you gotta luv the way Randy Newman attacks racism

We’re rednecks, were rednecks,
Don’t know our ass from a hole in the ground.
We’re rednecks we’re rednecks
Keepin those niggers down
and this

I went down to the diamond mines with my brother this morning
And we were standin there in a big long line with all them niggers starin at you real hard with those big ugly yellow eyes
It’s christmas in Capetown and it ain’t the same

and this
Hey Mikey!,things have changed since we was growin up
Never used to have any spades around here,now you got em
Never used to have any Mexicans,now you got em
Never used to have any Chinamen,now you got em
Never used to have all this ugly music playin all the time
What ever happened to the old songs
Like The Duke of Earl
Hey Mickey!, what ever happened to the fucking Duke of Earl !!

Lets not forget about our African American Secretary of State, with Colin Powell before her, when she was National Security Adviser. Why, Condoleeeeza Rice even has an oil tanker named after her! Then of course there is Clarence Thomas, and who can forget Alan Keyes! who couldn’t quite defeat Senator Obama in his adopted state of Illinois, to which he is so very loyal.

Perhaps slightly more important than melanin content are the policies a candidate would enact, and the special interests to which he is beholden.

It was the Southern Poverty Law Center that diddled the cops to raid the Texas sect compound.

The SPLC is a wtf master of disinformation.

It works the same way here, probably not on the scale that it does in poorer countries. We have our stories of corrupt cops and, particularly in the south, corrupt sheriff’s. And corrupt officials. It’s a world wide problem, just more noticeable in the poorer countries where state salaries are usually nowhere near enough to get by on. In Brasil it may be a 100 (insert currency here) a month for the town official. In Congress it’s hundreds of thousands. Just a matter of scale.

Well, right-wing policies are primarily designed to transfer wealth and resources from everyone else to the already wealthy. It kind of fits with their other policies that include no one who isn’t wealthy deserves to be wealthy – because if they did, they would already be wealthy. Therefore, they suck and deserve to be poor because they suck. When you frame everything in life around that – it’s not about ‘destroying the middle class’, just a fact of their life in accumulating even more wealth – by any means.

I think part of the problem is that it is seen as a way to obtain money and in some instances power that they would otherwise not have. like most latin american countries, Brasil has a rigid class system. to whichever class you are born, you tend to stay there. There is almost no middle class and well you help the economy by hiring maids and gardeners, drivers, etc.

That is exactly it. I have no idea. Bribery is the norm. I will share some stories with you about the police and stuff later.
