The Swamp That Produced Henry Gates — and Obama
Comrade Obama's friendship with Harvard's highly paid professional racist Henry Louis Gates has offered another chilling look into the milieu that produced our Community Activist in Chief. Regarding Gates' associations:
Since 1991, Gates has been teaching African American studies at Harvard, where he serves as the director of the W. E. B. Du Bois Institute for African and African American Research. De Bois, an American civil rights activist, sociologist, historian and author, was an avowed communist… In 1927 he infamously traveled to the USSR, where he called the Soviet system "the most hopeful vehicle for the world." …
Du Bois joined the Communist Party USA in 1961. He emigrated to Ghana, where he became a naturalized citizen, living in the country's socialist police state. Two years later, the Communist Party named its new youth group the W.E.B. DuBois Clubs.
Serving as director for the Harvard institute immortalizing Du Bois, Gates cultivated black radicals to his race studies department, most prominently bringing in Cornel West, a controversial adviser on Louis Farrakhan's Million Man March with close ties to socialist and black extremist groups. West is a declared personal friend of Farrakhan. … Gates authored two books with West, a long-time member and honorary chair of the Democrat Socialists of America. West served on the black advisory board of Obama's presidential campaign.
From a young age, West proclaimed he admired "the sincere black militancy of Malcolm X, the defiant rage of the Black Panther Party … and the livid black [liberation] theology of James Cone."
What a coincidence: the viciously racist, Marxist diatribes of this same James Cone also inspired Jeremiah Wright, who was Obama's spiritual mentor for 20 years before getting thrown under the bus out of political expediency.
The radical anti-American, anti-liberty, anti-Caucasian movement that spawned The Anointed One is a small world, fortunately.

On a tip from Moonbat Monitor.

Peas, meet pod.
Professional Race Baiting is very lucrative, no?
Like they really care about the 'little people'. Lie, lie and spread more lies to just keep the cash a coming!
Still waiting for the Professional Minority based Race Baiters to apologize to the Duke lacross players. But, not holding my breath.

That's the first picture of Big fat O that I've ever seen where she didn't have her mouth wide open.

Small but incestuous world of radical black racist communists that Obama has befriended, yet has no regret throwing under the bus in a second if their association might affect his presidency. I wonder if they regularly stab each other in the back as much as Obama has stabbed his pastor Rev. Wright.
More from Van's link:
"Gates himself is a strong supporter of affirmative action and a key member of the reparations movement for the descendants of African slaves. He joined an effort to bring a class action lawsuit for reparations and reportedly has been working privately to urge political and business leaders to keep the issue of slavery at the forefront of social-justice discussions and to support his campaign for reparations."
Somebody tell this race mongering SOB that the American taxpayers have already begun paying his coveted reparations years ago with the Great Socitey; the latest installment was the spendulus package Obama signed last January.

Facts like this make it especially tiresome to hear the "polite" talking points from many Conservative pundits about how Emperor Zero and Queen Weezy are just nice, well-meaning-but-misinformed people who only want the best for America. This is no time to be living in denial...

Somebody tell this race mongering SOB that Americans started paying reparations IN BLOOD during the "Civil War" "War Between the States" or "War of Northern Agression" (depending on your perspective) and have sacrificed their lives and treasure since then. When will it be enough? Just say "never" so we can tell you to shut up and get on with the world.

Finally. After seeing this photo eariler today, something about it kept bothering me.
I figured it out.
Gates is suffering from 'Short Man Complex'.
In addition to being an opportunistic Reverse Racist Minority Race Bater (RRMRB), he is also short. His 50% short man hood is suffering.
Therefore, using liberal reasoning, he is overcompensating for being 50% white in his linnage.
That is one screwed up dude. Thank god he teaches at Harvard (he went to Yale, no?).
At least us hiring managers in the 'real world' know better than to hire an ivy league grad for anyting but toilets and envelopes. That is, unless they can prove that they earned their way on something other than being a 50% white reverse biggot.

All this recent attention on this Gates idiot and Harvard University has reminded me of and old joke (by the way, I went to the University of Massachusetts Amherst):
Two men are standing and doing their business in the restroom of an expensive, fancy restaurant.
One of the men finishes his business before the other and starts for the door without washing his hands. The man still using the urinal says in an arrogant and condescending tone,
"At Harvard we were taught to wash our hands before leaving the lavatory."
"Really? At UMASS Amherst they taught us not to piss on our hands." the other man says as he’s pushing open the door to leave...

Certainly puts to rest this idea that Oprah Winfrey is some very "religeous", lovey-dovey person. It's fitting that her following consists largely of ditzy White women- cranks like Gates and Obama are right up their alley.

Oprah-another oppressed victim of racist white America.
