Wal-Mart cutting the cost of "black Barbie" to almost half that of the "white Barbie". Should be reduced only 3/5.

BWAHAHAHAHA!

And yet, not a WORD or a peep from Al Sharpless or that bastard Jessie Jackass about Rap CRAP music full of references to “Nigger” this or “Nigger “ that...

Friggin damned hypocrites.

I work in a racially diverse environment, and that kind of nonsense isn’t indulged in. However, I once told a joke to a mixed assemblage involving “galley slaves.” I got not so much as a chuckle from the black folks in the group—evidently they associate all slavery with black slavery. I didn’t bother correcting them.

“Don’t forget the tool who claimed the word ‘picnic’ to be racist because, he claimed, it originated in ‘pick a nigger’ to lynch.”

Wouldn’t that be “picnig”?

"Democrats and black people are overplaying their hand with the racism crap."

A Dem strategist who once worked for Kerry, I think her name is Maryanne March, was on Fox News this morning saying that Trump's asking about Obama's college records was racist on his part. It was amazing hearing her say that since the Republican female analyst (can't remember her name) who was debating her was black. The Republican female took her to task for using that as an example of racism. How stupid are these white Dems to even bring up the race card in front of a black Republican?

Is Blazing Saddles ever aired on network TV? It was an ANTI-racism movie. It made fun of the "simple people of the Earth, you know, morons."

I had a good laugh last week after standing in line to pay a cashier and talking with my kids about hearing the hound dogs hunting coons up at my parents place decades ago.

Turned around to face a black cashier who didn’t bat an eye at what I’d said.

Funny to find humor in that I briefly worried about it.

Liberals do not consider black conservatives to be black.

It’s all they’ve got left. Theior immoral “lifestyles” have diseased their brains, and the only ideas that they can come up with, are the same ones they’ve been spewing for the last 60 yeats...that, and turnspeaking successful righy wing attacks that have been made agaibst *them*

The DimoTards are left with only the brainpower to be reactionary. They can’t anything more than to mimic us.

Their “intellectual elite” are all brain dead.

“The black vote switched to overwhelmingly and permanently democrat in 1936, there is no “almost” and there is no “50 years” and there is no “Kennedy” as is usually mentioned, or in this case, implied.”


I thought that Eisenhower was still getting close to 40% of the black vote in the 1950s. DJ, is my recollection correct?

Yes, the New Deal saw black voters switch from overwhelmingly Republican to overwhelmingly Democrat (starting in 1934; in 1932 most blacks still voted for Hoover and reelected black Republican Congressman Oscar Stanton DePriest to his congressional seat in Chicago’s South Side), but the black vote did not become monolithic (85%+ Democrat) until the late 1980s IIRC.

“...what should I call it, African-American coffee?”

I once read an article that was written here in the US and discussed something happening in Africa. I can’t remember the actual subject, but I do recall reading the phrase “African-American Africans.”

I still laugh about that every now and then.

They know they'll get away with it. There is no such thing as a black Republican or a black conservative, to liberals (of all skin colors). "Black" and "Democrat" are inseparable.

A 39% Republican vote in 1956 is still overwhelmingly Democrat.

I saw one in the San Diego Union that was “African-American Peruvian” or (Brazilian or something) in an article about a story in that nation.

Looks like a ballot initiative is needed here: Change the name of this town in Pennsylvania.

I believe Eisenhower got something in the mid-to-high 30s range (Nixon in ‘60 was the last time it was at or above 20%). The Black vote also depended upon where it was coming from, with Northern Blacks going Democrat before Southern Blacks did. Interestingly, Blacks weren’t still necessarily monolithic Democrat even during that transitional period into the early ‘60s. Such as in the 1950 Maryland Senate race, Baltimore Blacks voted overwhelmingly for Conservative Republican John Marshall Butler over liberal Democrat and racist anti-McCarthy antagonist Millard Tydings. However, the year before in a 1949 Special election in NY, Republican John Foster Dulles in the Senate race apparently received only around 1/10th of the Black vote, more what we tend to see these days.

One interesting fact I learned about the 1934 House race in IL-1 that featured the first election of a Black Democrat (Arthur Mitchell) over the Black Republican incumbent Oscar DePriest is that Blacks did NOT provide the Democrat the margin of victory. It was an almost uniform vote of Whites coupled with a minority of the Black vote in the district for Mitchell that gave him a victory (moreso when Mitchell won, he took the rather “Conservative” position that he just simply wanted to be viewed as “A” Congressman, rather than a “Black” Congressman and automatic national spokesman for the Black community as DePriest was). It was Mitchell’s refusal to act in such a role that saw him replaced by 1942 by William Dawson, who nearly beat Mitchell in 1938 as the Republican nominee. The GOP still got above 40% of the vote as late as 1946, but after the 1950s and disintegration of the Chicago GOP did the vote dwindle to virtually nothing (1956 was the last relatively decent year when Ike did well). From 1964 onwards, it came down to the level we’ve mostly seen since.

You still had another examples of Blacks providing the margin of victory in the Birmingham Mayoral election in 1967 for the Republican and other isolated or unusual incidents (the infamous Miami-Dade Mayoral when Blacks broke for the Republican Art Teele almost entirely while Cubans voted for the Democrat winner by similar uniform margins).
