...Also, those who commented about Hillary Clinton's tearful breakdown missed the commentary that accompanied this calculated attempt at seeming human and personal, which occurred, as Jesse Jackson, Jr. noted, in The Daily News, when her advisors told her that she appear to be more human. "Why didn't she cry for the victims of Katrina?" he added.

The Clintons divide the population into four groups:

1. People who they can use. The Clinton gang uses them to the fullest and throw them away when done.

2. People who oppose them. The Clinton gang tries to destroy them.

3. People who do neither. The Clintons see if they are closer to group 1 or group 2, and then treat them appropriately.

4. The Clintons themselves. They are the only ones that matter.

Only those in group 4 are worthy of the Clintons' tears.

What we have here is who is the authentic VICTIM, the oppression advocates and their oppressors will have to duke it out....this is too rich, LMAO!
The welfare reform bill that has left thousands of women black, white, yellow and brown destitute, prompting Robert Scheer to write in the San Francisco Chronicle, “To his everlasting shame as president, Clinton supported and signed welfare legislation that shredded the federal safety net for the poor from which he personally had benefited.” (Has Ms. Clinton shed a tear for these women, or did she oppose her husband’s endorsement of this legislation?)

long but excellent read, and very well researched. Gloria Steinham should learn a lesson or two.

One of worst massacres of black men occurred at Colfax, Louisiana, in 1873.

Blahblahblah. Black reparation pimps like this guy are always dwelling on the ancient past in their quest to blame everyone else for everything. Including, here, white feminists in particular.

I would love it if these two welfare whining interest groups went at each others throats in a politically significant way.. What Democrat fun!...Youre a racist! No, youre a sexist!

They all knew what Clinton was, they didnt care..it WAS about politics !.

From Rev. Jesse jackson back in 1991 ish
“there’s nothing he won’t do. He’s immune to shame. Move past all the nice posturing and get really down there in him, you find nothing...nothing but an appetite.”

That was one of the longest hissy fits I've ever read, but towards the end Reed gets it ...."many blacks finally get it. That they have been snookered by the Clintons. "

Wow. It's fun watching the Democrat Party implode.

So, this is what it took to bring the Clintons down: a black Dem candidate running against one of them. It looks like the Dems are in trouble.

Two interesting comments from the article:

It was made by Barbara Smith, a black feminist whom I debated on television and whose bitter comments about the white feminist movement make mine seem timid. She also criticizes the white Gay and Lesbian movements. She said that when she tried to join the Gay and Lesbian March on Washington, the leaders told her to get lost. That they weren't interested in black issues. That they wanted to mainstream.

Good. She learned an important lesson.

One angry man said that blacks supported Clinton during his marital problems and this is what they get for it. Another man said that he was going to vote for McCain as a way of protesting the Clinton's treatment of Obama. On Jan.11, an irate black woman called in and said that she had been devoted to the Clinton's since the 1990s, but after his attack on Obama, which she likened to " a knife in my chest," and which she described as "low down" she said that if Hillary were nominated, she'd either "vote Republican, or stay home."

...This black backlash against the Clintons provides the Republican Party with a golden opportunity to recruit black voters for McCain, but I doubt whether they will seize upon it. After all, while Clinton might have an office in Harlem, McCain has a black daughter!

I'm not a McCain supporter, but I find it classy of him not to use his family as tokens in his bid for the presidency.

“The welfare reform bill that has left thousands of women black, white, yellow and brown destitute”

Boo fricken hoo! As I recall you’re able to draw Welfare for a full TWO YEARS under the reform bill. If they can’t get their life in order in two years it’s because they aren’t even trying. This was one of the few actually good things that happened under Bill Clinton, and this sap is whining about it.

A black Ph.D. caller said that he found blacks in a barbershop to be more prescient than he. They said that once whites entered the voting booth, they'd vote for the white candidate no matter what they said to the pollster.

all N.H. proved was "once liberal, leftist whites entered the polling booth," if that.

Even though Reed’s stock in trade has always been paranoia, I find it delicious that he’s leading the charge to break the Clinton Crime Family’s lock on the Democrat party.
