The Obama Haters: Rev. Jeremiah Wright Strikes Again.

 “I have a drone.” A very witty quip coming from the good reverend, but I’m curious, why don’t these haters ever seem to have anything negative to say about the GOP? It’s very curious, very curious indeed.
.
President Obama is charged with the responsibility of preventing Al Qaeda and other terrorist from getting their hands on Pakistan’s nuclear weapons – which, by the way, are essentially right around the corner from where they located Osama Bin Laden. So what would the good reverend have the president do, back-off and pray that the Lord protect us from a nuclear attack?
.
In addition, drones actually SAVE many lives during a war, because with drones we have the option of waiting until the target’s family is away from the targeted area, as oppose to simply lobbing missiles into a location blindly. So people like Wright, Tavis Smiley, and Cornel West don’t know what they’re talking about – and actually, they really don’t care. They don’t care how many people are being killed in Afghanistan, or anywhere else in the world, and that includes our inner cities right here in America. If they did, instead of running around the country selling books, doing $30,000 an hour speeches, and chasing photo-ops, they’d be in the trenches of the inner cities with their sleeves rolled up, and trying to educate our young people.

.

All these people want is an issue – ANY issue – that they can use to criticize President Obama. But it is incumbent upon the Black community to explore exactly WHY these people are so hostile toward our first Black president, because it’s a serious dysfunction in the Black community that plays a major role in our failure to move forward as a people.
.
As I’ve said many times before, I think it’s a simple matter of ‘bligotry’ – (Black-on-Black bigotry). Black people are a product of the very same racist society as White people, so many weaker-minded, and egomaniacal Black people are just as bigoted toward other Blacks as any racist Hillbilly. They tend to suffer from one of two modes of thinking. Conservative Bligot: “Things wouldn’t be so hard on me if it weren’t for the rest of these ignorant niggas.” Liberal Bligot: “Just because that nigga lied his way into the White House, he thinks he’s better than me.”
.
By and large, Black people are reluctant to accept simple bigotry as an explanation for the behavior of virulent Black Obama haters, because we are reluctant to except the fact that even the most stupid Black individual has more sense than to be bigoted toward his or her own people, but the evidence clearly demonstrates that the dysfunction is pervasive throughout our community. What do you think is responsible for the carnage and loss needless loss of life in our inner cities?  The reason for that is clear – our young people don’t value Black life, and they got that attitude from us. When was the last time you either saw, or heard, of someone perpetrating a drive-by while wearing a sheet?  You won’t, because there’s no longer any need for a Klan, because we’re much more efficient than they could ever be in carrying out their work for them.
.
We’re the only ones who don’t recognize this phenomenon. The corporations and business community uses bligotry against us all of the time. I was a union rep and an EEOC specialist for twelve years. That’s how I began to recognize what was going on. I’d be willing to bet that over 95% of Black workers have been either the victims of bligotry, or have seen it in action on their jobs.
.
Businesses and corporations across this country will routinely elevate a carefully selected group of Black people into middle management for no other reason than to abuse and discriminate against their other Black employees – the United States Postal Service is notorious for the tactic. The reason for the tactic is because it insulates the corporation from lawsuits. It is next to impossible to file a successful discrimination suit against a corporation for the behavior of one of their managers against a worker of the same race.
.
So again, bligotry is pervasive throughout the Black community, and it’s being used to great effect to undermine Black progress. And Black-on-Black hatred is exactly what’s at work in the vitriol being hurled at President Obama, and the Black community needs to put these bligots on notice, because they’re causing division, and that undermines everything that the president is trying to do for the Black community.   

.

That’s what makes it so disgusting. The behavior of these haters is not just an ignorant, petty, and self-serving mode of thinking, but the people who indulge in it are more than prepared to undermine the entire community to nurture it. That’s why all you hear such people talking about is how incompetent or disloyal Obama is.  And that’s in spite of the total irony that they tend to give the Republican Party a complete pass – a group that’s on a determined and single-minded mission to drag not only the Black community, but ALL poor and middle class Americans, PASSED the Jim Crow era, to the kind of existence that predates the Great Depression. How can you claim to love your people and do that? The fact is, you can’t. The claim attendant to the behavior is irreconcilable.

.

Another ridiculous criticism of President Obama that’s often repeated by these people is that he’s not doing enough to prevent the death and carnage in our inner cities. But the fact is, there is absolutely nothing that President Obama can do to keep one young person from killing another. The only thing that’s going to stop that is education – and not an institutional education that they can get from a book, but a cultural education in common sense, a love for self, and a love for community. President Obama can’t give them that. WE have to give them that. There are some things that even a President can’t do, and legislating common sense is at the top of that list. Only we can educate our children.

.

So now that it’s clear that many of these Obama critics are nothing more than walking criticisms looking for an issue (many of them didn’t latch on to drone issue until their poverty bus broke down), let’s return to foreign policy. People like the good Rev. Wright and others have absolutely no idea what kind of information President Obama is getting across his desk in his condition reports every morning. So the mere fact that they continue to blindly shoot off their mouths regarding the president’s actions, without having any idea of what he’s is responding to, is clear evidence that all three of these  are prone to shoot from the hip without knowing what they are talking about.
.

Thus, the bottom line is, while these Obama Haters would have us believe that Obama is in Afghanistan just killing women and children for the hell of it, or for the oil companies, that’s a myth. He’s trying to make sure that YOUR family is not blown up by angry religious fanatics who think that God will bless them if they blow up the United States.

.

We must constantly keep in mind that while war, and the killing attendant to war, is an ugly business, it is very much a reality in the world we live in. So again, if we have to lob missiles into an area filled with innocent people, since hiding behind human shields seems to be the terrorist’s preferred mode of defense, the drone is a far better alternative than simply blindly firing missiles into a location filled with women and children.

.

But that said – and documented – what’s going on with all of these Black haters? The Black community is going to have to start addressing this like it’s a Black psychological dysfunction similar to Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome. There’s clear evidence that this is Black-on-Black bigotry (“bligotry”). What evidence do I have of that? Cornel West knows exactly what he’s doing. He once said the following:

And finally, these Black haters never have anything positive about Obama, no matter what he does, and they never have anything at all to say about the people who are ACTUALLY trying to cut our throats – the GOP. Think about it.
