Let’s Hope The Boston Marathon Bomber Is A White AmericanStage Two:
The Boston Bombers Were Muslim: So?Cut-out-and-keep these two headlines, and you too can be on top of the conventional wisdom within moments of the next atrocity.
“I look in the mirror and say I’m not the strapping young Muslim Socialist that I used to be,” Obama quipped at one point, reflecting on how he’s aged into a second term.While he was kidding about himself, Obama sharpened his sword when it came to the GOP.True for once! He was kidding, he's no longer young and never was strapping!
Why are liberals afraid of black conservatives? | Washington Times Communities"The Democratic Party and our mercenary black leaders won’t willingly give up the power and perks they’ve gathered on the backs of black America. Believe me, the biggest weapon the Republican Party has today is the black conservative. The Democrats know it, the race-bait-pimps and poverty princes like Sharpton and Jackson know it, and the media that move to destroy black conservatives whenever they can know it best of all. That is probably why the likes of Jackson and the MSNBC talking heads do not debate men like Ben Carson or Thomas Sowell."
"...after a White House Deputies Meeting on Saturday, September 15, 2012, the Administration altered the talking points to remove references to the likely participation of Islamic extremists in the attacks… removed references to the threat of extremists linked to al-Qa’ida in Benghazi and eastern Libya, including information about at least five other attacks against foreign interests in Benghazi."It is called perjury!
"Dr. Biden is not alone in having recognized the virtue of pretending to be a doctor in public. The L.A. Times has identified a “select group of non-medicos who are routinely referred to as ‘Dr.’” The most prominent of these are Dr. Cornel West and Dr. Maya Angelou. Given his leveling views, quite why Cornel West insists upon describing himself as “Dr. West” is beyond me. Still, whatever the reason, at least he actually uses his Princeton doctorate, in academia. Maya Angelou’s title is derived from the more than 30 honorary doctorates that she has been awarded. Why does she add the “Dr.”? “The Ph.D. system,” complains the renegade British-American physicist Freeman Dyson, “is the real root of the evil of academic snobbery. People who have Ph.D.s consider themselves a priesthood.” Ah, that’s why."To add "insult to irony," during the period of Southern Jim Crow, the title of "Dr." was bestowed on black men by whites to get around calling them "Mr."
Whites much preferred to give blacks honorary titles, such as Doctor, or Professor, or Reverend, in order to avoid calling them Mister. While the term "nigger" was universally used, some whites were uncomfortable with it because they knew it was offensive to most blacks. As a substitute, the word "niggra" often appeared in polite society.
So he blew up an eight-year old boy and a couple of hundred other Americans.And now the media are full of stories about how the Tsarnaevs were all-American kids and “beautiful, beautiful boys” and maybe it was the boxing or the Ben Affleck movies or the classical music but, whatever it was, it was nothing to do with Islam. Nothing whatever.
-go to links-Given the layers of irony, sarcasm and joking often employed on Twitter, it can be difficult to parse the messages of a stranger. Yet some of them can seem menacing or portentous, given what we now suspect: “a decade in america already, I want out,” “Never underestimate the rebel with a cause” or “No one is really violent until they’re with the homies.” But others suggest a more Holden Caulfield-like adolescent alienation: “some people are just misunderstood by the world thus the increase of suicide rates.”
