I'm Curious Myself?
Hussein Hit By 'Black Lash' From the Pulpit
I know I already posted this one, but ... I have listened to this for the third time now... and well... You might want to check it out. I can almost guarantee you haven't heard something like this come from the pulpit lately...
This preacher's sermon is obviously 'Black Lash' from the American Community with African Heritage.
Bill or Hillary Had Nothing to Do with This
Holy Smoke! Hey aint trashing Obama!
Gov. Douglas L. Wilder vs. Sen. Barak Hussein Obama & Your's Truly
It's time to get down to brass tacks about race and politics. I have voted for two Democrats in my life. Governor Wilder, and Senator Chuck Robb.
When I voted for Chuck Robb, because I had finished my four years in the US Marines and had just entered college. He was running tv ads highlighting his service as a US Marine, and it just so happened I met a Gunnery and Master Sgt. in Okinawa Japan that served with him. They said he was an exemplary officer while he served in Vietnam, and led his Marines from the front of the column. Good enough for me, done deal.
I voted for Doug Wilder the next year for Governor. I watched that campaign a lot closer, because it was a big deal. You know that 'black guy' running for Governor of Virginia. His Republican opponent was Marshall Coleman, and I never could find anything about him I really liked.
Doug Wilder was a pretty conservative candidate for all I remember of his campaign, and he just wasn't your run of the mill Liberal Democrat that usually ran for office. He was black, but he didn't come off at all, like "You Owe Me, Because of my Race". Furthermore, he promised not to raise taxes, an issue I am keenly cognizant of when looking at candidates.
So, I voted for Doug, and so did my other young white male friends I was hanging around with. We were like, this guy is a Korean War veteran, who won a Bronze Star, and we figured this guy worked to get where he was, why not? We were all tired of all that racial crap anyhow. Heck we liked Lynyrd Skynrd, Def Lepard and Bootsie Collins in High School. You know, if you were black, it wasn't a big deal, just so you were cool, and not throwing a bunch of "You Owe Me' in our faces just because of your race.
I still have that attitude and from what I have seen of Hussein on TV he isn't really coming off with the "You Owe Me" attitude. He does have one serious short coming. He is an unabashed Liberal. He masks it with a bunch of flowery platitudes about how if we just "Hope", everything will just turn into peaches and cream if he is our President.
I'm a lot older now obviously, but I can tell you one thing if Doug Wilder had come across with the same platitudes as Hussein, he wouldn't have gotten my vote. I frankly can't give a rip what color you are if you line up with me ideologically, and I don't mean just tell me your a Conservative, you need to have a track record. You know, I was brought up knowing that I had to get an education, and work for a living to get ahead in life. If you are promising me a Government Program to fulfill all of my needs, I know for a fact you are full of it.
Being Free, is all about being Free. That means it's all about Limited government, Lower Taxation, Opportunity, and Belief in the Creator that gives me Hope in a better future, not some BS Government program promised to me by some politician. Heck Fidel Castro promised Cubans a heck of a lot of things, and what do they have? The most backwards island on the face of the planet. Everything is free, but what he heck is it worth? If you are dense, I am saying Socialist and Communist Ideals are dead ends, and we don't need anymore experiments to prove it over, and over again.
There is a big difference between Gov. Doug Wilder and Sen. Hussein Obama. One told me where he came from, and what he was going to do as my Governor, if I gave him the chance. I knew Doug Wilder grew up in a world that made him earn everything he got, and even though he didn't have all the Freedom's in his own State or Country he deserved; he served it honorably in the Military. He doesn't have a problem placing his hand over his heart to say the Pledge of Allegiance. He strikes me as someone that realizes Freedom emanates from an authority that everyone, including governmental institutions ultimately answer too.
Hussein on the other hand comes from a whole different mind set. He strikes me as the type that says, "I can make government set you Free, Trust me, I am the benevolent dictator". If we can only place more and more power in the government, then the government will grant you more and more Freedom.
In summary, what am I trying to say? I'll vote fer the yellow Chinese decendent guy as long as he believes in the correct ideals that our Founding Fathers laid out for us. Our Freedoms are granted by a Creator, and not created by some high minded, well spoken folks with a bunch of flowery messages, about how government is going to meet all of our needs.
You know what's funny though? Watching the Party members , from the party of 'Government Knows Best' get tripped up when it comes to discussing race. That's what brought this post on, so late at night, after a couple of beers.
Cheers folks, now let's get the best Conservatives we can in office!
I'm A White Republican,
and I would gladly have this man as my Presidential nominee.
What do these Democratic voter demographics tell you?:
Obama was winning roughly 90 percent of the black vote but only about one-quarter of the white vote, extending a pattern that carried him to victory in earlier primaries in South Carolina, Alabama, Georgia and Louisiana.
