If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)
Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.
Their leadership really, really, really sucks.
Well,,,,,let me mark this date down on my calendar...because this is definitely a switch from the usual rank and file.
Saw Andrew Young this morning support Dr. Rice!
Perhaps the Democrats didn't think this one through. One could honestly conclude that racism is involved when white Democrats (including a former recuiter for the KKK) attack an accomplished black woman of unquestionable competence and integrity.
Byrd opposed Marshall and Thomas. Funny I didn't hear that on ABC, CBS, NBC or CNN.
I saw that clip from Andrew Young, glad he spoke out, it was right on the mark.
LOL to the nth degree! Democrats and stupidity go together like peanut butter and jelly! LOL
Just once, I would like to see this on the networks. Well, I guess I won't because I don't watch them.
Carol mostly fraud was on H&C last night supporting Condi.
Anti-Americanism can be easily added to Boxer/Byrd et al along with partison racism. This is pretty disgusting to watch unfold. They're treating Dr. Rice like she just fell out of a tree stealing apples!
It would have been for the democrats to let Dr. Rice sail on through. But, thank the Lord, there aren't too many wise democrats. It is embarrassingly obvious to everyone that Boxer & Company's objections to Dr. Rice are manufactured for The Cause. No sane person is buying what they are selling, but it is oddly fascinating to watch them chew on their own harden bile of a sales pitch.
Not to mention that it will be further education in a possible presidential bid.
Condoleeza Rice may well be the next Margaret Thatcher of U.S. politics.
Here's to the good Doctor!
Evidently the congressional black caucus, who bowed at the feet of slick willie and his secretary of state, Mad Maddie the Cleaning Lady, think it's perfect okay to insult and berate Dr. Rice for all the world to see.
Hey there Mr. Young, where the hell ya been all these years! What, this is the first time you've noticed something like this in American politics? Go see an "eye doctor."
And, ya think!
Better late than never I suppose...
And heck, if you happen to read this Mr. Young, perhaps you can point out for us all of the black conservatives that that the NAACP and the Dims have supported through all of these years! I mean for the NAACP it's all about supporting black ("colored") people without political bias, right! Good luck...
Young also suggested that the nation is not well served by having Democrats chip away at Dr. Rice's integrity just as she is about to take her place on the world stage.
So true. But this is what Democrats have done throughout the war in Iraq, so is anyone surprised?
Actually, I think the Democrats are grandstanding and vying for the best clip to help their own careers. They saw how the major media took Boxer's attack on Rice, replaying it constantly (to the dismay of other questioners), so they are competing for that same attention.
Why don't the media replay what Warner said, again and again?
I agree with those above who say that anyone with a brain can see how low the Democrats have sunk. Unfortunately, much of the electorate is programmed by the MSM and don't think critically as much as they should. Thus we do need strong Republican spokemen to denounce the cruel games of the Democrats. Republicans have played the gentleman's role for too long. Time to be quick-witted as well as polite, cutting through the Democratic games and lies.
The Democratic Party---the party of:
Thomas Jefferson (a slaveholder who impregnated his slaves)
Andrew Jackson (A bigamist and a murderer)
the trail of tears (racism towards Indians)
the Confederacy and war between the states
the Klu Klux Klan (KKK)and "Dixiecrats"
the income tax & Federal Reserve System (Jekyl Island)
WWI, WWII, Korean and Vietnam wars
the "war on poverty' that has wasted trillions of dollars, so far...and I could go on for days....
I am, and have been for quite a while, that this is the tack that conservatives should take, if they want to win the black vote, or more importantly save black society from total destruction. At every chance, we should equate the way the Dems treat the blacks to the old slave system. Additionally, every time they send the attack dogs, like Jackson, Sharpton and Lee out, we should point out that they are nothing more than house negros for the Democrat party.
It's using blunt force, and not very eloquent. It is the truth, though. We are going on almost 4 generations of blacks that have been raised looking to the Dems for hand outs. The black family has been destroyed, replaced with the nanny state. What is it, almost 70% of black children are born out of wedlock. Blacks commit a disproportionate amount of crime in urban areas. Black youths hold drug dealers and thugs as role models, elevating then to pop star status. All of these things spill over into other areas of society, causing problems across the board. It's high time that conservatives fix the problem that the Dem plantation system as created.
I think it's best to be a bit quite, the Democrats are doing just a fine job of showing who they are and what they represent. Moreover, the bottom line is she will be confirmed.
