Awwww.... I made you mad. Now you need to clean the spittle off your monitor. Do it quick before it gets into the electronics. At least you know your post is not excessively vitriolic - that bar is set VERY VERY high.

Yes, you made him mad. You punched him right in the sacred. He told you the truth and you spit on him. He laid out for you the logic of reality and sanity and you shit right in the middle of it. You told him you are hopeless and incapable of redemption. You told him that among his fellow being are creatures of worthless shit, devoid of logic and reason, that utter scum walks the earth claiming to be human. And now you get to rub salt in the wound you created. You showed him your filthy ass because you have no shame, you disgusting worthless worm, because you are a nut that is all shell and no meat.

Good job. But you don't make me mad you cretinous shit, because I already know all the pain you intend to inflict. I am here to save you. You have been forgiven because you know not what you do, you dog with the lance of crucification. I know your shame.

Its not an argument. Its a fact.

And it supports your view that the increase in % of black people voting Democrat is not due to racism how?

If a large # of AA could not be bothered to vote for a white Democrat in 2004, but could be bothered to vote for a black Democrat in 2008 I wonder why that could be? :hmm:

Full of racists? I don't know, full of idiots? Yes most definitely and I'm not speaking about the general population I'm talking about their elected officials.

They are the party of ignorance and they proudly display it whenever they can.

If I was a real republican I'd be pissed and doing everything I could to kick these people out if the party and back into the shadows from where they came.

It just isn't a racist thread until Phokus whips out the one line from a political strategist used over 30 years ago.
I guess Colin Powell's chief of staff never got to meet the Democrat Senate Majority Leader from 1977 to 1989.
It's not a racist thread until you bring up Robert Byrd, the guy that hasn't been in the Senate in over 20 years-and the fact that he is DEAD.
You're trying to deny the fact that the party of the racists has changed to the Republicans, and has been for many years. The KKK endorsed Ronald Reagan you dipshit.

Yes white republicans are racists.

Not the 96% of blacks that vote only for one party.

As I said in another thread in 1960 Nixon got 32% of the black vote. In 1964 that went down to 6%. We all know what happened around that time and Republicans have failed to deal with attitudes during and after that time period.

Why are we just talking white v black racism. When Hispanic voters are now the far bigger racial demographic. And as racial minorities tend to become ever larger parts of the voting public, the GOP is doing a miserable job in advocating policies likely to appeal to Hispanic voters. GOP Gov. Pete Wilson of California totally alienated the legal Hispanic voter in California two decades ago, and the electoral college delegates of California have not gone the GOP ever since. And now carious GOP Governor's like Jan Brewster are trying to emulate Pete Wilson. As solid red States are becoming swing States. And its probably going to be far worse for the GOP by 2016.

Wilkerson is absolutely correct.

You can always find one racist in either party but the overwelming majority of them are Republican.

Here is the biggest problem Republican leadership makes a comfortable home for racists. Like their demands of moderate Muslims there is never a loud and unequivicated denouncement of racism. There are always "winks and nodes", "we don't tell people what to think", "words don't mean anything", dog whistles, voter supression, etc. Leadership constantly is in denial lest the hoards of racists get uncomfortable and leave the Republican party.

Democrats don't tolerate it. They learned lessons from 1964 and the SS.

You can change the title on helicopter to Republican Party and it would still apply
