Revisiting my blog entry on this great day for health care in America:

AMERICAN PSYCHOSIS

There is a true horror psychosis gripping America right now. This last decade in the history of the United States of America has produced a haze of ignorance, stupidity, and a bizarre need for Americans to self-destruct that has never before been seen on American soil. The vacuuming away of the common sense of the typical American is the most frightening thing I have ever witnessed in my 52 years of living on this planet!

Examples: I would have never believed two years ago that the United States Postal Service would be teetering on the cliff of destruction! And, that the federal government, with its anti-American morality Republican guard, was the evil culprit about to push it over the edge! Unbelievable!

Example: I have seen several prominent Republican politicians, male and female, stand or sit before crowds of people -- in town hall meetings and on various television outlets and on radio outlets -- and tell the crowd or television or radio audience that they absolute do not believe in evolution! These are suppose to be the intelligent, though-out leaders who are suppose to lead America with true facts that ground us all in reality and common sense! This is a dumbing down of America that frightening me to no end. Comedian D.L. Hughley was a guest on Real Time with Bill Maher in early 2011. He shared the panel with Rep. Jack Kingston. Kingston declared, again, for the world to see and hear that he does not believe in evolution. I absolutely expected that declaration from that republican lunatic! I was SHOCKED when Hughley declared that he too does not believe in evolution! And he was serious about that fact! Sheer madness and lunacy!

Example: WAR IN THE MIDDLE EAST! America continues to fight an endless war against the “enemy” over on their soil… an enemy who wants only one thing from every other country on this planet -- to be left the hell alone to survive on their own land on their own terms! Surround them, cordon them off, separate them from the rest of the world… anything! Pull out our people and pull out our money and just let these people survive on their land on their own terms and as the years roll by… well, we’ll see!

Example: Racism in America. I was born in 1959 in Southport, North Carolina. Up until I was 8 years old, I was called Nigger by most of the white people that I met… out of the setting of school. I remember being spit at. I remember being told Niggers should go to hell. I remember the neighbor’s four children who lived across the way from my grandfather’s house yelling “NIGGERS, NIGGERS, NIGGERS” whenever they played out in their yard and I was outside. I also remember the parents never telling the children to stop. I also remember wishing that one day, maybe by the time I was an adult, that nasty racist people will have all vanished off the surface of the planet. I am now 52 years old and I just survived the morally bankrupt administration of George Bush, only to have witnessed two years of the most vile, horrible racist Republican led self-destruction I could not have imagined back in 1963 when it was the norm for southern white people to scream Nigger into the face of a black person. Racism is just as nasty and pervasive as it has ever been! Only now, actions speak louder than words!

These Republican debates are a sad canvas to the rest of the world to observe and dissect! Absolutely shameful behavior!

Example: The black republican! Michael Steele, Herman Cain and Allen West! These men are not only traitors to African-American ideals, but traitors to the very democratic policies implemented by both white and black American freedom fighters who have fought the fight against the darkest side of America, many fighting to the death! Democratic ideas allowed these three black men to be where they are today. And they proudly strut around like Republican peacocks filled with the most virulent, brain rotting… bird flu! Sad!

I could go on and on and on. I just needed to vent this derision from my mind. Newt Gingrich and his take the “poor” student and put them to work as school janitors bullshit has driven me over the edge! And, the fact that white people are not outraged that this man could potentially be the president of America! This man is a true psychopath! What in the world is wrong with American people… American white people… today.

It is a true American psychosis!

THE BLACK AMERICAN RANT

http://thehill.com/blogs/floor-action/senate/227857-senate-rejects-obama-budget-in-99-0-vote

(I have written this as a stream of consciousness! I am not going to correct grammar, syntax or spelling! I am a little angry and this is the raw result! If you are offended by racial components in a rant by a black man, this is not something you should read. I‘ve warned you…)

This is my rant against the republicans in congress voting against every thing Barak Obama sends to them.

I wonder if the president had been a white democrat would the Republican congress have been more willing to work with him, instead of voting to a man and woman, against everything the President offers to them. Remember, the Republican leaders declared that their mission was to make Barak Obama a one term President BEFORE Obama had been in office long enough for anyone to really know what he was about.

I, a black man, never though I would live long enough to see a black man as president of America. I have now seen what it is like for a black man to be president… and so far it hasn’t been pretty.

I am 53 years old and the mystery of life that I believe I will never have fully answered before I die is: Why do so many white people have total disdain for black people? I just don’t get it. I can rationalize the answers in my own mind every day… I still don’t get it.

Talk about a living nightmare? White people of America, live for a day in the shoes of the !!!12%!!! of the population that is African American in this country. It is a goddamn living nightmare to be black in America, sometimes. Many white people wonder out loud why a lot of young blacks act out in louder ways? We are ALL overcompensating for this oftentimes hellish existence living in this goddamn country!

The black population in America is dying off. American blacks do not have a constant stream of foreign African Americans streaming into the country from the country of Africa-America to fill our dwindling population coffer. We are having fewer kids and as the old folks die off, so to does the black population. We are attacked from all social sides as being the scourge of America! And white people across this country BELIEVE that black people are a threat to their jobs and security. That is bullshit!

Unfortunately, about half of the 12 percent of black Americans are jailed, undereducated, ineffective, sick, too old, too young or just to goddamn afraid of American horror show life to try to make a difference. That leaves 6 percent of the black people in America to fend for the other 6 percent. And half of that 6 percent are children and elderly. Do you see my fucking point? There are not enough of us to affect practically any white person in America.

White people see one black person a day and the African-American zombie apocalypse has descended down to murder them all. I, a black man living in Herndon, Virginia have to exist surrounded by hundreds of white people every time I walk out my door! I can’t escape from white people. I can go a full day and see, perhaps, 20 other black people in Northern Virginia. During the same day I will encounter 200 white people. Imagine that…. and now you might wonder why a black man might sometimes look back at a white man, or woman, who is staring at him in a supermarket and ask the person, “What in the hell are you staring at?”


Of course, now the Northern Virginia white person is offended. And now, every one of the 2 or 3 black people he, or she, sees during the course of the day are animal savages… just like their parents told them black people are.

I will never advocate the harming of a white person! But, I was spit on by whites when I was a kid in North Carolina. I was called Nigger every day that I can remember as a child in North Carolina. I was born in 1959, all the way at the bottom of the state… in 1959! I remember the KKK shooting off their guns at night when I was a kid… burying my head under my homemade pillow at night out of fear that some white monster was going to break down the door to my grandfather’s house and kill us all. I remember all that bullshit like it happened last night, and I will never push my memories back into the recesses of my mind and act like none of my past never happened.

Scott Walker, the Wisconsin governor, just showed me with his win just how bat shit crazy white people across this country can be. Scott walker declared war against the people of his state… and like goddamn sheep willingly led right into the slaughter house, those people gave their lives right back to a man who is on tape saying he wanted to “Divide and Conqueror” the people of Wisconsin. And those goddamn stupid ass people, against what should have been their basic survival self-interest instinct, gave the power right back to him. It is the most backward piece of stupidly I have ever seen in America, other than giving George Bush a second term as President.

Wait a goddamn minute. “W” and memories of his crazy Presidency. As fucked-up as “W’s” policies were, he rarely got any real flack from white America. So, there you have it. Bat shit crazy, war mongering ass, former alcoholic and cocaine user Republican President … no fucking problem! A black man in the office? Big fucking problem!

Black people are a strong people, even though everything in this country stacks the deck against them when you rub away the dingy surface covering the shit. You see that man, Barak Obama? You see his composure? I bet his wife has to spend a lot of time talking him down off some mental ledges ever so often. When you are surround by white people who probably hate you at their core, behind the sleazy smiles and courtesies, it has to affect you some way.

This country is going to hell, fast. Racism and religion are leading the pack! Oh, and stupidity and ignorance are right behind it all.

Give a brother a goddamn break. And act like you have some goddamn sense, white America. You are better than what you are showing the rest of the world. And you can start by treating your Niggers a little better… like it was 2012 and not 1912!
