It’s Disappointing

For those of us who actually believed our country had virtually repaired the racial wounds during the 45 years since the civil rights act, the last few months have been soberingly disappointing.

Oh sure, we accepted that there would always be the race-baiters like Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and Charlie Rangel who make their living off this sort of thing, but we thought we were all fairly color-blind. The first jolt for us in that belief was, after Barack Obama became a serious candidate, a steady stream of Black Americans called the talk shows and proudly asserted they would vote for Obama against whomever he opposed, regardless of his views, but simply because he was their color. Then came the publicity about Obama’s 20-year relationship with a man he called his mentor, Minister Jeremiah Wright, who has publicly made the most hateful anti-white and anti-American statements since the Black Panthers. Even the, liberal media, although ethically handicapped by its customary political correctness, and almost giddy with its Obama bias, had no choice but to print this stuff. Add in the comments Michelle Obama made about never being proud to be an American and anti-white sentiments in her college thesis. Now, I see that the NAACP has asked racist Wright to be keynote speaker at their annual meeting. It’s never ending; in the last couple of days we’ve learned that Obama also had a friendly relationship with Bill Ayers, a former member of the anarchist group, the Weather Underground, a man who set off bombs in government buildings and said, "I don't regret setting bombs; I feel we didn't do enough.” He lived for years with Bernardine Dohrn, whom the FBI considered the most dangerous woman in America. Are you ready for the final note to the Ayers story? He is currently a Professor of Education at the University of Illinois at Chicago. Pretty shocking, but then, our colleges are saturated with anti-American, Socialist, left-wingers. That’s where they go to get a lifetime secured job indoctrinating young people.
