The Valdosta Daily Times published a letter on June 16, by “Grady Blankenship” with a heading; “Who is the racist?”
I never used the word racist nor called the Commander-In-Chief of our sons and daughter’s serving at Moody Air Force Base, Iraq or Afghanistan dumb, stupid, a clown, or any other derogatory names generated by American Patriots and Christians---that merits no response from me here.
The writer said that; “I am the only person with a “race” problem and if I could see past President Obama being Black I could see the destruction Obama is doing to our nation and world. First it must be understood that the word ‘race” which was created by whites, itself implies the prejudice that the White race is superior to all other races.”
The People’s Institute of New Orleans Louisiana views “racism” as an equation in which the formula reads, race prejudice + power = racism. The word “race” is too often confused with the word “culture.” However the two terms, though, are as different as politics is from nature.
So we must never forget that “racism” is used to indicate a negative relationship between one race and the remainder of humanity. My letter did not violate the laws of the founder of the Christian faith by speaking ill of anyone. But that a picture be placed in the Valdosta Northern Station Post Office to show respect to all who served our beloved nation including Blacks that respected the other 43 White Male Presidents even before they were considered human beings, received the right to vote or had a president that looked like them. God bless both the righteous and the not so righteous.
I suggest the writer read the book “Undoing Racism” A Philosophy of International Social Change second edition Ronald Chisom and Michael Washington Volume one. ISBN 09653305-1-1.

General Writer Sandy Sanders in VDT's, Speaks Against Obama, Rhynes Responds,
June 18, 2010
The Valdosta Daily Times unending venom directed towards America’s 44th President Obama has become a daily occurrence, and today the General Writer Sandy Sanders wrote: “Mr. President, what’s up? The Axx word on television.”
Even God knows that it is impossible for our 44th president to say or do anything right in the eyes of real Christian Patriots of today, and that in the end these patriots will more than likely be found on the wrong side of history as those of yesterday only to be footnotes on the bottom pages of world history.
Even while our 44th Presidents accomplishments are being recorded in the annals of history for all times and while our sons and daughters serving their country in time of war and economic hardship are feeling a sense of pride to be serving under this historical Commander-In-Chief of our armed forces.
Moreover Black African Americans for the first time in history can see and feel how proud White Americans and the White members of our armed forces have felt while serving under the other forty-three White Male Presidents in time of war and peace. We know it is hard for some Americans to accept this great patriotic pride among Blacks that Whites have always enjoyed until 2008 when the majority of Americans voted a Black man into the Oval Office to serve as the leader of the number one superpower in the world. We understand your pain, but also understand how Blacks have felt without ever having a person in the Oval Office that looked like them. Now we look forward to the day when we will elect our first female into office.
So yes Blacks are extremely proud and unapologetic in this great feeling of jubilation and we are holding this president accountable to treating all people of the earth as equals and being fair to all Gods created beings.
Mr. Sandy Sanders also instructed the president what to do and what not to do in his column, “stop the grand standing, go to the BP Command Center, and lets all work as one to get the oil stopped and the clean up done. There will be plenty of time for everyone’s day in court and for you to whip someone’s Axx.”
OK, now I hope Mr. Sanders will write his next letter directly to me, and I will forward it to the president along with all his solutions so Mr. Sanders can solve the world problems. At which time he will be placed up there with Einstein and others as to contributing to reducing the stress world leaders and patriotic Christians like The Honorable Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Black Female Columnists Star Parker, and others have been suffering from for too long under this incompetent leader, and the real Anti-Christ President that has no birth certificate along with millions of other ungodly traits—as if God made his first mistake by allowing Obama to be born into the world.
I am 100% sure that the critics of the president will be as those critics of the 60s and later found themselves caught up on the wrong side of history when their children and grandchildren found out what was within their hearts during this historical period in American History. Peace always and God bless those who need it the most in times like these....

Columnist Jay Ambrose VDT's, Against Obama, Rhynes Responds...
Monday, June 14, 2010
The recent column published in the Valdosta Daily Times on June 5, 2010 by Columnist Jay Ambrose read: PRESIDENT OBAMA’S SELF-CONTRADICTIONS HURT HIM…AND ARE CATCHING UP WITH HIM CONCERNING HIS PROMISE OF A TRANSPARENT GOVERNMENT.
Mr. Ambrose columns spew out venom towards President Barack Obama in his columns in the Valdosta Daily Times so repeatedly and it seems to have become a routine practice in the Times. However it seems strange that Mr. Ambrose never addresses or criticizes our local news paper and television stations that is perhaps the most closed in the country. Their whiteout of the news worthy information has contributed to keeping citizens ignorant to what goes on at public meetings in the State of Georgia.
There have been two recent Valdosta School Board Meetings concerning hot bed community issues that dealt with the education of our children. In addition there have also been meetings at the Lowndes County Board of Education wherein a retired school Assistant Principal addressed the board that was never published to the general public.
We can only ask why our local news papers and television stations would ignore information from public meetings in the State of Georgia as if these meetings never took place. These omissions remind me of the Old Valdosta City Charter of 1860 Mentality that read in Article 100, Section XI:
“THAT THE MAYOR AND COUNCIL SHALL PASS ALL PROPER AND NECESSARY LAWS AND ORDINANCES FOR THE CONTROL OF SLAVES AND FREE PERSONS OF COLOR IN SAID TOWN AND SUPPRESS AND ABATE ALL NUISANCES ARRIVING FROM HOGS, DOGS, HORSES, OR OTHER STOCK STRAYING AT LARGE IN SAID TOWN, OR FROM OTHER CAUSES.”
Links to ponder: http://medianeeded.blogspot.com, http://sganews.blogspot.com
Our local news media has revealed a practice and patter of keeping the general public deaf, dumb and blind to the times and unable to make intelligent decision based on facts from public meetings in the State of Georgia. How sad?

Valdosta Daily Times, Columnist Jay Ambrose, President Obama, and More
June 8, 2010
TO: Editors, Concerned Americans, Black Commentator, and Beyond
The Valdosta Daily Times column by Columnist Jay Ambrose (June 5, 2010) read; President Obama’s self-contradictions hurt him…, and are catching up with him concerning his promise of a transparent Administration. The communist like Black Female Columnists Star Parkers continues to spew his venom towards our president has become a routine practice in the Times.
Mr. Ambrose needs to write about our local news media whiteout machine that has contributed to keeping citizens ignorant to what goes on at public meetings in the State of Georgia by not informing the general public.
For example: Two recent Valdosta School Board Meetings concerning hot bed community issues about the education of our children were ignored at a high cost to the general public. http://medianeeded.blogspot.com
For over two decades this practice and pattern has kept citizens deaf, dumb, and blind to the times and unable to make intelligent decisions based on facts. Thereby contributing to a closed government mainly because local news papers and television stations has failed inform the general public here in South Georgia, and the times has come to stop this practice and pattern.
Therefore Columnist Ambrose we await your column on getting local news Media outlets to publish what goes on at public Meetings in the State of Georgia along with your condemnation of the Anti-Christ President. While understanding that our sons and daughters are now serving on foreign battlefields under this Executive Commander-In-chief that goes beyond political party affiliations or religious persuasion.

Republicans! "We want our country back!
March 30, 2010
Often we hear that Democrats campaigned for big government, more spending, more federal control, committing suicide by passing the Health Care Bill, not listening to Republicans, Obama Administration has put the country on the wrong tract and they will have consequences.
Sarah Palin repeated the republican line in Search Light, Nevada, that “We want our country back.” Our 44th President did not take our country but was voted into office by the American people. So why use rhetoric “We want our country back.”
Ms Palin words are not just applicable to republicans. The Native Americans want their country back. The Latino’s want Texas and other former territories back. Black African Americans want their ancestor’s pay for free labor back. Blacks want their African names, language, and the knowledge of their family linage back. The old man wants his teeth back. The old woman wants her youthful mobility back, and the horse wants the rider off his back, back.
Moreover the continent of Africa wants their human and natural resources back. Palestinians, Jews, Arabs, and others want their oil and land back. The earth wants its flesh back from man. The air wants their radio and television waves and frequencies back. The sky wants its air space back. The clouds want its water drops back. The earth wants its unpolluted state of being back. Volcanoes want their ash and other precious minerals back. The sun wants its heat rays of life back.
Mothers and fathers want their deceased children back. Trees want their wood back that was used to build our homes and factories. Vegetation wants its oxygen back. The honey bees want their honey and pollination back. The streams, rivers, lakes, and oceans want their fish and other sea creatures back. And God want everything back and so the story goes on, and on, and on.
But as Paul Harvey would say, and now the rest of the story. Our 44th President Barack Obama has not taken over the country anymore than the other 43 White Male Presidents. This great conceptional takeover is only within the minds of those with flat spots in their head and only God knows what else.

President Obama, dammed if he do, and dammed if he don't. No win for him. How sad?
Hello World!
First American President (Barack Obama) Dam if he do, dammed if he don't. No win for HIM in America. How sad, and have Dr. Martin L. King's Dream turned into a nightmare? Only GOD knows; where American will go from here?
As a Retired Military Veteran of the Vietnam Era, I never dreamed that I would see such disrespect directed towards the Executive Commander-In-Chief of our Armed Forces serving on foreign battlefields by America’s News Media Outlets, Active Duty, Retired Colonels, Generals, Admirals, Members of Congress, Governors, Mayors, County Commissioners, School Superintendents and others.
America’s service members are comprised of Republicans, Democrats, Independents, Yankees, Rebels, Latinos, Muslims, Jews, Christians, Hindu, Atheists, Blacks, Whites, Asians, Native Americans, and others whose lives are in danger under the orders of our 44th President.
While America’s Service Members children live in shock and awe as they witness the venom now being cast upon their fathers and mothers Executive Commander-In-Chief that sent them into combat to defend our beloved nation. How Sad?
Not even during the Revolutionary War, Slavery, Civil War, Jim Crow, the Lynching Crusades, or Civil Rights Movement was a president so disrespected as our 44th President on FOX News recently. Not even when Blacks were labeled three fifths of a human being; and denied their citizens ship rights under previous presidents.
http://1stblkpresident.blogspot.com
Therefore, we can only imagine how the children of these service members will respond; when called upon by the next president to serve their beloved nation. That may be of a different political party or have a different skin tone. Were not all military veterans trained to respect the Office of President of the United States at all time—period? America we can, and must do better.

General W. Troy Tolbert's, President Omaha, Humpty Dumpty, Moody Air Force Personnel,
February 4, 2010
Unpublished, in Valdosta Daily Times?
TO: Editor, Blog, Internet, Concerned Citizens and Beyond
I agree with retired [B. General W. Troy Tolbert’s] letter published in the Valdosta Daily Times on February 4, 2010. Wherein he said, “Let’s just be Americans and do what’s best for our country. The people have spoken. Let’s start anew, and God bless America!”
Many Americans are working to build a better nation. However [General Tolbert] seems unrelenting in his efforts along with others to see our 44th President fail at all cost. But as Vietnam Era Retired Military Veteran. I take issues with repeated name-calling and negative cartoons of the Executive-Commander-In Chief----- of our armed forces in Iraq, Afghanistan and in other war torn areas around the world.
I agree with the general’s remarks. “Lets just try to be Americans.” The American people respected the other 43 Presidents. It seems that the general continues to set a bad precedence for all future American Presidents at home and abroad. How Sad?
Not even during slavery, Jim Crow, segregation, and the Civil Rights Movement did citizens, active duty and retired military generals refer to members of our Armed Forces Executive Commander-In-Chief as a clown, unpatriotic, foreigner, chimp, liar, humpty dumpy and many other derogatory names in the eyes of the world.
Are we aware that Valdosta is home to Moody Air Force Base Georgia, wherein our children are deployed on foreign battlefields under our 44th President? Therefore humpty dumpty will not resolve America’s problems, and if any American Veteran has a better method or resolution concerning the health care issue. Our 44th President has asked publicly for their help.
So yes! Let us be good Americans by working to resolve America’s problems instead of being a contributing factor to the problem along political lines.

Columnist Ray Ambrose, Star Parker, President Obama, Moody Air Force Base Personnel...
February 10, 2010
[published in the Valdosta Daily Times]
Columnist Ray Ambrose column in the Valdosta Daily Times on February 7, 2010 is a continuous effort to dishonor our 44th President that read; “Obama’s answer: Blame Bush.” “From President Obama’s inaugural speech to his recent State of the Union Address, he has had a common theme. Bush did it…”
Columnist Ambrose joins Black female Columnist Star Parker and others that spews venomous comments at members of our Armed Forces Executive Commander-In-Chief even though Valdosta is home to Moody Air Force Base.
As a retired military veteran Ambrose column reminds me columnists, mayors, governors and presidents that history records as being on the wrong side of history yesterday. And today the man they fought and condemned (Rev. Martin L. King Jr.,) has the tallest monument erected in his honor for that period.
Not even during slavery, segregation, Jim Crow and classifying Blacks as three fifths of a human being did Blacks and White Right People condemn the other 43 White Presidents to this extent. Therefore will disrespecting the Executive Commander-In-Chief of our military personnel stationed at Moody Air Force Base by this columnist and other local elected officials contribute to closing Moody Air Force Base when the next Base closing comes around?
Our current Executive Commander-In-Chief orders our troops into combat on foreign battlefields to face death. While their children attending Valdosta City School System were not permitted to watch their parents Executive Commander-In-Chief give a speech on live television. Yet these same children will be asked to volunteer and put their life on the line for their country once they become 18 years of age.
It is obvious that Times Columnist Ambrose, Star Parker and other local radio hosts have set a bad precedence in this military town for all future American presidents. As a military veteran I did not serve any political party or religious denomination. I served to protect all American citizens and our allies in time of war and in time of peace.
Moreover respecting our Executive Commander-In-Chief (President Barack Obama) is a time-honored tradition that has made our nation great and should not be taken lightly under any circumstances. God bless the greatness of our beloved nation!
