12/29/2008: "Blacks don't want black equality. They want BLACK only!"

Here is an article written by yes, a black journalist. So as you can expect, it will be slanted. Its about Obama's old Senate seat. Blacks don't want the people to vote for his replacement, they want to keep the seat BLACK! This is a perfect example of just how greedy blacks are. As said in the title of this blog, blacks don't want equality, they want things to be specifically and entirely black, whether or not its what's best for the country as a whole!

Bye bye, black Senate seat! The political blackbirds are singing a swan song for the hopes of keeping a U.S. Senate seat in African-American hands. The Rod Blagojevich implosion may have dealt that cause a fatal blow.

Last week's stunning pay-to-play charges led to calls around the nation for a special election to choose President-elect Barack Obama's successor.

That possibility [meaning, the possibility that the people may get the chance to vote for who they actually think best deserves the seat has...] has provoked outrage among black community leaders and politicians. Not so fast, they are saying.

Last month, the Concerned Clergy of Illinois demanded that the governor appoint a "qualified" African American "who can fill this vacancy and who has the capacity to be re-elected when [Obama's] term ends in 2010." The problem, as I wrote then, is that black leaders were at odds on who should get the nod.

After the Blago bomb hit, U.S. Rep. Bobby Rush of Chicago's 1st Congressional District gave some big love to the beleaguered Senate wannabe, U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. The minister's group is solidly behind him. But of course!

"We don't know what the future holds for Congressman Jackson, but I tell you, he's a fine young man," Rush said. "I've known him since he was a toddler. I'm very proud of his accomplishments and achievements in the U.S. House of Representatives, and I think that he's a man of quality."

In an interview on MSNBC, Rush added, "I think that we should have at least one African American in the United States Senate, and I think that African American should be Jesse Jackson Jr."

Oh, what a difference a few days can make. Rush may be Jackson's South Side seat mate, but they are hardly kissing cousins. Those two have had their spats, to say the least.

Meanwhile, the concerned clergy, a cadre of several dozen prominent black ministers, are "appalled" by the fallout of the sensational federal investigation. They see it as a thinly veiled attempt by white pols to hijack the seat, says Stephanie Gadlin, the coalition's spokeswoman.

While they aren't ready to coalesce around Jackson, they are gearing up for a fight. There's a massive conspiracy afoot, Gadlin says. "We see it for what it is. What we are really looking at is 'The Luck of the Irish' -- two Madigans, Fitzgerald, Durbin, Cullerton, Claypool, Daley, and all the rest. They're making a power play to regain the control of the politics, money and jobs in this state.".....

White voters don't and won't accept the idea that America and Illinois need -- and deserve -- a black senator. (When the Senate was all white, they never complained).......

Ok Ms.Washington, here is the real deal. White voters will only accept the idea that only the most qualified person should hold that seat. That's why a special election is being pushed for. If White Americans don't and won't accept the idea that a black person should be in ANY office, would Obama have been voted into the office of President? Sorry babe, you cant blame whitey as you have anymore. The era of white guilt is over. You need to find a new schtick.
