James David Manning, HRC supporter, has some very harsh things to say about black politics in the middle of a sermon in which he viciously attacks Obama. Warning, some of this stuff offends me and might offend other readers too. But there is a rage in it that is crying out in a confused, inarticulate way for conservative values, and to understand the rage the unvarnished language must be examined. From a transcript on Rush’s website. I edited out Limbaugh’s editorial comments to focus on the purity of Manning’s rant.
MANNING: They’re pimps and players. Black men, is who they are. Black women are player lovers. That’s why you go to the churches that you go to. You’re player lovers, rather than people of integrity, people of honor. You are the weakest people on the planet, and you have the audacity to accept affirmative action, which says that you are not as qualified as someone else, and you made it alone. You have accepted affirmative action and grinned and held parties to celebrate when the white man says we’ll make a law similar to the Dred Scott decision that says that you are not as qualified as others because of racism and slavery, therefore what is required of the white race is not required of you! And you have applauded affirmative action. You are ignorant, you are despicable through and through!
MANNING: I am the voice crying in the wilderness of planet Earth to the black faces, return and repent, saith the Lord of Hosts of your wicked doings. I got this word from God. It’s in my mouth. The future of you African and African-American people is in my mouth! It’s not in your hand; it’s in my mouth! And I don’t have to compromise with not one of you nappy-head people. The Word of God is in my mouth. Your health is in my mouth! Your ability to eat bread is in my mouth. If I don’t speak, you don’t eat. The Word of God is in my mouth.
MANNING: I’m here to speak the Word of God! I don’t have to compromise with you. You’ve been in this country as slaves for 500 years and you’re still marching and complaining that you don’t have anything, after 500 years! There must be something deficient about your intellectual strength. There must be something deficient about your God to let you be on the bottom as long as you’re on the bottom, and two years from now, Mexicans are going to be running your life and writing your paycheck. If I don’t stand up, I’m your last hope. After me, there will be no hope. Farrakhan didn’t get it for you. Barack is an emissary of the devil.
Now if that isn’t a cry for help from conservatives I’ve never heard one!
