WallyWorld, Politics and Dinosaurs Earlier this week, one of the local customers whom I silently call Archie Bunker came into WallyWorld and asked "Who are you working with...........Obama (meaning my black co-worker). "Oh You must mean our future President," I replied. American is NOT ready for a Black President. "The Country is going to Hades because of Yankee Liberals like you who vote for spooks like Obama," he rants. I advised him, "Actually........ my vote went to Hillary but she's not going to win." He walks away muttering about them darn California Liberals. He still insists that California is a Yankee Northern State. He walks up to my Black co-worker, points at him and says, "I'm watching you Boy." Later on, I talk to the Black Co-Worker called Obama by Mr. Bunker. What's with that guy, is he a wizard under the sheets. "Naw, he's not a racist, he's just plain crazy." The next morning, another co-workers is ranting about Obama winning the Primary. "America is NOT ready for a Black President." In humer, I suggested that perhaps Obama should consider Jeremiah Wright as a running mate. Dang, was America ready for the end of Jim Crow Laws? America might want to consider getting ready for a Black President. Actually the Local customer, Mr. Bunker is a White Dinosaur and Jeremiah Wright is a Black Dinosaur. |

Sometimes it really "irks" me when people like that display their "ignorant" minds!!! Some group is trying once again to raise a HUGE Confederate Flag somewhere near I-95 here in FL. They tried to pull it off on Memorial Day. They were approached and told, we don't want that Flag, it stands for "slavery" [mostly from what I've seen it outwardly declares that they are old country boys who don't like black folks.] They replied that the soldiers that fought in that war should be remembered. I'm sure they will be forced to take it down. I hate DISCRIMINATION and I dislike when I have to hear it. I wouldn't have been able to keep my mouth shut, with your customer. Your co-worker, is an intelligent man that puts that man's remarks where they belong -"he's crazy". He wasn't going to let "hatred" and the likes, take away "his" sunshine. Kudos to him.

...Dinosaur is indeed a correct parallel...no problem though--soon he will be extinct also..Good for your co-worker--shows more intelligence on his part (dinosaur's weren't known for the size of their brains)....
