"..removed from her post Saturday, after she said the Democratic Party made black people "dependent on the government."

I hope some Hispanics got to hear this, at least. And I hope the McCain campaign knows that the way to reach out to them is to emphasize independence, initiative and success through your own hard work. Many immigrants (not only Hispanics) live in or near black neighborhoods, and I think the sorry fate of people who have become wards of the government scares them.

There is no democRATic party anymore, just a bunch of snot-nosed incompetents hell-bent on exploiting the poverty they create.

She was speaking the truth. “They” fired her. That’s my point, if I didn’t make it clear.

She spoke the truth! Why fire her? The Democrats have convinced many (but not all) black people that if they don’t vote Democrat, they are betraying their race. For example, I am originally from Maryland and I saw how the liberals treated former Lt. Gov. Michael Steele when he ran for the Senate seat (the “Oreo cookie incident,” for instance). It was deplorable and racist!

So did he get fired becuase of public outcry? Or were the dims being little babies and calling the GOP? Geez a Republican say anything that’s not PC and his own party fires him. A democrat can say anything and refuse to fire anyone! I haven’t heard about Rangle getting fired for his scandles yet..have you???

Hate to admit it, but this can not be blamed solely on the dims. Lots of “cultural” predisposition to non-responsibility played a big role.
