...we gotta vote out these clowns who don't love the usa...

so says lloyd marcus about the president's "stimulus" policy in his 'tea party anthem' written for the tea parties.  aside from being a great songwriter, mr. marcus is the president of the 'national association for the advancement of conservative people of color'.  wow, now that's a group that i hope grows by leaps and bounds in the next few weeks, months, and years - i'm certain it's already happening.

it's a great piece of music and you can hear it in part above when he was on fox news just after the first orlando tea party.  you can check out both of his songs (and videos), 'we the people' and the 'american tea party anthem' at his webiste.  through these songs and his fox news interview you begin to get a good sense of what this man is all about.

last week, on 27 august 2009 to be exact, mr. marcus wrote an 'open letter to white liberals' which was published at renew america's website.  it's a well written, extremely sarcastic letter from a black man who's clearly fed up with watching the liberal elite treating he and his brethren as if they are second class citizens.  please follow the renew america link and read it in its entirety - it's worth the few minutes of your time.

his letter starts with:

Thank you very, very much. You see us poor helpless inferior blacks, oh forgive me, I must be politically correct, "African Americans," and you want to help us using your superior intellect. After all, we could not possibly succeed in this racist, homophobic and greedy country without your assistance.

and continues with:

So, now you former hippie boomers are in total control of government, colleges and public schools, still selling your Utopian message of peace and love. Thanks for getting rid of black dads in the home via your welfare programs. I mean, everyone knows dads are cruel chauvinists who beat and molest their kids.

and finishes with:

In closing, you libs, please keep up the good work. With your continued diligence, we minorities and most Americans will not have to work or be responsible for anything. Your president is in the process of confiscating the wealth from those greedy rich white SOBs and redistributing it to us. Right on!

Now, if I can just figure out how to tie my shoes all by myself. But if I can't, I know you libs are there for me. Fighting back tears of overwhelming gratitude, again, I thank you.

did i mention that he is a very proud black man who loves this country and he doesn't want a hand out?  i'm certain he must be racially confused or something else he wouldn't feel this way - much like clarence thomas or condoleeza rice or michael steele or larry elders or star parker and so on and so forth.

i have never been able to understand how denigrating one group of people makes another group of people feel better.  i will never understand how taking from those who are producing - regardless of color - and giving to "those folks who won't get out of their easy chairs..." is supposed to increase the prosperity of all.  the only thing that accomplishes is to decrease the overall wealth and morale of the country as a whole.

i wish i knew this man and were able to thank him personally for being willing to speak out and say the things that he is saying.  i can't help but think that his is precisely the type of voice that congress will seek to silence (along with we conservative bloggers) with rockefeller's 'cyber security' bill.  so i find myself championing him and helping to make his voice heard in the only way i can - by sharing him with my readers.  i hope y'all will do the same...

UPDATE - CHECK OUT THIS POST FROM DI AND MIRADENA.  it's a a great tie-in for what marcus lloyd is saying and an extremely well written article in its own right.

thanks for stopping by, maria and also for the kind words. I hope to see you again!

Hi Heidianne - This was surely a great find. He is priceless! It's so hard to find something to smile about these days, politically. Ya know, I actually commented here yesterday (and it looked like it went through fine) - but I can see that I'm not here!! *Went poof!* So, I will give it another try!! I wanted to make sure to thank you for the hat tip to DI's and my post. If people read it, they might want to come back (here) and take another listen to Lloyd Marcus - just to put those smiles back on their faces that we will probably be taking it away with our post! Nice job, grammy ;)

[heidianne jackson]

he is awesome, miradena - not as great a find as you and di, but still... thank you for the kind words and for sticking with it no matter how difficult and silly it gets...

[Defiant_Infidel]

This is great, Heidianne! How refreshingly... ACCURATE!

With about 50 seconds remaining in the vid clip, Mr. Marcus mentioned that there had been many accusations that the 'Tea Parties' had been all about hate. Then he stated...

"...the American people... are great, decent people, and... I met them on that tour..."

His voice choked, and he blinked rapidly, obviously holding back a emotional swell of heartfelt regard for OUR great Republic. This man exhibits what I see so many honest, patriotic Americans show... TRUE regard and UNDERSTANDING of the sacrifices that were given before the present generation. He KNOWS that this freedom, that we STILL enjoy by the grace of God... is NOT FREE.

The light hearted humor is energizing and so very timely. But it is delivered by a gentleman who clearly BELIEVES what he purveys! And that means a LOT more than just the levity. He really grasps the entire picture.

Nice stuff!

(And thank you kindly for the link and the accolades... always greatly appreciate your endorsements!)

That letter is a gem! A real gem!

I plan to attend the D.C. Tea Party on September 12th. Usually, I don't march in the streets. But this time I feel that I simply must.

[heidianne jackson]

di, we need more like him - especially the "minorities" - ya know?

aow, i'll be at the tea party in l.a. i'm joining up with donald douglas from american power and his long beach group, my inland empire group from earlier and i'm gonna try to convince z and mr. z to join us. i feel we must stand up and do this. we must.

[Z]

He was on TV last night.."I'm not AFRICAN AMERICAN, I"M AMERICAN" God bless him...we are ALL Americans. (oh, except those who hate America, like our........... ya)
Where's the party in LA? If Mr. Z's up for it, I'll be up for it! THAT kind of AMERICA FIRST CROWD is something we'd love to be a party of..if...)
