Lemme s'plain ... heh. I *KNEW* Dave Dinking through Percy Sutton, a CONSUMMATE political WHORE. I was involved as a contractor in rebuilding the APOLLO and WRVR many years ago and as a WHITE BOY, knew the respect my talents offered. Dave was Percy's "boy" and Dave's problem was the same as mine. COLOR BLIND. Those who grew up (like myself) in "disadvantaged areas" didn't KNOW that knee-grows and whites were SUPPOSED to hate. We all played together as kids and never quite GOT that qwap. We was all BUDDIES. When *I* grew up, the word "nigger" (recently buried) meant "nose candy" (and I don't mean "coke") and that's as deep as it ever got.DAVE was as honest as the day was long. I *KNEW* Dave Dinkins, and I *worked* for him. He was like Jimmy Carter in a way, TOO honest and sincere for his own good. He was NOT a politician. PERCY was, and PERCY was a slut. NOT Dave tho' ... Dave GENUINELY believed in all he did and NEVER lost his soul in doing things. And in the end, Dave did WONDERFULLY GOOD things ... but he gfot futtbucked by the press over "Crown Heights" which he just couldn't fathom as to the stupidity that went on there - another testimony to his innocence if not political "savvy" ... Once again, I reiterate a point I've made TOO many times ... those who CAN govern are phucked ... those who are bastards DO ... Dinkins got SHAFTED ... over, and over, and OVER again. I'm sorry ... I KNEW Dave. I WORKED for Dave ... and I'm PROUD to have KNOWN the man ... and he got a RAW deal. :( Ghouliani got the CREDIT for all Dave did ... and more's the pity. :( |
