Congratulations! to
MrScorpio, winner of the seventh place in this year’s Top Dummies.
Now, I thought for sure MrScorpio, recently re-christened “Lamond X,†had been a frequent winner in these contests, given that he’s been around a very long time; surely he’s been on every single ballot the past ten elections.
But much to my surprise, no.
He’s been on every ballot, but only ever won
#14 Top DUmmie of 2005
#03 Top DUmmie of 2012
#17 Top DUmmie of 2013
One wonders why this is, as Lamond X is certainly no wallflower, making only cameo appearances here in the DUmpster.
I suppose one need only to look at the demographics of those who vote in the Top DUmmies elections, a constituency that’s predominately white.
So that’s it; MrScorpio does so miserably because we’re “all†racists, and won't vote for black people.

Lamond X is 53 years old, and currently lives in or around Detroit, his occupation being only God knows what, and his recreation playing a disc-jockey.
Myself being a fair and impartial semi-professional observer of the primitives, it needs pointed out that Lamond X honorably served this country in the military, and it looks as if he put in twenty years of that.
So we all thank MrScorpio for his service, and are confident that if this Great Republic is in peril, and all men summoned to do their duty, Lamond X will be one of the first to answer the clarion call.
Lamond X is also enthusiastic about his background; the history of all those who came before him, giving him life. He’s done remarkable work on his genealogy, showing that he comes from a long line of good, decent, modest, hardworking people, many of whom have undoubtedly found more riches and ease, more love and compassion, in a Time and Place not this.
They were very pleasant-looking, aesthetic people; one supposes Lamond X is an anomaly, a mutant.
His appellation as resembling a pineapple might, or might not, be an accurate description; years ago, it was based upon a self-posted photograph of himself, in which he resembled nothing more than a pineapple-shaped head sitting atop a larger pineapple.
Who knows; a camera rarely lies, but sometimes it does.

What has always been most interesting about Lamond X is his insistence upon being the “authenticator†of “black,†at least on Skins’s island. As expected, if one’s of African derivation and a Democrat, he’s a “real†black, and if one’s of African derivation but a Republican, he’s a phony.
This is peculiarly odd, given that MrScorpio has been one of the biggest propagandists for the current occupant of the White House. His skin’s the color of black, and he’s a Democrat, so therefore he’s “real.â€
Yeah, right; as most already know, Barack Obama is half African-derived, half European-derived; half black, half white.
His skin’s just very dark; that’s all. In case one doesn’t know this, ethnic Ethiopians, usually blacker than midnight, are scientifically classified as “Caucasian,†given their features more distinctive than just their skin.

And one must consider other things; Lamond X appears to think that he and Barack Obama have a great deal in common, that they’re “brothers.â€
Uh, no.
Lamond X’s antecedents were from western Africa, forcibly brought to this hemisphere under the most abominable circumstances--chieftains of some African tribes capturing members of other African tribes, marching them to the coast, where they were sold to Europeans, who conveyed them over the seas.
Where they of course lived in the most deplorable of conditions.
A sorry situation which
somewhat still exists today, the plantation having been replaced by the ghetto, and the southern planters having been replaced by northern Democrats.
Half of Barack Obama’s ancestors were from eastern Africa, people who’d never been forcibly brought here, treated as chattel rather than human beings with Immortal Souls.
In fact, they flourished and prospered selling other Africans into servitude to the Arabs of southern Asia (and to a very constricted degree, despite the colonizing white man’s most vigorous attempts to stamp out slavery, still do). They were never slaves in this country, and there being so few of them here, they never really shared in the black experience in America.

There’s no doubt that Lamond X has fully experienced what it’s like, being black in America; there’s far more doubt than certainty, that Barack Obama ever had any similar experience.
Barack Obama and franksolich have much more in common, than Barack Obama and MrScorpio, the only difference in the former being the shade of our skin. Which is the
only similarity between the latter.
As an “authenticator†of “blackness,†Lamond X is a dud.
