Few things are as repulsive as Black conservatives trying to advance the Republican agenda by mischaracterizing the Civil Rights Movement or distorting history.

I know what he means, like when that repulsican Algore Sr. got up and filibustered the Civil Rights amendments of 1965, and when that racist republican who is still in the senate, Robert Byrd did the same. Hell he was even a member of the KLAN! And all those republican governors in the south used the police and fire dept. to disenfranchise all those black voters.... hideous! It was the kind hearted democrats who helped set up the NAACP, and now the GOP has turned them into a racist organization. All these so-called "house blacks" just don't know the true history of this nation. {/BIZARRO-WORLD}

This is of a piece with other pieces within the black press. Establishment black leaders have latched themselves onto the patronage bandwagon of the Democratic Party. Given that fact, they have to work within the apparatus of that party. That means the Clintons.

Rice upsets that applecart. Should she run and should she win, their entire arrangement collapses like the house of cards that it is.
