Biting the hand that feeds them, as usual.
--Booker T. Washington, 1911
Ms Braun is but one example.
She is another example of sending the worse and the dumbest instead of the best and the brightest to represent the people.
Whether Liberals know it or not, they are caricatures of themselves.
Jessie Jackass is the love child of the hate America first crowd.
"There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs. There is a certain class of race-problem solvers who don't want the patient to get well."
--Booker T. Washington, 1911

Truer words were never spoken. I have long though that the two so-called Reverends -- Jackson and Sharpton -- keep bringing up allegations of racism (true or not) simply because if they didn't, neither of them would be gainfully employed for long. This is how they make their living, posing in front of cameras and hurling unfounded accusations.
If they had the interests of "their people" at heart, why weren't they in NO or Biloxi or Gulfport or any of the other areas hard hit by Katrina -- to do some real work helping the desolate people? I didn't see either of them in the disaster areas handing out food, shoveling out the mess or doing anything meaningful to help out. Afraid to get their hands dirty?
It is all about THEM hating the fact that they aren't in POWER anymore. That is what it's all about. Nothing more, nothing less.
Oh, how true.
Carol Mostly Fraud is the the perfect example of, "you don't need a reason when you have an ideology"!
Then let them deny it.
News reporter: "Miss Streisand, it's been widely reported that you have offered the use of your home for displaced storm victims. How many New Orleans residents do you figure to put up in that California estate of yours?
Barbara Streisand: "Wha-wha-wha-WHATTTTTTTTTTT!!!???? Poor people, in MY house? On MY spotless white carpets and furniture? NONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONO"
It used to be that a charge of racism was a dart which always hit its intended target. The recipient would swiftly and permanently suffer the stigma without being able to defend himself. There is now so much evidence to the contrary that the charge itself is beginning to boomerang on the dart thrower, IMHO.
Why isn't she in jail ?

For those interested, this is the most comprehensive analysis of what happened in New Orleans and a timeline.
I've been close attention to this matter, as a lot of us have, and there is a lot of information in here that I did not know.
It also explains, specifically, why the feds were PROHIBITED by law, from acting in New Orleans, until the Governor signed a specific request for help.

What a great, and perfectly accurage quote from Booker T. Thanks for posting.
Oh, but it WAS racism that was the cause of all this misery. The racism that says "You'll never be able to handle life in this country without the government giving you all the basics." This fostered the mindset of dependence on the government and the support of a political party that pushes this ideology and overlooks all manner of corruption in order to acquire and maintain power. In plantation times, this racism was well-represented in the phrase "We treat our darkies GOOD."
