And Gays, Blacks, and Democrats have never said anything rancourous about Republicans?

Is this Crystal Wright, or Krystal Ball?

Crystal needs to do a little rethinking. Or at least some thinking.

FROM THE ARTICLE: Blacks who choose to have abortions do so willingly. Blacks like Emmett Till who were tortured, lynched and murdered by the Ku Klux Klan had no say in their deaths.

The aborted blacks had no more choice than Till. Duh.

Uh...you're comparing apples and oranges there, slick. Emmitt Till is the baby in the first scenario.

Jackson assailed Democrats for being “anti-God” and said Planned Parenthood “has been far, far more lethal to black lives than the KKK ever was.” Blacks who choose to have abortions do so willingly. Blacks like Emmett Till who were tortured, lynched and murdered by the Ku Klux Klan had no say in their deaths.

Confidential to Ms Wright, you are looking at the wrong end of this. Emmett Till may have had no say in his death but neither did the Black baby. That's the point.

Interesting to watch people run away as fast as they can at the slightest hint of discomfort.

I’m not saying Jackson shouldn’t be wise in his public comments, but if telling the truth feels like hell, then I say Jackson ought to give them hell.

Uhhhh, the black babies who are the victims of abortion don't "do so willingly" and suffer a fate pretty much the same as Emmett Till. This author isn't bright at all and I wonder how they ever got published by TownHall.

I have no confidence in the VA GOP, but I would vote for all three nominees were I a Virginian.

The biggest roadblock to his election will be the Dims candidate, a likable IT Indian guy who worked for Kaine and Obama. I think he will get more votes than McCaullif.

Jackson has made incendiary remarks in the past about gays, blacks and Democrats and yet refuses to retract anything he has said.

....she says that like it's a bad thang.........

Crystal Wrong apparently can't handle the truth.

Jackson assailed Democrats for being “anti-God”

Truth. I'm sure it hurts, but it's true; the demonicRATs proved it at last year's national convention.

Planned Parenthood “has been far, far more lethal to black lives than the KKK ever was.”

Again, true. Planned Barrenhood in fact specifically targets black babies for extermination.

Blacks who choose to have abortions do so willingly.

Yes, many black women are complicit in the genocide of black babies.

Blacks like Emmett Till who were tortured, lynched and murdered by the Ku Klux Klan had no say in their deaths.

Neither do black babies murdered by the hundreds of thousands in America's abortuaries annually.

There is no comparison between the two

Yes, there is, and Planned Barrenhood is worse than the KKK.

d I don’t understand how a black Republican like Jackson could make such a comment.

Simple. He can handle the truth. You can't. Sucks to be you.

Slavery and the Civil Rights movement was one of the worst times in American history.

Yet both pale in comparison to the ongoing genocidal abortion regime.

Blacks tune out conservatives like Jackson as loony.

Blacks, or anyone else, who does so are idiots.

This “firebrand” won’t help the Republican ticket of Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli for Governor and Mark Obenshain for Attorney General in a state that has become more purple than red and in which the race for governor remains rancorous and tight.

It is EXACTLY this type of thinking that has turned Virginia into a blue state. Once we learn this pertinent political fact and stop nominating D-lites as GOP candidates, then we won't ever have to worry about the Chuck Robbs, Tim Kaines, and Mark Warners of the world wreaking their havoc on the Commonwealth again.

If you ask me, Jackson should be the nominee for Governor and Cuccinelli the candidate for Lt. Governor. Where is John Dalton when you need him?

It’s thinking like this that gives us ‘moderate’ (i.e. RINOS, squishes) Repub candidates requiring us to hold our noses in order to vote for them.

From the American Thinker:

The Virginia GOP snubbed the unwelcome advice of Karl Rove urging Republicans across the country to nominate uninspiring moderates without an agenda.

The Republican Party of Virginia (RPV) will run for November:

Current Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli for Governor

Bishop E.W. Jackson for Lieutenant Governor, and

Virginia State Senator Mark Obenshain for Attorney General.

The nomination of African-American, enthusiastically and loudly Christian Bishop E.W. Jackson for lieutenant governor was the biggest surprise. Jackson offers the most intriguing dynamics heading into the 2013 general election. Jackson will not only stir up the Virginia elections but may also challenge Barack Obama nationally. However, Obama shockingly won Virginia in 2012, presumably with Democrats’ new, high-tech voter turn-out systems that may once again be a factor in Virginia in 2013.

Ken Cuccinelli, as a national conservative hero, was unopposed for governor. Current Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling dropped out, possibly contemplating running as an Independent in the mold of Florida’s Charlie Crist in 2010, who realized he could not win against Marco Rubio in the Florida primary. It is widely perceived that Bill Bolling could not compete against Ken Cuccinelli because the nomination was by convention.

For attorney general, Mark Obenshain defeated Rob Bell on the first ballot. Obenshain was elected to the senate of Virginia in 2003, where he quickly became a standard-bearer for conservative policies and a leader on property rights, school choice, family values, and government reform. For twenty-five years Mark practiced law in Harrisonburg and in Central Virginia.

WHAT’s NOT TO LIKE FOR A CONSERVATIVE?

I’ll say this again for thousandth time, GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney lost the 2012 election for many reasons but one was Romney’s “willful neglect “of minority voters. Republicans need to lean in to more Americans with compelling candidates.

What kind of crap is this???!!

During a recent visit to a Virginia women’s Republican club, a few white conservatives mentioned Jackson to me, assuming I would like him because he’s a black conservative like me. I didn’t know who Jackson was. But what I find ironic is the same Republicans blasting black liberals for only voting for Obama because he’s black expect me to do the same with Jackson. Candidates matter and I don’t vote on race.

Honey, you ain't no "black conservative."

Lemme guess, Crystal Wright is a pseudonym for Karl Rove.
