@Zachw2007 It might just be that Ogletree didn't bend over and spread his cheeks like Clarence Thomas did, where Thomas said, "Yes massa, I'ze be an originalist judge even though that goes against my own social reality."

@drbayoms Good. Because I'm done with you. Bye Bye.

@nutblast23

I'm just "flattered" that you keep responding.

[nutblast23]

@drbayoms Your arrogance knows no bounds. You do not control me, validate, or invalidate me. I don't need an "out" from you nor do I need to waste my fingers on you. I was trying to make a point which is not well-taken by you since you see your comments to be impeccable; your opinions are highly durable and ignorance has to be overcome by the ignorant themselves. I have wasted enough time listening to your self-flattery. You accuse me of being trivial about your "monkey" comment but seriously...

@nutblast23

Self-importance is not achieved by expressing your opinion; it is achieved by the presumption that your own opinion is the most credible and that others are "foolish".........."

Nah, If you truly believed that you would not have attempted that initial "cap-locked dressing down" of me in the first place. This just continues to be a way to quell your ego so that you can find that perfect "out". Sadly, I am too cold hearted to allow you to have it. Even though I know you need it.

@drbayoms Self-importance is not achieved by expressing your opinion; it is achieved by the presumption that your own opinion is the most credible and that others are "foolish" who believe otherwise; fits you like a glove.

@nutblast23

No spin needed. I achieved what I set out to do.

That "self-important" label just might fit you better than me.

[nutblast23]

@drbayoms That is your opinion which you are entitled, but your assumptions seem a little self-important. You should try to get a job at FOX News because you are skilled at spin. It is somewhat farcical and ironic that you accuse me of arrogance.

6.)Actually you are not criticizing anything I said. You are trying to rewrite the narrative here because you overreached and made yourself look foolish. If taking a few extra seconds to read through the debate/argument is too much for you. Maybe it's not very smart to comment in the first place. Just some food for thought. Again, I accept your apology. Even if you are too arrogant to give one.

5.)The "House Negro" indeed WAS complicit to the inhumanity. No shit sherlock. Aren't you simply echoing what I already said in reference to Thomas? That is the reason Thomas is derided by most blacks and some whites. I have already stated that this is the reason Thomas is accepted by conservative whites and hated by others. Thomas fits perfectly into this statement. So, what exactly are you criticizing?
