro.

Looks like a very interesting & informative site, to me.
Now lets all ask ourselves a question.Are these the post of black women who have multiple degrees?
Or do these post make you think they are Lakesha's from the hood?
They insult,talk sh*t,act brave, until you ask them to back up what they post about themselves with proof.
Than they get real quiet and they stop posting.
Its sad to see black women with such low self esteem.
"Sorry upbutt, but facts is facts, and the myth of minority overrepresentaiton in military casualties is just that."
Obviously not since LBJ had to take direct action in lowering the amount of black servicemen being served up as fodder during the early escalation of the Vietnam War (1965-67) when black combat casualties were 20%.
Okay, so now I know I'm dealing with a hateful ass bitch, Miss UNsophisticated, one who couldn't pay a man to have sex with her. I'm also guessing you're the bitch using your worthless marine biology degree aka toilet paper, searching for oil deposits in the oysters from the Gulf of Mexico.
What's VERY clear that you're nothing but a wack ass stalker, jealous you were too stupid to even think about applying to the universities I've GRADUATED from.
And you stalk me EVERYDAY, MULTIPLE times a day, because you KNOW I'm going to be a Doctor. YOU KNOW I'M GOING TO BE A DOCTOR and it's eats away at you DAILY like a cancer!!!!!!!!
So since it's clear you hate yourself immensely, due the world a favor and off yourself.

And I look forward to your perverted vagina obsessed alter ego to join in too!
First, let me say a belated hello to DesertFlower, Field, Steve, Ann G. Myma, and anyone else that I missed returning a greeting too, but I had signed off before y'all said hello to me in the comment section.
Now, for the topic at hand. Field, that was an awesome post and like CaryCary, I too noticed that people missed the point of it. When I saw the picture before I read what you wrote, I discerned right away where you were going with it. The picture tells it all. Oh well...like it is said those that eyes to see...see! Those that have ears to hear...hear!
Anyway, I think it is sadistic and gross to want to view a dead body that has been shot all up, bloody, and not prepared by an undertaker for viewing. It's not a pretty sight. Why they would want to subject Americans to that is beyond gross to me as well as sick minded.
Nevertheless, what the right is doing is calling the President of the USA, the Intelligence Committee which consist of Repub and Dems, the CIA, and Military LIARS! Yup, the grand ole party who are masters of deception themselves are calling the folks in charge a liar all because of the color of his skin whether they want to admit that or not.
That's so disrespectful, but what do you expect from barbarians. It's in their nature to act uncivilized, insensitive, with a lack of empathy. I agree with the President, they are a silly bunch of folks and they act so juvenile.
Oh well...let them do what they do because it is going to backfire on them! Yup, because whatever slides under the snakes belly got to come across its back too.

"Up until Obama became President goobers like you had no problem categorizing people with one eigth black ancestry as Negroes."
Truthfully, I care very little about racial categorization, and consider culture to be the most signifcant characterisitc when evaluating people I don't know personally.
For the record, Obama's ancestry is:
White American (European descent): 50%
Black East African (Kenyan): 50%
African American (descended of slaves brought from West Africa): 0%
Culturally, Obama was raised by his his leftist mother and her leftist parents, with some input from his Indonesian stepfather. There was zero input from his African father.
The American part of his childhood took place in Hawaii, a place that never had slaves and had almost no black people in the 1960's.
When he went to college at Occidental, he hung around exclusivley with foreign students and marxist professors. Ditto for Columbia, with the addition of a gay roomate.
The whole being black thing didn't really start until he hooked up with Michelle and moved to Chicago.
Most white people in this country had a more culturally "black" upbringing than Obama had.
I will admit that he has been consistent in placing his first loyalties to Black America, and that perhaps his looking more like African Americans than any other President gives this effort some legitimacy, but in the end an act, no matter how sincerely played, is still just an act.
He's beneath you.senile steve

Just do what mold does.Stop posting for the rest of the day and begin anew Friday.You can reinvent yourself and make new claims while pretending no one remembers your lies.
Than most certainly you are wrong.I love everyone.
SPC, why do you lie...when you could be honest? You are not likely to 'out' me for your stalking needs...so you are more than welcome to show error. Which you have consistently avoided.
I still only use one nom de Internets...and if you would like, I can reveal your sockpuppetry.
Perhaps you should focus on gaining knowledge and experience...and speaking to what you actually do know.
Love how the wingnut makes the Appeal to Authority...then removes all vestiges of honesty in the remainder of their post. King of his own Gooberverse. Marxist professors...you really should attend classes. Then you would find out why the lie of Marxist academics is only able to be sold to uneducated saps. Oh, what about your Foley, Craig, Haggard, Limbaugh, Daniels, Graham??? Your point, again?
Love the quick dismissal of the 'one-drop' rule. Can you show your sources? I can.
Keep making it up. While it worked for st reagan and bush...they were far better salesmen.

Or you might spew some goober$hit like "no real negro goes to Columbia and Harvard."
You still haven't answer why his self-identification as a black American was a political advantage.
Don't worry, I don't expect an answer.

And I am curious as to why you would be jealous of lil' old me...doing things...but not the slightest bit upset that others inherited their money and rewards.
As far as you trying to say that I am lying about having served and being a preacher....it is too late. I have served...I have been a preacher...and your pouting and hoperating are last attempts. If that is all you have..you are done.

uptownsteve said..."And what would be the racial difference between a black African Kenyan and an African-American in your mind?"
Most American blacks are descended from people brought from West Africa.
West Africans and East Africans are very different peoples. Genetically, they are more different than an Irishman is from a Japanese.
Africa, being the cradle of humanity, has more genetic diversity than the rest of the world combined. Geneticists have identified at least 12 distinct population groups in Africa. The rest of the world is descended from probably at most three of these groups from north-east Africa.
Outside of the genetic evidence, East and West Africans look very different from one another. They also have a quite different distribution in physical talents.
For example, 99 of the top times in the 100 meter dash were posted by men of West African descent. There are none by East Africans.
East Africans are utterly dominant in races around 10,000 meters, and almost utterly dominant in marathons (eg Kenyans at the Boston marathon). There are no top West African distance runners.
anon@2:46p why you want to come down on granny? she was only speaking fact. the fact she has a big ego that brags is no reason to bust her ego. leave her alone.
btw, granny..people have left comments to you on your own blog. that's not cool to ignore them while you blog on fn. if you gonna be a person of good character and then you need to have the decency to reply to your own followers. that's how you show some respect to your fellow humans.

Yet you want to console them???
I'll never understand you self hating slave catchers if I live to be one hundred.
UTS, Goober speaks to the class and education issues...and reminds them that no matter how much they kiss Koch...they will never be invited to the Big House.
Who died for the South? Not their bush or Cheney counterparts...it was the slavecropper whites, the barely subsistence whites.
There is also the impotent rage they feel when denigrated by their vastly social and economic superior...who has darker skin.
Oh, and the idea that AfAms have multiple degrees while they have, at best, a breathing certificate from a high school...must really hurt.
Well, they are welcome at any time to join the Human Race...and I will cease tweaking their racist idiot plexus.
Looks like King Goober is an armchair geneticist.
"Most American blacks are descended from people brought from West Africa."
"West Africans and East Africans are very different peoples. Genetically, they are more different than an Irishman is from a Japanese."
So says King Goober.
"East Africans are utterly dominant in races around 10,000 meters, and almost utterly dominant in marathons (eg Kenyans at the Boston marathon). There are no top West African distance runners."
So how do you explain that Obama is a basketball player?
The fools are desperately trying to make Obama something other than an African-American.
They just CANNOT and WILL NOT accept that one of the same people they've despised, feared, resented and scapegoated is now their leader.
It's really pretty pathetic to watch.
uts, "And as for you, you nauseating, goat smellin, butt sniffin Uncle Tom, don't you see the racist filth these anons and SPC are spewing on this board today?"
Now see. you can use powerful degrading hurtful words for your own people. Words like "nauseating, goat smellin, butt sniffin Uncle Tom" carries power and smashes your black brother. However, when it comes to Whites, you use weak-ass words that Willie the clown would use to make Whites laugh... like "goober".
White Foreman is right. You must work on your white name-calling cause it is worthless. He has offered to help you. I see nothing wrong with that. You need help.
uts said, "Yet you want to console them???
I'll never understand you self hating slave catchers if I live to be one hundred."
Should I be helping a black man who uses the word "goober" as an insult to Whites? GET REAL. I'd rather try to work something out with White Foreman than with you. The odds of a better outcome are higher.
uts-"The fools are desperately trying to make Obama something other than an African-American.
It's really pretty pathetic to watch."
your thinking is waaay off uts. but your thinking has always been off the chart. i guess me telling you this won't make a difference because you are crazy. ever try to tell a crazy person they are crazy? it don't mean a thing to them cause when you are crazy you don't know you are crazy. i hope they put you away before you get worse. you really shouldn't be on the streets.
steve is senile remember? nothing he says makes sense except ten percent of the time or less and that is more troof then that filth pile posts here all day...tragic!!!
uptownsteve said..."You still haven't answer why his self-identification as a black American was a political advantage."
You are kidding, right? There is no way a white man with his resume gets elected President.
Admittedly, there is no way a black man with George W. Bush's resume gets elected President either.
But Obama had almost zero experience working for a living, zero experience running anything, zero military experience, a zero accomplishment term as a State Senator where he voted "present" 80% of the time, and about 6 months of an undistinguished Senate career before starting his run for President.
He was an attractive, articulate guy with nice suits. But there a lots of such guys; they're called salesmen.
"Black" was all he had.
If his name was Barry Dunham and his hair a little straighter, no one would have ever considered him Presidential material.
The very idea that he could have gotten into Columbia or Harvard, let alone ever been President without consciously adopting a "Black" identity is delusional, to say the least.
"So says King Goober."
So say population geneticists. And it's "Gubaire".
"So how do you explain that Obama is a basketball player?"
So is Dirk Nowitzki. And, btw, Obama's not a player. He sucks. I would whoop his ass one on one.
UTS, I agree. When bush was appointed to office, all was good and just and wonderful. Who cared if the economy tanked, Perps were not charged, vote fraud went unchallenged, people drowned, we kidnapped people to be unwilling actors in torture flicks, and the office holder was demonstrably incompetent?
Now with that KenyanSoshlustMooslim popularly and Electorally holding the office..things get done. We have RomneyCare, we just avoided the Depression (poor rich folks won't have cheap labour and be able to buy our stuff for pennies), OBL is gone, the World stopped sniggering at the US...but it all eveel. He is not legit. Because...well...some reason...can't say what it is exactly...but drooling incest products everywhere are untied in their beleef that he is unworthy to lead.
At least the US skinheads are honest about why.
I am black and I served seven years in the U.S. Army (2001 - 2008). And the person who commented about racial proportions is somewhat correct.
A military occupational specialty (MOS) falls in three categories combat arms (CA), combat support (CS) and combat service support (CSS). I served in the Signal Corps (combat support). Further, I served in a "special mission unit."
All three areas (CA, CS and CSS) are majority white. You see more blacks in CS and CSS, with the most in CSS.
Having served in CS, I can tell you that some CS elements are embedded within a higher CA element. In my case, I served in a signal troop that was part of an cavalry squadron, which is in a cavalry regiment.
I joined the signal corps, because my recruiter encouraged me based on my test scores. Further, I studied Computer Information Systems in college.
Some of the whites and blacks who enlist in CA have a true sense of patriotism, selfless service and adventure. Some enlist in CA, because that's all they qualified for. And some reenlist to get a occupational specialty that is in CS or CSS. It is upon this premise that I say the person who commented on the racial disparity between CA, CS and CSS is somewhat correct.
I also had the privilege to serve in a special mission unit. Again, those units are majority white. Again, some of the whites and blacks who served/volunteered in these units had a sense of adventure. Others, volunteered to get away from the monotony of the regular army. All are exceptional at their craft whether its CA, CS or CSS. Because all three branches work together to accomplish the mission.
I hate to read people making comments about the military, when it is obvious they never served a day and are citing statistics that they got from an shady source.

Obama has decreed that pictures of the dead Osama bin Laden shall not be released, lest Muslims be angered:
"In explaining his choice not to release the photo, Mr. Obama said that "we don't need to spike the football." He said that "given the graphic nature of these photos it would create a national security risk."
But the Islamopanderer in Chief isn't always averse to releasing photos that might inflame Muslims. From last week:
"President Barack Obama is to release up to 2,000 photographs of alleged abuse at American prisons in Iraq and Afghanistan in a move which will reignite the scandal surrounding Abu Ghraib prison in 2004.
The decision to make public the images sought in a legal action by the American Civil Liberties Union comes amid a political firestorm over alleged torture of detainees under President George W. Bush.
Some of the photographs, which will be released before May 28, are said to show American service personnel humiliating prisoners, according to officials. …
The Pentagon fears a backlash in the Middle East similar to the one provoked by pictures from Abu Ghraib prison, near Baghdad, in 2004 which became emblematic of American mistakes in Iraq.
Amrit Singh, an ACLU lawyer, said that "these photographs provide visual proof that prisoner abuse by US personnel was not aberrational but widespread, reaching far beyond the walls of Abu Ghraib".
Assisting the ACLU in demonizing the USA and whipping up Islamic bloodlust are par for the course for President Obama. But pictures of a dead terrorist must be suppressed in the interests of security. Anyone who buys this deserves Obama for a president.
Goober? Cracker?
So those two words are some people's ideas of insults. Hmmm.
You'll have to try a lot harder to find words that can offend whites.
Calling white Americans goobers or crackers is about as hurtful as calling us "meanies".
Let me step in for a second and make something perfectly clear. Believe who you may, but I'd suggest taking a deep examination of the statistic and listen to those who lived the experience.
re: blacks in the military during the viet nam war and racism.
Look at the following statistics, and whatever fits you fancy, consider a +10% and -10% error in any number. Not an error in a percent but a whole number. I hope y'all understand that, but lets take a look at the following.
"Although they made up less than 10 percent of American men in arms and about 13 percent of the U.S. population between 1961 and 1966, they accounted for almost 20 percent of all combat-related deaths in Vietnam during that period. In 1965 alone African Americans represented almost one-fourth of the Army's killed in action. In 1968 African Americans, who made up roughly 12 percent of Army and Marine total strengths, frequently contributed half the men in front-line combat units, especially in rifle squads and fire teams"
Wow, for the "math" challenged lets use simple numbers. Be honest (if you care to) and look at what those numbers are saying. In 1965, if there was 100 soldiers, 10 of them were black(1 out of 10). Now, to show the larger picture, increase the number to 1000 soldiers, 250 of the black soldiers died! NOT 1 out of 10, 1 out of 4! That's a huge disparity. Why?
Racism. For those that don't know it, members of the military that find themselves in jobs/careers in the armed forces that require they be in high death rate occupations, do not always choose those position, and I know this to be a fact, I lived through it and have knowledge directly related to the subject at hand. There are thousands of jobs in the military and many have nothing to do with carrying a weapon. Picture the military as a city or a state, to get a better understanding. Look around at ALL the jobs in that city. Now you see the military... banks, buses,restaurants, planes, cars, police, toilets need fixing, streets need cleaning, clothes need clening, dayy care centers, you local gym, hospitals, entertainers, air traffic controllers, church and it's personel, travel agencies, nightclubs, etc, and they are all run by military personel.
cont....
Uh huh. Yeah. I thought so. It's just as I said, you're full of shit, and a liar.
cont...
Now, those jobs are not assigned by someone picking out of a hat... oh no. And many of them can be filled by anyone that passed the exam to get into the military. So again, who places the individuals in those jobs?
Let me tell you something, I worked in personnel, it was the job I wanted and knew I had before I set foot in bootcamp. I was like Ali, I was treated like an underclass citizen in the USA but I was suppose to kill some people on their lands? That made no sense to me, and it's been proven that we lost thousands of live for absolutely nothing (check out the history of the Viet Nam war).
Anyway, in my job I was privy to all the information of every servicemen that came to the base, medical records, everything. Also, I saw the tears and the look in many soldiers eyes when they were told what their jobs were going to be. And listen, as I said, unless it was a high tech job, like flying aircraft and/or special skills and physical limitations, the jobs went to who you knew and the color of you skin. I saw all the test score and the color of each individuals skin. I knew every job that was offered by the military and how many position/slots they had in each. Many don't know this or understand how that works, but just like a city, there will only be a certain number of firemen (yes, that a military job).
Now, jobs are assigned by a unit at what is call a headquarters base. Those that work their (most) fall under the classification of "personnel" type soldiers. They assign jobs/careers and who will be stationed where.
I can go deeper but I am sure you get my drift. Well, in one case, I was processing in a black soldier and he began asking me how he could change his M.O., in the Air Force they call them AFSC (job classifications). He was not only in his quandrary, I saw hundreds just like him. Anyway, I noticed that his test scores would put him in the top 5% but he was assigned a job as a cook. He had been bamboozled by his recruiter and the system.
I am telling y'all what I know, not what someone told me.
Again, I can go much deeper. Some in this tread were making assumption on why each race chose the military. Well, much of the opinions were simply not true. Humans are humans, and I talked with and saw the records of thousand. They came from every small town, dusty road, big cities and small cities, and in such, their needs a desires were all different which ahd little or nothing to do with the color of their skin. Some of the poorest people and dumbest people I met while in the military were white folks.

Someone I know very well enlisted in the Air Force in 1970. He wanted to become a military journalist. Because his test scores were at the top of the scale, his recruiter promised him that journalism training and a communications job would be his. He signed the contract.
After boot camp, the Air Force sent him for training in Security and made him an AP, a cop. In 1971 he was sent to Vietnam where he guarded planes parked on the runway at Tan Son Nhut Air Base.
After he had been guarding aircraft for several months, the Viet Cong launched an attack on the air base, firing their weapons as they ran across the tarmac. He was shot in the chest.
The bullet went through one lung, but missed his heart, spine and other important body parts.
He survived, though he has a huge Frankenstein scar running from his chest, under his arm and around his back. At that time recruiters told 18 year old kids whatever they wanted to hear.
Struck a nerve?

Yeah slappy, that was a common sales pitch. They would convence the recruit that he was going to part of the "police" unit. Well, that sounds nice, but their shread-out (classification) was different from what they thought they would be doing. Can you imagine standing on a flightline, cold as hell, guarding a damn plane... ALL NIGHT LONG, every day. Nobodie is out there but you and maybe another guy, who is not within yelling distance. It was a horrible job!
Yep, they called them security police. Yep, policing an area in the most remote areas of the world. Detectives, and those that performed actual police work (law enforcement) had a different title.
Man, I got stories, some dudes would offer to pay me to change their test score so they could apply for cross-training. Also, the bases they were sent to - every soldier (some next to hell)depended on test scores and other factors in their records. A security clearence could be denied for a multitude of things, including bad credit. All
