ask ourselves ALWAYS in the course of American History.......who is B'rer Rabbit.....and who is B'rer Fox....and Who is the Tar Baby.......and the Characters Change....and the Racial Colors change (as to the "tar baby") but he saw an American Parable....that stays with us all this time......

And, just like "Grimms Fairy Tale" for those of a generation who grew up reading them......our history has "strange bedfellows." It does.....:-( The best thing is that many of us can go back to these "writers" and get our "Center Place" renewed.....and it gives us comfort that George Bush and "WE" are just a "BLIP IN TIME."

Yeah......a weird post.....if anyone even bothers to read it........in our "hurried times" here on DU and elsewhere.

Peace!
