I would say this is incredible but the Dems have removed that word frm my dictionary.

If Democrats affect your vocabulary, then you absolutely must get a new screen name! :-)

Let's not complicate the matter further with the addition of facts.

Read this about the results of torn up families and destroyed hopes.

Opened her mouth and proved the underlying prejudice of the liberal left. Such sad people.

The stab at the nonexistent joblessness of the US that the Dems like to claim, just blew right up in this dumb@sses face.

They really ought to stick to the talking points and stay away from dangerous analogies. On second thought, no they shouldn't. It makes them look like the fools they are.

The democrat party is a plantation. Their treatment of blacks for the last 50 years and the ways in which they have torn apart their famiily structure and destroyed their hope is as sinful as slavery was in it's day.

It's worth pointing out that when slavery and later Jim Crow was the order of the day in the South, there was only one political party in the region:

The Democratic Party.

That the Democrat party has managed to position themselves as the party of Civil Rights is one of the great political shell games of all time.

The only 'plantation' around is the welfare/entitlement mentality that so many are afraid to escape from...and we owe it all to Democrats.

Actually, rather than criticizing the unemployment rate, what Karmarck was very lamely trying to say was that blacks on plantations were doing a job, whereas the Congress is not doing ITS job [i.e., giving more 'free' stuff to the children, etc.]

She said "plantations were terrible places where people were forced to do various jobs. But at least they were doing a job."

Perhaps implying that if the weren't working of the plantation, they wouldn't be doing anything at all? Any job is better than none? Why can't the Dims some up with these gems at election time?

"The democrat party is a plantation."

The socialist dream is of a nation-wide plantation. I would agree with that much. Unfortunately, it's getting tougher to talk about the 'democrat plantation' now, since the confused GOP leadership didn't word their criticisms of Hillary with much foresight.

Please see #30 for an explanation of the point that Kamarck, very lamely, was trying to make.

Gore has become a charicature of himself. No one can take him seriously except the other wacknuts that feed on this crap.

I think that he truly has lost all rationality.

I think it's funny that people like him, Nagin, Hildabeast, say things like they do. They are so out of the mainstream that they have no idea how stupid they look to average Americans.

Right. Stating a truth shouldn't be a problem. Slaves did, in fact, work. Who would argue that point?

He seems to come up out of his hole about once a year and scream and yell and then disappear.

Like Groundhog Day :lol:

either way, it doesn't work. I can't be the only one that sees another meaning there. She may not have meant it that way, but it still sounds that way.

either way-bad
