AJMarine1,,,

You can't win with some people, no matter what you do they will find something wrong with it! This is especially true when someone doesn't like you or your politics. Its easy to criticise but harder to offer solutions and solve real or perceived problems. What people need to do is ask Harry Belfonta what would he do differently, what solutions does he propose and what would make him happy? I'm not even sure I would want to hear his response, because like I said if someone doesn't like you or your politics the response really doesn't matter because whatever the response is you already know in advance it will be nasty so don't even go there!

tbweb,

Probably said this before, but "Semper Fi" Marine, welcome home.

The most interesting thing about all sides playing the race card and using the N word is that its lost its shock value and effect. Posted by tbweb at 06:07 PM : Jun 05, 2007

Ahhh, speaking English in the U.S.!! For me the issue of English being the primary and official language in the U.S. is a practical consideration, not based in cultural disrespect or insensitivity. I served as Marine in Vietnam and it blows me away that people can't see the advantage of everyone speaking the same language and being on the same channel. If a fellow soldier needs help in any context, language barriers can be fatal. Even in everyday life, not being able to communicate in a medical emergency can be fatal. This is such a stupid issue and when considered in strictly practical terms, not cultural, makes complete sense to me!

You won't get an argument from me about that.

I'll tell you what's even richer than that, the U.S. let 12 to 20 million plus illegal Mexicans walk into the U.S. and set up camp and the hispanic speaking group now out numbers U.S. born Blacks just like that, overnight! Newt Gingrich said on Fox News Sunday this week that there are now 30,000 Mexican gang members in the U.S. committing crimes and murders making the 54 from LA you are crying about look like a minor event. The Black event was a one time event, the Mexican event is on going and getting worst! You need focus on the right priorities, the clear and present danger, the here and now!

"Blacks could argue they had good role models but the white cannibal Jeffrey Dahmer ate them. You see my point."

The good role model that they have, Condi, Thomas Wilson, Colin Powell, etc., they will say that these are: House N****rs, White want a bes. or Oreos. Any one that is successful is a trader.

In my view the best role models from any culture are those who live a crime free life, get an education and pursue their dreams. Role models don't have to be rich in assets, titles, wealth, high positions or any of that. A good role model can simply be a good person who respects the rights of others and most importantly gives something back to the world of value instead of just criticism and hate. Keep life simple, life is good!
