You know when I surf websites and read negative comments about President Obama I often wonder don’t these folks realize we see their motivations – for the most part it ain’t against his policies. There are those who favorite retort when called out is “ You are using the race card.” Well this is where it gets prickly, the word racism has been so diluted by the media and ignorant folks over the decades that one assumes that people of color actually have the here within all to be bonofide racist.
I am here to tell you that they do not. Racism is primarily the ability to discriminate against others because you feel that they are inferior based upon the hue of their skin. Since the dawning of man racists have always been the ruling classes. The individuals who control the institutions of society such as judiciary are members of the ruling classes which bring me to the point of this post. A U S Federal judge,
Richard Cebull appointed by the lackluster
Geroge W. Bush administration forwarded a racist and derogatory email which inferred that President Obama’s mother had sex with animals among other things.
“A little boy said to his mother; ‘Mommy, how come I’m black and you’re white?’” the e-mail joke reads. “His mother replied, ‘Don’t even go there Barack! From what I can remember about that party, you’re lucky you don’t bark!’”
This judge is the lead federal judge in the Montana region and entrusted with handing down judgments over the populace – although primarily white there is some pepper in the salt in that region too. When caught and confronted the judge apologized (

This was his motivation for forwarding the email. Well, in my opinion the president should accept the judges apology if it is accompanied by a resignation.
Listen, I am no learned scholar of law, nor do I believe in redemption or salvation – Jesus is the only one in my opinion trustworthy enough to hand down such decrees – I am a mere mortal and I do not feel safe with this man seated on a bench anywhere in this great republic. He is a racists he is in a powerful position.
To reiterate people of ethnicity and varying colors can be bigot or prejudiced but seldom if ever racist. Oh they might be called racist and some might think that they are because they for example own a large business and perhaps others in politics but believe me their powers are limited to those small spheres. True racists affect the lives of those they believe to be inferior.
Richard Cebull is one of those as is mostly all Teabaggers that I have seen at rallies. People we must stand against this guy and the Tea Party extremist be they white or confused minorities with self-loathing syndrome. We must because they are cloaked in positions within our society which affect our lives and those of our children; they are doctors, insurance agents, bankers, policemen, politicians and judges.
Richard Cebull has shown his true colors and ought not be given public trust. L et's demand that this judge stand down today not tomorrow.
