Mychal Massie uses his Feb. 20 WorldNetDaily column to attack Maxine Waters’ remarks about Republicans:
Blacks have two trump cards they can play at any time, in any situation and for any reason. They are “anger” – born out of real or perceived oppressive conditions created by white people – and the “bully factor” – born out of same. As referenced, Waters has a history of making inflammatory and insulting statements, which she defends with her blackness, i.e., it’s the mace she uses to remind people that she has a right to be angry. She has been given a pass her entire political career to say things and engage in behavior that a white representative, media person, or analyst would never be forgiven for, unless they are deemed to have favored status. And even then, we see the power of blacks, because it is they who determine what the acceptable standards are.
Really? The man who calls Michelle Obama “Buttzilla” and plays the Bull Connor card and is in full-blown Obama derangement is complaining about the “anger” and “bully factor” of other people? That’s rich.
But Massie was not done — he defends Fox News’ Eric Bolling’s remark that Water should “step away from the crack pipe” as “jocund,” adding, “Trent Lott was forced out of office for making a harmless statement in a moment of jocularity. When have you heard a white comedian make jokes about blacks? But black comics mock whites as a matter of routine.”
Massie is counting on you to forget exactly what Lott said, which was a tacit endorsement of Strom Thurmond’s segregationist Dixiecrat presidential run in 1948.
