  1. This keeps you up at night, doesn't it, 'Gene?
  2. Funny, why won't you and Obama stop hiding under the moderate political clothe. Stop being the sheep and lets see the wolf. All in fairness, right Eugene.
  3. Maybe he just means that he is not getting any support for his Department - I'm not saying whether or not I agree with his statements about the cuts he and his deputies are facing, but I think it's clear that he feels he is "standing alone" when it comes to fighting these cuts. Why would you automatically think this was all about race?
    Please stop doing that all the time - you loose a little bit of credibility with each article -
  4. When it's a black conservative, it's "pointing fingers", when it's a black liberal, it's " helping the community".....I don't know what took me so long to "get it"! Personally speaking, there should be more black leaders, willing to open their mouth, and do what it takes. I think by " man alone", he meant Barrett and Abele, need I say more?
  5. "maybe he can actually learn how to work with others instead of just pointing fingers all the time." -- said the man who does nothing BUT point fingers (except when calling unruly teens "knuckleheads".
  6. Clarke is wrong, Kane is the only *man alone*. Clarke has many supporters, Kane has none!
  7. Clarke may not be the only black man trying to do something positive, but he is the only black man telling the truth. And, let's be honest, the truth is the only way to help someone. The liberal/socialist way of telling someone what they want to hear really only adds to the rottenness.

  8. Clark is the only black conservative *leader* in town. He stands alone amongst his peers. It's too bad the GOP didn't show up to the meeting in D.C. Where they invited?
  9. I don't think Clarke is capable of working with others.
    His description of himself as a "man alone" isn't just
    whining out of the blue. It goes to the heart of who
    he is. The flip side of that is the equally accurate
    observation that he's a man incapable of caring about
    anyone (aside from himself), in any meaningful way.

    Hence, the capacity to distance himself from the issues
    and pain -- and community feeling -- in the Black community
    (he's not one of "those people"), which allows to identify
    with white, racist wing-nuts, and feel like he's gaining
    something from the association.
