  • Racism?

    Racism?

    I have long believed that part of our problem with resolving the race issue in the world is our inablility to accurately name what we are.

    Aside from the occasional Johnny or Edgar Winters, there are no white people.

    Any child with a box of crayons can tell you that white people are, in fact beige.

    The sickly ones are gray.

    Following this crayon logic, one can easliy see that there are really no black people.

    They are brown, or perhaps raw umber. Or maybe burnt sienna.

    Frankly everytime I hear someone comment on America’s first black president.

    I can’t help thinking, “No he’s not. He’s more like caramel.”

    Which is why I think we should all get in the habit of calling each other what we really are.

    How can you racially slur a man by calling him beigey or umber.

    The answer is you can’t.

    Because that’s exactly what he is.

    The melavin doesn’t lie.

    Buy a box of Crayolas and see for yourself.

    We are all a member of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.

  • Nation of Sheep!

    American Politics

    It is starting to Bore me.

    Always a structure to report to or a memo to file.

    Everything in it’s Proper Box.

    All this talk about rugged individualism.

    In my experience, this is a nation of SHEEP.

    I think I am a little different.

    I see opportunity and take the risk.

    Much more simpler and allot more fun.

    US Government

    Let our government give us citizens the information.

    But let it leave us free to choose what changes we want to take with our own lives.

    Milton Friedman - 1980

    What most US Citizens are concerned with is the Spending - The Debt - The Power of Government and the unwillingness of our Government Leaders to be responsive to the peoples wishes.

    Equality

    Equality means that we should not be treated by a court differently!

    Equality of condition is different than Equality before the Law!
