THE ROBERT W. WHITAKER ARCHIVE

I was talking about one of the Ruling Myths of our age: The Great Minority Uprising. Another Ruling Myth is Asblute Jewish Loyalty to Jews, with its faithful companion, how whites are the only people who betray each other.

I have talked about the Myth of The Greatest Generation.

I have taked aout the Cowboy Myth, the tough guys who are not just talking, but who will be fighting When The Time Comes.

These are not just debunking, these are CRITICAL. These are very practical, because ALL discussion on our side outside this Blog seems to take these myths as reality. The small number of serious people seem to be getting into our seminar here.

Meanwhile I sit here watching impossible things happen all around us and nobody else SEES them.

When I was a boy, I lived inthe Solid South. There had not been a single Republican even inthe State House of Representatives since 1895. The idea of a Republican South was beyond Mars. In the 1980's, science fiction novels, including The MOte in God's Eye, had the Soviet Empire extending into the infinite future.

Whites were 80-90% of the American population in 1970. Minorities voted solidly Democratic, and minorities vote just as solidly Democratic today. Back then both Houses of Congress were solidly Demoratic, and would be for the foreseeable future.

So in 1970, if you had told anybody the present racial breakdownof America, they would assume the Republicans would be gone. But Republicans control both Houses and the presidency. Democrats are shouting that the Republican Party is Whitey's Party. Statistics show they are dead right.

All this is a stready shaking of the political earth, but everybody agrees not to notice. They used to say that Republicans had "a gender gap" because women voted overwhelmingly Democratic. No one dared to point out that the votes were almost dead even, so the Democrats must have a gender gap among males. Today nobody notices the huge shift of whites into the Republican Party.

Our side ratifies this myth by shouting that none of this means anything. It's just avoting pattern. It ain't the Collapse or the Minority Uprising they are waiting for.

And if everything stopped right here, theymight be right. But I have not seen anything stop or slow down.

If you refuse to notice anything but an explosion directly under your nose, where you are standing will end up being a scorched hole and nothing else will be seen there.

I don't like cowboys for a very personal reason. Every time I have found a good point at which to stand and speak out, the cowboys have been silent and left me standing there. They would tell me later that The Time Has Not COME to Speak Out.

Whites. like me, who would have spasmed if you ahd called them Republicans in 1960 are now solidly Republicans. No one now can imagine what a deep and painful change it was then. Last-ditch liberal Democrats are now holding their noses and voting Republican. White working-class areas are Republican strongholds now.

Everybpody denies it, but whites ARE uniting before our eyes.

I am the only person who notices.

Desperately erverybody denies there is anything racial in this. Democrats insist that this IS racial.

Respectable denials that this is racial are becoming daily more desperate. Republican voters deny more desperately that there is anything racial in this.

A junior class interrogator would have said ten years ago, "So it's racial."

Republicans, as suaul, are working despereately to snatch defeat from the joys of victory. They managed to remain a minority for the decades I lived through with their imposssible chase after The Negro Vote. The country club whies believedin it, because the otehr country club people told them that Negro Vote was right around the corner.

But that was NOT the reason the Republican leadership kept going after the Negro Vote. None of them believed they would ever GET it. You have to be drooling moron or a country club Republican to take that crap seriously. But the Republcians leadership HAD to chase that myth in order for their colleagues and the media to believe they were enemies of racism.

But there was anohter, very practical reason Republican leaders kept talking about that Negro Vote. The second that moderate approach was rejected, the leadership would change.

I remember vividly when a Gerald Ford, old-time Republican leader wandered around the 1980 Republican convention with the media at his heels. He kept saying, "Where are the people who were at all the other conventions? Where are the people ***I*** worked with? They're all GONE!"

Gone With the Wind.

When the Reagan Administration took office in 1981 and the Senate went Republican for the first time since 1955, the media, without the slightest embarrassment, made an amazing admission: "We don't know ANYBODY in this Administration!"

PBS even had ME do editorials. They REALLY didn't know us! It took them a year to find the sociopaths inside the Administration that they needed to be respectable conservatives.

Now whites are flocking to the Republican Party and Bush is chasing the Hispanic Vote. He has a Vietnam going on in Iraq -- no one hesitates to make the comparison any more.

Does anybody remember the War for Cheap Oil? That was what the left called Iraq early on.

Notice all that Cheap Oil we are getting? If this was a Conspiracy to steal Cheap Oil from the Middle East, it is as successful as the Jewish Conspiracy has been lately. Ernest Hollings in his last Senate speech announced Bush was fighting for Israel.

Anti-semitism is growing explosively on the American left. Anti-semitism is groiwng in Wesern Europe. Anti-semitism is growing in Eastern Europe.

So the people on our side are stacking up sandbags and having fun talking about When the Time Comes.

They are going right along with the Republican strategy of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, they are justing going about it a different way.

The same Republican son of George Bush Senior and heir to Gerald Ford is chasing the minority vote and fighting for Israel exactly when the revolt against both, as shown in the polls, is reaching critical mass.

"The dog goes back to its vomit, the hog returns to its mire, and the burnt fool's bandaged finger goes babbling back to the fire."

Like the good old Republicans moderates, we are doing exactly what we have done for fifty years.

Democrats are in even WORSE shape. In a situation where the white vote is ever more solid, they may win the House. Almost every one of their committee chairmen, the ones who will on television speaking for them, are loud-mouthed, ignorant blacks.

As in New Orleans, their dam that says "It's not about race" is getting thinner and thinner. Pat Buchanan and Craig Roberts, both of whom I have know for decades, are getting away with SAYING so, something that would have been fatal ten years ago.

I keep demanding that we SAY IT"S RACIAL! The cowboys keep telling me I'm a wimp and The Time Has Not Come.

Meanwhile I keep seeing impossible things happening in the real world.

But I am surrounded by people who cannot notice anything that does not explode in their faces.
