Racism is vital to the health of the Democrat Party. It is its oxygen.

An absolute truth.

Reminds me of a Star Trek episode where hate was the energy of the evil one ;)

Liberals will lose substantial political power in this nation the day racism continues to exist..

I think you meant to say "ceases" to exist.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

There is nothing wrong with black Americans, IN GENERAL.

The democrats hate blacks and are, in effect, today's version of the slave owners that existed before the Republicans destroyed them. These dems have followed the lessons they learned years ago, they have utilized a handful of black overseers to control the total black population.

The black overseers, the Belafontes, Waters, Jacksons, Sharptons, etc. of the country are black race pimps. In return for their own well being and wealth/status from the dem slave masters, they keep the blacks in line and deliver them to "work" on election days.

These black race pimps know that once blacks begin to think for themselves, the blacks will reject them and the white slave masters will toss them out.

Note that while the racist black hating dems SAY they support black interests, there are no black leaders in the the organization (other, perhaps, than the Congressional Black Caucus, field hands who've been given their own little plot of ground to work but with little influence on the entire plantation).

It may be about liberal ideology, but it is also about the traditional racism of black hating democrats. An honest press would examine the racist traditions of the democrats including Byrd, Hollings, Gore's father, and many of the old Southern dem congressmen who are still left.

When mentioning the RaceCard® I think it's essential that we all use the ®.

We must not fail to emphasize that the RaceCard® is the invention and sole property of the liberal Democratic Party.

Remember... RaceCard®...

"Therefore they work feverishly to keep racism alive."

Probably the easiest path to true equality for Blacks in general is obtaining a good education.

This said; the NEA and the liberal educators have stopped any attempt to give blacks a decent education at every turn in the last 50 years.

In our town we had a "court ordered busing" plan to obtain racial "harmony" in the schools. The emphasis was on counting the numbers and adjusting the racial balance in local schools to meet some quota. Education in all our schools lost out to this mindless attempt social engineer the next generation. In my opinion it proved that kids who came from homes where the parents were interested in their kids getting a good education got a good education.

B-T-W the busing has stopped but the schools are in such terrible shape that I don't know if they can be fixed!

As long as there is a BLACK CAUCUS, BLACK HISTORY MONTH, NAACP, and The United Negro College Fund... there will be black on white racism in USA. I am part black, mostly white... and I think there should be no all black associations if there can't be all white ones. This is racism pure and simple.

Blacks have been lied to by liberals, especially Democrats. They were led to believe that if they rioted and protested in the streets, voted liberals into office, and cried out against every perceived slight, their lot in life would improve.

In other words, they had to galvanize into action, but that action was to agitate for redistributionism.

I'd be pretty upset, too. But mostly at myself for being a dupe for some politician or would-be "black leader".

How come blacks can criticize whites, calling them honkies . . .

Has "honkey" ever had any sting as an epithet or even been uttered publicly since a late '70's Richard Prior comedy appearance on SNL?

As this is a predicate of this gentleman's arguments, his arguments will be dismissed by and then embolden the very audience he hopes to persuade.

This article does not advance the conservative cause.

Think not? Why?

I saw it a week or so ago, and didn’t post it, in sympathy with your view.

Honkeys, that's verbal nonsense.

Did blacks cheer because Simpson had killed two whites and got away with it? I don’t believe that. A different perception of the system perhaps, but it wasn't about killing whites.

Do blacks empathize with Iraq as the underdog? No, it’s a political thing. Blacks align themselves with the democratic party, no surprise they’re aligned with dem issues, that doesn’t make them unpatriotic.

Why haven’t blacks assimilated? Well, the dems would say they’ve assimilated just fine.

Duffy is a little crude, but I think he addresses the essential question of large government vs small government just fine. He’s not racist, and, given some thought, I don’t think his view harms either conservatives or Republicans.

Yes, I meant "ceases." (I've been away and just found your question).

Sorry, I can't agree with you. To me this represents a lack of character amongst the Black legislators. Bear in mind that I'm not saying the White ones have more character.

It seems that political correctness is still alive and thriving. Sticks and stones will break my bones, but names will never hurt me. Grow up.

Why is it so difficult, to point out ways that we are ALL alike. You can call me a honky, breed, etc., etc., maybe even black. I don't know my family history dating back to when the dinosaurs roamed.

All I know is, I AM AN AMERICAN. I tired of listening to those who want to be separate, but equal; and those who don't know all the many meanings behind words of the English language.
