Sparing my faithful three readers the pain of being reminded again of the ever present racist sludge that so impressively flows from the mouth of Jeremiah Wright, I would like to share the personal suffering I am currently enduring as a result of the Obama candidacy.

Let me try to make it short.  Being a long time military man and employee of “da gub’ment” I have had the privilege of working with some of the finest people on earth, and I have also worked with some of the sorriest pieces of garbage humanity ever created.  One thing was always self evident though, the color of a person’s skin was not the deciding factor when decisions were made to “team up.”

But an ugly change is creeping into my psyche…

Enter that foul little person Jeremiah Wright and his word’s of blame aimed at cracker ass crackers.  I mean, after all, nothing is the black man’s fault, right?  I know those weren’t his exact words, but believe me, that’s what they mean to me when I hear ‘em.  His words my friends, are a main reason all of this race garbage is staying in play today in our current presidential election.  Because without “it”, the Democrat party ceases to have a platform.  Without the fictional “oppressed”  and the fictional “oppressors” what do they have?  Nothing.  The victim mentality is the heroin to their power jones.

Today I went to the grocery store, and as I sat outside waiting, I watched the folk’s walk by, each with their own Friday night plans, each with their own money worries, relationship problems and hopes for the future.  Nothing new right?  Wrong.

Today for the first time ever, when I saw a black person, I didn’t just see a person, I saw someone who might think like Jeremiah Wright does.  Do they think that I have done something to oppress them?  Do they think I have done something to hinder their children’s future?  Do they think that I owe them something?  Do they view me as an enemy?  Or far worse than that, do they view America as their enemy, which in turn, and I must be honest here, would then make them my enemy.

I have never felt like this. I’ve always known there were liberal kooks out there, I know there are black separatist active in our communities (Hi Farrakhan!) and to be fair, their are white racist as well.  Both we can all do without.  But I never felt the way I did today and I don’t like it.

Thanks Obama!  Thanks Wright!  Does anyone know where I can pick up a new groove?
