Is Rush Limbaugh overdosing on Viagra again? Or is this a hideous act of desperation since it is painfully obvious that John McCain ran one the worst campaigns in America history? Well, with the conservative movement literally self-destructing before our eyes, he had to take the low road and start showing his true racist colors. It is unconscionable that he could resort to spewing racial hatred at some a critical moment in our country's history. He basically said that blacks in general are lazy, angry, and engaged in a three decades old plot to train black children as militants against the US? Oooh, I'm scared.... Yeah, it's the angry black terrorists palling around with the Alaska Independence Party. Give me a break.
Here's an excerpt of that nutjob's words....
Limbaugh: "We know that technological advancement is going along at light speed. And yet during this period of time, whether it be the last 57 years or be it the last 20 years, it seems that a majority of the black population has remained angry, frustrated, and behind. They've been left behind. They are acting like they've been left behind, and of course we've heard that this is because of racism, natural systemic institutional racism in America, that we are unfair, that this country is just horrible and rotten."
"The federal government became the father. The father didn't have to hang around in order for the kids to be okay, depending on how you define okay. But as you study more and more of this ACORN stuff, you find that it has been part of an entire movement that has been going on for two, maybe three decades, right under our noses." Wait, wasn't John McCain at an ACORN event a few years ago, extolling the virtues of the group?
"We thought that it was just liberal welfare policies and all that that kept blacks from progressing while other minorities grew and prospered, but no, it is these wackos from Bill Ayers to Jeremiah Wright to other anti-American Afrocentric black liberation theologists with ACORN, and Barack Obama is smack dab in the middle of it, they have been training young black kids to hate, hate, hate this country, and they trained their parents before that to hate, hate, hate this country. It was a movement. It was a Bill Ayers, anti-capitalist, anti-American educational movement. ACORN is how it was implemented, right under our noses.It has been a movement, it has been a religion, and Obama and Jeremiah Wright and William Ayers were all up to their big ears in it."
I grew up in Jamaica, where a good education and hard work were the hallmarks of success and prosperity. I am an African American by naturalization and I have never taught my kids to be anything but the best they can possibly be. I have imparted the same values my parents instilled in me. I am proof to my children that a good education, good grades, community service and a driving ambition to be the very best that you can be are paramount. I live in a predominantly white town and my children have a lot of white friends, who have never made them feel anything but being a good friend who shares their values. I have never taught my kids to depend on the system, because my husband and I don't espouse those values. It is a travesty that America is no more progressive than some of the very countries it decries.
What is sad is that Rush Limbaugh appeals to a wide base in the conservative movement. Therefore, it is safe to say that they share the sames values. That is sad and unfortunate that we, as a country try to berate China and Cuba about their human rights issues, when many in this country are seemingly violently opposed to a black man becoming the president of the United States. This speaks volumes that they would rather vote for a idiot than an educated, progressive, hardworking and decent man. The whole world is watching and as Rep. John Lewis right stated, this atmosphere of racial tension is a stark reminder of the segregation and George Wallace's desire to keep it going. Rush Limbaugh you are a disgrace and you seem to have become really cocky again since your criminal prescription drug activities have been resolved. Let me end by saying, not all blacks are lazy. There are many whites in this country who are meth addicts, on welfare and criminals as well. There are many decent blacks as there are whites in this country. You, my friend, had better take heed to the saying, if you live in a glass house, don't throw stones.....
