Seriously, just think about it rationally for a moment: How are we to take you seriously when you have no complaints during the past 5 Presidents, and now you are furious that the Black guy won the election and wants everyone to have health care? That he is not inciting other countries? What I’m trying to point to is the extreme outrage of the current President by people who were not outraged by the previous President, who actually did EVERY SINGLE THING THESE PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT TODAY! If you want the rest of us to listen to you, you need to come up with something better than “The Black guy with the Muslim name wants to give everyone health care” as a rallying cry. . . . → Read More: Why You Appear To Be Racist.

“You hate America, don’t you?” she said. “That would be as silly as loving it,” I said. “It’s impossible for me to get emotional about it, because real estate doesn’t interest me. It’s no doubt a great flaw in my personality, but I can’t think in terms of boundaries. Those imaginary lines are as unreal to me as elves and pixies. I can’t believe that they mark the end or the beginning of anything of real concern to a human soul. Virtues and vices, pleasures and pains cross boundaries at will.” . . . → Read More: That would be as silly as loving it so I got me a bird, better known as a kilo Now everybody know I went from po’ to a nigga that got dough So now you put the feds against me cause I couldn’t follow the plan of the presidency I’m never givin’ love again Cuz blacks are too fuckin broke to be republican Now I remember I used to be cool till I stopped fillin’ out my W-2 Now senators are gettin’ hired and your plan against the ghetto backfired So now you got a pep talk but sorry, this is our only room to walk Cause we don’t want a drug push But a bird in the hand is worth more than the bush tell the politicians, the hustlers: live and let live (yeah) tell the politicians, the hustlers: live and let live (yeah) . . . → Read More: Blacks Aren’t Too Fucking Broke To Be Republicans, Hell Yeah! “In Marxist terminology, reactionary is a pejorative adjective denoting people whose ideas might appear to be pro-working class, but, in essence, contain elements of feudalism, capitalism, nationalism, fascism or other socio-political characteristics of the ruling class. Reactionary also denotes supporters of authoritarian, anti-communist and fascist régimes such as Vichy France,…” . . . → Read More: Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel. What is the message? Well, the message is, that even though President Obama’s approval is actually higher than President Bush’s was (outside of the Sept. 11, 2001 era) the people who approve of President Obama are not “real Americans” and that the “Will of the People” means “the Will of White Christians.” What else are we to infer? Overall, Matthews’ did what he could in an hour. I did what I could in an hour, too. (more or less) The Rise of the New Right requires much more than just a blog entry, or a one hour special. I do agree that MSNBC does “Lean Left” but I do not think that means there is not a seriousness to the issue of the New Right. This use of Nationalist and Ethnic vocabulary disguised as “Patriotism” is dangerous… on top of the fact that there are so many commentators, pundits, and politicians fanning the flames.
