I used to be a fan of Thomas Sowell. Recently I have found him to be more of a polemicist than an objective writer. I prefer Walter Williams to Sowell, although I am not exceptionally found of him, either. Shelby Steel is another black conservative I am not really wild about (he makes America before the 60s seem like hell on earth). John Mcwhorter ain't that great either.
if it weren't for the 'liberals' (white and black) you condemn so patronisingly, you'd still be picking cotton in the fields of the conservatives you side with today.
Dude, you should check out Nationalblackrepublicans dot com - Dr. Sowell does a lot of writing for their magazine (which is available for download online). The mag has lots of other columns and features by other prominent black conservatives and info about how the Dem party started KKK, & fought civil rights laws, how MLK was a Repub, & how much socialist Dems really keep minorities down, the history of both parties, etc. Great reading! Very informative.
I have read his book, Black Rednecks and White Liberals, therefor it is the only one I can honestly recommend. It was well resourced, articulate, and clearly points out the reasons for the prevalence of "ghetto culture". I have purchased copies for several of my friends and family members. Take care.
...continued quote...Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the PEACEMAKERS for LACK OF PATRIOTISM and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country."
Absolutely awesome. Well done. I have been an avid Sowell fan for years. That was incredible. I have been saying that for years in reference to Communism, but it has been like screaming into the wind. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Before you make tirades against liberal values, and equate them to communism using biased and poorly contextualized arguments... Remember that because of liberals, your wearing a collegiate cap and gown. Also, your free to voice your opinions, vote, and work for someone who doesn't claim you as property. I'm glad your enjoying your liberal freedoms. Or are they communist values?
"modern leftists" are not all good, you'd have to be an extremist not to recognize this. What I'm calling attention too, is the despicable equation, you even made it yourself (oxymoron), of liberal values as being on par with communism and without merit. What makes CERTAIN communist ideals without merit? The truth is that both systems have merits, but fail alone. Making the assumption that communism should immediately be equated with evil...is just as stupid as applying that idea to liberalism.
"The truth is that both systems have merits, but fail alone. Making the assumption that communism should immediately be equated with evil...is just as stupid as applying that idea to liberalism".
Clearly you can not tell that to the millions of people who died under communisms experiments, From Stalin to Pol Pot, that it was NOT evil. Of course you think it would work with "the right people in charge".
Lieberalism is just communism with a newer gift wrapping for sell to the ignorant.
Let me quote from the leader of the Nazi propaganda machine, that united a country behind racist fascism:
"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship...
the way of the left they are very good at using propaganda, just look at the way they paint GOP as all racist rich white men just admit that liberals are evil and get over it
For communism to work, whatever country enforces its policies it has to be controlled by a dictator, because no rational person would willingly agree to having the government control every aspect of their lives. If you think communism is such a great idea, move to China and let its government run your life for a few years. Then come back (if you can manage to escape) and tell me that the Chinese system is morally equivalent to ours.
Why should anyone listen to what you have to say? Surely its bound to be slanted by your defensive egotism and arrogance. Its all I heard in your speech, its in your handles online, and in your response to me. You couldn't rise above those protesting you, by not calling attention to them? Of course not, you needed to lash out with logical fallacies and poorly constructed metaphor.
before you make claims check the facts it was THE GOP that ended slavery and ensured the civil rights act of 1964 passed not the
dems and liberals they voted against it. and communist don't have values, the state is always right. and our freedoms are not granted by liberals they were earned by the blood of true americans
And let's not forget that the true Americans you speak of, be it the founding fathers, those who have died for our country, or men/women serving in our armed forces now are all conservatives.
"Remember that because of liberals, your wearing a collegiate cap and gown."
Wrong., it was overwhelmingly people with conservative (and Christian) values that led the anti slavery movement. Also more republicans voted for the civil rights movement than Dems. MLK was a Republican, and Jim Crow a Democrat. The KK* was a strong arm of the Dem party, and Senator Byrd was not just a member but an organizer. The Republican party was started as an anti slavery party more than anything.
@Protean213 Dick head Lincoln was a Republican, they were the ones to free all the remaining slaves in the Confederate states, that conflict was the Civil War, against the Democrats who wanted to KEEP slavery legal. Then there was Jim Crow, a DEMOCRAT, who imposed all those segregation laws after. The Conservatives freed the slaves, not the liberals.
@mungivm only 4 years late, couldn't care less man/woman/whatever. My politics and ideas have changed quite a bit in that time. However, refer to my posts quoting Herman Goering for your reply. (Tx for the reminder thats a great quote, btw)
good job... but you just posted this, did you mean class of 2007 or is this old... Thomas Sowell is my favorite... he responded to emails I sent him as well!
Im finishing Sowells ,Inside American Education right now ,quite an eye opener.Great video.

"against liberal values"
A true oxymoron
"biased"
And you're not at all biased
"your free to voice your opinions"
Thanks to Republicans
"enjoying your liberal freedoms"
