I’m not exactly sure why they picked him out, but they did. Maybe it’s because he’s in Philly and some of those others were in smaller markets. I have to admit, I heard Rush’s comment live and absoultely agreed with it and didn’t understand the firestorm.
My statement about McNabb was opinion. What Ferraro said about Obama might not be a hard fact, but it’s pretty darn close. In the South Carolina primary, Obama beat Hillary among black voters 78-19 and other states had similar results. You could argue that Obama’s rhetoric won them over, and there’s certainly a lot of truth to that, but John Edwards, under the guidance of David Axelrod, used almost identical rhetoric four years earlier and finished a distant second in the primaries. There was also a tremendous amount of white guilt.
I’ve read some of your posts and you seem to have an agenda and it doesn’t appear to be conservative. Virtually all of your posts relate to race. Your parsing of Jimmy Carter’s words was disgusting. The man is a sanctimonious fraud who wouldn’t know the truth if it bit him on the ass. Do you really think that Rush Limbaugh is a racist? I don’t think a racist would a black man as his call screener and friend, nor would he have black man to guest host for him several times a year for probably fifteen years now.
I never understood how black bashing is conservative? I am anti-abortion, anti-taxes, anti-gay marriage, anti-affirmative action, etc. etc. So showing the ridiculousness of the widespread black bashing on this site makes me non-conservative? Have you read posts by Mac from Cleveland? Guy views the movie “Birth of a Nation” as and accurate portrayal of black people.
Rush Limbaugh is friends with Charles Murray who writes about his view that me and my children are innately intellectually inferior. How is his friendship with Murray any worse than Obama’s relationship with Wright? If you really look closely and look at things from the point of view of black Americans, it should be easy to understand why most don’t want to be Republican even if they are conservative. Why join a group that openly shows disdain for you? Why join a party that seems to be the party that overt white racists are most inclined to join?
What type of black people are liked here? Pastor James David Manning. You have Freepers cheering him as he expresses the desire for whites to go to black communities and riot. Freepers like the idea of my house being burned down and my family placed in mortal danger? I think that their support of him is disgusting.
