At a fundraiser in Jacksonville, Florida, Senator Barack Obama displayed his hypocrisy when he played the race card against Republicans, while whining that he expects Republicans to play the race card against him. This dishonest tactic is straight out of the Democratic Party’s race-baiting political playbook.
Since Obama wants the American people to believe he is disgusted by racism, we call upon Obama to condemn his fellow Democrats for their Jim Crow-style racist attacks against black Republicans because we do not adhere to the Democratic Party’s liberal agenda. More specifically, we ask Obama to condemn Democrat Senator Joe Biden who boasted proudly on FOX News that his qualification to be president was enhanced because his home state of Delaware held blacks in human bondage. “You don’t know my state,” Biden crowed, “my state was a slave state. “ Imagine the media firestorm that would have ensued if a Republican had uttered such an outrageously racist comment. We request that Obama denounce Democrat Senator Ted Kennedy who called black Republican judicial nominees, including Justice Janice Rogers Brown, "Neanderthals." We ask Obama to condemn Democrat Senator Harry Reid who appeared on Meet the Press and attacked black Republican Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, demeaning the justice as an incompetent Negro, incapable of writing good English. “Slap at Thomas stinks of racism,” was the headline of the New York Daily News’ December 7, 2004 editorial. We request that Obama denounce the Democrats who threw Oreo cookies (black on the outside and white on the inside) onto the stage during an appearance of Maryland’s former Lieutenant Governor Michael Steele when he was seeking a seat in Congress. We ask Obama to condemn the Democrat bloggers who posted a doctored photo of Michael Steel on the Internet, depicting him as a “Simple Sambo” with a Jim Crow-era “black face,” nappy hair and thick red lips. We request that Obama denounce the two members of the Democratic Senatorial Committee (DSCC) who resigned in September 2005 after admitting they illegally obtained Michael Steele’s credit report in a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, a federal offense. The two culprits were Katie Barge, the DSCC’s research director who pled guilty to a misdemeanor, and her deputy, Lauren Weiner. We ask Obama to condemn the Democrat talk show hosts and cartoonists who denigrated Dr. Condoleezza Rice after she was nominated to be the first black woman secretary of state. Democrat Pat Oliphant drew Dr. Rice as a big-lipped, buck-toothed squawking parrot, smearing her as an empty-headed stooge. Democrat Jeff Danzinger depicted Dr. Rice as a stereotyped “mammy,” barefoot and ignorant. Democrat Ted Rall referred to Dr. Rice as President Bush’s “House [N-word]”. Democrat John Sylvester characterized Dr. Rice on his radio talk show as a stupid, servile black woman, calling her an “Aunt Jemima”. We request that Obama denounce Democrat Senator Robert Byrd, a former “Keagle” in the Ku Klux Klan, who led other Democrats, including Senators John Kerry and Barbara Boxer, in a filibuster of Dr. Rice’s confirmation when she appeared before the Senate for her confirmation hearing. We ask Obama to apologize for writing a letter in support of former Klansman Democrat Senator Robert Byrd, considering the following facts about Byrd. - In 2001, Byrd was forced to apologize for using the N-word on television. - Byrd pushed to have the Senate’s main office building named after Democrat Senator Richard Russell, Byrd’s mentor and leading opponent of anti-lynching legislation. - Byrd, along with Democrat Senators Sam Ervin and Albert Gore, Sr., was a chief opponent of the 1964 Civil Rights Act and filibustered against the bill for 14 straight hours before the final vote. - Byrd, along with other racist Democrats, smeared Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. during the 1960’s. This racist attack on Dr. King was ongoing when Democrat President John F. Kennedy had Dr. King wiretapped and investigated by the FBI on suspicion of being a communist in order to undermine Dr. King. The relentless disparagement of Dr. King by Democrats led to his being physically assaulted and ultimately to his tragic death. In March of 1968, while referring to Dr. King's leaving Memphis, Tennessee after riots broke out where a teenager was killed, Byrd called Dr. King a "trouble-maker" who starts trouble, but runs like a coward after trouble is ignited. A few weeks later, Dr. King returned to Memphis and was assassinated on April 4, 1968. We request that Obama apologize to all black Americans for the Democratic Party’s 200-year history of racism against all black Americans as exposed in the books “Unfounded Loyalty” by Rev. Wayne Perryman and “A Short History of Reconstruction” by Dr. Eric Foner. We ask Obama to embrace the 2006 report by the Commission appointed by North Carolina’s governor which uncovered facts that prompted the Democratic Party of North Carolina to pass a unanimous resolution apologizing for the Democratic Party’s role in the bloody 1898 Wilmington Race Riots where dozens of black Americans were massacred. That apology is on the Internet at: http://www.ncdp.org/node/1546 . In a letter to the North Carolina Democratic Party, Lt. Governor Richard H. Moore wrote: “We can no longer ignore the fact that many of us grew up being taught a much sanitized – and inaccurate – history…. The truth is ugly.” If Obama refuses to condemn the Democrats for their racist past and current race-baiting against black Republicans, then what right does Obama have to preemptively accuse Republicans of using racism against him?

Redistribution of wealth is not a concept we should be fighting for. Do not take from one and give to another. Things like this start wars... Everytime we go shopping we redistribute the wealth. We pay taxes. BS winx BS.... we are being consumers when we shop. and half the USA is busy consuming foreign products!!!! did i say half..more like 90% probably ya..im guilty..and i guess it aint BS..we just AINT redistributing WEALTH the RIGHT way Not BS. I am not supporting foreign products when I buy groceries or go to the farmer's market. I am also spreading the wealth when I pay my income tax, Social Security, real estate tax, and personal property taxes onto of the sales tax. |

for that matter it was the Republicans who freed the slaves and it was Republicans who passed the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments to the U. S. Constitution granting blacks freedom, citizenship, and the right to vote and it was Republicans who passed the Civil Rights Acts of 1866 and 1875 granting blacks protection from the Black Codes and prohibiting racial discrimination in public accommodations and it was Republicans who sent U.S. troops to Arkansas to desegregate schools, established the Civil Rights Commission in 1958, and appointed Chief Justice Earl Warren to the U.S. Supreme Court which resulted in the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision ending school segregation Your are kidding right you are giving too much credit on the Republican party.............the Republican party was only good for black people until the end of slavery after that it changed to the HATE PARTY........................US troops can only be sent by Congress please dont give me a fallicious statement..............Brown v. Board of Education wasnt a milestone in America it did nothing............and they knew it would do nothing that is why it passed and by the way the whole world was watching the Civil Rights Movement by then that is why it even passed................they would look like idiots |

Redistribution of wealth is not a concept we should be fighting for. Do not take from one and give to another. Things like this start wars... So do you think there should be only a flat tax? Its one things to talk about concepts another to actually make good and fair policies. I am interested in what you think is fair. Honestly i would like to see our government spending cut back to the point where no one has to pay income tax... But, for right now, a flat tax sounds better then the system we have. I have a friend who's mother is a nurse. She got a $10,000 a year raise, yet brings home $500 less per year than she used to... |

Since African Americans were given the vote they have always choosen WHITE MEN for presidency.............black people have been a major promoter of white men in a position of power..............so I dont think if a black person especially someone as Obama who is educated and classy who is running for president should not get the black vote............... For me to vote I have to American which im not....................black people have been voting for RACIST WHITE MEN since they could vote so lets change it up and give that little power to someone else.................Oh yeah so far Bush(who is in the Republican party) has got us into a recession, we have higher gas prices, most of the people that I know are loosing their homes or in the mist of loosing their homes, young men and women have died in a war about oil (in vain), or but the most amazing of all things he is done is set us in a 3 trillion dollar deficit.........................GO REPS............ Sure, I could quote all kinds of programs designated only for blacks, such as the United Negro College Fund, Miss Black America, etc. I have always, as I am sure many other non-Negro people have, what repercussions would occur if there were White only groups as listed? We all know how that would turn out. And I REFUSE to add the tag of my heritage before the word American.... I'm American regardless of my color. By doing that it only causes separation amongst the HUMAN RACE once again.... |
