Well I can only assume that old Hank must be in pretty desperate need for some publicity. Because now come claims that the offices of the Atlanta Braves were supposedly flooded with all manner racist letters, emails and phone calls attacking Aaron after his interview comparing the way Republicans treat Barry to the Ku Klux Klan. And I’m quite sure that we’re all expected to believe that all of those letters, emails and phone calls came only from irate Republicans, when it fact I wouldn’t be the least bit surprise to find out that they most likely all came from racist Democrats.
Look, I think we all understand quite well how it is that Democrats play this little game of racial politics. And in making his original statement, besides revealing his own ignorance, Aaron also demonstrated the fact that he’s more than willing to side with the political party that has inflicted more pain on the black community and that also created not only slavery, but Jim Crow laws, segregation and the Ku Klux Klan. Aaron is obviously another black who puts a priority on race above all else. So I guess it matters not that Barry is destroying our country, all that matters is that he’s black!
And then we had some imbecilic journalist for that liberal rag USA Today, Bob Nightengale, who, I guess, saw it as being his job to come riding to Aaron’s defense. He claimed the "sheer racism" of the attack against Aaron was similar to the supposed racist onslaught that the black star faced back in 1974 when he finally managed to break Babe Ruth’s home-run record. Which by the way, would have been far more impressive had he been able to do it in the same number of, or fewer, at bats than Ruth had to accomplish that feat and not the few thousand more that it took him. But I digress.
We’re told that one bigoted writer by the name of Edward, and who is probably a Democrat, wrote an email to the Braves’ front office with several expletives and racial slurs contained it, according to The Washington Post. Another supposed baseball fan named Marion called Aaron "a racist scumbag." And then there was Mark who called Aaron a "classless racist" while a writer named David said he planned to burn Aaron’s "I Had a Hammer: The Hank Aaron Story" autobiography. Of course we have no idea if these claims are true, and cannot question the claims by asking for proof.
On the 40th anniversary of his home-run record, Aaron said, "Sure, this country has a black president, but when you look at a black president, President Obama is left with his foot stuck in the mud from all of the Republicans with the way he’s treated. The bigger difference is that back then they had hoods. Now they have neckties and starched shirts." Ya know, for this guy to say something that’s so blatantly false, is really quite pathetic. The opposition that Barry has faced, and continue to face, has nothing whatsoever to do with his skin color, and Aaron knows that. It’s all about his ideology.
The fact of the matter is that Barry is a devoted socialist and has spent the last five years putting this country very firmly on the road to fiscal and economic ruin. And by making the sort of claims that he has, Aaron comes out looking the fool and as nothing more than a puppet of the Democrat Party. And in referring to current race relations in the country, he added, "We have moved in the right direction, and there have been improvements. But we still have a long ways to go in the country." Here once again this fool makes clear, just like Barry, just how much he truly hates this country.
And in an effort to prove his idiotic point, Aaron cited the decrease in U.S.-born black baseball players as evidence of modern-day structural racism. Ok, so I guess Mr. Aaron would have major league teams go out and hire black players even if they suck? According to USA today there are only 67 black players in the major leagues, with three teams not represented by a single African-American player: the San Francisco Giants, Arizona Diamondbacks and St. Louis Cardinals. I have no idea if that’s true and I have neither the time nor the inclination to verify it. It simply doesn’t matter to me.
What does matter to me is that we have racist clones out there doing all that they can to inflame and incite as much racial hatred as they can. And for that they deserve nothing more than the purest form of condemnation. We’re told that we are not allowed to criticize Barry, or his policies, and if we choose to do so we will be labeled as being racists. So we are warned to do so at our own risk. Well look, I am not going to sit silently by while this socialist drone does his best to destroy the country that I spent 24 years of my life defending. So if speaking out makes me a racist, SO BE IT!!
