I’d sure like to know what African Americans think about all the pandering that goes on in Hollywood for them.
You know, in all the action movies, the president is always black, the secretary of defense is a black female, as is the Admiral who has been called to the Whitehouse to save the world.,
The mayor and the police chief of the city in crisis are also black.

Hell, you’d think they’d throw in the odd Asian or Hispanic just for variety. sake.
Also, why do they always have one black guy hanging out with a bunch of white dudes at a cowboy bar?

Oh, and of course, there’s always a black couple barbequing with white folks or having fun with a bunch of white couples on a cruise. 

Hey, I remember when they used to show black guys married to white women, which at the time was a little shocking, but now, for some reason, they’ve switched to white guys with black girlfriends or wives.

In movies and TV commercials that are targeted at black folks, they don’t seem the same need to include any white people.
How could any of this pandering possibly help anything? Asking for a friend. 🙂

@NatHumphrey: Good morning! The French are permanently pissed that English became the global lingua franca and French didn’t. This to me is what we interpret as apparent “arrogance”. One of many examples I can offer is my sending a little drawing over to the official Picasso authentication committee both in English and French (out of courtesy) for their review. Months later, their response came back in French, knowing damn well I’d have to fire up my translation software to read it. (2/29/24)
Geo: Ahh, the “arrogance” continues. However, Nat, I believe the world will only consider using French as a language when France wins a couple of wars, Nat. 

@JohnGehron: The wife comment is the best! (3/13/23)
Geo: It’s the only logical explanation for my being able to escape, John. 

@RayWhitworth: Lord, “WOKE” is a FOX imaginary word sucked in by gullibles. In reality, the actual meaning of WOKE is Wisdom, Optimist, Knowledge (beyond high school), Education(college, technical. Vocational). the right hates that; they prefer gullible to mold. (3/14/24)
Geo: What I dislike about the folks who call themselves “WOKE,” Ray, is their self-anointed wisdom.

@TimMoore: As a former and proud Navy man, let’s remember “Midway,” where the heavily favored Japanese task force lost FOUR Aircraft Carriers and thousands of men after being ambushed by Admiral Chester Nimitz and his Carrier Genius Admiral Raymond Spruance. The Navy’s intel people in Hawaii broke the Japanese code; thus, as heavy underdogs, our Navy aviation and “ship drivers” destroyed the Soru, Hiryu, Kagi, and Akagi over the course of THREE days! Japan was finished as a Naval power, only to be further decimated at Leyte Gulf three years later (in spite of Bill Halsey’s errors). (3/20/24)
Geo: Unfortunately, Tim, that wasn’t enough because the Japanese were willing to die for their country, so, unlike the Germans, they kept on coming until we dropped a couple of atomic bombs on them.

So, since many of you are probably considering moving to Canada if Trump is re-elected, let me explain what you’re in for.
First of all, they pretty well have all the socialists they need; hell, even the far right is a little bit left of center.

For starters, the average wage in Canada is $43000 compared to $56,000 in the States and you’ll no longer be able to deduct the interest from your mortgage payment. You’ll also pay a provincial and national sales tax and gas is $5.95 a gallon.
Cigarettes cost $130.00 a carton compared to $55.00 here while whiskey costs $33.00 in Canada while the same whiskey costs $18.00 state-side.

Hoses cost 40% more in Canada, while new cars cost about 20% more.
Food is 57% more, and that free health care you’ve heard about, well, you better not need something fixed quickly because it’s a bitch getting a hospital bed.

However, even though getting into Canada is tougher than getting into the United States if you manage it, you’ll love the Canadian people.
They’re still very polite, and even though they’d probably like to tell you to go fuck yourself, they most likely won’t.

@JedDuva: George: When I was in R.O.T.C. at Rose Polytechnic Institute (now Rose-Hulman), in Terrible Haute in 1969-1970, Major Paul Galanti, our instructor with two tours of duty under his belt in Viet Nam, and one-tour in Korea, emphasized how conservation of effort and war materials were key.  Minimize spending on weapons of war and ammunition and minimize harm to the men and women (although they were much fewer in the late 1960s). The thoughtful major repeatedly emphasized that as future lieutenants in the Army Signal Corp and the Corp of Engineers, life and the protection of it was the most important mission. However, the accomplishment of the military goal came second.   One of the principles of American military deterrence has always been that appearance of might.  I am not certain that it is warlike, but after reading much U.S. history, very few American generals embraced war.  (Yes, George Patton did, as did Curtis LeMay.)  Readiness and preparation to answer any challenge have been the U.S. military policy in the post-nuclear age. (Note:  When I took my military physical in 1971 to complete my entry into the Army, my eyesight was below what the Army would accept for an officer, so I was put back into the general draft pool of cannon fodder. (3/19/24)
Geo: Being a Canadian and hearing about my uncles going to war against the Germans in 1939, I know they never forgave America for holding out until 1941 and probably wouldn’t have done it even then if not for the convivence of Pearl Harbor. In fact, at the time, my relatives looked at the Americans as being cowards, as did all my relatives in England and Australia

@DaveCharles: Will Smith and Tom Cruise are hanging with Scientology. Jesus is just alright by me, eh?  Jesus needs to open for Taylor Swift and sort out many of earth super assholes. He could do that in the encore. A little fire and brimstone, I say. Dave, the answer, man’.
(3/21/24)Geo: Every country claims that God is on its side, David. We need Jesus to show up and tell us which one is right so we can stop killing each other.

The only helping hand you might need may be on the end of your arm.

Is it safer for a white person to be in a black neighborhood or the reverse?

Growing up, I wasted a lot of my life trying to impress my parents because when I was finally successful, their only reaction was to be suspicious of how I managed it.

What father looks forward to the day his little girl turns into a woman?

Why does being cool​ always seem​ to be just out of reach?

The truth is women seduce men.

If the extreme left is against it, I’m​ probably for it.

When I lived in Canada, I used to think that black people were superior. Now, not so much.

I find it amazing that my Republican and Democrat friends don’t realize that there’s a far-right and extreme left, which we need to beware of.

You need to tax the preachers, not the Church.

Unfortunately, many people know what to do, but only some do it.

Eventually, the spotlight will either burn out or burn you up.

The only way things get better for you is when they worsen for others.

Most people think they know more than they do.

My generation was told it was a man’s responsibility to provide for and protect the family. I’m unsure how it works today, but  I wish the ladies well.

Ain’t it strange how beautiful women always manage to fall in love with successful men?

Over time, great things become average.

Of course, I’m prejudiced; who ain’t?

Wouldn’t you love to have a peek at the tax returns of all those holy Hollywood socialists to make sure they’re not taking advantage of any of those right-wing tax loopholes?

What do Christmas trees have to do with Christmas and Easter Bunnies with Easter?

Where in the bible does it say that priests can’t have a wife? Even the Popes used to have them.

Hey, you can’t blame Transgenders competing in female sports on us old white guys. Of the 16 voting members of the NCAA,10 are middle-aged women, and four are black or Hispanic.

The only thing better than​ having sex is making love.
