Where on earth did they ever get this insane idea?

“Every law that has anything to do with leveling the playing field for blacks, they are against it,” he said.

That's because every one of those laws that claims to "level the playing field", actually punishes the innocent in violation of Scripture... and I'm sure that deep down he knows this, however desperately he tries to deny it to himself.

I've been hired by blacks and have been able to hire blacks. Black advancement has been very good (profitable) to me. I remain right wing. The right is about real black advancement. We are not about giving handouts; we are about giving a hand.

I agree that the second part of this idea probably doesn't have much merit, but there are some members of the right who do seem to spread the seeds of hate and sound somewhat like liberals.
