I’m looking over at “The Corner” and I see this little nugget of Goldie reacting to line in “The One’s” Speech:
No, “they” didn’t. Slaves certainly didn’t endure the lash of the of the whip out of a sense of service and sacrifice for us. That is one of the reasons slavery is so evil; it isn’t voluntary. Suffice it to say that if that line had come out of a different man’s mouth it would not be nearly so well-received. Nor did those immigrants make their sacrifices for “us.” They made them for themselves, for their own pursuit of happiness, for their families.
Which proves to me, that White Conservatives, (Well, except for me, because I grew up in the inner city) just do not understand black culture, at all.
Jonah, I know this might be hard for you to believe, but Obama was NOT referring to General America, you idiot; he was referring to BLACK AMERICA!
It’s no wonder that Conservatives in general, not to mention the Republican Party as a whole; are so damned out of touch with the rest of America.
