Claude Allen's life sentence

[John Jorsett]

Three references to Allen's being black in the span of four paragraphs, and dweebs like this accuse Republicans of being the race-conscious party? These guys see nothing but race.

[NautiNurse]

You've gotta read this...

[ClearCase_guy]

What's clear is that the Bush circle and the Christian base that praised Allen the loudest are nowhere to be heard now.

Guess she hasn't seen Ann Coulter's piece on Allen.

And, has he been convicted already? This sweet thing doesn't seem to have any doubts about his guilt. Is that because of who he is? I mean, you look at a man like this -- if you know what I mean -- and you hear he's been accused of a crime, then you just naturally say "He's guilty! Those people are always committing crimes!" Because -- you know what I'm talking about here -- he's Republican.

I found the tone of this article so obnoxious, I couldn't get 1/2 way thru it.

[ncountylee]

What a vile article.

[standingfirm]

What a disgusting article. The animosity in this guy's tone is appalling.

The left just can't let go of the color issue. Whether or not Claude Allen was black or not has nothing to do with what he is accused of.

Erin Aubrey Kaplan sounds like a typical liberal racist to me.

[GodBlessRonaldReagan]

Our local free press, originally the Richmond Afro-American, is all over this story - banner headline at the top of Page 1, subtitle "GOP darling nabbed". Of course, if he was a lib, there would be nary a peep from them. *sigh*

I dream of a day when black Republicans get as much respect as black Dems from the Dems. Why are they always the ones who mention what race someone is? Who cares? What has that got to do with the story?

[boop]

Yep, according to this authorette only "good" black people are liberals, the rest are unappreciative house (negroes).

[tcrlaf]

He's a black REPUBLICAN, which means it's OK for the media to be racist, and use the B-word.....

[Republican Red]

Of course, if he was a lib, there would be nary a peep from them. *sigh*

Does the name Sandy Berger remind anyone of anything?

[American Quilter]

Her delight in a black conservative being brought down is palpable. Bet you anything she believes she's objective.

[Republican Red]

BTW,

I read that Claude Allen has an evil twin. Seriously, Allen has a twin brother who has always been in trouble with the law and Clause has always bailed him out of the trouble. Some theories floating out there are that he is taking the fall for his brother. Who know. Sad story any which way.

[American Quilter]

Guess she hasn't seen Ann Coulter's piece on Allen.

Yes, that was a great column.

[La Enchiladita]

Erin Aubrey Kaplan sounds like a typical liberal racist to me.

Former columnist (film reviewer?) for the L.A. Weekly, a leftist porn rag available at all the lib hangouts. Always "reviewed" films on a race (pro-black) basis. Very bitter, probably into "reparations now" and all that crapola.

[BenLurkin]

"so many Republicans are being handcuffed these days for scams of one kind or another that it's hard to keep the names and charges straight"

Such as?

I dream of a day when black Republicans get as much respect as black Dems from the Dems.

Actually, I think that they do get as much (or as little depending on how you look at it).

[NautiNurse]

I read that Claude Allen has an evil twin.

Heard that too. Where is it in print?
