DCCC Chair Steve Israel: Not All, but Most Republicans Are Racists
Instablog ^ | 4/13/2014 | DAN RIEHL

Posted on 04/13/2014 5:11:45 PM PDT by markomalley

On Sunday's "State of the Union," CNN's Candy Crowley asked DCCC Chairman Rep. Steve Israel if he thought his Republican colleagues are racist.

Israel responded, "Not all of them, no. Of course not. But to a significant extent, the Republican base does have elements that are animated by racism."

Steve Israel’s a white liberal elite who’s playing the race card to protect the blacks Biden’s keeping out of chains.

If I was black I’d find this insulting... but then again blacks believe most of the empty promises liberals feed them year after year after year...

Steve Israel is a white liberal elite who feeds off the fear of black democrats. If blacks weren’t kept angry they might stop propping up white liberal elites....

RE :”... but then again blacks believe most of the empty promises liberals feed them year after year after year...”

I caught a few minutes of Rush replay this weekend and as he explained its not that they believe that Dems will deliver, its that they believe that Dems esp Obama have good intentions and wish them well, unlike GOP who they believe only care for rich white guys.

Obama says he is against voter ID and cutting back early voting hours that they see are to stop them from voting.

GOP says they are against raising taxes on billionaires to fund food stamps.

Its the compassion game.

With Passover and its story of the Exodus of the people of Israel from Egypt beginning tonight, I suggest that Steve ISRAEL is an inappropriate name for a man who wants to keep slaves under his and his buddies’ control. Steve Pharaoh or Steve Legree are two names that would better fit him. Anyone have other suggestions?

The Huffy Post article headline about Israel’s remarks reads thus: “Top Democrat: ‘Not All’ Republicans Are Racist” . . . in a sort of “yes, we can convert them” vibe.

Steve Marx would be another. Another baby-killing, gun-grabbing, “marriage”-equalizing, “healthcare”-nationalizing, Occupy-supporting New York überlib. (He did vote for authorization of military force against Iraq though.)

Let’s not forget about the J Street gala dinner debacle. Certainly “endeared” him to the leaders of the state of Israel in general, with Netanyahu slamming Steve over what was called an “anti-Israel bash” by Michael Goldfarb.

Steve Israel believes that African-Americans and Hispanics are too stupid to figure out how to vote, and need to be exempted from any voting standards.

Steve Israel is the racist.

I’d say to Steve Israel, I know you are but what am I? It’s a smplistic childish response that gets under their thin like nothing else.

Democrats are much more racist.

White rural hick democrats don’t like anyone with dark skin. The majority of “racist Republicans” you can find are actually these people.

Some White liberals don’t like Whites (self-loathing), others don’t like anyone with dark skin.

Black democrats don’t like Whites or any Black who leaves the plantation.

"Just because his performance is horrendous and his integrity non-existent, and I call him on it, means I’m observant."

Quotes from Michelle O, really need to put it in quotation marks.

LOL.

Gee, Steve Israel’s constituents are so lucky——having a Congressman w/ supernatural powers. Israel can actually look into men’s minds and see things that no one else can.

Maybe Israel could get a cable reality show.....like “Long Island Medium.”

Israel could be billed as a “Medium Democrat.”
