The "Racism" Cry Returns

Did it ever leave? We have numerous black people in high office all over this country, including the president's cabinet. But that doesn't deter "race pimps" such as Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton from their "extortion" of big corporations by the threat of accusations of racism, or the likes of Rev. Jeremiah Wright from spitting their poison from the pulpit!. And the more they shout it out, the more people who "don't pay attention" buy it and repeat it themselves. I read about an elderly black man whose son thinks a lot of him who has had a lot of good things happen to him in his life, but who agrees with Rev. Wright that "racism" is "pushing black people down," even today because of ONE thing that happened to him, years ago. It doesn't even matter to him that a black man is "within a whisker" of becoming president of the United States, or that there are several black people in the president's own Cabinet, and numerous black people, male and female, are in bureaucratic positions, both in the federal government, and in state and local governments, all over the country, including the South, where it was once thought to be an "impossible thing." One of the best known black mayors is Ray Nagin, mayor of New Orleans. I just don't buy that "racism" crap in America today. And it's only going to get worse as EVERY criticism of Obama, if he is elected, will be called "racism." And if he doesn't, THAT will be called "racism." We just can't win. (American Thinker)
