Larry Elder

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Unk's Wild Wild West : One Thread

I just saw this guy make a brief appearance on The O'Reilly Factor. I was impressed but not enough to run right out and buy his book.

He is a radio talk show host (in LA) and has the gift of glibness to go with it. What makes him different is that he is a black Conservative/Libertarian. Here is the page from Amazon that features his book The Ten Things You Can't Say in America.

"What makes him different is that he is a black"

Different than what? Black men normally don't havea radio talk show in LA? Black men normally aren't Conservative/Libertarian? Black men normally aren't glib? Black men normally aren't on The O'Reilly Factor? Black men normally don't write books?

What the hell do you mean, Lars? Wait a minute...Lars; German, blond, blue-eyed? Oh, I get it...Black men normally aren't white...

Well that's ok Uncle Bob, just don't pull my finger or I'll fart.

Mr Misery, you didn't quote me completely. I said "what makes him different is that he is a black Conservative/Libertarian."

How many of those can you name?

Lars is right. There aren't many black conservative libertarians. Most blacks either become high paid basketball players or they collect welfare, which means they are all liberals.

"Just the facts"---

"Among racists, the vote went this way:

Bush 100%"

I guess we know where you are coming from. So which is it---is Larry Elder------

a) a self-hating Neeeegro

b) a whore to the Conservative power-elite (much as Jesse Jackson is a whore to the Liberal power-elite)

c) a pathetic bumbling fool who doesn't understand that the best interests of his own race are to suck-up to the Democrat Good Masssa.

d) a strong, proud independent fellow who takes responsibility for himself and advocates that his brothers do the same

The correct answer is (d).
