You know what, I’ve had an uneasy feeling for a long time about Watts. I heard him on Hannity’s program a few days ago and it only confirmed my gut feeling. If this is true, he obviously puts race before values.

So sick of these guys being so ill-informed on how the Republican Party, throughout history, has always done much, much MORE for blacks than the Dems (who’ve really done nothing). He should read Rev. Wayne Perryman’s book (and more) on this subject - I’ve heard Perryman speak on cspan quite eloquently about it (BTW - he’s black).
He’s not the only one. Armstrong Williams has made similar remarks.
I work with black men. There’s something about being black that is almost ingrained in many blacks, even conservative ones, that color DOES trump everything, because of their past.
Being white it’s hard to understand, but it’s true, and it’s disheartening in a way, because as a group they’d be better off to shed these feelings.
