Nov 18, 2003 IT’S TIME for African Americans, Gay’s and Women to grow up and stop the whining. 80% of afore mentioned are well-adjusted contented citizens with no ax to grind. They live their lives as typical Americans. Then there are the other 20% who make life miserable for the rest of us. TODAY I WILL TARGET The Rev. Al Sharpton, The self-appointed leader of the Black Community. And self-proclaimed candidate for President. I think he is a Bigoted, Raciest, And Self-aggrandizing Hypocrite. Of course that’s only my opinion. The Rev as he likes to be called never misses an opportunity to turn blacks against whites. Like most black leaders nothing sticks to him in this politically correct society the liberals are creating. The Rev carries more baggage than Am-track. The national media let it slide out of sight, never to be mentioned. Through the not so late Adam Clayton Powell, Jesse Jackson, The Clintons, Ben Bradley of the national media and a few others The Rev was able to attain some credibility in the Liberal Camp. The Rev knows he has no chance at winning the Democratic nomination for President, He knows he will generate enough power to be on the platform calling all who don’t agree with him Crackers and Oreo’s. I know the Rev will always barely be on the edge never in the main stream of the Liberal Club. Even when he doesn’t. The Liberals won’t allow him anything beyond getting a few perks he knows he justly deserves. After all he’s getting out the Black vote. In case the Rev isn’t aware, in the past 100 years 60% ( 11 of 18) of the Presidents have been elected without the Black vote. There are still some blacks for sale. Especially those with questionable intellectual value. The Rev makes a great deal of the days of slavery in America. There are some facts the Rev doesn’t tell you. Less than a quarter of White Southerners owned slaves. Blacks in Africa where as complacent as whites in the slave trade. Those who where being enslaved didn’t get to the ship on a city bus. They where chained and delivered by other blacks. The slave ships where owned by British, Dutch, French and Protégées. Few where American. Slavery was and is the scourge of the earth. Slavery is still practiced in many African, some Mid-eastern and some Oriental Countries. Any country that has in the past or is now practicing slavery should be held accountable. In my opinion America has more than paid its debt for slavery, now it’s time for every one too get over it and move on. Applying for the job of President should be a serious matter, it shouldn’t be something someone does as a game. The Rev has no qualifications, he isn’t even a serous candidate in his own mind. He is simply playing a game of political got-ch-ya with the Democrats. It’s such a waste of effort on the part of so many to have this fool using the system for personal profit I have always wanted to ask one of those self-appointed Black Community Leaders, Are African Americans better off than African Africans ? As deplorable as slavery is wasn’t it an early form of affirmative action. It educated the un-educated, it took an impoverished group of people and gave them an opportunity beyond their wildest expectation Those freed slaves who returned to Liberia to start a new Nation based on principles learned from the American Constitution, with American money and American assistance today are living in abject poverty in a country ripped by civil strife. So Rev call me a racist, call me a bigot, then please answer my question. The British occupied all or part of Ireland since the 12th century. The Moor’s (Black Africans) occupied Spain (the other half of my heritage) for 650 years. So please Rev don’t tell me you can’t get over the ills of slavery. It’s been nearly 140 years. The same year Spain became a free nation they sent the Moor’s packing, and managed to discover a new and magnificent land later to be called America. Not bad for a nation only a few months old. AS FOR GAYS what they do in their bedroom is their business, I think it should stay in their bedroom or wherever they practices their pleasures. It doesn’t belong in the classroom, the living room or church. I don’t care who puts what where with who I don’t need to know or watch. In my opinion gays should have the right of passage in their personal lifestyle. Please don’t try to force it on me and mine. WOMAN, I neither understand or dare to comment on. I do know they started out doing all the hard work and dominating their society. They eventually evolved into being placed on a pedestal, revered and taken care of. Now they want to go back to doing all the hard work and dominating their society. I DON’T GET IT ! In closing I will categorically deny I am a racist or a homophonic, I certainly have nothing against woman. I am willing to put my record up against anyone. ------------ About the Author: Ken Hughes is a retired businessman.
