How Come..

After some people read this - and MISINTERPRET it - I won't be as popular as Obama is right now - but for those who are not feint of heart, and who recognize truth and fairness - I may be pardoned.

Nevertheless, it is an issue that I felt needed to be addressed. Many may THINK it, but not have the intestinal fortitude to actually WRITE it.

Another thought passed through my little pea brain also - in all honesty, do not each of us, as authors, hope that something we have written will survive the ravages of time - and in some sense, immortalize us?

Assuming this is the case, how will I be remembered? Will it be as a great poet - for my poem, On A Nectarine? Or as a pornographer - for some of my downright NASTY stuff? Or will I be taken 'out of context' and regarded as a vicious BIGOT?

Time WOUNDS all HEELS!

P.S. - speaking of HEELS - the picture is for the benefit of all of our politicians, so they may "DO UNTO EACH OTHER" in a SAFE manner!




HOW COME ...

Copyright: 02-13-08 - Tom Hyland


HOW COME ... our Federal government sees fit to only honor one ethnic group?

I happen to be Irish - German/Dutch descent - HOW COME ... we don’t have a whole month devoted to “Dumb Micks?”

Oh sure, we have March 17th, Saint Patrick’s Day - ONE day out of 365, but not a whole month! Did not many honest, hard-working people from The Emerald Isle emigrate here to escape the tyranny of the British Crown? Did they not suffer hardships also? Have there not been many famous people in history that were Irish: Tenors - Authors - Poets - Statesmen?

My former wife of 30 years, and now EX, is Polish, so my kids are half Polish - HOW COME ... they don’t have a whole month to brag about their history? Many a Musician, Composer, Artiste - was Polish!

HOW COME ... there is no: British History Month? French? German? Dutch? Swedish? Scandinavian? Finnish? Norwegian? Italian? Jewish? Russian? Is our government biased against the Caucasian, or WHITE Race? Or is it that all the above are melded together in this MELTING POT of the world, and just called AMERICAN History? HOW COME … are they NOT WORTHY?

What about Mexican, or Spanish? OH, almost forgot, THEY got to be Second Language, which is almost pre-empting FIRST language! But, that’s a totally different BLOG, huh?

HOW COME ... there is no: Japanese History Month? Chinese? Many thousands of them worked like SLAVES building our railroads, cleaning peoples’ clothes, working as cooks! Korean? Vietnamese? Shouldn’t there maybe at least be an Asian Month - To give credit to the YELLOW Race? HOW COME …

And lest we forget - how about The RED Man? HOW COME ... there is no Native American History Month? THEY were here BEFORE all the rest of us immigrants! So many Tribes, so many Nations, so many honored traditions - yet humbled into submission by acts of invasion! HOW COME ... they do not MERIT THEIR MONTH?

HOW COME ... our Federal government has shown such partiality to reward just one race of people to receive such preferential treatment? HOW COME ... every year, for YEARS now, our AMERICAN NATION’S AIRWAVES ONLY PROMOTE “BLACK HISTORY MONTH?”

IS IT SOME FORM OF GUILT? How long must WE - the Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth Generations of a Minority of Slave Owners, continue to PAY for past mistakes of a FEW? Is the great-great-great grandson guilty for the sins of the father - the grandfather, the great-great-great grand-father?
Is this FAIR? Is this The American Way?

HOW COME ... everyone has to be careful, and watch their - P’s and Q’s - and strive to be ‘politically correct’ to use the preferred term of “AFRO-AMERICAN?” It is now taboo, or verboten, to say - Black, or even use the word Negro, which in all of the Romantic languages, is translated as meaning ‘black’ - And yet -

HOW COME … every year, the entire month of FEBRUARY - our television screens are bombarded with the term “BLACK HISTORY MONTH?” PBS, the Public Broadcasting System, is a predominant Airer of many of their ‘SPECIALS’ on this topic, but they are not criticized for NOT calling it - AFRO-AMERICAN History Month, are they? HOW COME … ?

Now, hold on a minute, Pilgrim - before you start calling me names, like: BIGOT - RACIST PIG - or WHITE HONKY - please understand this - I am NOT speaking out against ANY RACE - rather, against our so-called ‘leaders’ and ‘representatives’ and our GOVERNMENT-AT-LARGE! TWO WRONGS DO NOT MAKE A RIGHT! NEVER DID! NEVER WILL!

Reparations and restitution for injustices done to any Minority are certainly important, but NOT at the expense and belittlement of the vast MAJORITY!

This very same principle is now spreading like a CANCER across this Great Nation - Islamo-Fascism, in the form of Shar-ia law, DISGUISED as religious freedom, is infiltrating our: SCHOOLS, COLLEGES, LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, STATE GOVERNMENTS, and even our FEDERAL GOVERNMENT! HOW COME … ?

IF we are supposed to pay homage to ANY race, by selecting any given MONTH of the year to be dedicated to them, then - BY GOD - do the same thing to the other ELEVEN MONTHS of the year - even if it means ALTERNATING months and years to give EQUAL TIME to a large number of ethnic groups or races!

OR -

STOP PRACTICING PARTIALITY, OR SPECIAL TREATMENT - TO ONE SELECT GROUP!

HOW COME … OUR GOVERNMENT CAN’T BE FAIR TO ALL OF OUR CITIZENS?

I often wonder - just what is the MAKE-UP of that elite HANDFUL of POWER-HUNGRY PUPPET-MASTERS THAT ULTIMATELY CONTROLS BOTH THE ‘PURSE-STRINGS’ AND THE ‘PUPPETS’ THEY PUT IN POWER?

My money is on W-A-S-P-s … White Anglo-Saxon Protestants!

Or, is it the Mafia?

Or the Illuminati?


HOW COME … ?
