February is Black History Month



Here's a bit of history from the 1960s, from the Citizens Council of Greater New Orleans:

  2. That's funny, I see some screaming idiotic words that would tend to undermine morals, and I'm not even listening to a record.

  3. stopped drinking soda. I can only budget for beer. Soda lost out.

    I have given up on idiots. Truly.

    ....a 30 second spot during the Super Bowl costs $4MM... A TRUE conservative should believe they can spend their money (Coke) anyway they want in any language they want. Me, on the other hand, and a Liberal....I believe in drinking Liberal amounts of beer. or bier. or cerveza. or biere. or olut. or пиво....see, beer in any language is still good.
    America the Beautiful is still a nice song in whatever language.

    say...I wonder how it would sound if they sang it in Canadianese?

  5. Un- Americans?

    The Dude has lost it. Oh well, that's what blind partisanship does to a person. Turns them into an idiot I guess.

  6. "Liberal women are neutering men," says Allen West - so he's hiding out in Misshisspeepee.

  7. Was the West article in the Onion.

    Your news is very timely, a poster from decades ago and an article in a satire blog.

    Did you read that people from Boston have the English and threw their tea into the bay.

  8. Alan West said "We have room for but one flag, the American flag..."


    Well.

    He needs to come to Boston on March 17 and get in every Irish man, woman, and child's face over this. I can't count how many green, white, and orange flags I have personally witnessed flying in the late winter breeze not only here in the EYE-talian North End, but in that hot bed of "UN-Americans," SOUTHIE!!!11!

    And what about Noo Yawk? Chicago?

    Oh, wait. I never, never, never, never, never hear any two-bit loud-mouthed pol complain about that.

    Nor do I ever, ever, ever hear any two-bit, dumbass pol call the EYE-talians "UN-Americans" as they fly the Italian flag high when they win a World Cup, or on Cristoforo Columbo's Day!

    But I do hear that whiney-assed complaint when the "Messicans" fly their beautiful red, white, and green on their cultural holidays.

    I wonder why that is?

    Anyone?


    Are the "Messicans" more UN-American than the Irish and Italians?


    BTW, I'm Irish by marriage, Italian by heritage, and American by birth.

    So I'm red, white, blue, green, and orange!

    It's a Rainbow Sparkle Pony life for me!!!!!!!!

  12. I prefer Miles Davis, Muddy Waters, Dizzy Gillespie, Jimi Hendricks, Louie Armstrong... But damn, they were all great musicians in their choosen genre.

  13. How I neglected to name my favorite blues guitarist B.B. King I'll never know. Lucille!

  14. The Ann Coulter clip is a satire.

    I missed all the neato keen links since posted.

    I would add Taj Mahal, the Platters, Keb Mo...oh, and some others.

  15. okjimm, with Ann Coulter, you never knows if you're reading an actual quote or a satire of one of hers.

    It seems the crazier the quote is, the more believable it is.

    Great additions to the post on "Negro Music."
