"The editor's addition of 'is he too black' is superfluous in that it adds nothing to the story. It is offensive that the Editor chose to single out the man's race when nowhere else is that done. It has nothing to do with the story at all."
It has everything in the world to do with the story. If you knew anything about history you would know that. From the assassination of Lincoln until the early part of the 20th century, the majority of the black population voted in the majority for Republican candidates. It was not until the progressive movement started in the early part of the last century placing Democrats in power who offered, particularly blacks, all types of entitlements in order to get them into their camp. Ever since then, with more and more blacks becoming dependent on government programs, they have overwhelmingly voted Democratic to keep their free meal ticket coming. It doesn't make them bad people. It has put them in a new type of enslavement they haven't wanted to escape. Today, they have decided they may want to in fact follow the American dream. They are open to listening to folks like Hermann Cain offering them a pass forward. Obama is scared to death of losing a large portion of his base since part of his election was based on his being the first black president. The Editor's comment has great significance. Cain is all black and came from where they are. Obama is half black and never struggled to work his way up in the world. I know this is politically incorrect to speak the truth about this subject but I believe it's past time for all Americans to fess up to reality in 2011.
As for your addition to the first blog you said "It also should be mentioned that an accusor has come public with specific allegations, not anomymously. A white lady."
Sadly, I know you don't even realize that your statement of "a white lady" is totally hypocritical based on your first blog quoted. Does it matter what color the accusor is? What if she were yellow, green, purple, brown, white, or black? Last time I checked, all women are the same ... many with right brained thinking, emotions, and the same body parts as all other women! Have you somehow discovered that white women are somehow different? By the way, 'white' in your blog IS superfluous!
You are precisely part of the problem we now have in this country. You are obviously ignorant of history, ideologically driven, and not willing to listen to common sense in making rational decisions for the betterment of all Americans, regardless of color. What a shame.
I see you've just written another blog that contains the words "the white lady said ...". Guess I didn't get to you soon enough to deter you from spouting off your irrational ignorance.
