An Open Letter to Michael Bouldin on the "F" Word and the "P" Word

[EDITOR'S NOTE: It should be made clear to anyone reading this that Mr. Holland, who is so primly lecturing on appropriate speech, has openly advocated that Elizabeth Edwards should die so that Hillary Clinton can be annointed president. I should note that Hillary's campaign is not so thrilled with this kind of advocacy and our readership was overwhelmingly disgusted by several of Mr. Holland's posts, most particularly his advocacy of Elizabeth Edwards' death. So, as you read this, keep this in mind. I have edited Mr. Holland's tags to indicate this.]

"Many Black men and women who respect themselves and respect their readers simply don't use four-letter vulgarities in their writing, as a rule."

Michael, although there are more than 200 posts at my blog over three months, and many more comments, if you search for the "F" word, you will discover that YOU, Michael, are the only person who has EVER used that word at my blog. This was in the context of a comment you wrote defending the radical atheist and anti-religious agenda of many white atheist/agnostic "progressives" whitosphere blogs.

You see, many Black men and women who respect themselves and respect their readers simply don't use four-letter vulgarity in their writing, as a rule.

Words to live by

The way to fight this 'moving forward' frame is not to repeat it--that's the first step. The problem is, Americans want to talk about and correct all the problems the President created and we are in right now. And if we talk about 'moving forward' and looking up the road and turning points--we get distracted from the present.

To reframe, we should force the debate to use a new phrase:

America wants action right now!

This phrase focuses the discussion in Iraq, on immigration policy, on oil policy, on hurricane preparedness--focuses attention on the real concern: a government that fails to act in the face of huge problems.
