Visitors from the past

Imagine if Frederick Douglass, Booker T. Washington, W. E. B. Dubois, Harriet Tubman and other black freedom fighters, civil rights leaders and educators from from the past were to somehow transmit themselves in to 21st Century America.

They were informed about Barrack Obama, Colin Powell, Clarence Thomas, Condoleeza Rice, Eric Holder, Loretta Lynch and other black Americans who are in, or have been in positions of power and influence all across the country.

They find out about the major cities that are dominated and run by black Americans and they can’t believe it. They look at the military where blacks are respected and have an equal chance of climbing the Military ranks and it brings a smile to their face. Imagine their surprise when these honorable people find out that a black four star general is in charge of the U.S. Military and international forces in the strategic contingency theater of Korea.

In addition to all of this they learn about affirmative action, and all of the programs that many well intentioned politicians and others have put in place to help lift black people out of poverty and in the effort move them forward.

As these stalwarts of history continue to learn about the modern world, they learn about Brown vs Board of education. They learn that the KKK has been neutered and holds no political sway in the country. Everyone of them is pleased to know that even though white supremacy still exist, whenever these bigots attempt to have a rally or some public display of their evil philosophy, they are always outnumbered by protesters at least ten to one. Our group of visitors are delighted when they discover that lynchings are a thing of the past, and the Civil Rights Act was passed decades ago.

It brings a smile to their face when they realize all of the laws that are in place to protect the rights of all citizens. They find out that the government and businesses can, has, and is often sued for racial discrimination. Human Resouces departments all across the country have rigid anti-discrimination rules in place, not only to deal with dicrimination when it happens, but to avoid it from happening in the first place. Everywhere diversity programs are in place to create an atmosphere of tolerance.

This noble group from our past then finds out about zero tolerance policies and they are truly impressed.

While surfing the internet they find out that one of the easiest ways for a white person to be shamed and ostracized is to be labeled as a racist. In this regard they read about people like Paula Dean and Rosanne Barr, George Allen and others who are now treated as castaways because of their perceived racism.

As these great black leaders continue on their modern sojourn, they continue to be enlightened about life in current day America. Each passing moment, they are more and more astonished. They simply cannot believe that black people can travel anywhere they choose, or live anywhere they wish.
They become overwhelmed with what they see and are in shock when they learn about business moguls like Oprah Winfrey, Bob Johnson, Michael Jordan and successful businessmen like Herman Cain.

Now completely flabbergasted by all that they have seen, they find out about sports leagues like the NBA, NFL and even the MLB that are dominated by black people and other minorities. Upon further inquiry they learn out about Serena Williams, Tiger Woods, Simone Biles and others. They just cannot get over all of the opportunities that black people have to improve their lives, and they stop to take in all in.

As they try to absorb it all, along comes Al Sharpton, Michael Eric Dyson, Kamala Harris, and other black victocrats with their white liberal enablers to enlighten these black champions.

These victocrats and their white liberal enablers’ sole purpose is to let these giants know that they should not get it twisted and be confused by all of these deceitful signs of progress because black people are still suffering at the hands of the white man in America, and that the whole system is geared to keep the black man subjugated.

Beto O’Rourke emphasizes to them that the system is unjust as it ever was for black people in America, and he brings along Colin Kaepernick to help him reinforce the point.

In the ensuing next few hours Kamala, Al and company proceed to give to our distinguished guests from the past, all the examples that show what a horrible nation America is in 2019 because there are evil people and bad things sometimes happen.

What do you suppose the response of Mr. Douglass, Mr. Washington, Mr. Dubois, Ms. Tubman and the whole group of heroes would be?

Anti-Americanism reigns on the left and the Democrat Party

Folks, how do you reconcile that a significant number of people in one of the major parties in this country gets offended by displays of patriotism? What do you say that? These people get offended by chants of USA, USA, they fret over saying the pledge of allegiance, and the United States flag is a symbol of oppression to them. They cheer for people who burn and desecrate the flag, they jeer at those who show reverence for that which the flag symbolizes. 

This is your modern Democrat party ladies and gentlemen. The alarming thing though is that a lot of the madness that we witness in the Democrat party every day comes from leaders in the Party. It is crazy to think that in America today, love of country is now controversial to so many people. 

You have people like Congresswoman Ilan Omar who as a refugee was rescued by this country, but everytime she opens her mouth to speak about America she speaks with contempt about it. You’ll be hard pressed to hear her say a good thing about the country that has offered her so much, and has been so good to her, ironically though this is what makes her attractive to many of the people in the Democrat Party. 

Apart from all of this, members of the Democrat Party constantly proclaim a message of gloom and doom, and speak as though nothing good ever happens in America.

So it is confirmed! To be a good Democrat, one has to hate the country. To hear Democrat politicians and their minions speak, one would think that we are living in the middle ages under the tyrannic rule of some feudal lord.

My goodness, do these people appreciate anything about this place? Just listen to the Democrat debate from a couple of weeks ago. All 20 of them told us over and over and over again how terrible life in America is. Nothing is going right if you ask these people. It was just a constant barrage of of negativity coming out the mouths of every single one of them.

It is unbelievable to watch people so privileged and blessed to live in a country like this do nothing but bash their country. Those Democrats on the debate stage tell us that nothing good is happening in the economy. Theye tell us that people are dying all across the land because of evil insurance companies. Doctors are only interested in money, Corporations are evil money grubbers whose only interest is oppressing workers. They will have you believe that no one is doing well in America. Tax cuts only benefit the rich. The rich are oppressing the poor, and the only reason that the poor are poor is because the rich are oppressing them. 

According to Democrat politicians, no one experiences hardship in their life simply because they live in an imperfect world where things sometimes just goes wrong. No sir that is never the case. 

If anyone is holding out for a message of hope, or inspiration from the Democrat party that person had better pull out a pair of high quality binoculars and start looking for flying pigs. The Democrats have made it clear that they do not wish to inspire any one with a positive message. 

Democrats tell us that oppresssion is everywhere and there is not a thing that anyone can do about it, unless people vote a Democrats into power. Do it at your own peril.

Colin, Nike, and the Flag…the saga continues

It’s not about the flag! It was never about the flag! It is not about disrespecting the flag! It’s not about the flag! 

This was the mantra of Colin Kaepernick apologists during his NFL protest saga. They made every excuse in the book for this ingrate. Like disciples living in a closed off commune making excuses for their cult leader; people repeated the mantra, “it’s not about the flag.” 

Even though Colin Kaepernick told us with his own mouth that it was about the flag and the country that it represents, his defenders continued to tell us, “it’s not about the flag.” 

Even though he voiced his disdain for the country that afforded him the opportunity to earn millions of dollars pelting a ball from one end of a field to the other, his disciples insisted; “it’s not about the flag.” 

Well a few days ago, Nike told us that they only care about the section of the country that hates America, as they pulled the Betsy Ross flag (Betsy Ross was an abolitionist by the way), independence day edition sneakers that they had released for sale to the public. 

Their decision was spurred by Colin Kaepernich who criticized Nike over the flag that was portrayed on the sneakers. He called the flag offensive because it was the flag that flew over the country during a time when the country had slavery.

None of the new ideas that America brought to the world in a time when slavery was the norm around the world matters to Kaepernick. None of the debates that America was having at the time about making this a better union matters. None of the built in systems that they had in place to help them address issues like slavery, and that eventually led to the abolition of slavery, and by extension the country that we have today matters. 

All that matters is that the country once had slaves.

Nike, who did not care one bit about hiring the controversial anti-American ingrate Kaepernick said that they did not want to unintentionally offend anyone with the flag and that is why they pulled the sneakers.

Honestly, what do you say to all of this?
