Will the Dems' health care Christmas Present to America be an improvement or detriment to our health care system?


Knowing that Maury and his lovely wife Connie Chung probably do have blacks to their house on weekends, or certainly will in the very near future on the heels of AG Holder’s scolding, I could not help thinking of how much more racist I was than Maury.

I feel bad because I treat the people I meet with all the respect I can muster until they do something to deserve otherwise. Maury makes a living exploiting the pathetic stories of the under-educated and socially vacuous ghetto-dwellers that are apparently standing in line to get their free ride on the idiot express.

I scold myself for encouraging one of my former minority employees to start his own business, and that I continue to do his business writing and that I still mentor him two-three times a week. He will do well over $300,000 in sales this year, and make two to three times what he did working for me. Maury thinks it’s OK to rake in millions of dollars in advertising while doling out cheap hotel rooms and plane tickets to social bottom feeders who apparently have no compunction about embarrassing themselves and their families by flaunting their sexual promiscuity and lack of responsibility to millions of other TV addicted morons and part-time dental patients.

I am not particularly proud of putting my career on the line while reporting the harassment of a minority female at work, and making sure that the situation got the attention it deserved. Maury and his salacious stirring of the pot with his IQ inferior guests, apparently thinks that baiting morons into becoming more moronic and that by providing a ready vehicle for foul-mouthed, near-whores and wanna-be-pimps to get their fifteen minutes of fame is somehow doing some kind of social servicing to the under-privileged.

I don’t think there is any particularly courageous about having blacks at your Saturday bar-b-que, but I do think that there has been a paradigm shift in the acceptance of diversity into our neighborhoods, businesses, and social circles. I saw it in the service, and I see it in the children that populate my middle class neighborhood as they walk to school together each morning.

AG Holder marginalized all of the white abolitionists that were a potent force a hundred and forty years ago. He marginalized the Republicans that helped LBJ pass the civil rights legislation in the sixties over the objections of southern Democrats. And he marginalized those whites that marched with, and died, while fighting for the civil rights of blacks, also in the sixties.

I am not naïve enough to believe that all of America is fully racially integrated, but it is obvious that ethnic culture is flourishing in all manner of businesses – restaurants, ethnic grocery stores, and the supervisory and managerial staff in my own company.

But I don’t think anyone is interested in having those mired in the calamitous social cesspools bred by lack of education and a dependence on the liberal social agenda, into their houses this Saturday for burgers and ‘dogs. Maury cured me of that.

So excuse me for not having the Crips and Bloods over to my house this weekend for pate and caviar. Maury may have a plane ticket and hotel room though.

Wow Goldilocks
Honestly, I never thought of that! I so do appreciate food for thought. Kudos for that!

to Roy
they already said they wanted to make sure the stimulus money for construction didn't go to a bunch of white guys in hard hats. These guys are quite open about their racism towards whites and anyone who believes in hard work to get ahead.

Great article, glad someone tells the truth.
