Robin Martin: "No Fool Like An Old Fool...78 Year Old Says Obama Is His Moses"

The black conservative Republican, on James Presley, a grandson of slaves: "I'm sure this man has many redeeming qualities - he has been married to the same woman for 57 years, he appears to have lived an upstanding Christian life - but if he managed to get to the ripe old age of 78 and is still looking for Moses to lead him to the [P]romise[d] [L]and then he is just foolish."



In response to Mr. Presley's statement that a black president means people can tell rural black youth that anything is possible, she adds: "Has Black America been so despairing and hopeless that they haven't been telling their children that they can achieve anything? If so, what does that say about us as parents?....Ok, I get that this is historic and we never thought we would see the day but the day has come and it's no deeper that that. We still have work to do for ourselves -- PEBO has promised us nothing. Hope and change are not strategies its just the rhetoric he used to 'inspire' your dumb behinds to vote for him. So be inspired and get off your azzes waiting for Massah PEBO (Moses) to give you scrapes from his table."

Booker Rising response: Today is my Grandma's 88th birthday, so I'll let the old man's comments slide in honor of her. While she doesn't believe that Barry is Moses, regular readers may remember that Grandma - who is a moderate Democrat - believes "God put him in there at this point in time." Ms. Martin can also make her point without the name calling.
