Yesterday, Don Lemon, again, held court on CNN. I caught the tale end of his lecture to "Black People." He was clearly impressed with his courage-- in addressing what he thought was an honest appraisal-- of "issues" pertaining to "Black people." I imagine since he is African American, he thought he had free reign to not offend. He urged, in his TV ready way, these "Black People, to keep their neighborhoods clean, and not wear their pants in that baggy style, if they wanted to be taken seriously by... No littering, he counseled.
I am a little racist in the sense that I often hear myself saying, " I love black people." Not aloud, of course. So, I became very defensive on behalf of my black brothers and sisters.
So began another one way argument with Don Lemon. The problem with Black people, is that there is no such thing, Lemon. No such things as African American people,either. There is no such thing as White people, as well. I get the point: You are"one of them," and want everyone to be as terrific as you. But, you simply can not address a "people." It is both meaningless and offensive.
As a person born, Jewish, and who appears to has proudly stayed that way,( because why not be perfectly proud with something so out of one's control? )
If you were a Jew, Dear Don, I would not appreciate you telling me that I am doing things I might not be doing. Acting in ways I might not be acting .
Donald, we all have tons of facets, and this Jewish designation simply does not mean much more than some foods, some expressions, and that if the Nazis come again--I am in trouble.
If say, Wolf Blitzer, who I think is a Jew, began to tell "Jewish People" to .... what.... What do we all supposedly do? Don't be cheap, Wolf? Are you serious, Blitzer? Don't litter? WTF, Wolf? Just that once cause there was no garbage bin in sight. Doesn't make Jews litterers? Gee wiz, Wolf, stick to the prompter.
I wish so many of the stereotypes were true. I wish some Zionist invited me into a conspiracy. Please, I need you or anyone to invite me into a powerful cabal. I have all the requirements. OMG, I'm in some ways as Jewish as it gets. C'mere. OMG, come rescue me Zionist conspirators!!!
I wish all Jews were rich, cause then I'd be rich. I wish all the Jews were smart, so I didn't have to meet all those idiotic Jews I've met.
You get the point, but at this point, some might be wondering about Anthony Wiener's Penis.
Lemon is not done getting on my second to last nerve. (My last nerve has gone the way of my last marble. please pm me if you see them.)
After annoying me, and likely others,with his advice to the Black race, or me, or whomever was listening... Lemon is no longer alone on the screen.
Now, he is joined by a familiar four talking heads. These nearly nameless ( nearly all are forgettable) folks, appear to live in boxes, and they express opinions for a living. Lucky bastards. If I could do it again.... To be a paid talker! who lives in a box ! within a box!.... Please, lord, make me young again, and let me take all the right steps to get to express my opinion of dollars. I am so serious. A talking head who is a part of a Jewish conspiracy? Perfect.
Anyway, Don Lemon, is in avuncular mode again. This time he is all Effete or French or something. He is pooh poohing two of the talking heads, for approving of the fall in poll numbers that seem to doom Wiener's Mayoral ambitions. Don is disgusted with them, and us, as Americans. The polls are showing that we are too critical of Anthony Wiener for touching his pole, then texting and tweeting it too.
It's as if we must be ashamed for expecting shame from others. It's not as if Tony "hung like a Pony," Wiener is acting like John Kennedy and having illicit affairs with Marilyn Monroe.The man had a Junior Wiener (and a Huma ) to care about, and he shows monumentally tacky and nasty judgment.
The man is texting his privates after that first Scandal? The definition of sordid insanity must find a dictionary.
Getting the biggest second chance, and wasting on a cowish woman named, Sydney Leather?
Wolf Blitzer needs to tell Wiener, that he is bad for the Jews.
