Makes sense. What better way to keep blacks down than by electing a rich, self-made black businessman president of the United States? I appreciate the fact that he’s willing to sit in the back of the bus, and by “the bus” I of course mean “his own limousine.” Such cheery subservience deserves a pat on the head and a treat of some sort. How about we give him the nuclear launch codes?
Cathy Young wrote an article for Reason a few days ago about the left’s endless race-baiting of Cain, but I don’t know what she was thinking in rushing that piece out now. There’s literally months of this to come, and it’ll be ten times as obnoxious if he pulls the upset in Iowa and suddenly looks poised to make a real run at the nomination. The Standard points out a few recent examples — Elijah Cummings, Garofalo’s endless “enlightened” demagoguery on Olbermann’s show, etc — but that’s the tip of the iceberg. Remember this bareknuckle punch thrown last week from Time magazine’s, ahem, “Ideas” section? How about the NYT story on Cain’s use of humor that sought out a professor to comment on his “minstrelsy”? One of the worst offenders, in fact, is responsible for the reedy voice you hear at the very end of this clip unctuously thanking Finney for affirming that the path to racial authenticity lies through liberalism. Within the past three weeks alone Bashir’s accused Cain of betraying the civil-rights movement and more or less hating his own race. And he’ll get worse, I guarantee it. Why shouldn’t he? The lower he sinks, the more the left will appreciate him for it. He’ll be MSNBC’s biggest star in no time.
Head of a wildly-successful business employing lots of people with Cain as their boss?
You know, he’s 100% correct.
I do like Herman Cain because he is a black man who knows his place- in the White House, and not on welfare
His place is the big chair in the big white house.
Okay!
You can always tell an elitist, they insist that YOU are exactly what they are!
OF Dem’s are the first ones to tell you that “you better know your place and stay there”. Typical attitude of “do as I say and not as I do”.
Guess it time to send Cain Sarah’s money...looks like he might go to the head of the class...still think it will be Mittens..I miss Sarah..she will help get the senate and more in the house next year..
“because hes a black man who knows his place”
Yep, his place being exactly what he earned and worked his butt off to achieve.
You liberals problem with him is he didn’t have it handed to him by the methods you believe in so strongly, like affirmative action and quotas.
Wanna really stir up liberals?
Remind them that Obama is a public SERVANT.
A black man who “knows his place.”
Right... as leader of the free world.
I've been sickened by the constant attacks on Cain, and FOX has pushed it to the point where we change the channel when that treacherous RINO Rove is put on. Hannity needs to buy a clue and drop this loser, and FOX needs to change their attitude yesterday or become yet one more discarded, irrelevant cable channel.
Flipping over moss covered rocks to search for imbecile liberal beltway elites for political commentary against the will of the people is going to end badly.
Who knows what they'll sink to next?
If I've got him figured out, he will beat them at their own game and some games of his invention as well.
But it's interesting to observe the lens through which Leftists see things. This kind of invective reveals what they can understand, how they view things, and what they're capable of (and incapable of).
How good a strategist can you be if you don't even understand the layout of the battlefield, or what it is that your adversary is fighting for?
This idea that conservatives are supporting Cain to hide our racism is so stupid that it insults people's intelligence.
And in insulting our intelligence, these people call their own into question.
What? WHAT? I’m bind, so I have to read FR in braille, so up until now, I wasn’t aware that Herman Cain is black. Now I’m going to have to reconsider my support for him. Can’t have a conservative who happens to be black running for the presidential nomination. Why, that would completely destroy the leftist premise that all African-Americans are oppressed by the white devils. Can’t have that, now, can we?
I actually understand the liberal elite saying things like this. Gotta stir up the base and all.
What I do not understand is why more liberals who see this stuff aren’t saying “Hey! Just how stupid do you think I am?”
That’s what I don’t understand. I just cannot comprehend this.
A black conservative is not an authentic black.
Only a black liberal like Obama is an authentic black in the eyes of the Left and the MSM.
VERY good!!
I seldom finish the month with more than a dollar or two left. If I can contribute ten dollars a month then anyone can. This forum is one of a few almost sane harbors in an insane world. Please help pay for our megaphone, put your money where your mouth is.
