Since the devestation of Mother Earth shifting, ravaging Haiti, the media has been attempting to shape our minds around the story.  President Obama was praised for acting so quickly.  One of the first moves by the president was to mobilize 3,500. Army Airborne troops and, 2200 Marines  Wow, I thought Airborne, Marines???  Airborne and Marine units are far from humanitairan units.  I wondered why not Army combat engineers or Navy Construction Battalion (C-Bees), these units would be most beneficial in this environment.  Nope, True combat teams came in first.  The Coast Guard Cutters Tahoma and Valient were the first on scene and in effect the USCG took control of Haitian skys.  The U.S. allows or disallows flights into the airport in Port Au Prince.  They control what countries land and deliver aide and what countries do not.  I Thought of the rebuilding of New Orleans and the no bid contracts awarded to Bush cronies.  And, I wondered to whom would this president award contracts?  The fast move did a lot to strengthen, in the eyes of some Black people, the resolve that president Obama didn't hesitate to save the Haitian people, much as G. W. Bush didn't act in New Orleans after Hurricaine Katrina.  Yet, president Obama invited G. W. Bush to a news conference, a man many Haitians hold a great deal of contempt. 

Now, the "news" is  attempting to shape our thoughts, into seeing the poor Haitians becoming violent  due to the lack of aide and food they weren't receiving and order must be attained.  I suppose when the 82nd Airborne and Marines fire on civilians it will be justified in order to bring about order.  The Haitian National Police have all run off, they're telling us.  Then the Airborne and Marines will have to "act."  Yet, there are other news agencies bringing us another perspective of what is happening in Haitil  Check this video and you decide.

President Obama don't talk like a white guy!

When are Black people going to stop being led by the nose by white folk emotions?  Harry Reid said exactly what many many white people feel and think on a daily basis.  It seems to me Black people would have collectively released a huge "whoomp there it is" in response to Reid's comments.   But, nope, there are many Black people that are up in arms right along with the white people who are up in arms.  But, they, white folk, are only upset because he let out a bit of their "inside the house" commentary.We know or should know many whites feel that darker skinned Black people are more intimidating to them than lighter skinned Blacks.  Yet, many of their historical Black nemesis' have been of the lighter skinned variety such as Huey P. Newton, El Hajj Malik El Shabazz (Malcolm X if you don't know) or Nelson Mandela.  But, they tend to some how cling to their dark psycho-sexual nightmares of raids by Desalines, Marcus Garvey or Nat Turner.

What I find most upsetting is the assumption by whites, that speaking correclty and properly are equal to speaking like a white guy!  As if white people have the market cornered on right and correct speech.  Whenever I hear President Obama speaking I know immediately that a Black man is speaking.  Just as when I hear Min. Farrakhan or Rev. Jessie Jackson speaking, I hear proper and correct speech but, I don't hear a white guy when they're speaking.   President Obama is not dark skinned like his father nor does President Obama speak with that bland white guy Michael Savage/Glenn Beck whine.  Really and truly President Obama doesn't speak like a white guy.  So, why should Black people be upset with what Harry Reid said?  He spoke his mind, confirmed what many of us know and believe and embarrased his white counter parts, that's why they're angry.  They pass off their anger as if they're defending Black people, when they're really upset he exposed their "inside the house" speak.  I need no defense on this one, thank you good white folk.
