The media and Democrats want to say that 'Talk Radio' is causing the divisions we are experiencing today, but in reality, Talk Radio is just showing the other side of the story. A story that has been monopolized by Big Media to aid the cause of Liberals.

I don't get the Republican-bashing point, either. I don't feel bashed at all today.

Now I have whiplash.

MLK day isn't really about MLK.
Just like Washington's Birthday isn't about Washington.
We choose a person to symbolize something that happened that was monumental, Washington's Birthday is really about the US becoming a country, and MLK day is about the US continuing to perfect the expression of the core ideas that make the idea of the US so great.

You want to focus on something that isn't the essential element of this.

Hatred toward whites by blacks is the prime goal of all of this.

Why?

To insure a solid voter base for Democrats.

Democrats care too much to be racists so they get a pass even when they're white. After all Democrats are the guys with the goodies for the black community. Throwing cash around doesn't solve the problem. Education and constructive roll-models are the answer yet are strictly prohibited by the left. Self-reliance and individuality are discouraged. Hatred and envy are encouraged by MLK Day and Black History Month.

OK. Just to be exact and perhaps because I'm killing a bit of time before going out, you brought up the guilt issue.

I don't know why you are willing to accept that guilt that you claim the libs/Dems are trying to dump on you. If you want to get upset about it, that is certainly your choice. It's not mine, though, and I appear to be having a better day than you are. Just something to think about.

Strange how Bill Clinton cultivates the image of being the First Black President yet he calls Obama's candidacy a "Fairy Tale".

This is the kind of response any black candidate can expect to receive from Democrats if they try to assert their individuality.

You have no idea what I believe about MLK day. As for fantasy, anyone who can write such outrageous, vague, unsupportable generalities as your last few posts can't really accuse anyone else of that.

I thought that the true purpose of MLK day was to let Donkey sleep in until after noon on a monday.

I don't really care what you believe. I'm just showing you something you think is a novel idea which because it's not your idea it's not worth pondering. I have plenty of support for my beliefs which are not generalities. My support is evident to anyone with an open mind.

I remember back in 2000(I think) the NFL didn't let Arizona host the superbowl because they didn't recognize MLK day as an official holiday, and obviously, the state lost millions of dollars. Now, I don't think it is nearly as calculated as Mud believes it is, but he does have a point, this is a highly politicized holiday that CAN be used to instill guilt on people who disagree with it, and even further punish them like the in the case of Arizona.

What I'm talking about is well established and intergrated into the black community and represents everything they need to stop the constant self-destructive spiral they are currently in.

Whites can't talk of it because they aren't black and they wouldn't understand. Anyone who brings it up is accused of telling tales by those who are ether in on it or cannot accept it because they feel that it's impossible that they could have been made a fool of for so long.


Bill Cosby is one person who speaks of it and is shouted down every time he does. He or anyone like him are called sellouts, Oreos, Uncle Toms. Screw individuality. Blacks need to stick together to keep whites from screwing them over, because that's all they want to do after all, right? But not White Democrats. They only have good intentions for them.

No accountablity for their own actions, no acceptance of responsibility. Use the color of your skin as a crutch and milk it for all it's worth. Perfect Democrats.


Racism goes both ways. Hatred, bigotry, envy, looking for an easy way out. Prime targets for Democrats.

I said it once. How does that mean I'm going to do it every time?
As the King of Cool, I'm pretty much free to dictate what exactly is cool and what isn't. 'Apathy' certainly is cool in 2008, according to my annual "Things That Are Cool" list. It received a bit of an upgrade from 2007, where it was merely labeled "Kind of Cool".
Sure, a spoiled and careless electorate that has managed to not have a devastating economic depression or a World War. Sounds like we're doing something right, actually.
So, what did you do during the Great Depression to make ends meet?
You do know that a large portion of 'the government' that you accuse of sponsoring this are Republicans, right? You do know the day was made a holiday due to 6 million American citizens petitioning the government to do so, right? You do know that Republican President Ronald Reagan signed the bill to make it a holiday, right? You do know that Republican President George H.W. Bush signed the bill to make February "Black History Month", right? Sure seems to be a lot of self-hating Republicans, I guess...
So, basically, we should just forget about the past (except for the Great Depression and WWII, obviously)?

If you don't care what I belive then why did you bring it up?

You claim to have "plenty of support" but I see none here. All I see is sweeping generalities and outrageous claims.
