RE: Us ? Who are you (plural), Legion ?

This is a thread my friend. Anyone who comes to this thread will be reading your accusations. So yes, give us ( or if you like, ME ), the exact quote Herman Cain said that makes him a race baiter similar to Al Sharpton.

Here are some of Al Sharpton’s race baiting remarks :

* He called Jews “Diamond Merchants with the blood of innocent babies in their hands” in 1991

* He called Caucasians who shopped at Harlem’s Freddy’s Fashion Mart “White Interlopers”. “We will not stand by,” he warns malignantly, “and allow them to move this brother so that some white interloper can expand his business.” Sharpton’s National Action Network sets up picket lines; customers going into Freddy’s are spat on and cursed as “traitors” and “Uncle Toms.” Some protesters shout, “Burn down the Jew store!”

* In 1087, Sharpton accused a White Cop of raping Tawana Brawley ( later proven to be a hoax ) and stoked racial demagoguery.

I gave you just three examples of what Al Sharpton did. Now you, my friend, said that Herman Cain is doing something similar to Al Sharpton. SO TELL ME EXACTLY WHAT HE DID...

He said that it was "insulting" that the family of Rick Perry owned a hunting camp with a racially charged name well into the 1980s and possibly even later.

The facts are, Perry's family never owned the property in question and when they found the rock with the offending language, they painted it over and eventually turned it over so it couldn't be read. And they did that back in the 1980s.

to call something like that "insulting" at this point in time is nothing more than race-baiting, particularly since it expressly ignores the fact that they did what they could to get rid of the offending word. It's not the same calibre of race-baiting as that engaged in by Sharpton, and it's possible that Mr. Cain was intentionally fed partial facts in order to goad him into making a statement like this - which is why he needs to learn to think first, speak second, more often - but it is still, as it stands, race-baiting.

You are not my friend and my comments are not accusations; they are opinion, my point of view, and they are every bit as valid (if not more so) than yours.

You probably watched him on TV today (that is how cults work). You don't really need me to post what he said.

"There isn't a more vile, negative word than the 'n word,' and for him to leave it there as long as they did is just plain insensitive to a lot of black people in this country," he said during an interview on "Fox News Sunday."

"Since Governor Perry has been going there for years to hunt, I think that it shows a lack of sensitivity for a long time of not taking that word off of that rock and renaming the place," Cain told "This Week" anchor Christiane Amanpour. "It's just basically a case of insensitivity."

And then the hypocritical Cain used the word himself on national TV; what a racist hypocrite. He practiced racism today; I guess he needs the money.

In retrospect he is going to apologize to the homosexual soldier pimping the end of DADT. He is a fake, fake, fake conservative.
