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 percent and the
black dropout rate from high schools in some cities has reached 50 percent?

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 percent of the time, black criminals
choose white victims 45 percent 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 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. This needs to be passed around because, this is a
message everyone needs to hear!!!

OK........... will you pass it on ?

YES. I did but will you?

I am
Not racist,
Not violent,
Just not silent anymore

I find it hard to believe that Pat Buchanan would end an open letter with "pass this around". While the letter is good, can't these people stop putting famous people as the works' authors?

I read one that Ronald Reagan wrote just before he died, warning of Obama.

Just kidding.
