A black bourgeoisie perspective on U.S. politics
It’s Season 3, Episode 8 and brought to you by GiantLife.com. Yay for TWiB’s sponsor of Elon James White’s brilliance…
And he’s got a new iphone app. Blackness…there’s an app for that!
Elon discusses the latest dust up in race in America due to Dr. Laura’s commentary. It is a 2 part episode; Elon deals with the n-word situation first. The 2nd part (coming next week) will deal with the far more inflammatory aspect of her comments about blacks and President Obama. Cuz we need to go there. Cuz Dr. Laura has shown us exactly what’s in the freaked out minds of Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, the Tea Party, etc. She used no filter, she didn’t imply Barack Obama isn’t a citizen and she didn’t call him a communist. She just straight up spit it out, which is sort of refreshing in a weird way. Why couch it or cover the hatred with a febreeze-fresh rain of birther nonsense or trumped-up claims of socialism? For my part, good riddance to Dr. Laura. Now if only we can get a few other racist blowhards to pipe down already and pour their first amendment-protected hate into a pillow at home instead of our nation’s airwaves…hey, a girl can dream, can’t she?
