Rev Al: Hunger Strike For Loretta Lynch? Really!

First of all let me just say that I love and respect you for all of the work that you've done and that you are doing through your National Action Network in the interest of Truth, Justice and Equality for all people in this country and on this planet.

Is spite of your many critics on the Right, and sadly far too many on the left; I think that the work that you do is Honest, Valuable and Required.

And for the most part, I am usually aligned with your thinking.

However, staging a Hunger Strike to get an up or down vote from Mitch Mcconnell and his Racists Cronies in the House on Loretta Lynch's Confirmation as Attorney General of the United State seems like a waste of time and effort, and a shame for the meals that are currently being missed.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Hunger, Sickness, Poverty and the Devastation of Average American Citizens what Republicans thrive on-In favor of protecting Rich, Powerful and Well Connected Individuals and Corporations?

I may very well be wrong, but starving yourselves to motivate Republicans to do anything seems to be Counter Intuitive and Counter Productive.

When you want to move Hateful, Greedy and Sneaky People, (like Republicans and others who wear the Conservative Label-You have to do things that hurt them-not things that hurt you.

Seems to be that you are only giving them the Human Conditions that they love and thrive on.

How is this going to help bring about a vote on the Confirmation of Loretta Lynch, (whom they HATE for the same reasons they Hate President Obama, Susan Rice, Eric Holder and the other Dark Skinned Members of this Administration)?

One problem that I've noticed that Liberals have is that they let their Idealism Cloud their Perceptions of Reality.

If you want to get people like the people who reside in this Republican Led Congress to do what you want them to do-You have to Creatively think of ways to hurt them and hurt them bad.

And Reverend Al, I am not suggesting Violence, because I know how you feel about that, and I agree with you. We should avoid violence whenever and where ever we can as soldiers for the War against those who are against Truth, Justice and Equality for all people in this country and on this planet

That's why I used the word "Creative" above.

However, hurting one's self to sway people who like to see people hurt, seems like a reward for Republican's Bad Behavior in response to Black People Managing the Top Levels of Government and doing it as well as anyone else has done and could do.

So I say to you and those who are protesting with you: "Go eat a meal".

"Enjoy life".

And once yawl are full and satisfied, put your heads together and come up with a plan to hurt the people who are hurting people because of their Skin Color, their Names, Sexual Orientation or because of the Money, Power and Influence that they Don't Have.

Enjoy Dinner Tonight Folks!
