Thanks for posting this.

Rush did a good job of playing many of GW's speech that you posted.

It was obvious from the audience's response that many agreed with him.

I concur -- W's common-sense talk resonated well with the blacks in the audience....and they probably were "shocked" to find out that Pres Bush ISN'T the "devil" he has been made out to be by the black "leadership" in the US...

Golly gee whiz. And here we've been told that President Bush was supposed to be an enemy of black Americans and that the feeling was mutual.

Today's appearance speaks volumes about that Socialist-generated myth and even more about the NAACP and its "leadership."

In your faces and up your @**es, Kwasi, Julain, and comrades...

They'll still vote Democratic in November - it's reflexive.

Some good pull-quotes from W's speech that hit home:

(1) Does the Democrat party take African American voters for granted? (Applause.) It's a fair question. I know plenty of politicians assume they have your vote. But do they earn it and do they deserve it? (Applause.) Is it a good thing for the African American community to be represented mainly by one political party? That's a legitimate question. (Applause.) How is it possible to gain political leverage if the party is never forced to compete? (Applause.) Have the traditional solutions of the Democrat party truly served the African American community?

(2) Does blocking the faith-based initiative help neighborhoods where the only social service provider could be a church? Does the status quo in education really, really help the children of this country? (Applause.)

(3) Does class warfare -- has class warfare or higher taxes ever created decent jobs in the inner city? Are you satisfied with the same answers on crime, excuses for drugs and blindness to the problem of the family? (Applause.)

His speech is why he is hated by the black racists who are blood suckers for the White Elite Lunatic Lefties in charge of the Rat Party.

Every Black who listens to and believes in what GW believes in, is a lost voter for Je$$e and the other Rat overseers.

mhking, mrustow for your information and ping lists, thanks

I agree.....it is also neat to see how W superceded the Dems/black leadership groups by appearing at a DIFFERENT black leadership gathering OTHER THAN the leftist NAALCP (National Association for the Advancement of Liberal Colored People -- as Rush always says) -- the organization the Dems SO WANTED W to appear at and get hammered with protests......never under-estimate W!!

The left wing maggots get so upset that the "stupid/dumb" GW refuses to go into rat traps like the NAACP and allow them to insult him and put his head into a noose and kick the chair out from under him.

So GW goes to a place where there is dialog not the vile hatred that oozes from the worthless NAACP which is controlled by the Rats and the ACLU.

Is this all you have to say about his speech?

Oh no - it's a great speech. But I've heard so many black people espousing the exact same ideas as in this speech, then turn around and say they just can't vote for a Republican, or how John Kerry really cares, or some such, that I've lost faith that there'll be any significant shift in the vote.

I think, coming on the heels of Cosby's remarks, this speech will be very well received. Bush hit it out of the park!

I didn't hear it or see it, but now I've read it, and this is a great speech. Excellent conversational tone, plenty of meat nicely presented. One gigantic home run.

May God Bless President George W. Bush. May he be given even more wisdom than is evidently displayed here. May he be have victories over the enemy both her and abroad. Especially the enemy that enslaves our minorities and destroys our children. May he be enabled to protect Marraige here in American; that Marraige is between one man and one woman. May he turn back the tide of activist judges who go outside or against our own consistution.

May the ememies who block justice in America stumble, fall and not recover. Espeically the enemies behind the Fillibustering of federal judges, also those who murder babies in the birth canal and on tables, and those who promote unbelief. May they blow away as chaff is upon the wind.

Lord give our nation repentance and revival - such that the world has not known. For the sake of your Son I ask it. Amen.

I agree with the conversational tone of the speech -- the difference between W talking to blacks and Lurch talking to them is this: W converses with them while Lurch feeds them red meat (talks AT them)...
