Roland Martin & Friends: "We SUPPORT Barack Obama"

There are few shows that force me to go into my basement and watch television so I can talk to myself than does the TV One show "Washington Watch With Roland Martin".

Roland Martin supports Obama.

I support:
  • Safe Streets
  • Quality Education
  • Thriving Local Economies
  • Healthy Lifestyle Outcomes.
MY ENEMY are the forces that have FAILED  to deliver upon these points for my community.


On occasion you might hear the people in the video clip below mouth the same words that I do.
In substance they are saying something totally contradictory to what I am saying.

"The problem is that we don't understand how power works.  We are so disenfranchised that for so long...........its not a once ever 4 years thing.  We are so used to fighting the power that we don't understand how to be the power"

Where have you heard about the failure to prepare how to MANAGE as the Black Establishment won power?

The key difference between ME and the people sitting at the table is that they have no intention in DISMISSING the Black Progressive-Fundamentalist Power Structure upon its FAILURES to deliver upon our Permanent Interests.  For them to fire the leadership..........they would have to FIRE themselves and their deeply embedded line of thinking.

The key flaw in their consciousness is that they PRETEND that President Barack Obama should be shaken down as he now sits atop of the Federal Government - all the while they are loathed to make note that he sits atop the SAME MACHINE that they are apart of..................the same machine that has a vertical scaffolding that stretches from our local Black communities, up through all of the rungs of government and into the White House and Federal Legislature.

This specific clip of the conversation between "Roland Martin and Friends" particularly got me riled up.

I must ask everyone of you a question:

Does a group of people who are in CONTROL over the key institutions, the money and the productive human resources there in seek to PROTECT THEIR RESOURCES, leveraging them for their interests OR do they make it their goal to fuse their pot of resources with others and then lobby the government to return their money per their FAIR SHARE in the name of "Social Justice"?



You probably do not have the Flash Player (Get Adobe Flash Player Here) installed for your browser or the video files are misplaced on your server!



The truth is that the places where this Machine that Obama sits atop of is in control don't have the productive capacity to generate the resources necessary to allow them to live at the standard of living that they desire. Thus, it is no surprise, an essential part of this movement is to lobby the government, demanding these resources.

The man said "We need to get money from the government".  To him this was as natural and as comfortable as the proverbial fish in the water, not knowing any other way.  Does this popular director, Mr Hudlan not see that the only reason why he is leaning up the federal government is because the lower rungs of government that have far less people who are hostile to his ideology have failed to field an economic model that would allow the more local resources to be as productive as he needs?

I now feel the need to put to rest the present point of obfuscation being used by the left with regard to "who is raiding the federal treasury".

Recall that their standard statement upon being rebuffed about their attempts to raid the treasury is "Well Why Are You Spending All Of This Money On:"
  • The Iraq War
  • Tax Cuts For The Rich
  • Wall Street Bailouts
  • Bank Bailouts
Again we must note - a group of people who have their interests (and their money) violated would naturally seek to reduce their exposure from the entity that is mishandling these resources.

Secondly the claim that the banks took our money and now they must be punished doesn't seem to extend across those individual mortgage holder or unemployment insurance from this same government.  Those who demand higher taxes upon corporations and a fees targeted at these banks - don't seem to have the same punitive spirit upon "the least of these".

Amen Amen

Add to that the idea about economics; that is building your own economic circumstances based on the power you have so you don't have to continue to beg the government everytime you want to do something.
