The one thing the Obama election has exposed is that some, perhaps many, blacks are still on the plantation (and they have been joined by their liberal friends from all races of man). Even though the plantation has been burned to the ground and they have been given their freedom, they refuse to leave the illusion of safety provided by their imprisonment.

The original owners of the plantation have long been replaced by the government, but those who still scream about their victimization are now willing victims of government control, afraid to leave the devil they know for the one they don’t.

And, of course, this condition isn’t improved by leaders like Jackson, Sharpton, Jeremiah Wright, et al who profit from the continued slavery of men, women, and children.

Indeed, the very charge of racism is a cover for perpetuation of the irrational fear of victimization and self-pity. Its reduction or demise would require those who cling to it to give it up…and that demands a leap of faith from the whining immaturity of eternal slavery to the brave self-sufficiency enjoyed by free men.

Those people who hold tight to “racism” have to step off the plantation and take their place in the free world. They must leave the Government Zoo and enter the wild and woolly jungle of the free market and free society.   BTW, that is why racists have so much venom for those who have left the plantation (i.e. conservatives…especially black conservatives).

All that said, the dilemma our country now faces is a strange one considering that Obama promised liberation and equality to his brothers.  Those who support Obama must realize that what Obama is trying to do IS NOT liberate the black man or the poor man or the immigrant.

Like Jackson, Sharpton and Wright, he is feeding into the fear of those who are self-exiled in slavery. He is saying, “don’t worry, I won’t make you leave the plantation. I know you are afraid of freedom…so instead of making you embrace freedom and all it offers, I’ll just get rid of it. I’ll round up all those who are not afraid of freedom and imprison them with you on the new Government Plantation.”

That is what Socialism is…it is the destruction of freedom so that those who fear it are no longer tempted. Socialism creates a zoo for us to live in. It rids humanity of all the excellence and invention and creativity that free men are capable of…and it replaces it with a vast, inescapable zoo of shared mediocrity and imprisonment.

This is Obama’s vision for Amerika!
