Romney: Obama won by offering 'gifts' to blacks

The fact that the Republican party spent over 40 years telling disadvantaged whites that they plight was due to "gifts" to black folks made it almost impossible toto build a constituency based on common economic interests. Actually it's been more than 40 years; read the accounts of union organizers in the auto and coal industries from the 50s, you'll see the same thing.

Mind getting a link to republicans saying this . Not a repulsive party voter but actually repulsive officals . . Your talking 1972 . Lets see those links or it didn't happen
 
Problem with your theory is this , Your going the same time the babyboomers go . You really think their is a future . Check out earthquakes daily . were up to about 1 6mag aday now , Soon enough it will be 7 mag daily . Your a freaken fool who doesn't know his time has come. Its bad enough gooberments are tring to make prophecy happen . Threw haarp In USA and Russia China and India all are working on weather modification , Threw High freq beams .

Do you intentionally use the wrong words and capitalize words in the middle of sentences but not at the beginning?
 
HEY ASSHOLE...

I'm black and I have yet to get my gift from Obama that wasen't offered to whitey. Hasen't come in the mail yet. Hey the USPS is a government agency why hasen't it shipped? I should quit my job and wait at home for my gift. Ooops can't do that it would destroy your perception of 47% of the population. Hey maybe if I owned a show horse I would have gotten $77K in the mail.

What a dick. I'm sure that attutude will help the Republican Party with the minority vote next time.

Among the “gifts” Romney cited were free health care “in perpetuity,” which he said was highly motivational to black and Hispanic voters as well as for voters making $25,000 to $35,000 a year.

Romney also said the administration’s promise to offer what he called “amnesty” to the children of illegal immigrants — what he termed “the so-called DREAM Act kids” — helped send Hispanics to the polls for Obama.

so technically......he wasnt lying

have you tried reading instead of reacting to a headline?

you can disagree that its a gift, but you cant say he didnt do that....just sayin 😛

So it comes down to semantics. Any form of assistance is a gift. The next time I help mow my 87 years-old neighbor's lawn for her, I'll make sure she knows it's a gift that I'm giving her, and I am entitled to her giving me a handjob whenever I need one.

Romney could very well have said this: Obama's policies just happen to favor the majority more, and that's why he won the election. But he didn't, he had to be a fucking cry baby about it. But that is expected from someone who is so detached with the reality of what the rest of the country is going through.

I believe that Cain was a big part of Obama's win. Just seeing the Republicans go gaga over this guy scared the bejesus out of many Americans. It's like going to see a cancer doctor and he's sitting there dressed as a clown.

In case you are interested, I dress like a clown when I operate on conservatives to alleviate any fear they may have as to what it is I intend to cut out.
 
The only real gift he has given you is to show you what a huge amount of racist white trash still lives in this country. That number will be cut by 2/3rds once the Baby Boomers die off, thank God.

Many of which lurk this forum.....

No no no. I am a great person, much better than anyone else. I have amassed a great fortune and need nobody else. I can pay to have somebody, even a legal, mow my lawn. I don't need charity from people like you.

What I need is your worship. I want you to see that I am everything you are not. I have no needs. I totally take care of myself.

And as a result my heart has grown cold. I realize that folk like you are as common as fleas, and like them want to suck my blood. You want to extract from me my greatness, my life blood, the means by which I can claim to be superior, my wealth and my exulted station in life. You want your neighbor's lawn cut on my dime. You want to give my stuff to them.

I am a king in this world and you make me feel resentment. Don't you realize that it's only when people aspire to be like me, better by far than others, with the right to rub that in your nose, that makes the economy go and this country great? Only greed envy pride ambition, hubris, and arrogance keep the stars in the heavens from crashing to the ground, you stupid little blood sucking flea? I will tell you what is a gift and what is not. Nobody is a greater gift than me.

Our real selves were destroyed as children to protect us from the ridicule that being real brings. We were given an alternate communal self respect, the greatness of belonging to the best team. Thus, owning to the time place and culture we were born in, got dealt belonging to the great white race. Many whites are so so so deeply sad, from the butchering they took as children, that they have nothing left in the way of personal pride except the color of their skin. They are hateful and disgusting but deep down we are all the same. You can never be free of some similar disease if you belong to any team.
 
I see Republicans are well on their way to expanding their voting base next election. Unless they plan on cloning a few million middle aged white people in the next few years, they are on their way to becoming a permanent minority with this tired old rhetoric.

Changing gift to "free stuff" the outrage is Obama gave stuff to black people in order to get their vote. There is nothing he "gave" exclusively to black people but that is the insinuation.

So in the minds of red staters "those lazy shiftless black people are on the government dole and vote Democrat to keep getting their stuff"

John Stewart has Cain on occasionallly and he treats him like a serious person and just lets Cain act normally. Its pretty funny that unintentionally Cain is just so damn funny.
 
Did he run ?? No. I would have loved to see him run vs Obama. The black vote would not be 12 to 1 for Obama it would be more even since either way you voted it was for a black man.

Heh. Standard right wing denial. Black people vote for Democrats 90+% of the time, even when it's two white guys running.

Cain vs Obama wouldn't have changed that at all.

If you said that more blacks registered & voted because Obama was running, you'd probably be right. It upped his vote totals slightly in states he would win, anyway.

There are probably more white people who voted for Romney because he's white than black people who voted for Obama because he's black, a lot more. Blacks are only 12% of the population, and white racism is still as American as Mom & apple pie in many places in this country.

:thumbsup:

It makes me giggle when I see idiot conservatives playing the race card as an excuse for their own misfortunes. You'd think that's something reserved for uneducated minorities.

Not that this has anything to do with the topic of discussion, but there are still way more racist white people percentage wise than any minorities.
 
Seriously, will you people just give the country over to us asian immigrants? We work harder, are more educated, and basically already dominate the engineering and higher sciences fields. We take relatively little government assistance and don't try to get up in other people's business.

All the rest of you are just bringing us down...

Well, this was Lee Atwater talking in 1981
You start in 1954 by saying ‘N****r, n****r, n****r.’ By 1968 you can’t say ‘******.’ That hurts you. It backfires. So you say stuff like forced busing, states rights and all that stuff and you get so abstract. Now you talk about cutting taxes and these things you’re talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is, ...blacks get hurt worse than whites. And subconsciously maybe that’s part of it. I’m not saying that. But I’m saying that if it is getting that abstract and that coded, we are doing away with the racial problem one way or the other. Obviously sitting around saying we want to cut taxes and we want this, is a lot more abstract than even the busing thing and a hell of a lot more abstract than ****** ******. So anyway you look at it, race is coming on the back burner.

I even didn't realize that the taped interview was posted yesterday.
Lee Atwater’s Infamous 1981 Interview on the Southern Strategy
His tactics have become an essential component of Republican discourse -- to the point that most don't even realize they are following his script even now.
 
The sad and scary thing is that he is absolutely right yet people will bleat on about how heartless he is and out of "step" he is with the majority.....

The majority are either in denial of the fact that they aren't producers or they are deeply offended a spade is being called a spade.

regardless, the sad truth is that regardless of how right this belief is, it will have to be abandoned and instead ignored so as to win votes...as even if people are in such a position they don't like being reminded of that
 
Just as many if not more white people on the dole as other races or ethnic groups.

Welcome to handout nation.


doesn't matter what color they are. Once a nation has a critical mass of moochers and parasites the host is finished. The moochers and parasites just elected their moocher and chief obama.
