Last night I was listening to the radio BBC and I got so pissed at what was happening I had to get up and get a drink--
That half pint of Smirnov's was not one of the best ideas I have ever had
This was what was going down. One of those prim and proper cows they have on there was interviewing somebody from Russia. The Russkies have decided to put the screws to the Ukranians and charge them the going rate for natural gas--
so much for an orange revolution. Will bush give you--what is a derogatory name for Ukranians, anyway?--free gas? My advice, eat a big sausage some kraut and beans bend over and wait
Anyway they cow (why do people find an English accent so intruiging and sexy? Them people sound like they are talking to you through a clarinet) asked if this wasn't cricket--
Now against this background remember that the English are screwing half of Africa by underpaying for commodities and holding them by the short hairs through their banks among other things like trying to toss Mugabe out (he was cool until he started running the white farmers off the land their ancestors stole)
The Russkie danced around it, typical for a people that shrug and act diffident and then smash your skull in when you aren't looking but I see this all the time.
Get this. The English practically started colonialsim (practicing on white folks--the Irish--til they got it perfected and took it overseas) They colonized a good part of the world. They fought wars to make yellow people take opium. They practiced the slave trade. They are still screwing people in the so called underdevloped world.
About the only population more ignorant and oblivious to the dirt their government does than theirs is ours. They just had a bunch of race riots and cops shot a man dead because he looked like a terrorist and lied about it.
What is the deal? |

Considering that Portugal won its independence from Moorish Spain in 1143, many were later surprised to see that the English even had the wherewithal to embrace a colonialist doctrine. The white chocolate may look good, but it's the dark chocolate that tastes sweet. |

I say the white chocolate look like white shit.... Imagine taking a shit one day, and you look down and notice it's white. That would not be a pretty sight, would it? Well that's what white chocolate look like -- an unpretty sight. Dark chocolate, on the other hand, is pretty as pretty can be. It's easy to imagine taking a shit that's nice smooth and brown. Now that's the kinda shit I wanna see. And which one taste the best, well, I won't go into that, cuz I done messed around and spoiled my appetite. But we'll go with what you said cuz it's true -- it IS the dark chocolate that taste the sweetest -- you got that right! It's the sweetest! It's the prettiest! It's the best! Dark chocolate rules!

So, in other words, you define "English" as "white," and then, just like every other arrogant American, you tell people what they're supposed to believe about their own culture.
The following statement from Zadie Smith was issued by Penguin Books on September 9 2005:
"I have lived in England my entire life and have an enormous love of the place, a fact that is obvious to anyone who has read my fiction. English fiction is my first love and the joy of English culture and history infuses every aspect of my work. I live in the same street I grew up in and have no plans to leave. In the context of a phone conversation about modern England with a New York journalist, we both bemoaned the rise of bad reality TV shows and the obsession with wealth and celebrity that has gripped parts of our culture. I expressed a sadness about these things, and a sadness at the current atmosphere of fear and loathing on the tube which has been the inevitable result of the terrorist attacks upon London. Within the conversation we had, these opinions did not seem controversial. As a committed anglophile, it is really upsetting to see these comments twisted and quoted out of context. I said I had no 'f***ing chance' of getting on the Booker shortlist because it seemed to me that the longlist was of an incredibly high standard. I am amazed and delighted to have been shortlisted alongside British and Irish writers for whom I have nothing but respect."

But according to your theory, there can be no opposition to the NEOCOLONIAL dictator Mugabe (on human rights or any other grounds) without falling under your simplistic racial stereotype of "the English" as synonymous with "white." You say, "he [Mugabe] was cool until he started running the white farmers off the land their ancestors stole," meaning that black Britons (who, according to you, aren't "English") are all supposed to be down with Mugabe and his policies because you say so.
This excerpt from the Hurston-Wright Award-nominated book, "Mandela, Mobutu, and Me: A Newswoman's African Journey" puts Mugabe in perspective, although it's already at least 3 years old.
"... Zimbabwe wasn't a neighbor. Zimbabwe wasn't even a power. Zimbabwe, frankly, was just a quiet, calm country that had hummed along in relative peace for much of its time since independence in 1980, with a respectable industrializing economy, a highly productive agricultural sector, and a relatively well educated population. South Africa's emergence from apartheid in 1994 had been a boon to southern Africa as a whole, and Zimbabwe reaped the benefits of regional peace. But South Africa, apparently, was precisely Zimbabwe's problem. Not actually Zimbabwe's problem, but President Robert Mugabe's problem. A guerrilla fighter who led the former Rhodesia to independence, Mugabe had once towered in the region as leader of the "frontline states" opposing South African apartheid. Then Mandela was freed and South Africa's economic and political clout in the region took off, leaving Mugabe a junior player compared to the globally beloved South African president. The press in the region was filled with little stories about Mugabe's annoyance at Mandela, his allegedly intense jealousy. Mugabe, clearly, sought opportunities to step out as a regional player in his own right, and Congo provided just such an opening. Though his troops did not fight in the first Congo war, Mugabe sent advisers and money to help Kabila's rebels oust Mobutu. After Kabila became president, Zimbabwean companies, most related to the defense industry, rushed into joint ventures with Kabila's new regime. Mugabe was crucial to the successful push to have Congo included in the nations of the Southern African Development Community (SADC), a regional body whose members had heretofore been strictly in the continent's southern cone. Mugabe was chair of the SADC organ on defense and security, and he'd waged a rare public battle with Mandela in 1997 over that security organ's independence and the term limits of its chairmen. Mugabe wanted the organ to be autonomous and not answerable to the overall SADC leader, a post that Mandela then held. And to entrench himself as a as a regional leader, Mugabe wanted the security organ's chairmanship to be a permanent post, not a rotating one. So nasty did their tiff become that Mandela threatened to resign as overall SADC chairman if the organization bowed to Mugabe's demands. Mugabe reportedly believed the SADC should become a sort of NATO- type body for the region, not just a development body. And he got his first chance to flex that kind of muscle when, in 1998, the second Congo war began. He couched the intervention of his own army, plus those of Angola and Namibia, as an SADC mission to rescue a legitimate president. But SADC itself did not approve of the intervention, and Mandela was furious, though ultimately he did publicly agree to the idea that intervening to save Kabila was a worthy goal. With his intervention in the continent's largest conflict, Mugabe was suddenly the man to watch in Southern and Central Africa. As Zimbabwe's military involvement deepened, so, too, did the Congolese business deals of Zimbabwe's ruling elite. Reports of Congolese-Zimbabwean deals in cobalt mining, agriculture, diamonds, you name it, began to accumulate in the continent's press. The deals gave the impression that Zimbabwe had gone into Congo for purely monetary gain. But it seemed clear from Mugabe's clashes with Mandela that he was seeking power and prestige as well. What Mugabe received, instead, was infamy. Over time, Mugabe's image would shift. The once-noble if somewhat eccentric and doctrinaire African leader came to be perceived as greedy, obsessive, strangely erratic, and dangerous. I wish I had met him. I visited Zimbabwe a few times, but came to know only a few of his ministers, not the president himself, and I came to know the country in the throes of a succession of crises whose blame critics lay squarely at Mugabe's feet. His economy was headed down the tubes even before the Congo war. Inflation was soaring and riots over price hikes hit the streets of Harare, the sleepy capital. Unrest over a new wage tax also rocked Mugabe's government. And veterans of the old liberation war started demanding more payouts from a veterans' disability fund that had been looted by corrupt officials. In the midst of all this chaos, Mugabe fell back on his old standby method of pacification: to mollify restive blacks, he threatened to expropriate white-owned commercial farms and redistribute them to the landless. The threat didn't come out of the blue, for land redistribution had been underway in fits and starts since independence. In a nation where whites were 2 percent of the population but owned 70 percent of the arable land, both Zimbabwe and Britain, the former colonial power, agreed on the need for reform, but on a willing-seller basis. But obviously, not enough owners had been willing to sell, which left land as an explosive and emotive issue that Mugabe could easily exploit. As in South Africa, whites in Zimbabwe remained -- even twenty years after independence -- an economically powerful minority. In late 1997, he declared that his government would simply seize more than fourteen hundred commercial farms for redistribution. \b(His action set him on a collision course with the economy,} in which white commercial agriculture was key, and with the international community, which did not support his hostile new measure. With the economy on the skids and new racial conflict flaring over land, \b(Mugabe's deployment of thousands of troops into Congo was greeted at home by angry protest.} The country simply could not afford a war. Antiwar protesters took to the streets, where army troops were called in to quash the demonstrations. Journalists who wrote articles critical of the government -- or even revealed details of the Congo war were arrested and, in some cases, beaten and tortured. Mugabe's credibility reached such a low that for the first time since 1980, he looked potentially vulnerable to an opposition party challenge; and to secure power, he would revert to even more draconian measures that would reveal his claims to democratic leadership as false. Congo's chaos found fertile ground in Harare. Worse, Zimbabwe's troubles began, because of simple geography, to spill into South Africa, its neighbor to the south. More Zimbabweans migrated in search of work, causing more competition for ..." |

Steve:
I'm glad you didn't pick up your marbles and run home after I dusted you a few weeks ago--there is still hope I can straighten your black ass out.
I'll be glad when you discover another writer besides Zadie Smith so you can throw up some more non sequitur type quotes for them--
I must ask you--are you a loyal American? Do you think it fitting that you should defend these English beasts with their hands still dripping with the blood of Nathan Hale, and their clothes still reeking of the smoke of our burning capitol?
Can you put aside the reality of American farms burned, Americans killed American women raped?

You have to remember, Cynique, that poor Chrissy is borderline retarded.
Chris, to say that the english practically started colonialism is to display an astounding ignorance of history. Great Britain used to be a colony.Have you ever heard of a thing called Hadrian's Wall?Probably not.Well, a looooong time ago there was this bunch of folks called the Romans.You might say, Rome is but a city in Italy.That is true, but Rome used to be what we call an Empire.They had these guys organized in things called Legions.What the legions would do is leave rome and go kick a slat out their neighbors.They kept moving outward until they had conquered every piece of land that they knew about and then they would establish these colonies.Down in Northern Africa, all across Europe, even the British Isles.And you know what? They weren't even the first people to do that.The Persians did it, the Babylonians did it, the Incas did it, lots of folks have have been conquering and colonizing other places.Tell the truth, Chris.You had a lot more than a mere half pint, didn't you? |

Rustang:
You stand in puddles of ignorance. There were no English then--the inhabitants of the British Isles were called Britons--they were a Celtic people. There were the Picts and Scots to the North.
English comes from Anglish--Anglo Saxon--the Germans that started invading the country after the Romans left. And even then they were not the English of today, until they got their Viking and Norman indrafts.
You don't know squat about history.
I am ashamed of you. |

It is becoming increasingly apparant that being ashamed is a lifestyle for you, Chris.The land that is now Great Britain was under Roman rule, the people that later migrated there were under Roman rule, so what's your point? And what does that have to do with the Persians? The point that you now appear to be trying to make is that, if someone says that the english practically started colonialism, they have made a very stupid statement.At last. Something that you and I can agree on.The fact that you have, yet again, said something stupid.
As a side note, the lady's name is Elizibeth Hayden. She has written a sci-fi series of three or four books that are apparantly considered to be worthwhile reading. |

What you say will fall on deaf ears, Rustang because the assinine chrishayden, in order to inflate his own sense of self worth, has to make personal attacks on his opponents. And his taking on the role of self-proclaimed winner in any debate is not only his shame, but a pathetic testament to an ego gone bad. Am I revolted by this jerk, or what? LOL. |

Yeah, Rustang, you probably would get along with chrishayden, say, in a barbershop venue, because men like to shoot the shit and jab at each other. Me, I wouldn't be able to tolerate the stench of chris' BS, so fortunately for both of us, he and I will never come face to face. LMAO. |

Food for thought:
Are Chris Hayden and Kola Boof really one and the same?
Think about it....they have very similar writing styles, and both are published by the same press. Then again, I might be jumping the gun, but some research should be done into this... |

You couldn't have possibly read any books by Kola Boof before making that statement.
You comment a lot about Kola. Will you ever do your homework first?
You've been batting duds mainly because you don't know your subject.

Hit a joint every now and again and chill out and enjoy a good blow job.

I assure you chrishayden and Kola are not the same person. Kola is a self-styled diva and chrishayden is a self-important dork. Kola has, however, confessed to going by the name "Snake girl" on the Thumper's Corner board. |
