Mike Shanahan Doesn't Believe In RGIII

Sun, 29 Apr 2012 16:04:23 -0400

A can of worms.

That’s what the Shanahans deliberately, no strategically created by drafting the five-foot something, green n’ white version of Captain America - Kirk Cousins.

Why do this?

The obvious gridiron reasons provide basic camouflage; John Beck, the BYU QB the Shanny’s adopted n’ embraced, who they touted as a “diamond in the rough . . . sucked. Rex Grossman, who supposedly had mastered the little geniuses aerial assault concepts . . . was still Rex Grossman.

So The Redskins had no backup QB worth-a-bottle-of-spit.

Secondly the big elf likes “competition” at the QB position to push n’ bring out the best in gladiators. Yeah right, Griff looks n’ sounds unmotivated.

And Cousins, of course, is so-mentally gifted, with such leadership skills, (3 time MS captain) that he’ll grasp the offense faster and with greater depth n’ breadth then RGIII, so if the gifted one struggles grasping the complexities of the masterminds words, at least they got a Great White Hope who'll go in there with the cerebral ability to perform surgery like Dr. Doo-Right.

It’s insulting.

What do you want to wager Robert Griffin, the father, told his son “ they doubt you,” “they doubt your abilities, your mental and emotional abilities son” . . . and might I add so, as the vast majority of White folks question the intelligence of Black Americans.

Am I lying? No I’m merely cuttin’ to the chase.

Now Why do I know this is how these two little men feel.

George Bush is Mike Shanahan's buddy, their daughters were college roommates at Texas, the Shanny's were at the Bush twin’s wedding. Shanahan pimped n’ exploited his position as Bronco head coach to utilize Bronco stars to campaign for George W. the final time he stole the White House.

All this makes the Shanny’s a friend of Carl Rove . .. .

That relationship in-itself alone makes the Shanny’s sexist, elitist and yes you can bet your last-dollar, racist, because Rove and Bush definitely are, at least in the minds of the vast-majority of Americans-Of-Color, if not card carrying Republican TEA Party members - whose opinion on “ism” don’t really count.

The only one they think exist is Reverse racism . . . .

These types of people, instead of looking at Robert Griffin the III and seeing an Alpha-Male, an officer n’ gentleman, the last Boy Scout, Sidney Poitier - circa 1967 . . . , no they don’t see that guy you want your daughter to marry, they see an arrogant cocky Black boy, who like Obama - can sound White when he wants to.

They see what Rush Limbaugh sees when he looks at Robert Griffin III . . . an Uppity Nigger.

Rush, Savage, Hannity - these twerps robotically dance around that term everyday like the dancers on American Bandstand.

We all know the “really cool” people watched Don Cornelius’ Soul Train if you wanted to see real talent get-down n’ later get-off.

Robert Griffin the III truly is akin to Sidney Poitier, he has all the right stuff; character, integrity, guts, brains, honor, dignity, compassion and passion; he’s like my son, Braxton - just about everything you could ask of a son to be. But when he walks in the room, some folks aren’t impressed. Instead they’re intimidated, indifferent and perhaps even offended by the Uppity Nigger.

Just as half-this-nation, the Redneck half, doesn't really believe Obama is a smart, decent man, I don’t believe Mike and Kyle Shananhan really believe Robert Griffin is a smart and decent man who’ll make a great NFL Signal Caller.

Might the RGIII pick have been “forced upon them” by outsiders, i.e. fans and experts?

Never forget the Confederate legacy of the Washington franchise - which was the last team to racially integrate, and like much of the US, only did it under Federal pressure.

Least I leave-out . . . RG III has a White woman danglin’ on his arm.

Put all that together and you’ve got what millions, upon millions of White folks see as an . . . uppity nigger. Most of White America is much more, let us say . . . comfortable with the Janoris Jenkin’s version of a Black man; fightin/smokin’/making babies like General Motors - it fits their “gutter-low expectations,”

What the Shannys were doing by drafting/sacrificing Kirk Cousins was merely putting an Uppity Nigger back in his place. They did the identical thing to Donavan MCNabb, let’s not lose-sight of the verbiage these two pulled-out of the Ol’ Dixie trunk in the plantation cellar - lazy n’ dumb. The nation, at least half the nation can read right- between-the-lines.

Robert, son, watch your back out there in Shanny land. Every smiling face is not your friend.

JANORIS JENKINS SHOULD BE BANNED & BARRED FROM THE NFL.

Thu, 12 Apr 2012 12:04:41 -0400

In a nation of mildly enlighten people like ourselves, where image is, tragically damn-near everything, Symbolic value carries a great deal of weight; Mitt Romney represents the disconnected elitism of America’s aristocrats, Obama, represents the culmination of an generation which were told they were Young, gifted n’ Black, Black is beautiful and that Black folks ought to seek . . . Black Power

The NFL produces our societies “Alpha Males,” like North Alabama’s Defensive back Janious Jenkins and Heisman Trophy winning Signal Caller out of Baylor, Robert Griffin III - one is destined to attain great heights on the gridiron, and the other appears destined to end up either dead, in jail or greeting folks at Wal-Mart.

That’s quite a fall for a man who has the skills n’ tools to one gay be dipped in “Canton Bronze.”

Tragically, and I hate to say this, the best thing which could happen to about what, 10 million little Black boys? Jenkins being rejected by the NFL for his reckless, careless, destructive behavior . . . .

When push comes to shove . . . his being banned, bred, branded, it’s the greater good.

Sure, the obvious argument; it would cost this . . . . man, and I use that word with reservation, millions upon millions of dollars and deny him and his - 4 babies/3 babies mommas, and of course his posse, a lifestyle he’s due. Nevertheless I’d counter; rejecting him on “character issues,” the example he would set might be equivalent to the classic 1970’s “Scared Straight.” He could influence the decisions of thousands, tens-of-thousands young Black boys, and girls, not to engage in reckless, careless, unplanned baby-making.

I’m not preaching abstinence, I’m talking putting a helmet on that soldier, taking a pill once a month . . . the simple stuff millions of us seem to be able to manage doing.

Jenkins is a baby makin’ machine, a biological father but never a daddy; Black America needs daddies, not sperm donors seeking only their lockerroom manhood.

Did I mention he also has a reckless/careless luv affair with Mary Jane, which, no is not great enough to jeopardized his NFL career, but it will cost him upfront moo-lah, and it speaks Encyclopedia Britannic Volumes about his judgement, his analytical skills, or lack there of, but unlike the NFL scouting reports which almost overlook his mass production of babies, and leave their character concerns to weed smokin’ and brawling - I’m a tad more concerned with the fate of the Black American Empire, than I am the NFL . . . .

As much as I want to see RGIII soar, I want to see this rooster not allowed to fly, keep his tail-feathers on the ground as an example to all. No Character - No glitter nor gleam, no fame n’ fortune for Jenkins.

Now despite Jason Whitlock, that 403 pound White man’s Negro now over on FOX Sports babbling about RGIII’s supersonic speed, in the long-run, hurting his aerial growth - (ain’t that a big-ass bitch?) He’s doing the dirty-work of writers at FOX Sports, Bleacherreport and the other semi-exclusive bastions of White guy opinions.

This kid has all the tools to silence the Rednecks across the land who believe, like their grandfathers did a few decades ago that Black men aren’t able to lead an air attack.

‘The Obese One” is but a very large mouthpiece for those who despise Black pilots, Presidents and Quarterbacks.

I believe his over-the-kitchen-top-table weight problem reflects a distinct case of self-respect . . . or lack there-of. His disrespect for himself, physically, health wise, reflects his low self- exstem, lack-of-control, questionable decision-making ability - the combo of all this allows him to be pimped, used by folks who still believe - Black men are created without, void-of the skills to grasp complex NFL offenses, lead grown men, read deft NFL defenses nor manage play-clocks.

I’m only charging $99.99 for an hour on my couch . . . .

So regardless of what this rotund puppet says, Griffin has the tools to change the landscape of Black America, make it, once again, like in the Black America of the 1950’s - cool to be smart, intelligent, intellectually curious, armed with a vocabulary which likens him to a professor as opposed to a wangster/gangster/tankster/prankster/rapper/pimpster . . . .

Thank the Gods I’ve yet to hear RG talk about entertaining people and puttin on a show, or havin’ fun - he’s no TO or Ocho-Cinco, translation, RGIII is no Bozo, no Step-en fetch-it, not desiring to shake-his-ass for all the White folks watching the “minstrel show.”

What do you bet TO can’t define “Minstrel”?

RGIII, believe it or not is, for a large slice of White America the nightmare they’ve been fearing since 1954 . . . a enlightened Black man, an alpha-male, raised by two strong Black folks, not aristocrats but Army Sargents. People from all walks of life can imagine what you get when you cross GI Jane with Gunny Highway and dipped in chocolate Buffalo Soldiers; you get a determined , driven, classy son who does not know his place and will allow no man to prescribe it for him.

Damn . . . go head with your bad-ass self . . . “They call me M-i-s-t-e-r Griffin, the III!”

Mr. Griffin . . . the Third well understands how he’s already being depicted by today’s press; sportswriters are reluctantly admitting he’s as good as the Oliver Luck’s boy, the already anointed one, Lucky Andy Boy. The press is begrudgingly confessing Griff’ is a pass first QB, posting a jaw-dropping 72% completion rate. While predictably they’re already trying to downplay his obvious intelligence by likening him to . . . President Obama, who many White guys seem to blindly hate - saying both are flash-in-the-pan slick talkers, clever n’ crafty.

Those are slights and put-downs my friend. The treatment of this kid by the sportspress will be an Texas text book example of denial and racism.

Let’s walk n’ talk, take our minds beyond the trees;

I’d submit 300 years of bondage, the dehumanization process that it was, which attempted to strip away Black folk’s civility and the 5th class citizenship status we’d have to endure, yes, of course, it’s all, in its “totality” taken an obvious toll on my people. I’d argue that’s why 70% of the young Black men who get in front of sports cameras and microphones sound like 1927 share-croppers from Dothan Alabama, yet they grew up in Seattle or Portland, their mommas n’ Daddies grew up their too, yet they’ve mastered the language no better than Jethro Bodean, Chicken George or Ricky Bobby.

Hell I understand Nigerians and Ethiopians straight off the boat better then I do some Black folks from . . . Cincinnati or Topeka - there’s simply no excuse for the lack of vital communication skills needed to navigate the racist, hostile waters of America.

Horrifically, such a gifted man-cub as RGIII is somewhat of an rarity on the sports scene simply because of the critical condition of Black America, our current stage of internal self-destruction we’re waging upon ourselves; between babies having babies having babies, and the nationwide devaluation of a formal education - it being dismissed as the “white mans ways,” and the nightly Blood on Brother dead body count . . . all has had an devastating impact on Black America over the last quarter century.

Janoris Jenkins is a posterboy for Black men who thinks like a boy, who seemingly have not merely accepted but adopted and embraced the low expectations a racist, elitist society like the us has laid out for him - I’m willing to sacrifice his dreams to save . . . millions.

OPEN SEASON ON NIGGERS . . . ?

Fri, 6 Apr 2012 11:04:58 -0400

Here’s the cold, indifferent yet highly predictable company-line coming out of “the Right” via its official, authentic voice - Redneck Radio concerning the cold-blooded murder of Treyvon Martin at the hands of a angry, paranoid, hostile White man:

“What’s the big deal here, a few-dozen Black boys die on the streets of LA, Dallas, Chicago, Detroit, Boston Houston and Philly every Friday n’ Saturday nights across America . . .at the hands of other young Black men and there’s no outcry, no demand for justice.”

There’s a number-of rebuttals to such an simple-minded indigent observation . . . but they start with US History 101 and the White man’s documented propensity to randomly kill Black folks on a whim . . . . The desire to declare “OPEN SEASON ON NIGGERS” is an age-old All-American concept.

But let look at this from all-sides; An internal family conflict is one thing - the O’leary brothers can call each other all kinds of names - beat the hell out-of-each-other . . . but let the Spaneilli family or the Pagona brother’s call little Billy O’leary a cheat and a liar . . . that’s another different kind-of thing all-together, and that’s merely human nature.

Can you say the Hatfields and the McCoys . . . internal conflict

Nor do I need to draw with the written word a picture depicting the Black mothers who beg for peace in the ghetto? The community activist, politicians and preachers operating “this program” or funding “that project” in feeble attempts to slow the internal self-destruction Blacks wage upon ourselves.

No one, not even angry White folks can tell me there’s no effort by Black folks to halt the murders of Black boys by Black men, nonetheless we face - millions of Black boys who were born into a contrived, make-believe pretend world where they’ve been painted n’ tainted by the White majority as inherently inferior, as well as violent, war-like, and extremely over-sexed . . . and a sorry but significant portion lower themselves to such gutter-low expectations.

“If you can control a man’s thinking, you don’t have to worry about his actions. If you can determine what a man thinks you do not have worry about what he will do. If you can make a man believe that he is inferior, you don’t have to compel him to seek an inferior status, he will do so without being told and if you can make a man believe that he is justly an outcast, you don’t have to order him to the back door, he will go to the back door on his own and if there is no back door, the very nature of the man will demand that you build one.”

On top of the brainwashing - there’s no debating we live in a designed-to trickle-down-society, where the folks at the bottom are there by-design, not coincidence nor happenstance, and purposely divided along lines-of-color, class, gender and religion left to fight-over the crumbs and make our collective/individual conquering a coldly calculated given.

And my God, Black folks have been stuck at the bottom now for four hundred years; scores of us have been mentally/emotionally/financially and physically pushed and shoved, beaten down into believing, accepting the value placed on our Black lives by White folks - which is zero, absolutely nothing, the same identical value the Sanford Florida police force placed on young Mr. Martin . . . is accurate and true; we don’t think much of ourselves by-design.

It’s no secret there’s an an elite power-base in America which endeavors to make sure the condition of Black America is critical; out-price quality health care, undermine the funding of public education. the concerted effort to mark n’ tag Black males from birth as “thugs” - and it starts with the tip-top establishment - from the Heritage Foundation to the Koch brothers n’ the Coors’ family - sexist and racist elitist who underwrite politicians who write more laws than create US jobs. Laws which authorize the building of more prisons then preschools.

Insert Ronnie “666” Ray-Gun’s Revolution and specifically the Iran-Contra-Compton-Crackgate - which upped-the-ante, put AK 47’s and Uzis on the streets ushered-in this latest era of gangster warfare being waged by young, mildly educated and very desperate Black men who see the “underworld “as the only world they are equipped to prosper in . . . and you’ve got a wild. wild west frontier mentality enveloping Black America.

Need I pull out Chuck-the-Chalkboard and graphically illustrate in Black n’ White how the deliberate, coordinated economic evacuation of the US industrial and manufacturing base, the strategic exodus of urban Breadwinner gigs - eroded any slim-chance held by Black workers at achieving the American Dream? The transference of jobs to India, created drug dealers and hustlers in the Gary and Peoria Indianas’ all across the land.

Please, it don’t take no genius to recognize the Blue-blood aristocrats and their butt kissing wanna-be sidekicks’ - those in the investor class, they’ve, in a calculating Vulcan-like manner sold out the American worker, and specifically the Black worker tactically pulled-the-floor- from-beneath the American worker.

The last hired . . . , very first fired.

Please note; today it is the haves, the have mores, the have every damn thing there is folks who sit-back and sip-wine . . . openly marveling at the barbaric measures the little people will take to survive.

Ain’t that a . . .

Every night hundreds of White men beat their wives, and I mean beat the hell out of them, and despite the anger management programs out there and the shelters for abused women to flee to - White men continue to beat women. White men with degrees from Ivy League schools, military academies, noted private religious institutions, from some of the best homes in the best-of neighborhoods . . . .

And some of those same credentialed White men steal retirement funds, knowing working class people of all colors. the real dreams of college or retirement White-collar crimes the equivalent of manslaughter, murder, robbery, rape.

But before I allow a card-carrying John Birch Society member to take some high n’ mighty moral high-road, present themselves as innocent spectators in American violence, I must ask the obvious; Why do White men on Wall Street pimp n’ exploit, loot and pillage poor White women on “Main Street?” Why do minor-league investors allow the undercutting of 90% of the American work force so that they can buy another German made car or purchase another vacation home in Cabo? The molestation which takes place in the Catholic Church . . .

Dysfunctionalism regions free in US society, and no racial group, no “tribe” has a monopoly, cornered-the-market on Neanderthal behavior detrimental to our overall good.

Why do the vast, overwhelming majority of White folks sit silently as half the country cries out for justice? Is it because this silent-majority believes Black people as a whole, as little-more-than criminals and drug addicts? Expectations are that low?

If they do sit as mutes, and millions do, it only verifies today’s Republican TEA Party member sees Americans-of-Color just as his father did, and his father before that, and his father before him. Yes. we’re just Niggers, Injunes, Spics and Chinks. We don’t love our children, we don’t have morals, values, character, goals - we just want to make little brown people and have White folks foot-the-bill.

I don’t know? I don’t have a easy answer why Black boys kill each other?q Why did all Euro-American immigrant groups spend a few decades marred in organized crime before being permitted to drift-into mainstream America - assimilate and be absorbed. Oh, what do you say? Black folks aren't welcome in Mainstream USA?

That’s what White Flight translates into.

See this is where I get lost; have Black folks forgotten recent US History? No! The last two generations, those born into a post-apartheid America seemingly, apparently never learned it.

What Does Tebow Think Of The Treyvon Martin Killing?

Fri, 6 Apr 2012 10:04:10 -0400

Spring Break allows the mind to wonder . . . of course I know I’m the only guy in America pondering this thought . . . but what does Tim Tebow think about the Treyvon Martin execution . . . ?

I mean Gee, he, the Chosen-One, who “laid hands” on fellow religious fanatic, the injured Bronco Brian Dawkins . . . if Tebow’s so-desiring to “help” mankind and spread the word of Jesus, a words like love n’ tolerance, right? Then good lord, we need him to come down from the Big Apple Skyscraper his residing up in the clouds and heal the sick, raise the dead, better yet . . . cleanse a good number of Angry White folks of their racist ways

Let’s not get too-biblical here.

If you want to “impact” the sales of Tebow caps, jerseys and draws . . . let him offer his thoughts on the martin case - in full. Allow him to elaborate on how he, a child-of-God sees such matters. His answer will either eternally endear him to Rednecks from Alaska to Nebraska, or, brand him a Nigger Lover in 21 states.

And if we’re talking about letting role-model set examples . . . let’s ask Peyton Manning and Tom Brady how they too feel about America’s most talked-about, most combustible cocktail conversation in America today. Their answers would help millions of parents decide if they’re actually “role models you want your son to grow up to be like, your little girl to marry.”

It might also affect if players, obviously Black gladiators would want to go into battle with, or for an individual who sympathises with, and can defend the George Zimmermans of the world.

I know how the NBA’s Dwayne Wade n’ King James feel, and I’ve got a pretty good idea how the handful of Black NFL quarterbacks Mike Vick, Cam Newton and Robert Griffin III come down on this flammable issue. But I want to know how these cats see it. I think it would prove, if nothing else both interesting and enlightening.

This case, like the Mike Vick case, the OJ case, the Bernard Geist case . . . will become the contemporary American racial litmus test.

Peyton Manning may not have been “conservative” enough for the fanatical Rocky Mountain Christian fruitcake congregation, at least that’s what the polls, billboards and radio stations amplified, but I guarantee you he and Tebow stand on the same side in the Martin debate. They, at the end of the day will support George Zimmerman.

“White-Niggers” neither are, but “Wiggers” they would be branded-in sports-bars, boweling alleys and backyards across the “Heartland” by real White men. The combustible issue is that polarizing.

It would be suicidal, John Brown suicidal to side with Blacks in this racial barn-burner. Neither “celebrity” would recover from the “White backlash” for stepping across the racial lines which are as visible to the unjaded eye as the white lines which outline any gridiron.

I’m sorry, despite the personal, individual backlash these sportsmen would recieve . . . I want America to know “who” and exactly “what” Tim Tebow is; what religious perspective he represents, who he appeals-to.

I want Sarah Palin and Texas Governor Tricky Ricky Perry’s admiration and championing of Tebow to help people construct who he is and what he’s praying for everytime he hits his kneels.

“Birds of a feather . . . flock together.

If Black folks could hear Tebow articulate what his staunchest supporters, as in the overtly intolerant folks like the Focus on the Family believe, their ultra-conservative company lines . . . we’d have to face another stark reality; right beneath the top, under-the-rug . . . woven into the American fabric is 1954 racism still yearning to run rampant through US society . . . including our national pastimes.

The idea that White Quarterbacks, the make-believe “face” of a league predominated and dominated by Black men - can skirt-by, tiptoe down the sidelines-of-life and not have to weigh-in on the meaty issues of our day (which Black Quarterbacks feel obligated to weigh-in on) simply-so they can maintain their Great White Hope status above the fray is insulting.

To continue to fatten not just their pockets, but that of NFL owners who share their coliseum penthouses with . . .God yes, evil itself Rush Limbaugh - is offensive.

Let these born-leaders of men, role-models weigh in. So many willingly weighed-in and financially supported “Big George W. n’ Little Dick Cheney” in both elections, supported McCain against Obama, so why not weigh-in on an issue like this which holds so-much weight in the court-of-public opinion.

Have the fans tell it, Tebows the only Boy Scout on a field full of “Vice-Lords”, if that’s so then does that not also entail such an Dudley Do-Right alpha-male taking- a-stand on an issue as hotly debated as this one; a Black life being as valuable as a White life?

Yeah, if the New York Post were to permit me to raise my hand at the next Tebow press extravaganza, I’d ask Jesus Christ Jr. what he thinks about the Treyvon Martin case . . . but he’s not crazy . . . just an extreme religious zealot - which means he’s clever-enough to not offend a racially split/divided customer base.Outside of tossing out some politically correct googly goog . .

Tebow understands White folks by season tickets, jerseys, caps, shoes, underware, socks, belts, autographed pig skinned bibles . . . .

I’d submit though, if Tebow were to stick to the fanatical, fundamental evangelistic Christian holy script . . . his personal paraphernalia sales would skyrocket, not plummet. Then we’d all see he’s preaching to the choir.

And I guess a few million dumb-ass Black folks will donate that Tebow Jersey to Goodwill.

The national debate would be on. Rightfully so.

The sweeping of real issues under the rug in-order to ensure profit streams would halt. Sportsfans would really pick n’ choose the items they purchased . . . and that’s something the sports cartel won’t let happen in the US.

Can it not be argued Tebow is most adored by and has been adopted/embraced by folks who reflect that slice of the All-American Pie which longs to go back to 1957, when apartheid ruled-the-land? These are the good ol’ boys who long to tell us all;

“OK, everyone listen-up . . . Back in your assigned-place; you Colored boys come around to the back-door to pick-up your meals. You Mexicans - you can’t come inside either, can’t you see the “No Dogs/NO Mexicans” sign over-the-door?!”

“Hey Jew Boy, same goes for you, I don’t give a damn how much money you have!” And the same goes for Injunes . . . those treaties we signed with you, we want all that Black Gold laden, Texas Tea filled land back!

“And you little simple-minded, barefoot, pregnant, slightly educated and completely dependent upon me gals, I don’t need no Hilary Clinton backtalk - all I need is a whore in the bedroom and a maid in the kitchen!”

Wow, does that not just sound just like fanatical Muslims. . . . ? Christians, Muslims, Southern Baptist, Puritans, Buddhist, Jehovah Witnesses - a fanatic is a fanatic is a fanatic. Please, please, please God, Allah, Jehovah, whomever . . . protect me from your followers!

Nonetheless there’s little debate these religious nuts have made Tebow the most divisive presence in the league . . .   Tim Tebow’s army of angry Christian Soldiers, who see him as Thor, with a football helmet and a bible will not accept him not being the savior.

So yes, I believe if sportsfans could hear how Tebow discuss the Treyvon Martin case, which would have to entail how he see’s the country, the politics of the land . . . it would change the NFL forever, perhaps even the nation itself.

There might be players, Black or White who wouldn’t want to play with him, let alone for him.

And It would be an eye-opener for Black America, and lord knows we need our eyes opened.

Should The Augusta Masters have ever admitted Blacks?

Thu, 5 Apr 2012 23:04:42 -0400

Rush Limbaugh and the privileged good ol’ boys on the “Right” have their Depends all-in-a-big-ass bunch . . . yes, again. The uppity …you-know-who in the White House stated the unfathomable thought women ought be admitted to the majestic greens of Augusta . . . Masters that is - Greenest greens, Georgia peaches.

How dare this boy, tarnish the Oval Office . . . and White House sheets with his dirty half-Black behind, thuggishly speaking-out-of-turn without . . . some rich White dudes consent! He just don’t seem to know his place,

Rush, Hannity, Savage, Beck, FOX, they’re all commenting on how this is the end of Augusta having control over its fate . . . the pinnacle of all golf will now, based on Obama’s out-of-line remark be forced to admit women. The last time someone raised an eyebrow about the ingrained sexism in Augusta, the President at that time knew to sit quietly.

Well, different time, place and man.

Just as Obama didn’t play the typical US frontman card; presenting himself as a pompous, arrogant Letterman Club punk in dealing with Venezuela's Chavez or other fat-cats from around the globe - which is the predictable approach of most White Alpha-males. He’s not going to sit here on his hands and say nothing of blatant institutional sexism in-order to pacify and placate the American aristocrats who comprise the Augusta Masters Golf Club.

Please See; Newt, Romney, Rush, Big George W. or Little Dick Cheney for a vivid example of that difference.

Golly, what a predicament these men who consider themselves this country’s official Blue Blood/Red Neck royalty find themselves in - being forced/coerced by this Black President and the low-court of public opinion he’s tilted against them - now having to be fair, honest and equitable - it’s just not fair is it?

And after all, this is not about legalities, of course it’s legal for a private club to discriminate when it comes to their membership. The issue here; is it wise to maintain a good ol’ boy only clubhouse - at the same time you profess to not see color, gender is irrelevant and class status has no meaning.

Augusta embodies and symbolizes the exclusion this nation is noted for. It’s a vivid yet stark snapshot showing how discrimination trickles-down from the top where the low standards are set.

Now, their predictable outrage at the President interfering in issues which are beyond the so-called scope of the Leader of the Free World’s realm . . . brings me to the question; should Augusta have admitted Blacks?

Ponder this baby; If there remains a debate amongst wealthy White men, the 98.9% of the luminous country club’s membership - as to whether-or-not women should be allowed a place on their sacred greens, and a debate does remain - then I’d logically submit there’re still those amongst the elitist in the plantation clubhouse who, if they had their aristocratic druthers . . . there’d be no brothers up-in the big house.

That’s not a stretch is it?

It only seems to make pre-school playground sense; you deem women 2nd class - which can only mean Blacks and other Americans-of-color have a inferior status also which has been bestowed upon-them by some higher authority, some superior entity . . . White guys.

Apparently they’re the sole determiners/deciders of the value of human life. At least they use to be.

It’s comical how a group of people who hand-crafted an empire based on color/gender/class yet today hypocritically profess to be color-blind. Nobody, and I do mean nobody, no other ethnic group in the nation believes them, based on not just a well documented racist history, but of the present-day racial climate of America. It’s crystal clear White folks are freakin’ out over Obama, the sky is fallin, and it’s something deeper then a blue funk, but rather well over half the official “Right” appears to be about ready to go berzerk.

Let’s go with - on the verge of losing their minds, goin’ crazy up-in-here.

So for a group of folks who, when in absolute power created an empire where color and class were essential in all meaningful walks of life, and only backed-off in the face of revolts in the streets and their bedrooms . . . it’s not a Gumby stretch for most to accept if women are not wanted, if the all guy membership of global movers n’ shakers aren’t quite ready for women to join their treehouse, then gee, how many would prefer Blacks not be admitted?

How many current grand pooh-bahs of the Augusta want to resend the half-ass membership invitation presented to Blacks.?

I’d imagine only a weasel, of the Negro variety. like a Judge Clarence Thomas could retain his honorary Redneck designation in fraternities like Augusta if this nation could go back to the “good ol’ days.” They’ll make him stand out front in a little red n’ black jockey outfit and a lantern at sunset.

I know it sounds like a move backward, but if I’m to understand White folks, real White folks want to return to the simpler days of apartheid in America - keep the Blacks, Latinos, Muslims, Asians all on one side of town, going to school with and shopping with each other, working in only certain jobs regarded as appropriate for our limited skill-set and untrustworthy character. . . .

It only seems proper that country clubs would like to regain the control of their memberships as they did prior to the 1960’s and 70’s.

Let’s face it, the solid half of the Republican TEA Party wants a candidate who is committed to taking back their country, and ending the liberalism which has infected the country.
