Talk is Cheap

If Chris Matthews wishes to apologize collectively for whites, then he should have long ago moved to an integrated neighborhood, put his children in integrated schools, and walked to work through a black neighborhood to get to know local residents. Anything else, and his apology remains what it is: cheap psychological recompense for his own elite apartheid.
-- Victor Davis Hanson

I would only add that if President Obama, Al notSharpton, Jesse Jackasson and the rest of the noisy spokemouths  wants to speak for all blacks, they should live the black experience that tragically too many blacks (and whites as well) live every day.  Put their kids in shitty schools gripped in the stranglehold of teachers syndicates, worry about if their children and grandchildren will make it home without being shot, encountering a gang, or having drugs pushed on them.

You can bet your ass the Obama children have no gangsta friends and that their parents demand they do their homework and speak proper English, as their elegant and well-spoken parents do.  I'd also bet the farm that neither young lady uses the N-word, either ending in 'er' or 'a.'

I do cut Jackson, Sharpton and Mr. and Mrs. Obama some slack on the issue, because they did come up from humble beginnings.  Jackson and Sharpton faced the dogs and the firehoses, and I respect that.

But PC surrender victims like Matthews and his ilk auto-fellating themselves with such warm feel-good orgasmo-blabber should make any thinking person sick to his or her stomach.  And that goes for young men and women like Toure', whose worse experience was perhaps being surveilled by a marshmallow sales person at a Mervyn's department store.

But, such is the state of America today.  Conversation?  How is that possible when the Attorney General, fresh from selling weapons to Mexican Drug Gangs and lying to Congress, calls us cowards, as gasbags like Matthews and Sharpton suck all available oxygen from the conversation?
