Farrakhan: President Fox Was Right

So proclaims Fox News and USA Today with the same headline, more or less, and story.

"MILWAUKEE — Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan said Mexican President Vicente Fox was right to say that Mexican immigrants take jobs "that not even blacks want."..."Why are you so foolishly sensitive when somebody is telling you the truth?" he asked the crowd at Mercy Memorial Baptist Church. He said blacks and Latinos should form an alliance to correct differences and animosity between the two communities."

---- As I've blogged before, some folks are thrilled to repeat Black pundits when it validates what some whites believe. Proof that Black folks are just "foolishly sensitive to the truth" about Vinnie Fox's comments on Black American employment, because see! Farrakhan (or Cosby) said so. Tell Vinnie both my daughters-in-law are Mexican nationals so we're indeed forming alliances in this family. Also tell Vinnie if not for maquilladoras and illegal immigration his countrymen would rise up and throw his butt, and all of Mexico's government, to the Zapatistas. El Norte el valve for a lot of problems down there, heh?

Will Fox News and USA Today remind us that Farrakhan also says : "And you do with me as is written, but remember that I have warned you that Allah will punish you. You are wicked deceivers of the American people. You have sucked their blood. You are not real Jews, those of you that are not real Jews. You are the synagogue of Satan, and you have wrapped your tentacles around the U.S. government, and you are deceiving and sending this nation to hell. But I warn you in the name of Allah, you would be wise to leave me alone. But if you choose to crucify me, know that Allah will crucify you." - Saviours' Day Speech, Chicago.

But perhaps imam being foolishly sensitive about MSM selective reporting.

If the Minister was talking about AIPAC or the Neo-con protectionism of Israel then he was correct. We see the government feared that Abramoff would flee to Israel. Or that Israel repeatedly requests their spy be released.What about those dancing and cheering Israeli movers when the towers fell?
Frequently the minister is taken out of context and needs his whole speech read or heard before one can understand what he is getting at. A prime example of this is the thing about DC and the Masons. Yes DC is laid out in a Masonic cross. Damn near every politician of that time was an open practicing Mason.
So how does that make him crazy for pointing such things out?

Anon,
I didn't say he was crazy. I'm referring to the idea that MSM will not be quoting Farrakhan as a reasonable man who is "telling you the truth" other than when it alludes to bolstering the idea of Blacks not wanting to work, via something Vincent Fox said.

I'm sorry. I thought the quote about Jews was an attempt to discredit Farrakhan.
I agree the Minister will never be a media favorite as a Black pundit.
Except when they want to discredit something.

Anon,
Thanks for feedback. I'll try to be more clear in the future.
