Here my latest entry, to my column called Slightly Right:
I am writing this because it needs to be written, especially from someone of my political leanings.Ā Today was quite the interesting day when it comes to race relations.Ā Earlier in the day, our Country’s new Attorney General; Eric Holder, castigated the United States of America, by saying that we were a “Nation of cowards,” when it comes to race relations.Ā I found this to be quite the interesting remark considering that the United States of America just elected an African-American as the Nation’s 44’th President,Ā not to mention the fact that Congress just confirmed Eric Holder to be the first African-American Attorney General. This is a form of race baiting, not to mention that fact that it is a form of stoking the racial resentment in this country.Ā Conversely, this is what the Democratic Party promotes and even encourage within the Party.Ā In the Democratic Party, it always seems like it is still 1964, before the civil rights act was passed. The Democratic Party does this, so that they can control the people and keep them around for the votes come election time.Ā Someone who is a bit nastier than me would refer to them as “useful idiots,” However; I am not that kind of a person.
What I just wrote about is just one of the many culprits of racial disharmony in this country and is commonly found in the Liberal circles.Ā Another culprit that is, in this writer’s opinion, just as bad a race baiting and that is abject racism.Ā A sick example of that is the cartoon that was published in the New York Post yesterday.Ā The cartoon was supposedly, and I use that term in the strongest way possible, a piece of satire.Ā The problem is the only person or persons that were laughing, was the man who drew the cartoon and the editorial staff at The New York Post. The rest of sane rational America was standing with their arms folded and toes tapping wondering just what were the New York Post thinking, when they allowed this cartoon to published?
As I have written on my blog many times, racism is just plain wrong, as is Race Baiting and this continual stoking of the racial resentments in this Country.Ā I will be the first person to admit, that the Liberals do the stoking, just as much as those of the Conservative side of the political fence.Ā It is this writers opinion that the only thing worse than a race baiter, who continually attempts to stoke the resentment between the races by continually waving the victim flag every time someone says something that is considered out of line or politically incorrect. Ā That is the person in the Anglo-Saxon race that says or does something intentionally offensive to cause those of the African-American race to have a knee jerk reaction. Ā This is more of that stoking of the flames of the historic racial resentment.
The cartoon that was published yesterday by the New York Post was classless, tasteless and downright offensive, considering that this Nation just recently took a major step, in a long list of steps of burying this nations past of ugliness towards those of the African-American race.Ā The only purpose of that cartoon was to stoke the flames of the resentment between the Black and White races in the country.Ā Furthermore, the response of the New York Post Editorial board when pressed about the issue was the typical arrogant demagoguery position of that paper.
Frankly, I am quite shocked that Rupert Murdoch, a man who is supposedly a born-again Christian and himself a immigrant from Australia would even allow this sort of tripe to be published in one of his newspapers. I do truly believe that in the quest to strike a humorous home run, the New York Post unfortunately stuck out, and quite horribly so.
