Professor: Obamacare Failed Only Because of Racist "Southern White Radicals"
— Ace

#smarttake.

A professor who teaches constitutional law courses at the City University of New York’s John Jay College of Criminal Justice penned a Christmas Day essay blaming “southern White radicals” for the disastrous, slow-motion train wreck failure that has been the rollout of the Affordable Care Act.

The essay, by Gloria J. Browne-Marshall at the website Politics in Color, is entitled “2013: A Year of Racial Challenges.”

“[S]outhern White radicals vowed to stop implementation of the Obama-care law leading one to wonder if Tea Party members would oppose affordable healthcare if it came from a nonBlack [sic] President,” writes Browne-Marshall.

Instapundit wryly notes: "Seems like this sort of statement might indicate a hostile environment toward white southern students at John Jay, one that might deny them educational opportunities."

If a professor is so ignorant and hate-filled as this, that's probably true. It's embarrassing to even have to explain to this "professor" that "southern white radicals" opposed HillaryCare, too.

The Daily Caller calls the ensuing paragraphs "profoundly disconnected." That's too charitable.


In January, President Barack Obama began his second term. However, southern White radicals vowed to stop implementation of the Obama-care law leading one to wonder if Tea Party members would oppose affordable healthcare if it came from a nonBlack President.

It was 150 years ago that Abraham LincolnÂ’s military order, the Emancipation Proclamation, ended slavery in those same rebellious southern States. Then, as the fight for freedom continued race-based criminal laws replaced slave laws.

In February, Christopher Dorner, African-American, began a killing spree he said was triggered by racism. A well-respected Los Angeles police officer and veteran of the Naval Reserves, DornerÂ’s Manifesto revealed he was fired after reporting excessive force by LAPD.

Dorner claimed the abundance of racism he experienced on his job, and at all-White schools he attended, drove him to kill. Dorner allegedly took his own life when trapped by police. Some called Dorner insane others said a modern-day Nat Turner, referring to the leader of a Virginia slave rebellion in 1831. However, the possibility racism was a core issue in this case was disregarded.

She continues listing her long list of racial resentments in this stream-of-consciousness manner.

43 OT newsflash:

Betsy McCaughey (former Lt. Gov. for Gov. Pataki) gave us a heads-up -- Section 1311-H1B of Obamacare gives the Secy. of HHS "blanket authority" to dictate to PRIVATE insurers what they are ALLOWED to reimburse doctors for.

Doctors who perform procedures on privately insured patients that Obamacare-covered patients can't get, will be barred from getting paid for it BY THE PRIVATE INSURANCE COMPANY.

The Great Levelling goes on.

The modern higher education system is amazing.  It can now provide classes in Rhetoric that once only a schizophrenic streetperson could perform.

 

Seriously, this stuff is getting weirder and weirder by the day.  Only in a completely closed system could such a diatribe be penned.  (And thanks to the internet we now all can see these in the warm comfort of our homes and businesses instead of reading thenm on a winter's day where they were taped to the lampposts.) 

 

I am wondering about this, but I will come down on the side of hope - that the more these rantings receive wider distribution, the larger the backlash against them.  They serve as a better indictment of academia (and allied trades such as media, government, entertainment, street-corner-yellers-at-lampposts, etc.) than anyone on the right could ever put together.

97 I find it ironic that while blacks like these want to yell racism and use  their color  as an excuse for their failures and utter stupidity, at the same time their actions would seem to indicate that they would greatly prefer to be back on a plantation  if you consider that they want whitey to clothe them, feed them, provide support for their copious breeding, give them shelter, educate them, etc..  Think about it.  Isn't the social welfare they are given  today, nothing short of  what the plantation master used to provide, short of the work  required  of them?   If they want "off the plantation", then why don't they act like it.

It's like they never heard of 'HillaryCare.' Posted by: --- at January 02, 2014 12:52 PM (MMC8r) They haven't. One of the many things that drives me batty about the current state of political discourse is the presumption that January 20, 2009 marked some absolutely clean break from everything that had gone before. Attempting to point out that you've opposed whatever for the last quarter century or so is met with a blank stare. Then there's this. 1993 was 20 years ago. Ponder that. I'll wait. Twenty years. So for some 30 year old political activist, what happened with Hillary Care happened when s/he was 10 years old. To the extent that they heard about it, it's some vague kind of thing and now some excuse the Baggers are hauling out because racism and misogyny. Thus, no, it doesn't matter if you opposed Hillary Care because that was forever and ever and ever ago.

105 from National Review, that well known white southern racist, Prof Thomas Sowell:

The challenges ahead are much clearer than what our responses will be. Perhaps the most hopeful sign is that increasing numbers of people seem to have finally — after nearly five long years — begun to see Barack Obama for what he is, rather than for what he seemed to be when judged by his image and rhetoric alone.

What kind of man would blithely disrupt the medical care of millions of Americans and then repeatedly lie to them with glib assurances that they could keep their doctors or health insurance if they wanted to?

One of the many things that drives me batty about the current state of political discourse is the presumption that January 20, 2009 marked some absolutely clean break from everything that had gone before. Attempting to point out that you've opposed whatever for the last quarter century or so is met with a blank stare. Yep. When a leftie starts going on about how the Republican party has been "captured" by "extremists", ask them to point out which policies specifically are the extremists advocating. Also, how are those policies different from what the Republicans have been advocating since the '60s? *blank stare* Faith based initiatives! Whut? Like what specifically? That churches can be charities? They have been since before the USA existed.

For those of you who were all what the actual fuck did you just type, I talked my prof into letting me watch a metric fuckton of Chuck Norris movies and then submit some bullshit paper. I got an A. I think I got the A simply for persuading him to let me do that. This one is hilarious and is even funnier when you see the program for which it was submitted. http://bit.ly/18ZUrcq

193 My undergrad degree is in Criminal Justice (don't ask, I don't know either), and the field is full of loons like this who get hired on with a background in critical criminology, which is essentially the perspective that the cj system is racist. They're there to teach the required sociology type courses about which no one gives a shit, and serve as a counterbalance to the significant numbers of instructors with law enforcement backgrounds who teach things students want to learn like investigations and interrogations techniques and tend to be pretty conservative.

I am a little surprised that they're letting her teach the con law section - most of the instructors for the legal type courses, which are essentially dumbed down law school courses to give future LEO types the basics about crim law and pre-law students an idea of what they're getting into.

Fuck "Godwin's Law".  It's cute and funny but essentially meaningless.

 

With that out of the way, insane racist gibberish like this is very reminiscent of what Goldhagen termed "hallucinogenic anti-semitism" under the Nazis.  Race-obssession and hatred utterly detached from all reality, a form of insanity, but weaponized with evil implications.  At the moment, social and institutional inertia prevent the "weaponization" of this racism beyond the truly shocking racism of the DoJ under Holder and the crude and repugnant race-baiting of the president himself (Zimmerman case, "punish your enemies", and on and on).

 

And I fear this is a fairly good representation of the degradation of America today.  The black populace is, for the most part, disfigured and rendered essentially helpless by racism (their own) - in this case, "racism" defined not just as resentment towards others, but hallucinogenic fantasies about the reality of society around them, how things work, etc.   Like true believers in Germany after '44, they are literally self-destructive, in this case clinging to absurd and pernicious "programs" and ideas even as, after 40 years, this set of bad ideas results in collapse (Detroit, educational outcomes, etc.). 

 

One might ask what's the practical difference between a degraded delusional racist like this "professor" and her ilk and, say, "educated" upper income NPR-listening non-black folks on the Upper West Side or in Noe Valley or Takoma Park or Encinitas.  Not much, really.  At least in terms of their delusions about how society can and should be organized and run. 

 

A high-disinformation "liberal" would attribute the agonies of this idiotic "health care reform" to various non-existent economic or social factors, while the repellent cretin at CUNY absurdly cites "racism".  One is uglier and more offensive, but both are impoverishing the country, making it less free and sensible.  For example, after decades of taking care of myself easily, today marks the beginning of Third World adaptation to provide basic catastrophic medical insurance for me.  Short-term unemployed med insurance, for 6 months, while I look at asset re-titling strategies and options for the wife to go back to her home country in an extreme situation.  The sorts of things that have been common in Third World and middle-income developing countries forever, now becoming rational options in the fucking USA.

 

Happy New Year!

Ok Ace small issue first:

"If a professor is so ignorant and hate-filled as this, "

She is NOT ignorant. She is STUPID. Hate filled--I concur.

This person has lived a very 'narrow' life. Exposure to different cultures, ways of life, modes of thought, emotive responses, etc. has been limited. This is often true of liberals in general. When liberals ARE exposed to such experiences, said experiences are generally discounted. What counts is how THEY feel, what THEY see, what THEY want. We poor peonic idiots that cling to our guns and our religion simply cannot grasp the higher plane that progressives inhabit in their advanced emotional and mental state.  A stupid F'ing idiot is a stupid F'ing idiot no matter the color of their skin. Me ---I HATE stupid people. I could care less about their color, race, persuasion, or height. So—In conclusion, I too am hate filled. I am hate filled for STUPID.

 Incidentally, I am also allergic to pain.—Happy 2014 morons!

243 Does bi-racialism lead one to a more aggessive racial posture than otherwise? Several folks have speculated that Harris-Perry's very middle class Mormon upbringing and very light skin tone may lie behind her race-baiting hysteria. In other words, she's spent her whole life being called "not black enough" by fellow blacks, and she's over-compensating for it.

So I had a bit of an Obamafail run-in with my millionaire Marxist physician uncle on Christmas Eve. I had actually always assumed the guy was at least somewhat intelligent even if we disagreed, he proved to me (and quite a few others) that he is in fact an idiot.


I tend to crack on Obamacare whenever an opportunity arises, especially around the 20-somethings. Well he heard one and said, "You know, I'm getting sick of this, I'm going to defend Obamacare". So I said, "well sit right down, I'd love to hear what the defense is."


So to start, he claimed the only real problem is the website which he claims works perfectly in RI (probably bullshit, I don't really know or care). I asked him if it's so great in RI, why it had to be forced on the rest of the country? He asked me if I thought that states like LA, or AL would do it if they weren't forced? I said obviously not, to which he responded, 'well, that's why.' I asked why forcing people into this system was so important for him, he said it was so they could make sure that everybody has the proper level of insurance.


At this point I kind of laughed and said, "well, that's what makes you a Leftist." The lifelong Marxist got seriously offended at this and claimed he was not on the Left, maybe to me, right-wing extremist, it seemed that way, but he's in no way a Leftist. I said, "with the possible exception of your wife, you are without question the most politically Leftist person among the dozens in this house right now, hell, you started your defense of Obamacare by stating your true desire is for a single payer system. Are you actually aware of what Right-Left even means in the political sense?" At this point I gave him a quick lecture re: the political spectrum, as in state-coercion vs. individual liberty. He clearly didn't like this discussion about the true division between the political Right and Left and wanted to drop the subject, can't say I blame him.


Ok, so back to Obamacare, he then claimed it's great because we're finally getting insurance to the uninsured. I asked about the millions who have had their policies cancelled vs. the (allegedly) hundred thousand or so who have managed to enroll, sounds to me like you just took people previously paying for their own health insurance, and made them uninsured, the exact opposite of your claim. His response was to stop watching Fox News' lies. I told him I don't watch tv news, so he said to stop reading Drudge, lol. I didn't bring up the HQ. FYI, this retard prefaces almost every 'fact' with, "I heard on NPR..."


Then I asked him about the promise to lower costs. He claimed it did. Told him how one of my co-workers has a business she and her husband own. They'd been helping their few employees get insurance, she showed me the plans offered for next year. Not pretty. For a mere $4000/yr more, they could purchase a far shittier family plan with much higher deductables, $6000-$7000/yr more to keep a similar level. He claimed this was just because they were being offered a bad insurance plan before, and now have to pay extra for a good one. I pointed out again that this far more expensive plan was in fact far poorer coverage at which point I think I finally made him snap.


After hearing my story about lower-middle class people getting utterly boned by his elitist bullshit, he completely changed the subject and made it all about me. He lectured me about my lack of compassion, and how on this Christmas season I should warm my heart and have more compassion for people. Again, this is after shrugging off examples of real people getting screwed by his policies, he attacks me for not having compassion for all the hypothetical people of the world, you know, like he does.


Now, I laughed at this line of attack to start, I'm used to it from liberals, but clearly this was all he had left and this is a guy who is not used to losing arguments. So he takes my laughing at this as a Serious You Guys matter and decides his brilliant defense of Obamacare is going to revolve around what a piece of shit I am.


He then absurdly accuses me of not caring about starving children. Well, being the prick I am, my first response to this was, "what starving children?" He got flabbergasted, "what do you mean? Do you actually think there aren't any starving children in this country right now?" I say, "in a country of over 300 million people, I'm sure there's a kid somewhere who could use a bite to eat, but I just don't see hunger as a problem in this country. You're a doctor, you're probably well aware that in this country, poverty and obesity go hand-in-hand." He says, "yeah, because they don't have enough money to buy quality food." I laugh again and pat him on the shoulder, "so I'm glad we can agree that there aren't any children going hungry due to my lack of compassion, right?"


So now I've got him raging, he stands up and pulls the, "I'll win this if I stand over you not allowing you to stand up so I can look down on you while I lecture you". And it was more of the, I'm a heartless prick variety, he even pulled the "I'm 65, how dare you question me" card. I immediately responded, "but my grandparents sitting right there are over 90 and agree with everything I'm saying. What's the new slogan? Don't trust anyone over 90?"


Now he's raging extra-hard started telling me he knows that I'm a racist in my job and that I don't treat people the same based on how prejudiced I am. Prick hasn't the slightest idea what I really do, but he's damn sure I'm a racist at it. Now I know by this point, he was just trolling for an angry reaction from me, a win by default of me cursing him out in front of the family. Well, he wasn't going to get it, I continued to laugh as I shook my head realizing that all respect I'd ever had for this guy had been forever lost.


I wasn't through with him though, got in a few additional digs. Before he left for the night I told him to lay off the NPR, that state-run radio rots your brain. Then the next day during Christmas, I didn't really feel like talking to the douche, but as he left, I shook his hand, looked him in the eye, and said "I wish you a Merry Christmas from the cold crevices of the empty heart-shaped cavity in my chest."


Really though, the main reason I enjoy these types of confrontations is not because I'd thought I'd make a dent on him, I knew I wouldn't. It was for the younger crowd watching on. One of my brother's 25 year old friend was watching the whole thing. He said to me after, "I've heard all about how bad Obamacare is from you, I was actually interested in hearing someone finally defend it, but all he did was keep changing the subject and attacking you." I said, "Yeah, it wasn't much of a defense of Obamacare, but in his defense, claiming that Obamacare is a disaster because I'm a heartless racist is at least as good as the best defense I've heard for this POS to date."

She is pretty, though.

A long time ago, I walked into my English II class at a second-tier eastern University, where I drank to excess, but that's another story.

Taught by a black prof, the syllabus contained title after title of books with a decidedly anti-white bent. I mean, he hated white people.

He really hated white people.

I got the fuck out of there that day and into another English II course where I could underachieve, while drinking heavily.

275.  I too had to suffer through the tiresome  reductio ad heartless conservative  argument with a cousin on Christmas Eve. 

In response, and plagiarizing shamelessly from the Instapundit, I reduced her to an incoherent spittle flewing rage when I told her: "Charity is good for the soul in the same way that lifting weights is good for the muscles.   But forced confiscation and redistribution of wealth via the Tax Code does not discharge your Christian duty to do charity, and does your soul no more good, than making someone else lift weights at gunpoint would do for your biceps..."

304 This is an argument I want to see in other places. Football team owner: Yes, we had a bad year; but it isn't because of the player, the coaches, the management, the plays, or our tactics or team. The problem was our cheerleaders didn't have the fans cheering enough to force a win. Next year we'll be replacing our cheerleading staff and we expect significantly different results. Only cheering matters when determining success or failure.

306 mugiwara @ 1:47 - you. are. awesome. It's difficult arguing with delusional ninnies who ought to know better but refuse to do so! I went through the same thing on global warming with my uncle the university socialism, excuse me, sociology prof and my cousin the physicist professor. Same thing; deflection, misrepresentation, variety pack personal attack. It's useless; all you can do is convince everyone else who hears their arguments that they are full of shit. You'll never convince them. They're invested, personally, in knowing better than you.
