FOXNews.com - Angie Harmon: I'm Not Racist Because I Disagree With Obama

Celebrity Gossip | Entertainment News | Arts And Entertainment

Angie Harmon is not afraid to come out and say she doesn’t like how President Obama is handling the job — but she’s sick of having to defend herself from being deemed a racist.

"Here's my problem with this, I'm just going to come out and say it. If I have anything to say against Obama it's not because I'm a racist, it's because I don't like what he's doing as President and anybody should be able to feel that way, but what I find now is that if you say anything against him you're called a racist," Harmon told Tarts at Thursday’s Los Angeles launch of the new eyelash-growing formula, Latisse. "But it has nothing to do with it, I don’t care what color he is. I’m just not crazy about what he's doing and I heard all about this, and he’s gonna do that and change and change, so okay … I'm still dressing for a recession over here buddy and we've got unemployment at an all-time high and that was his number one thing and that's the thing I really don't appreciate. If I'm going to disagree with my President, that doesn't make me a racist. If I was to disagree with W, that doesn't make me racist. It has nothing to do with it, it is ridiculous..."

Forget it Ms Harmon. You're not dealing with intellect! You should know better than anyone that most people in your industry aren't the brightest bulbs in the bunch.

States Rebellion Pending

A MINORITY VIEW

BY WALTER E. WILLIAMS

RELEASE: WEDNESDAY, MARCH 25, 2009 AND THEREAFTER

Our Colonial ancestors petitioned and pleaded with King George III to get his boot off their necks. He ignored their pleas, and in 1776, they rightfully declared unilateral independence and went to war. Today it's the same story except Congress is the one usurping the rights of the people and the states, making King George's actions look mild in comparison. Our constitutional ignorance -- perhaps contempt, coupled with the fact that we've become a nation of wimps, sissies and supplicants -- has made us easy prey for Washington's tyrannical forces. But that might be changing a bit. There are rumblings of a long overdue re-emergence of Americans' characteristic spirit of rebellion.

Eight state legislatures have introduced resolutions declaring state sovereignty under the Ninth and 10th amendments to the U.S. Constitution; they include Arizona, Hawaii, Montana, Michigan, Missouri, New Hampshire, Oklahoma and Washington. There's speculation that they will be joined by Alaska, Alabama, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Nevada, Maine and Pennsylvania...

Restoration of the 9th and 10th Amendments is long over due. For that matter, proper interpretation and application of The Constitution is long over due, but especially when it comes to these 2 amendments.

Knowing that so few people actually know, our understand what they say, here are these 2, verbatim.

"AMENDMENT IX(9) - The enumeration in the Constitution f of certain rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people."

"AMENDMENT X(10) - The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."

The Founders said the following: "The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite."
-- James Madison, Federal No. 45, January 26, 1788

"I consider the foundation of the Constitution as laid on this ground that 'all powers not delegated to the United States, by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states or to the people.' To take a single step beyond the boundaries thus specially drawn around the powers of Congress, is to take possession of a boundless field of power not longer susceptible of any definition."
-- Thomas Jefferson, Opinion on the Constitutionality of a National Bank, February 15, 1791

"If Congress can do whatever in their discretion can be done by money, and will promote the general welfare, the government is no longer a limited one possessing enumerated powers, but an indefinite one subject to particular exceptions." James Madison, "Letter to Edmund Pendleton,"
-- James Madison, January 21, 1792, in The Papers of James Madison, vol. 14, Robert A Rutland et. al., ed (Charlottesvile: University Press of Virginia,1984).

[T]he powers of the federal government are enumerated; it can only operate in certain cases; it has legislative powers on defined and limited objects, beyond which it cannot extend its jurisdiction.
-- James Madison, Speech in the Virginia Ratifying Convention, June 6, 1788, Elliot's Debates (in the American Memory collection of the Library of Congress)

"Every State has a natural right in cases not within the compact (casus non faederis) to nullify of their own authority all assumptions of power by others within their limits. Without this right, they would be under the dominion, absolute and unlimited, of whosoever might exercise this right of judgment for them."
-- Thomas Jefferson, Draft Kentucky Resolutions, 1798. The Writings of Thomas Jefferson, (Memorial Edition) Lipscomb and Bergh, editors ME 17:387

" The government of the United States is a definite government, confined to specified objects. It is not like state governments, whose powers are more general. Charity is no part of the legislative duty of the government."
-- James Madison, speech in the House of Representatives, January 10, 1794

It has been objected also against a bill of rights, that, by enumerating particular exceptions to the grant of power, it would disparage those rights which were not placed in that enumeration, and it might follow by implication, that those rights which were not singled out, were intended to be assigned into the hands of the general government, and were consequently insecure. This is one of the most plausible arguments I have ever heard urged against the admission of a bill of rights into this system; but, I conceive, that may be guarded against. I have attempted it, as gentlemen may see by turning to the last clause of the 4th resolution.
-- James Madison, Proposing Bill of Rights to House, June 8, 1789

Obama’s False Choice

March 28, 2009, 7:00 a.m.

A “chaotic and unforgiving capitalism” is exactly what we need right now.

By Mark Steyn

Writing in the Chicago Tribune last week, President Obama fell back on one of his favorite rhetorical tics: “But I also know,” he wrote, “that we need not choose between a chaotic and unforgiving capitalism and an oppressive government-run economy. That is a false choice that will not serve our people or any people.”

Really? For the moment, it’s a “false choice” mainly in the sense that he’s not offering it: “a chaotic and unforgiving capitalism” is not on the menu, which leaves “an oppressive government-run economy” as pretty much the only game in town. How oppressive is yet to be determined: To be sure, the official position remains that only “the richest five percent” will have taxes increased. But you’ll be surprised at the percentage of Americans who wind up in the richest five percent. This year federal government spending will rise to 28.5 per cent of GDP, the highest level ever, with the exception of the peak of the Second World War. The 44th president is proposing to add more to the national debt than the first 43 presidents combined, doubling it in the next six years, and tripling it within the decade. But to talk about it in percentages of this and trillions of that misses the point. It’s not about bookkeeping, it’s about government annexation of the economy, and thus of life: government supervision, government regulation, government control. No matter how small your small business is — plumbing, hairdressing, maple sugaring — the state will be burdening you with more permits, more paperwork, more bureaucracy...

We do not need socialistic programs or control in this country! That's not what this country was founded or built on. Might I suggest that if you don't want to pay your own way and want the government to be your nanny, move to a country that already has that. Stop trying to change this country in to something that it is not and was not intended to be!

Murtha Award Sparks Vet Outrage

March 26, 2009
Military.com|by Christian Lowe

In one of his last moves before leaving office March 13, then-Navy Secretary Donald Winter quietly awarded 19-term Democratic congressman John Murtha (Pa.) with the service's highest civilian honor.

Citing Murtha's "courageous leadership, vision, and loyalty to the men and women of the Department of the Navy," Winter presented the influential chairman of the House Appropriations Committee's defense panel with the Navy's Distinguished Public Service Award, an honor bestowed in "those extraordinary cases where individuals have demonstrated exceptionally outstanding service of substantial and long term benefit to the Navy, Marine Corps, or the Department of the Navy as a whole," a Murtha release stated.

The award generated little publicity when it was given to Murtha in early March, but as news of the honor trickled out, some veterans groups ignited a firestorm of protest...

This is absolutely disgusting! It is a slap in the face to all those who have bravely served this country protecting the freedoms so many of us take for granted. The fact that the morons in Murtha's district would return this waste of human flesh to Congress is an affront to these brave men and women.

I don't care if he did serve himself. He is a disgrace and an embarrassment to the uniform he once wore!

Op-Ed Contributor - Dear A.I.G., I Quit!

NYTimes.com

Published: March 24, 2009

The following is a letter sent on Tuesday by Jake DeSantis, an executive vice president of the American International Group’s financial products unit, to Edward M. Liddy, the chief executive of A.I.G.

DEAR Mr. Liddy,

It is with deep regret that I submit my notice of resignation from A.I.G. Financial Products. I hope you take the time to read this entire letter. Before describing the details of my decision, I want to offer some context:

I am proud of everything I have done for the commodity and equity divisions of A.I.G.-F.P. I was in no way involved in — or responsible for — the credit default swap transactions that have hamstrung A.I.G. Nor were more than a handful of the 400 current employees of A.I.G.-F.P. Most of those responsible have left the company and have conspicuously escaped the public outrage...

What has been done to this gentleman and those he works with is appalling! The fact that they have been targeted for vilification and even destruction by the likes of Barney "My Boy Lolly Pop" Frank, Andrew Cuomo(D-NY AG), and Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn AG) is not only reprehensible, it should scare the daylites out of everyone!

Not only are they targets of government officials, but they have become targets for the likes of ACORN and the service workers union. The protests in front of these peoples homes, the bus tours past them and those at AIG HQ are not spontaneous. They are being organized and led by ACORN and SEIU.

These organizations are going in to poor neighborhoods and picking up people and taking them to these sites and then ginning up the anger and malice that is being seen. What is more disgusting is that they are doing so using our tax dollars which they received through the "stimulous" and omnibus spending bills.

These and other similar organizations received billions of our tax dollars as repayment for their work in getting Obama elected. The amount of money being paid to the various AIG execs pails in comparison to the amount just handed over to ACORN, SEIU, et. al.

It's time that anger and disgust be focused in the proper direction, Washington D.C. and various state capitals for their misappropriation of our money. These are the people that deserve our scorn and contempt. Not private citizens!

The Media Covering for Obama, Gee, There's a News Flash!

'Fox And Friends' Exclusive: Notre Dame In Uproar Over Obama Speech | NewsBusters.org

By Mike Sargent (Bio | Archive)

March 24, 2009 - 18:05 ET

Major media began shielding Barack Obama from criticism early in the presidential primaries. It's no surprise, then, when they continue to do so today. However, the media's collective, instinctive tone-deafness in regard to grassroots activities continues to stun and amaze....

I'm not Catholic so I may need a little enlightening on this one. Why in the world would a CATHOLIC PRIEST, as President of a CATHOLIC university, representing the CATHOLIC CHURCH, invite some one who is COMPLETELY at odds with CATHOLIC teaching?

As a Baptist my views on life are that it starts at the moment of conception. For a reference point I will give you, Jeremiah 1:5 "Before I formed thee in embryo I knew thee; and before thou wast born I sanctified thee,..." (Websters Bible Translation). Knowing that the Catholic Church holds the same belief I and my Church do on this, I find it rather astonishing that a man who is "God's man" and charged with teaching the Word of God would make such an invitation.

The Toxic Assets We Elected

Tuesday, March 24, 2009; A13

With the braying of 328 yahoos -- members of the House of Representatives who voted for retroactive and punitive use of the tax code to confiscate the legal earnings of a small, unpopular group -- still reverberating, the Obama administration yesterday invited private-sector investors to become business partners with the capricious and increasingly anti-constitutional government. This latest plan to unfreeze the financial system came almost half a year after Congress shoveled $700 billion into the Troubled Assets Relief Program, $325 billion of which has been spent without purchasing any toxic assets...

Will nails it! There are a great many of our elected officials working to trash The Constitution. Sadly, there are a large number of people in this country who are encouraging this or just don't care.

Prison time haunts freed ex-agents

Want Supreme Court Review

Saturday, March 21, 2009

Former U.S. Border Patrol agent Ignacio "Nacho" Ramos wakes up in the middle of the night expecting a guard to shine a flashlight in his face. Jose Alonso Compean, his colleague, still has nightmares that he's not really home.

It has not been easy readjusting to life outside their one-man prison cells, where they spent the last two years of their lives in segregation...

Being in law enforcement myself, I find what was done to them reprehensible! The P.O.S. that they shot was here illegally, bringing in illicit drugs and was known to carry a weapon with him at all times. The fact that our government spent our tax dollars to go and bring that worthless shred of human debris back to this country to testify against our law enforcement agents, giving him immunity to do so, is infandous(too odious to be expressed or mentioned)! The fact that his word was given any weight against that of law enforcement agents is equally as infandous. It's too bad that the bullet didn't hit him several inches higher and cleans the gene pool of this garbage!

A Little Humor

Helping the Poor

"You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred. You cannot build character and courage by taking away people's initiative and independence. You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves." -- William J. H. Boetcker(incorrectly attributed to President Lincoln), per Alex M. Triantafilou at the Hamilton County Republican Party blog.

"I am for doing good to the poor, but I differ in opinion of the means. I think the best way of doing good to the poor, is not making them easy in poverty, but leading or driving them out of it." -- Benjamin Franklin, On the Price of Corn and Management of the Poor, November 1776 per Dr. Walter E. Williams

When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic.-- Benjamin Franklin per Dr. Walter E. Williams

...[T]he government of the United States is a definite government, confined to specified objects. It is not like the state governments, whose powers are more general. Charity is no part of the legislative duty of the government." -- James Madison per Dr. Walter E. Williams

Prosperity Lost

A MINORITY VIEW

BY WALTER E. WILLIAMS

RELEASE: WEDNESDAY, MARCH 18, 2009 AND THEREAFTER

Ask the average person which is the correct answer to the following question: Which president gave the biggest tax cuts for the rich -- Reagan or Bush? I would bet the rent money that you would not get the correct response, which is: Presidents have no taxing authority. Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution says: "The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes, duties, imposts and excises." I know that many politicians and news media people read my column. How do we characterize them if they continue to speak of presidents cutting or raising taxes?

Another tax question: If there's an imposition of a property tax on your land, who pays the tax? I guarantee you that land does not pay taxes; only people pay taxes. That means a tax on your land is a tax on you. You say, "Williams, that's pretty elementary, isn't it?" But what do you say to a politician or news media people who propose increasing corporate taxes as means to get rich corporations to pay their rightful share of government? They should be told that they speak nonsense because corporations, like land, do not pay taxes; only people pay taxes...

Surprisingly, there are a great many people who do not understand this concept! I've said for a long time now that if people had to actually make out a check each week for the taxes that are currently automatically deducted there'd be an instant revolt. The majority of people do not look at their pay stub and really take in how much of their wealth is being confiscated! Most people walk through life blissfully ignorant!

Experienced Siena unlikely to suffer NCAA stage fright

THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH

Often in the NCAA men's basketball tournament, a big-conference team can intimidate a mid-major merely by the name on its uniform.

The Ohio States, Kansases and Pittsburghs are regulars on national television. Mid-majors toil in obscurity and can become flustered when they take the court with the big names.

That will not be an issue for the Siena Saints when they play Ohio State in a first-round Midwest regional game Friday night...

I expect Siena to play a good game, but if we play up to our talent this should be a victory for the Scarlet and Gray.

Caterpillar slashes jobs despite stimulus

Washington Times

Tuesday, March 17, 2009

Caterpillar Inc. of Illinois on Tuesday announced nearly 2,400 layoffs despite President Obama using his home state's company as an example of a struggling manufacturer that would benefit from his economic stimulus plan and save jobs...

Hmmm, I thought that the "stimulus" was going to allow Cat to hire more people, not lay more off. That's what the Pres. told us! Lest we forget though, Cat's CEO said this wasn't the case. The Pres. and the Dems in Congress sold everyone a bill of goods that they can't fullfill and is going to have our great-grandchildren in debt!

The Compasion of Democrats!

The kids of Congress members and the President can go to the best schools in DC, but the heck with "the commoner!" FYI, there were children going to Sidwell Friends School, where the Presidents and several Congress members children attend, thanks to vouchers, but not any more! They have to cow tow to the teachers unions!

Good Ideas

BY WALTER E. WILLIAMS

RELEASE: WEDNESDAY, MARCH 11, 2009 AND THEREAFTER

During winter months, I work out 10 minutes on the treadmill and lift weights at seven stations four mornings a week. Over the years, during the spring through fall months, I racked up about 2,000 miles on my road bike. This level of exercise helps account for why, at 73 years, I'm in such good health and physical fitness. So my question to you is whether you think regular exercise is a good idea. I think the answer is definitely yes, if nothing other than its beneficial effects on health care costs. Since exercise is a good idea, would you support a congressional mandate that all Americans engage in regular exercise?...

...You say, "Aha, Williams, you've blown it this time. What about Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution, which says Congress shall provide for the 'general welfare of the United States.'? Surely, healthy Americans contribute to the nation's general welfare." That's precisely the response I'd expect from your average law professor, congressman or derelict U.S. Supreme Court justice. Let's look at what the men who wrote the Constitution had to say about its general welfare clause. In a letter to Edmund Pendleton, James Madison, the father of the Constitution, said, "If Congress can do whatever in their discretion can be done by money, and will promote the General Welfare, the Government is no longer a limited one, possessing enumerated powers, but an indefinite one ..." Madison also said, "With respect to the two words "general welfare," I have always regarded them as qualified by the detail of powers connected with them. To take them in a literal and unlimited sense would be a metamorphosis of the Constitution into a character which there is a host of proofs was not contemplated by its creators." Thomas Jefferson said, "Congress has not unlimited powers to provide for the general welfare, but only those specifically enumerated."...

I most definitely recommend that you click on the link above and read the entire article! Dr. Williams BRILLIANTLY states what I've been saying for quite some time now, our federal government has far over reached its authority.

Barack Obama bets the farm in $4 trillion poker game

From The Times of London

March 6, 2009


The President believes he can change US politics for a generation. If he's wrong he could bankrupt the whole country

Tim Reid

One of the most seductive elements of Barack Obama's ascent to the White House was his unshakeable conviction that he was being called upon, at a time of epochal peril, to bend the arc of history America's way.

Only a candidate possessed with such boldness and self-belief would have challenged Hillary Clinton for the Democratic nomination two years after leaving the Illinois state senate, promising in his first campaign speech to “transform a nation and usher in a new birth of freedom on this Earth”.

Only a man who frequently compares himself to America's greatest President, Abraham Lincoln, would declare that when he was elected, “the rise of the oceans will begin to slow”. Only someone who believes that America is on the crest of a dangerous historic wave - and that he “can help guide it” - would have undertaken a glitzy world tour midway through the campaign...

...Then came his near-$4-trillion budget last week. It is a manifesto to usher in a new age of government activism that involves levels of borrowing and spending never before seen in the US and is a document of such staggering ambition and risk that even some of Mr Obama's Democratic supporters are suddenly beginning to feel a little queasy...

...The markets are so unnerved about Mr Obama's ability to rescue the financial sector, and by the numerous bailouts that have had little effect, that wealth is being destroyed on Wall Street at a rate not seen since the 1930s. The President said on Tuesday that he does not worry about “the day-to-day gyrations of the stock market”, but investors have made it clear that his economic prescriptions have so far failed to reassure them...

This is exactly what the man wants! If you paid any attention during the election(which, obviously, most people did not) you'd have seen and/or heard the tapes from his interview with WBEZ, Chicago Public Radio where he basically said he didn't like the way the Founding Fathers put together the country and his desire to redo it! Don't believe me?! See for yourself. I posted it on Wednesday, October 29 of last year under the title In His Own Words.

EXCLUSIVE: Big donors dominate Obama panel

'Distinguished citizens' include subprime banking executive

EXCLUSIVE:

President Obama's newly named Economic Recovery Advisory Board, the real-world Americans being asked to help solve the nation's financial crisis, includes a union executive who took the Fifth in a federal probe, a billionaire whose failed bank pioneered the subprime mortgage market, and deep-pocket donors who gave or gathered nearly $1.2 million for the president's campaign.

In all, 11 of the 16 board members donated or raised money for Democrats in the last election, according to a Washington Times review of campaign finance records. They include the president and chief operating officer of the American arm of UBS Investment Bank, the Swiss-based bank now at the center of a widening tax evasion probe by the Justice Department and the Internal Revenue Service.

In announcing the board's creation, Mr. Obama described its members as "distinguished citizens outside the government" who were qualified on the basis of achievement, experience, independence and integrity to "bring a diverse set of perspectives and voices from different parts of the country and different sectors of the economy to bear in the formulation and evaluation of economic policy..."

I thought this was going to be the most ethical and transparent administration this country has ever had?!

Sweden's Government Health Care

A MINORITY VIEW

BY WALTER E. WILLIAMS

RELEASE: WEDNESDAY, MARCH 4, 2009 AND THEREAFTER

Government health care advocates used to sing the praises of Britain's National Health Service (NHS). That's until its poor delivery of health care services became known. A recent study by David Green and Laura Casper, "Delay, Denial and Dilution," written for the London-based Institute of Economic Affairs, concludes that the NHS health care services are just about the worst in the developed world. The head of the World Health Organization calculated that Britain has as many as 25,000 unnecessary cancer deaths a year because of under-provision of care. Twelve percent of specialists surveyed admitted refusing kidney dialysis to patients suffering from kidney failure because of limits on cash. Waiting lists for medical treatment have become so long that there are now "waiting lists" for the waiting list.

Government health care advocates sing the praises of Canada's single-payer system. Canada's government system isn't that different from Britain's. For example, after a Canadian has been referred to a specialist, the waiting list for gynecological surgery is four to 12 weeks, cataract removal 12 to 18 weeks, tonsillectomy three to 36 weeks and neurosurgery five to 30 weeks. Toronto-area hospitals, concerned about lawsuits, ask patients to sign a legal release accepting that while delays in treatment may jeopardize their health, they nevertheless hold the hospital blameless. Canadians have an option Britainers don't: close proximity of American hospitals. In fact, the Canadian government spends over $1 billion each year for Canadians to receive medical treatment in our country. I wonder how much money the U.S. government spends for Americans to be treated in Canada.

"OK, Williams," you say, "Sweden is the world's socialist wonder." Sven R. Larson tells about some of Sweden's problems in "Lesson from Sweden's Universal Health System: Tales from the Health-care Crypt," published in the Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons (Spring 2008). Mr. D., a Gothenburg multiple sclerosis patient, was prescribed a new drug. His doctor's request was denied because the drug was 33 percent more expensive than the older medicine. Mr. D. offered to pay for the medicine himself but was prevented from doing so. The bureaucrats said it would set a bad precedent and lead to unequal access to medicine...

Yet all we keep hearing is how great Government run health care it, how our system is so inferior to the these. The scarey thing is that there are people who, even after reading all of this and other such acounts, still want this! I'm not willing to put my life in the hands of government officials and beaurocrats. Anyone that is willing to do so is a FOOL!

PRESIDENT Lyndon John son's administration was known for his War on Poverty. President Obama's will become notable for his War on Prosperity.

We're speaking, of course, of Obama's plans to hike income taxes on the most wealthy 2 or 3 percent of the nation. He's not just raising the top rate to 39.6 percent; he's also disallowing about one-third of top earner's deductions, whether for state and local taxes, charitable contributions or mortgage interest. This is an effective hike in their taxes by an average of about 20 percent...

No society has EVER taxed it's self into prosperity!!! As has been pointed out before, you could confiscate the entire wealth of everyone who makes over the magical 250k mark and still not come close to being able to pay for all the spending that Obama wants. It would not help anyone in any appreciable way. All it will do is kill the engine of our economy. As I keep saying, enough with the class warfare! It is accomplishing NOTHING!

A Nation of Cowards

A MINORITY VIEW

BY WALTER E. WILLIAMS

RELEASE: WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 2009 AND THEREAFTER

Attorney General Eric Holder said the United States is "a nation of cowards" when it comes to race relations. In one sense, he is absolutely right. Many whites, from university administrators and professors, schoolteachers to employers and public officials accept behavior from black people that they wouldn't begin to accept from whites. For example, some of the nation's most elite universities, such as Vanderbilt, Stanford University and the University of California, have yielded to black student demands for separate graduation ceremonies and separate "celebratory events." Universities such as Stanford, Cornell, MIT, and Cal Berkeley have, or have had, segregated dorms. If white students demanded whites-only graduation ceremonies or whites-only dorms, administrators would have labeled their demands as intolerable racism. When black students demand the same thing, these administrators cowardly capitulate. Calling these university administrators cowards is the most flattering characterization of their behavior. They might actually be stupid enough to believe nonsense taught by their some of sociology and psychology professors that blacks can't be racists because they don't have power...

As usual, Dr. Williams hits the nail squarely on the head! If you are not aware of who Dr. Williams is, he is a professor of ecomonics at George Mason University, and he happens to be black.

There is another article on this same subject by Bill Maxwell(who's also black) of the St. Pete Times. It is titled On Race, blacks are cowards too. It's an excellent article!
