Obamicans Are The Least Objective

I heard a local newspaper columnist ( Wendi Thomas) try and justify this over zealous behavior being exhibited by Barack Obama supporters. I always think back to the movie I saw called "Pimps up, Ho's down." The words of Pretty Tony ring true as if he said them yesterday. Jokingly he said as if it was something to anticipate. "When blacks get in the White house, they gone let things get wide open. Niggas gone be doing everything." Little did I know his words were somewhat prophetic. I'll be darned if he wasn't right to some degree. Barack Obama hasn't even won yet, and blacks are already pulling out the BBQ grills. "Forgive me, I couldn't resist that." But you get the picture though. The nose in the air syndrome has already started. Let's not place our future, and stake our past accomplishments on whether this candidate wins or not.

Some intellectual blacks have totally disregarded the rules and regulations that gave them equal access to the media in the first place. I am tired of hearing Roland Martin's one sided perspectives, and reading Wendi Thomas starry eyed columns. It turns my stomach to hear Michael Eric Dyson rhyming and philosophising, about the plight of blacks in America. He is a modern day Jesse Jackson who sounds like a lyricist posing as a lecturer. He gets a pass for his outburst, but not the writers. They don't even fall short of an outright endorsement. The meeting of black writers and journalist sponsored by "Unity." Was the epitome of this new found behavior being exhibited by Obama supporters. They've even been given a new name. They are called Obamicans. The writers and journalists are a large group of obviously educated blacks who are responsible for reporting the news. They have thrown the first rule of impartial reporting out the window. They had to be reminded by the organizer of the event (Karen Lincoln Michel), that this was nationally televised. Though most of them had already crossed the line. They didn't need the world to see. Of all those who might be considered, Obamicans are the least objective.
