Spike Lee, always a mediocre film maker, and lately a less than mediocre film maker, belongs to those loudmouths always trying to rewrite black history. Jesus was black, blacks invented the airplane, Jews sre responsible for black misery etc. It’s rather sad that the black community, which has suffered much from racism in the past must now rely on the likes of the Jacksons,Wrights,Sharptons and himself to be their representatives on the world stage. Sadly they have chosen the clowns to do the job.

Race will cease to be a topic of discussion when the left and the blacks decide to let it go. Also, when it no longer grants a right to special treatment.

I have to wonder if Lee has even seen the Eastwood films he’s criticizing. As a previous post points out, one focused on a particular group of soldiers, none of whom was African-American, historically; the other film focused on the Japanese, with the American troops far in the background — in effect, for the movie’s purposes, the antagonists. It doesn’t make a lot of sense.

Spike Lee is just another race hustling brother who makes his living off of blacks. The guy should be mowing Clint’s lawn (no bigotry intended). All he has to do is whine about inequality in movies in order to get some publicity and milk a few bucks from the brothers. He’s got to be the biggest race hustler idiot on the planet. Next up on his agenda…Why didn’t John Wayne have more blacks in his films?

[...] Roger Simon opines regarding the basis behind the filmmaker’s current spat with fellow director/actor Clint Eastwood, and I happen to be in agreement. Like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, time has been passing Spike Lee by. His worldview comes from another era and he has never really sought to revise it, to open his eyes. Proof of that is that for more than a decade Spike has barely made a film any of us can remember. Compare that to Eastwood, who, although some twenty-seven years Lee’s senior, is at the top of his career, having scored big in 2003-2004 with Mystic River and Million Dollar Baby. [...]

His latest fiction film “Inside Man” posited a world where an elderly American banker, who made his money by swindling Jews during WW2; kept the proof of his treachery in his bank vault. The bank is located in Lower Manhattan
‘ practically near Ground Zero. He employs a fixer, who’s first transaction at the outset of the film, is to buy a condo for Osama’s nephew.

I say intentional fiction, because his Katrina diatribe, that included the “they blew up the levees” insinuation was labeled as a documentary; just like Moore, Spurlock, et al.
