i was watching CNN today and there were talking about The former U.S Education Secretary Bill Benet who made Racials Comments about Blacks and stuff, so they bring on two black men who seemed very educated and successfull. one of them who is a senior editor of a Huge African American Magazine, i forget its name is very upset about this whole issue and is saying mr. bennet owes an apology to all blacks, the other black man, who i swear was white on the inside is actually defending the man who just insulted him and all blacks, i couldn't believe it, here's a black man, who has the abillity to speak out and critisize a racist idiot and what does he do? he defends him, saying he was "Hypothetically" speaking. so, i started thinking, obviously this isn't the first time we've seen this, why are blacks self hating? they, in a way remind me of somalis you know, when we're with each other we're brothers and sisters, but when we're with others it's a different story. for those of you who missed it this is the original script from the radio show that i found on some website.
Here is the transcript
CALLER: I noticed the national media, you know, they talk a lot about the loss of revenue, or the inability of the government to fund Social Security, and I was curious, and I've read articles in recent months here, that the abortions that have happened since Roe v. Wade, the lost revenue from the people who have been aborted in the last 30-something years, could fund Social Security as we know it today. And the media just doesn't -- never touches this at all.
BENNETT: Assuming they're all productive citizens?
CALLER: Assuming that they are. Even if only a portion of them were, it would be an enormous amount of revenue.
BENNETT: Maybe, maybe, but we don't know what the costs would be, too. I think as -- abortion disproportionately occur among single women? No.
CALLER: I don't know the exact statistics, but quite a bit are, yeah.
BENNETT: All right, well, I mean, I just don't know. I would not argue for the pro-life position based on this, because you don't know. I mean, it cuts both -- you know, one of the arguments in this book Freakonomics that they make is that the declining crime rate, you know, they deal with this hypothesis, that one of the reasons crime is down is that abortion is up. Well --
CALLER: Well, I don't think that statistic is accurate.
BENNETT: Well, I don't think it is either, I don't think it is either, because first of all, there is just too much that you don't know. But I do know that it's true that if you wanted to reduce crime, you could -- if that were your sole purpose, you could abort every black baby in this country, and your crime rate would go down. That would be an impossible, ridiculous, and morally reprehensible thing to do, but your crime rate would go down. So these far-out, these far-reaching, extensive extrapolations are, I think, tricky.
Blacks are Hypocrites.

You should ask yourself the same question...
Why do you hate yourself?
Why do you have American flag instead of Somali flag were you are from?
Why do you kiss up to white rednecks ?
Are you a House Negro like Collin Powell or that witch Rice?
Why
