JP, have you ever actually
talked a black person about politics? Do you know any? I mean outside of whoever might show up at your local Republican club meeting.
Snood made fun of these black "achievers" because their "achievements" consist exclusively of telling white people what they want to hear about blacks. These people have no standing-none-in the black community at all. They just put on their little show for their white audiences and collect the money. Their conservative audiences lap it up, then go listen to their favorite talk show host rail against the latest "outrage" of the Black Congressional Caucus, Jesse Jackson, and just about any group or individual with actual support among the black population.
well, I think maybe that is a little strong. I mean Condi Rice is a political ass licking sycophant and no doubt about it but to be fair she's no dumb ass and didn't gt where she is strictly by shufflin' fo massa. She is smart and got her education on her own merit.
What makes her what she is is how she has chosen to use her gifts. That doesn't mean she didn't work hard to get in the position to do so. To state either by belief or inference that the current crop of blacks in high position are there because they Tomed their way to it is innaccurate and unfair IMO.
I also don't think you believe that kelticwizard and I'm not accusing you of it but it did sort of sound that way. Excuse me if I misread.
Condi Rice still sucks though IMO.
Stumble It!
