What Chickens Roost in Your World

What is the matter with a little piece of peace, love and understanding? Recently I have had to drink more coffee than usual from my prestigious Corporate Dick coffee mug. Somewhere certainly John Lennon said god damn America. Being the greatest that I am I feel compelled to ramble what is on my mind. Sometimes the comedy has to give way to more comedy. One of the central reasons that I have become the greatest CEO of all time, and in the process built the most powerful company in the world, is that I have not pandered to the politically correctness sensitivities of the hypocritical disingenuous media pundits, educators, business leader wannabes etc. A great leader speaks their mind and a great country lets them do so without dissecting every possible atom and molecule of potential meaning that may possibly be spun from or to it. Because our great nation and capitalistic society was built by a majority of white humans, and in some geographical areas these white humans condemned black humans to a life of enslavement and treated as sub-human conditions, does not mean I am not white. I am white. Being so, calls upon my senses to first notice that for the first time I am seeing a black human in America being categorized as being racist. Oh sure presently the media is all pious and swaggering in equality speak as though giving Barack Obama the benefit of the doubt all the while putting the subtle hints of racism by association to a pastor, who is a black human, that has not just seen racism but lived it. Prior to this it has been the silliness of exploding a simple quote by his wife Michelle as being anti American. Any rational individual of any color knows that when someone in their 30s or older begin comments with the words …for the first time in my life… it usually is not the first time at all. For the first time in my life I see the castigation of people into stereotypes of being anti American because they criticize current policies that have possibly become outdated. The great CEOs and leaders who framed our constitution did so with the strong belief that all, and I stress the word ALL, citizens of this great nation are to be allowed inalienable rights. Freedom of speech, religion, and assembly are some of these most precious rights to be protected by the first amendment. Freedom of speech was certainly meant to enable balance and inspire and share thought that cause all to ponder what is right and what is possibly not right. History here has shown that at certain times things were believed to be right and later, because of the right to speak freely and challenge current policies or practices or norms, those things were subsequently deemed to be wrong. With out the freedom to challenge and question, in any manner, would never see new seeds of thought be planted for intellectual advancement so that we all grow for the ever elusive betterment of the human condition. These media pundits and the media channels themselves currently regulate social engineering to the order in which they desire specific outcomes. Slavery was one of them. It was white humans in the Northern states that voiced this challenge to the practices and policies of slavery. Atrocities of this issue have been relegated from and across both sides of the white and black human experience, and they continue to be perpetrated to this day. Being white, growing up white, and living white is completely different than being black, growing up black, and living black, from both perspectives. Especially in the United States of America. Am I the only one that gets the angst that reverend Wright puts forth in some of his selectively chosen soundbites that now play on all media channels? Anyone who thinks differently is incapable of real thought. The point is why or how could a majority of white media pundits truly comprehend and understand the way urban blacks communicate and interact in their communities? Segregation is still prominent. For the first time in my life I am proud to be an American (just as Michelle Obama) to see a black human having a serious chance of being elected as president. Does this now castigate me as being anti American? It gains us all much more than any other kind of attempt to cross this racial divide that does exist because of humans who exist for power, greed, and ratings. If we do not correct our course of discourse amongst each other we will fall from greatness. So fellow corporate citizens figure it out before it all implodes on you. Pettiness returns us nothing of worth.
