Dem. Rep: Roy Moore Will 'Harken Us Back to the Days of Segregation'

Alabama Democratic Representative Terri Sewell appeared on ABC News’ “This Week” to discuss the senatorial special election between GOP candidate Roy Moore and Democratic candidate Doug Jones. Rep. Sewell warned voters that Roy Moore will take the state “back to the days of segregation.”

"We who have been proud Alabamians know that we have been trying to overcome our painful past, and this candidate, Roy Moore, will only take us backwards and harken us back to the days of segregation,” Sewell said.

She also added that the people of Alabama “deserve a senator whose character and integrity won’t be in question” adding “there’s no reason to doubt” Moore’s sexual harassment accusers. 

.@RepTerriSewell to @ThisWeekABC: “If Roy Moore goes to Washington, we will always be questioning his character.” https://t.co/r8pECECbmF #ThisWeek pic.twitter.com/ZnHvT33HnH— ABC News Politics (@ABCPolitics) December 10, 2017

It is worth noting similar racial rhetoric regarding a GOP politician was also deployed by Vice President Joe Biden in 2012, when he told a crowd of largely African-American American voters that GOP Presidential candidate Mitt Romney wanted to "put them all back in chains." 

The special election is slated for this Tuesday, December 12th.

Will they be wearing black sheets and robes, and calling non-blacks “boy”?

Just an observation, the Dem. Rep’s face looks a lot like Little Richard’s face. Imagine different hair, and.......

I’m pretty sure she’s using “harken” incorrectly.

That's racist! How dare you say that a person of color might be misusing the language that they have appropriated. Next, you'll tell me this guy isn't using it correctly:

And sadly, that’s true. The black families have been destroyed.

“The days of segregation” were the days when Roy Moore was a Democrat like you. You just never have changed. He did.

I always linked that directly to the ‘Great Society’ invoked by LBJ

He (rightfully so) basically proclaimed that ‘majority’ America would not sit by and let them ‘dudes’ sit up in there while the women were drawing ‘public money’.

The Movie ‘Cinderella Liberty’(1973) hit that subject when the broke sailor was living with his girlfriend who was on Public Assistance (both White) and the ‘Welfare Lady’ said if HE had ‘assumed the role’ SHE would be removed from the rolls - so either throw him out or get thrown off.

Easy decision when the man is BROKE and the Welfare Lady oversees the issuance of a check.

So in effect the Great Society succeeded in doing what Slavery, Poverty, 2 World Wars & a ‘Police Action’ couldn’t- it broke up the basic Black Family along with the really lower income White Family.

LBJ - The ‘GIFT’ that keeps ‘GIVING’.

Do any of these nitwits know the definition of segregation?

Sounds like there's now an effort to redefine that word, just as they did with "racism", to an offense that only white people can commit. When blacks do the same thing, it is called something else and smiled upon.

I was hoping to find the clip from Road to Rio of Groucho Marx on a white horse pointing his sword forward and shouting ‘CHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGE!’ at the head of a bizarre cavalry brigade, but it didn’t show up. If anyone can find it, please give me the link.

Yeah exactly. They’re always dividing people based on race, gender, and sexual orientation.

Bham is a murder capital top 10 every year. It is people of her race that makes it so, as it does in Chicago, home of Burrack Obammy.

Yeah well john lewis has a pair down here in Alabama that are just as bad as him.

alvin holmes, and hank sanders. Those two are such race mongering poverty pimps that they see racists lurking behind every blade of grass and shadow.
