Why Does God Exclude Blacks?

Glenn Beck gathered tens of thousands of people for a religious meeting in Washington D.C. and no blacks were invited (neither Hispanics for that matter, but eh, we are just Mexicans) Read the NYT piece on it.

There is an obscure correction:

``Correction: August 28, 2010

An earlier version of this article misstated a quote from Glenn Beck about Americans turning back to God, adding an extraneous "the."''

It seems that Beck people are learning from Tricky Bill; that depends on what is, is.``His quote:``It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is.''''

I stand corrected. I just watched the Sarah Palin speech video clip the NYT put on their site. I did see some dark faces in the back. I guess all of us were invited, it is just that I do not frequent Tea Party gatehrings, oh well.

God Bless America!

Wait a minute, what about ``Virgen de Guadalupe?'' Does Mexico qualify for America?

Grow up people, the world is one, and we are all brothers and sisters coming from Africa! Yes even those white people like Beck and Palin, we are all family, honest.

From Frank Rich today:

``ANOTHER weekend, another grass-roots demonstration starring Real Americans who are mad as hell and want to take back their country from you-know-who. Last Sunday the site was Lower Manhattan, where they jeered the “ground zero mosque.” This weekend, the scene shifted to Washington, where the avatars of oppressed white Tea Party America, Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin, were slated to “reclaim the civil rights movement” (Beck’s words) on the same spot where the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. had his dream exactly 47 years earlier. ''

``While the crowd at Dunbar was mostly African-American, the audience at Mr. Beck’s rally was overwhelmingly white, though a number of speakers and performers were black. ''

Tea Party claims half a million Americans there; I wonder if that only counts whites, maybe if they added the blacks and Mexicans, it would be a little more.

``“My role, as I see it, is to wake America up to the backsliding of principles and values and most of all of God,” he said. “We are a country of God. As I look at the problems in our country, quite honestly, I think the hot breath of destruction is breathing on our necks and to fix it politically is a figure that I don’t see anywhere.” ''

Mr. Beck is the new awakener. Is that a word?

``Raymond Hernandez contributed reporting.''

Definitely there was ONE Mexican there!
