Audio of Ahmadinejad, Farrakhan, New Black Panther Leader Plotting Overthrow of U.S.

December 28, 2010 - TREASON - The New York Post had this back in September, but today we get shocking audio (hear it below) of a meeting between New Black Panther leader Malik Zulu Shabazz, Louis Farrakhan and Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. What did they discuss? "Ways," writes Gateway Pundit, "to build an alliance, secure raw materials and overthrow America." That's right: Overthrow the United States with a bloody Muslim-race war. Might they start by killing "cracker babies?" Will we be hearing condemnations of Shabazz and Farrakhan anytime soon from President Barack Hussein Obama have to say about this? Or Jesse Jackson? Or Al Sharpton? Don't count on it. Does a meeting with a hostile foreign leader, in which you discuss ways to overthrow your own nation constitute treason? You bet it does. Here's the New York Post's story from Sept. 27: President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's six nights in New York featured a secret sit-down with militant minister Louis Farrakhan, heckling in a hotel bar, and a fear of being rubbed out that bordered on paranoia, the New York Post reported Sunday. The president shared a hush-hush meal with Farrakhan and members of the New Black Panther Party Tuesday at the Warwick Hotel on West 54th Street. Full story here...

Woman Yells "Nigger" Repeatedly On Street Corner, Does Not Apologize

Cracker radio host Dr. Laura Schlessinger came under fire this week for actually saying "nigger" during her on-air show on Tuesday, August 10. The far-left organizaion Media Matters posted the audio and a transcript of an exchange between Schlessinger and a caller who claimed to be a Black woman. Schlessinger issued an apology the next day for saying "nigger," but when you listen to the audio and read the transcript you have to wonder if that apology was really necessary. Take this excerpt, for example: CALLER: How about the N-word? So, the N-word's been thrown around -- SCHLESSINGER: Black guys use it all the time. Turn on HBO, listen to a black comic, and all you hear is nigger, nigger, nigger. CALLER: That isn't -- SCHLESSINGER: I don't get it. If anybody without enough melanin says it, it's a horrible thing; but when black people say it, it's affectionate. It's very confusing. I was walking down the street yesterday, and like any other day, I encountered Black people calling each other "nigger" or referring to somebody who is not present as "nigger." Here's an example of the exchange that I heard yesterday, which I will translate into Ivoronics for you: "Hey nigger!" the woman shouted to an acquaintance standing across the street. She was, I'd guess, in her mid-20's. She continued, "Nigger, shit! Get your ass over here, nigger!" Her friend, a Black man about the same age, crossed the street. "I was on my way to the motherf*cking clinic, bitch," he said affectionately. "Have you seen Jimmy?" she asked. "I have not seen that nigger in a fortnight," the man responded. "That motherf*cker is not right in his head. Nigger's crazy." Okay, we'll stop there. You get the idea. Neither of the man nor the woman involved in that conversation, nor any of the several people standing within earshot of them, have demanded an apology for saying "nigger" repeatedly. On her show on Tuesday, Schlessinger pointed out that there is hypocrisy when it comes to using the word "nigger." She's right, and she's certainly not the first person to point this out. Another excerpt after these videos (language advisory)...
Here's another excerpt from the show's transcript: CALLER: It's OK to say that word? SCHLESSINGER: It depends how it's said. CALLER: Is it OK to say that word? Is it ever OK to say that word? SCHLESSINGER: It's -- it depends how it's said. Black guys talking to each other seem to think it's OK. CALLER: But you're not black. They're not black. My husband is white. SCHLESSINGER: Oh, I see. So, a word is restricted to race. Got it. Can't do much about that. CALLER: I can't believe someone like you is on the radio spewing out the "nigger" word, and I hope everybody heard it. SCHLESSINGER: I didn't spew out the "nigger" word. CALLER: You said, "Nigger, nigger, nigger." SCHLESSINGER: Right, I said that's what you hear. CALLER: Everybody heard it. SCHLESSINGER: Yes, they did. CALLER: I hope everybody heard it. SCHLESSINGER: They did, and I'll say it again -- CALLER: So what makes it OK for you to say the word? SCHLESSINGER: -- nigger, nigger, nigger is what you hear on [HBO] -- Tell me that Schlessinger is wrong. You can't, really, and I suspect that the caller may have been deliberately trying to set Schlessinger up for a gotcha moment. If that's the case, the set up worked. However, the audio and the transcript of the event only show the caller to be hypersensitive, duplicitous and hypocritical about language. In her apology, Schlessinger said "I articulated the N-word all the way out – more than one time... And that was wrong. I’ll say it again – that was wrong.” No, Dr. Schlessinger's cowardly apology and bowing to political correctness is what's wrong. By the way, I apologize for calling Dr. Schlessinger a "cracker."

Quinn, Hynes Vie for 'Church Clown' Title

By Michael Coyne This past Sunday, January 31, the two Democratic primary candidates for Illinois Governor—Pat Quinn and Dan Hynes—spent the day courting a crucial part of any Democrat’s electoral strategy: the Black Vote. African-Americans break heavily for Democrats according to all polling data available in recent history. Therefore, it is no surprise that both Quinn and Hynes were relying on this critical group to break for them. What is amusing is the fact that they both spent their Sundays in prominent black churches on Chicago’s South Side. Trying to be ‘relatable’ Taking this move at face value and ignoring the religious aspect for a moment, it makes sense, in an ironic humor sort of way. Politicians have to go where the voters are, and, in this case, they were at church. The message of both campaigners was simply, “see, I’m just like you.” This, in itself, is riotous. Two men, who would be remarkably white even if they stood next to the population of Sweden, were jockeying for the black vote by going to a massive black church. No, they did not stand out at all. Dopey PC Stigma When did it become such a crime to be white? Yes, the president is black. I honestly could not care less what color a politician’s skin is, so much as proving that we believe in the same political ideals. It sometimes seems like conservatives are the only ones who actually want to stop using race as a yardstick for successes and failures. Truthfully, I would think substantially less of a politician who came to my church to grasp at votes, regardless of what color he or she was. HWJV? – How Would Jesus Vote? Yes, it is common for Democratic candidates to attend churches to stump for votes. Nevertheless, it is absurd. It is incomprehensible to me that the same party that detests any sort of religious expression in public is completely fine with desecrating a house of God by using it to shill for votes. I could even justify standing outside a church, temple, or mosque to pass out literature as people left. However, attending a service merely to be seen is unsettling. This is little more than a parable of how far today’s political situation has gone. For more conservative commentary, visit Michael Coyne’s RepublicanBlue.

Why Did Red Eye Cover Omit Bill Clinton?

What's missing from the January 12 edition of Red Eye (Chicago)? An image of Bill Clinton, that's what. The cover shows US Senator Harry Reid and former Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich saying "Sorry" to former Illinois State Senator Barack Obama for racially insensitive remarks. Blago said he was "blacker" than Obama. Reid praised him for being light skinned and not using "negro" dialect. Bill Clinton, the nation's first Black president, said that Obama would have been serving him coffee a few years ago. While Clinton's remark is also in the news, the media is giving his remark much less coverage than they are giving to the Reid and Blago remarks. A new book, "Game Change: Obama and the Clintons, McCain and Palin, and the Race of a Lifetime," gives details an incident in which Clinton was "belittling Obama in a manner that deeply offended [Sen. Ted] Kennedy. Recounting the conversation later to a friend, Teddy fumed that Clinton had said, A few years ago, this guy would have been getting us coffee." (Emphasis added.) So, where is Bill Clinton on the Red Eye cover today, and when will he apologize?

"If I Were a Klan Member, I Would Retire..."

A few readers left comments about my recent post, "Derrion Albert, Killed by KKK Surrogates," in which I said that his brutal killers might as well have been Ku Klux Klan members. "Worried about the KKK?" I wrote, "They're certainly a group that needs to be monitored, but these days they've got it easy. Unwitting surrogates do the killing for them, accomplishing more evil and mayhem in a single drunken Uptown weekend than the Klan ever could. The far bigger worry for Black Americans these days, however, is the black kid walking next to you on the playground. He's more likely to kill you than are the 100 or so Klansmen in your state."

"Trpy" in Santa Ana, CA understood my points. He wrote:

"As an African American, I must say that was the best article I have read. If I were a Klan member, I would retire from active duty and just watch from the side lines."

"TH," on the other hand, misunderstood my clearly stated points, and wrote this:

In MY opinion I really don't approve on how this article was written (see [url]http://rogersparkbench.blogspot.com/2009/09/derrion-albert-killed-by-kkk-surrogates.html[/url]. Yes its true black senseless kids killed Derrion Albert and yes blacks are constantly killing blacks which is sad and sickening. But let's talk about the whites killing the whites and the hispanics killing the hispanics. REALITY it's just a people killing people. Now and days there is no race that is better than the next. There is crack/heroin addicts, prostitutes, rapist, Drug Dealers, Killers, and abusers in every race that lives in the USA so who are you to talk down on blacks. It seems the media tries to brain wash blacks into believing that they are never goning to amount to nothing.

My response to TH:

Believe it or not, TH, you actually agree with much of what I wrote, but you missed part of the point. People are people, yes. I mourn the loss of that young black man, Derrion Albert. What you say about bad people being in every group (racial, ethnic, etc.) is true, my point is that people like Jesse Jackson Sr and others are wrong to constantly demonize whites by way of exaggerating the actual current impact of the Klan. ("Klan" for Jackson is code for "whitey.") Many, many Black Americans acknowledge the severe problem of blacks killing blacks, moreso than within any other group. That doesn't mean that black people are inferior; it means that there is something wrong with much of their culture. 70-90 percent of black children born to single mothers, for example. The unwillingness to "snitch" by many [Black Americans] on killers and drug pushers, for example. I was not talking down on blacks, TH. I was talking down on the Jesse Jacksons who don't address the real problems in preference for passing the buck, and not admitting that more blacks are killed by blacks than are killed by the KKK currently.

Michael Kerr, Director of Business Development at Red County, understood the article. I cross posted it to Red County, but Michael was oddly frightened by what I wrote:

"I wanted to give you a heads up regarding your last article. It was unpublished. I recognize the point of your article but we think that some people might use the KKK reference and try and misconstrue the point you are making. You might want to tackle that one from a little different angle. Lots of bozos on the left are always looking to try and paint conservative bloggers as racist and we thought the KKK reference might be something they would latch on to."

My response to Michael Kerr:

I find the stand taken by Red County to be cowardly, very disturbing and rather hypocritical. You say you are afraid of a reference to the KKK? Seriously? That's absurd, particularly so given the numerous references to "KKK" at redcounty.com (Google search for "KKK" at redcounty.com at http://bit.ly/VCLcW.) The stand taken in you remail seems ludicrous in light of past posts, especially one with the title "Abortion/Eugenics: Progressive Berkeley minister denounces ‘genocide’" by Andrew Walden on 07/15/09. I can no longer associate myself with Red County, since it seems that it now wants to be politically correct. If so, perhaps Red County could just be a republishing aggregator for Huffington Post. Please remove me from the list of Red County contributors.

As a post-script to Michael Kerr, let me repeat the kind comment from "Trpy":
"As an African American, I must say that was the best article I have read."

Red County, a "conservative" web site, claims to "strive" to "provide intelligent, well-informed insights into local political issues affecting the lives of readers in each market we serve."  Red County doesn't specify cowardice and an inconsistent adherence to political correctness as part of what it strives for, but those would fit nicely into their mission statement.

Urban League's Declaration of Dependence

Star Parker
Star Parker (photo) is a brilliant columnist
on, and the founder and President of, the Coalition for Urban Renewal & Education (CURE), a 501(c)(3) social policy think tank. She writes what she thinks, and she always thinks carefully about what she writes. 

This week, Parker thought a lot about the National Urban League and their shameful willingness to declare, in effect, that African-Americans are not able to make it on their own, and that Big Government is the only hope for them. Those are my words, not Parker's. She says it a whole lot better than I can: 

The National Urban League has just issued its annual State of Black America report. It provides a troubling statistical snapshot of where blacks stand today in our country. Like Marc Morial, president of the National Urban League, I'm concerned. But after concern, we part company. We have very different ideas of what it is we should be concerned about. Morial, I am sure, sees his organization as part of the solution. From what I see, it is a well-funded symptom of the problem. 

Note: If you want a copy of the State of Black America report, the National Urban League will gladly sell you a copy for $19.95. However, you can find a free Executive Summary and free abstracts at no charge on their website.

Parker jumps right into to her declaration that the National Urban League, a suck-up organization in the pocket of the Democrat National Committee, is not part of any solution. The National Urban League, she says, is a big part of the problem: Shouldn't it embarrass black Americans that one the nation's largest and most prestigious civil rights organizations offers a long list of proposals to improve black life in our country, and every single proposal is a government program? Government funded jobs as the answer to unemployment, more government money in public schools, government health care, government business loans, government money for retirement accounts, government programs for counseling homebuyers, government worker training programs, government money for building construction, and on and on. 

Indeed, it should embarrass not just black Americans but all Americans that, in the year 2009, so much of the failed policies of Lyndon Johnson's not-so-"Great Society" are still clung to by race-baiting opportunists. The National Urban League is such an opportunistic organization, eager to take the tax dollars of hard working men and women regardless of race and redistribute it to those who have not earned it. A main motivation of such immoral action: Power. He who controls the gold controls those to whom he doles it. Why do you think 90 percent of black voters, in a typical election, will vote for the Democrat? Because organizations like the Urban League are in a devil's pact with the Democrats and the redistributionists. 

Parker continues: There's not a single proposal that I could find in a several hundred-page report about improving black life that does not start with government. The civil rights movement once was about freedom and liberation. Now it's about government dependency. We should be ashamed. 

Ashamed, yes. Surprised, no, not with reflection and critical thought. One of the most disturbing nightmares for the Democrat Party leadership and groups such as the National Urban League is one in which black people and other minority groups begin to realize that freedom and liberty is killed by dependence. Whether that dependence is that of a child to parent or welfare recipient to government bureaucrat, freedom dies and the recipient is co-opted. Creativity is discouraged, enterprise muted, progress retarded. 

But, you may whimper, blacks and minorities need more help than, you know, the rest of us. That's liberal code for "white people." The Democrat Party and the Urban League don't mind that at all. The notion that one cannot make it with Uncle Sam's hand up one's rear end, as with a ventriloquist and his dummy, is just fine and dandy. The ventriloquist, after all, controls the dummy. What good would it do the ventriloquist if the dummy got off his lap, walked away, and booked his own act? 

Racism still exists, but it can no longer be blamed as a blanket reason for blacks to fail. Too many black Americans are succeeding, thank God, for that to be a valid reason any longer. It is now an shirker's excuse. As Parker writes, "Regarding discrimination, you have to wonder what it will take to get off this convenient excuse. Some 40 million white Americans voted for Barack Obama for president. That is two million more white Americans than voted for John Kerry in 2004." 

It is, perhaps, an ironic statement for Parker to make, considering that Kerry and Obama have been and continue to be part of the cabal that encourages groups like the National Urban League - and the myth that black Americans can't make it without them. 

Call for Black Liberation, Socialist Revolution

The next time somebody laughs at you for saying that socialists, communists and marxists are active in the U.S., show them this photo (click to enlarge). The photo was taken in Rogers Park, Chicago on March 6, 2009. The leaflet was for a February 12 event, but shows that the call for a socialist revolution is out there.

HOT: BLACKS CALL OUT BARACK

This is explosive. A large (and growing) group of Black-Americans is PISSED OFF at Barack Obama. Indeed, against most of the Democrat Party. The last paragraph is a missile across the bow of the Party's ship: If Obama refuses to condemn the Democrats for their racist past and current race-baiting against black Republicans, then what right does Obama have to preemptively accuse Republicans of using racism against him? WOW. Read the rest of this HOT letter, released today by Frances Rice, chairman of the National Black Republican Association.

Pfleger Spanked by George the Lame

Not good enough, Cardinal George! Chicago's Cardinal George took a wimpy approach to Priest Michael Pfleger's racist outrage last Sunday. The Cardinal - once again - merely slapped the offensive priest's wrist. Cardinal George: "To avoid months of turmoil in the church, Fr. Pfleger has promised me that he will not enter into campaigning, will not publicly mention any candidate by name and will abide by the discipline common to all catholic priests." (Source: Sun-Times) Okay, but will Cardinal George extract a promise from Pfleger to never again call for a crowd to "snuff" a gun store owner? How many more outrages will the cardinal tolerate before he finally transfers Pfleger to a small island post in central Africa? Pfleger would probably be happier there, anyway, with fewer white devils around. Meanwhile, Cardinal George should look into acquiring a testicle. RELATED: Pfleger Gagged!

Barack Obama whined that we took his spiritual mentor's words out of context. That's Rev. Wright, the bigoted, anti-American, hate spewing preacherman on Chicago's south side. Wright whined that he was treated unfairly. Out of context? Let's correct that, shall we?

OBAMA'S RACE SPEECH

Mitt Romney, former contender for the Republican nomination, gave an eloquent speech about his religion. He explained his religion. He told us why it's not scary. He was, sadly, giving the speech in response to knuckle dragging bigots on both the Left and the Right. This morning Barack Obama, a contender for the Democrat nomination, gave a speech to "explain" race relations and, essentially, excuse 20 years of racist ranting by his hateful pastor, Rev. Wright. He was, if you'll pardon the expression, preaching to the choir. But a few in the choir may not have bought his lame excuses and attempts at sweeping Rev. Wright under the rug. Marathon Pundit gives us an excellent opinion/analysis, titled Obama's Wright speech. Meanwhile, Skeptical Brotha writes that the Obama speech turned him off, but for very different reasons. Writes SB: First, let me say that Barack Obama’s “denunciation” of some of Dr. Wright’s justifiable indignation about America’s hypocrisy regarding race, war, and Hillary Clinton, left a bad taste in my mouth, a very bad taste indeed. The Brotha goes on: A sistah named Cassandra from Michigan emailed me saying, “For the first time I don’t care whether or not he wins if he must shed his spirituality and dilute his soul to neutralize the stench and sting of truth that so many White Americans refuse to acknowledge…The hypocrisy and denial of how racism is destroying the integrity of working class and poor American blacks, whites, Latinos, Arabs and Asians is the seam that is dividing and will eventually shred the Democratic Party.” MORE at Smearing Barack: The enduring racist double standard

Ding Dong Hillary

From one of my blogging heroes, Skeptical Brotha: I cannot conceive of any scenario in which a Negro Presidential contender could lose eight straight contests after Super Tuesday and still be considered the front-runner looking toward Texas and Ohio. Nothing comes to mind because IT WOULD NEVER HAPPEN. The Media buys her B.S. because of the person selling it. The only thing holding Hillary Clinton up right now is white privilege because it sho’ ain’t the voters. MO' RIGHT HERE...

Got Negros?

Skeptical Brotha is ascerbic and cynical. My kinda guy. Oh, and before you get yer doo rag in a bunch, he describes himself this way: "I am a black, 30 something political junkie residing somewhere in the Carolina’s." So there.

So Over the Rainbow (Coalition)

This was sadly predictable. Indeed, it was sadly so inevitable. This is what decades of neglecting the borders has wrought.
