The White Side of the Story of Black Americans.................EXCELLENT

Subject: The White Side of the Story of Black Americans

Pretty hard to argue with this, I think.

This is the reason CNN has dropped Buchanan. It's like Newt G.
said, "You’re not supposed to bring up uncomfortable Facts." (Verified
on Buchanan’s website)
Finally. It is said publicly. I have never seen the white side
explained better! Pat Buchanan had the guts to say it. It is about
time!!
BUCHANAN TO OBAMA- By Patrick J. Buchanan
Barack says we need to have a conversation about race in America.
Fair enough. But this time, it has to be a two-way conversation. White
America needs to be heard from, not just lectured to. This time, the
Silent Majority needs to have its convictions, grievances, and demands
heard. And among them are these:
First, America has been the best country on earth for black
folks. It was here that 600,000 black people, brought from Africa in
slave ships, grew into a community of 40 million, were introduced to
Christian salvation, and reached the greatest levels of freedom and
prosperity blacks have ever known. Jeremiah Wright ought to go down on
his knees and thank God he is an American.
Second, no people anywhere has done more to lift up blacks than
white Americans. Untold trillions have been spent since the '60s on
welfare, food stamps, rent supplements, Section 8 housing, Pell
grants, student loans, legal services, Medicaid, Earned Income Tax
Credits, and poverty programs designed to bring the African-American
community into the mainstream. Governments, businesses, and colleges
have engaged in discrimination against white folks -- with affirmative
action, contract set-asides and quotas -- to advance black applicants
over white applicants. Churches, foundations, civic groups, schools
and individuals all over America have donated their time and money to
support soup kitchens, adult education, day care, retirement and
nursing homes for blacks.
We hear the grievances. Where is the gratitude?
Barack talks about new 'ladders of opportunity' for blacks. Let
him go to Altoona and Johnstown, and ask the white kids in Catholic
schools how many were visited lately by Ivy League recruiters handing
out scholarships for'deserving' white kids.
Is white America really responsible for the fact that the crime
and incarceration rates for African-Americans are seven times those of
white America? Is it really white America's fault that illegitimacy in
the African-American community has hit 70% and the black dropout rate
from high schools in some cities has reached 50%?
Is that the fault of white America or, first and foremost, a
failure of the black community itself?
As for racism, its ugliest manifestation is in interracial crime,
and especially interracial crimes of violence. Is Barack Obama aware
that while white criminals choose black victims 3% of the time, black
criminals choose white victims 45% of the time?
Is Barack aware that black-on-white rapes are 100 times more
common than the reverse, that black-on-white robberies were 139 times
as common in the first three years of this decade as the reverse?
We have all heard ad nauseam from the Rev. Al Sharpton about
Tawana Brawley, the Duke rape case and Jena . And all turned out to be
hoaxes. But about the epidemic of black assaults on whites that are
real, we hear nothing.
Sorry, Barack, some of us have heard it all before, about 40
years and 40 trillion tax dollars ago.
