Liberal racial hysteria alert

Someone named Jack Hook sent a long article via e-mail which begins like this:

Prophecy: A New American President

Greetings,

The coming together of the “melting pot” of humanity known as the United States of America is an astonishing thing to behold. It is breathtaking. What happened on November 4th is truly an historical event that will profoundly affect all of the nations. Only those with a heart of steel and a mind that relishes in America’s enslavement of black people will not be thankful that the oppression and injustices done to black-skinned people is finally over as the first black American is elected to the Presidency. Things will never be the same in this country, even though many who hate Obama for any reason will try to fan the flames with racist or condemning comments.

I wrote back to him:

You write:

Only those with a heart of steel and a mind that relishes in America’s enslavement of black people will not be thankful that the oppression and injustices done to black-skinned people is finally over as the first black American is elected to the Presidency.

Are you saying that until November 3, 2008, black people were being oppressed and treated unjustly in America, but that since November 4, 2008, they are no longer being oppressed and treated unjustly in America?

We’ll see if Mr. Hook can muster a reply.

Still waiting…
