There is an abondance of material to discuss this morning but let's start with the defacing of the Jackie Robinson status in New York. Apparently it's a statue of Jackie Robinson with Peewee Rees. I remember that name from the Abott and Costello skit. He was a guy who stood up for Jackie when few people would. Jackie Robinson is the Barock Obama of his time, facing many of the same things, only much worse, than this President has had to face. Apparently - - baseball teams that the Brooklyn Dodgers played threatened not to engage the Dodgers in play but would rather forfeit the game when play with a Black man on the field. Some of Robinson's fellow beastie team mates didn't even want to play with Robinson. This is a man who had an uphill climb from the git go and a lot of things were against him and his carrier could have been derailed by any number of things you or I wouldn't have to think about twice. Obviously the open racism of society has been a whole lot more apparent these past few years. Whether the original tea party movement was spawned by racists- - is an open question. I honestly didn't think race was a factor in the original tea party movement in the spring of 2009, but it sure is now. As one or more KTLK hosts have put it- - formerly we were taught to fear the Islamic extremists- - and that made sense because they were a threat. When they said, like Helen used to from around here, that President Clinton was a philandering, pot smoking draft dodger- - I agreed with them because he WAS all those things. But when some Arizona group last week ( ) calls President Obama a "half white Moslem" - - along with all the born in Keyna stuff they usually thrown in for free, you know they are nuts. Clearly they can't fault President Obama on the economy. Clearly they can't fault him on sloth about terrorism, because the President has these areas well in hand. In fact now the right is flip flopping and criticizing this President FOR - - closing down the embassies. Have you noticed that? Any time this Preszident does something Right now- - they get after him for THAT. Like when he decided to wait a year before the Employer health coverage mandate- - suddenly all of these right wingers- - who hated Obama Care to begin with- - say "This is the worst thing the President could have done because it will raise the deficet". You can't win for losing. And it was pointed out that Fred Goldman, the other "father of a victim" in a court case- - was really "In your Face" about it- - on the media expressing his oppinion. Yet you didn't see Black organizations saying "Fred Goldman should be kept off the air' or that "Fred Goldman doesn't have a right to say these things". And other Presidents besides Obama have weighed in on Court cases, as we pointed out with George HW Bush on the Rodney King case. Now it seems that Bush "41" has expressed shock at the Trayvon verdict today. So people do side with sanity occasionally. But the right wants to re-define the rules of the game all of a sudden, holding up- - this President to etherial standards we have never demanded of any President.
We now come to Mitt Romney's statements today. I was leary when Moe Kelly first said he agreed with "Former Governor Mitt Romney" on something. It seems that etiquette dictates that you refer to an individual by the previous highest position they held. In this spirit, Hillary Clinton would be referred to as Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, because that takes precednce over the designations of either "First Lady" or "Governor". In the same spirit it apparently is better to refer to Romney as "Governor Romney" rather than "Former Candidate Romney". Any how Mittens has stated that "Many of the fears he had about what would happen if President Obama got another term- - have come to pass" and nobody knows what that means, and apparently Mittens ordered the room swept for bugging devices before he spoke to a select group. But Mittens also said that it would be a mistake for the Republicans to attempt to shut down the government, and although Romney dislikes the Affordable Care Act, there are provisions of that act that would kick in even IF the government were shut down by this House. So occasionally Republicans who have been in the shadows for a while, emerge only to make a "sane" statement that dismays their comtemporaries. This only goes to show how swiftly those perverbial "goal posts" are being moved and what was considered insane behavior only yesterday is considered Main Stream today. There are other "Grim Facts" to quote an AC song, that those on the right should keep in mind. For instance two thirds of the Welfare Mothers are White. And that White illigitimacy is growing faster than Black single mothers. Also some of the worst offenders are "the usual suspects" like Arkansas, Mississippi, and West Virginia, not exactly refuges of ghetto activity. Moe Kelly pointed out that sometimes candidates are perhaps forced to act Insane to get the Republican nomination, and afterward, they aren't under that same constraint, like a military high ranking official who is retired now. I guess the addage is true that "You should listen to the wisdom of your Elders".
And now for the desert portion we have a little Cosmic stuff to top off your day. Today the Romulans on Regelus V or basically the head planet of the Romulan Empire- - they have just caught up to the Cleveland women's bondage story. Unlike their beasty fellow travelers on Sirius A - - the utterly hanious nature of this crime was pointed out and that Romulans haven't tollerated this type of Bondage for a long time, since their experience with Alcyonne a thousand years ago. There is still a lot of talk in the Federation about kicking the Eagles out of the ZAC Tarrot Cannon - - because Dardanians don't believe "the Eagles reflect us". Joe Walsh and Timothy Schmidt or whoever are both "Doobies". Actually Walsh is a Doobie - - but Schmidt is worse. He is a non Edomized Centaurian B. Of the two then it's Walsh and not Schmidt who has slightly better cosmic credentials. Glen Fry has Andromeda D roots. But of course Romulan purists like to talk about the horror of "Human-Animal hybreds". Apparently the other two were supposed to get a Cosmic Report but it got misplaced. I just might remind people once again that no matter your Cosmic overlord ship down here on earth such as with your music carriers- - you may have "Contractual Obligations" elsewhere when you die. Sometimes as we have said- - as in the case of electron swiping in chemistry- - a strong entity will just snatch one from a weaker entity that "can't hold on to them". This was the case with Richi Valenz when the Romulans "stole him back" from the Sirius O people. Some of you may wonder "What's his motive in saying all these things". Well I see myself as more of a conduit or reporter- - just as I also report a lot of things that go on with liberal talk radio that some of you may not have heard.
