...I think THIS is only gonna get worse.  Especially with how poor the GOP has been doing of late.
 
Dang.

Oh...and if you were gonna vote for Ron Paul...hmmm...

Simply evil.

F' it. God forgive me. Indulging my "Southern African-American" ego self just a bit...

In my opinion, the simmering racism in the White people who have never wanted Obama in office is coming more and more to the surface as the GOP keeps f'in up their chances. At the rate of the GOPs self-evisceration, there could actually be ATTEMPTS on Obama's life.

But to OUTRIGHT talk about killin' the kids? WTF.

It's racism...pure and simple. Oh, and did you notice?

Manson, an avid Ron Paul supporter and libertarian, also writes that he has since been visited by the Secret Service, with whom he says he cooperated fully as he "was hiding nothing."

Ron Paul.

Any Ron Paul fans here?

I'd LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE to hear from you right about now.

Seriously?

If I were a dyed-in-the-wool Republican, I'd feel betrayed, staggered, and I'd sit this next election out. (Some have already said that they are!)

Thank God I ain't one. Heh. icon_bandit

Ok. One more...and then I need to pray, stat.

Obama Called ‘Skinny, Ghetto Crackhead’ On Fox News

My old dead anti-white-racist self is starting to rise up...grr...

Kill it, Lord.  Kill it.

I agree with poster, SangZe:

"The racism of fox "news" and the republican party is becoming more and more overt. This is frightenin­g since it calls to mind the anti-semit­ism of nazi Germany. Most literate people know where that ended. This is not an issue of freedom of speech. It is a form of terrorism."

I think Ron Paul is the "best" or "least" worse candidate running.

So what is it you're referring to specifically, D?

I'm speaking about things emerging about Ron Paul, Jeff.  
 
What do you think about some of the incendiary things being brought out...AND the way he's been handling it?  He seems to AT BEST be ambivalent to racism issues caused by his proponents.  At worst, he actually BELIEVES in things like a possible race war...and stuff.  

Would do you think, Jeff?  Honestly interested. 

See here.

----------------------------

Race

“A Special Issue on Racial Terrorism” analyzes the Los Angeles riots of 1992: “Order was only restored in L.A. when it came time for the blacks to pick up their welfare checks three days after rioting began. ... What if the checks had never arrived? No doubt the blacks would have fully privatized the welfare state through continued looting. But they were paid off and the violence subsided.”

The November 1990 issue of the Political Report had kind words for David Duke.

This December 1990 newsletter describes Martin Luther King Jr. as “a world-class adulterer” who “seduced underage girls and boys” and “replaced the evil of forced segregation with the evil of forced integration.”

A February 1991 newsletter attacks “The X-Rated Martin Luther King.”

An October 1990 edition of the Political Report ridicules black activists, led by Al Sharpton, for demonstrating at the Statue of Liberty in favor of renaming New York City after Martin Luther King. The newsletter suggests that  “Welfaria,”  “Zooville,” “Rapetown,” “Dirtburg,”and “Lazyopolis ” would be better alternatives—and says,  “Next time, hold that demonstration at a food stamp bureau or a crack house.”

A May 1990 issue of the Ron Paul Political Report cites Jared Taylor, who six months later would go onto found the eugenicist and white supremacist periodical American Renaissance. 

The January 1993 issue of the Survival Report worries about America’s “disappearing white majority.”

The July 1992 Ron Paul Political Report declares, “Jury verdicts, basketball games, and even music are enough to set off black rage, it seems,” and defends David Duke. The author of the newsletter—presumably Paul—writes, “My youngest son is starting his fourth year in medical school. He tells me there would be no way to persuade his fellow students of the case for economic liberty.”

A March 1993 Survival Report describes Bill Clinton’s supposedly “illegitimate children, black and white: ‘woods colts’ in backwoods slang.”

I think he's handling them poorly. But I don't know that his claim is false. And neither does CNN since they provided absolutely zero evidence that they learned anything to that effect since the last time they asked him the questions. The way the press has ignored Ron Paul despite his poll ratings demonstrates the literal shamelessness of the political process. Even Jon Stewert and Saturday Night Live have pointed out the shamelessness of it. Why I would assume they're objective is beyond me.

Would you actually VOTE for Paul...knowing this stuff, Jeff?

Does Paul SERIOUSLY THINK that people of color (Blacks, Latinos, etc) are gonna vote for him?

Seriously.

Let me ask you this. If you were 55 and African-American...and you read the stuff that I've been putting up...

would you vote for Ron Paul?

Some people of color WILL vote for him. Just like some people of color will vote for whoever gets the Republican nomination.

Paul has denied knowing of those statements at the time they were written. But it is not surprising that his supporters would make such comments. Even Patrick Moynihan regretted his support of the Great Society programs because of how myopic they were designed. People say things "over the top" all the time. You do it, D. It's called ANGER and FRUSTRATION. And anger and frustration adversely affect folks' objectivity. That doesn't mean we shouldn't apply the golden rule and look for the TRUTH that is part of their over-generalizations.

The libertarian approach is the best approach for all poor people as far as I'm concerned. But even then, it would require that people be tolerant of one another to work together for COLLECTIVE BARGAINING. That's the only way power can be restrained without leading ultimately to violence. Violence occurs all the time due to jealously and envy. Sometimes it turns in to bona-fide war. Humans are SWIFT to shed blood. And that includes Democratic and Republican politicians.

D: Let me ask you this. If you were 55 and African-American...and you read the stuff that I've been putting up...

J: I suspect Walter Williams will vote for Ron Paul -- see the bottom of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_E._Williams

Dude, are you seriously telling me that Paul didn't know about ANY of the statements that were written over those years? And are you saying that those newsletter contents were simply "anger and frustration"???

You don't really believe that, do you?

hmmm

I'll show you something, ok? Let's say that Paul's newsletters--for years--weren't talking about Blacks...but talking about JEWS, basically asserting/abetting anti-semitism politically?

Would you still be talking like you are? Would you still try to see him as a viable candidate?  Would you hire someone who was ambivalent to outright anti-semitism IN HIS NAME for years...just because they were solidly libertarian??

Just wondering.

Here's the thing, D. I think if Ron Paul was elected he'd be assassinated. The mainstream Republican party hates him. So my voting for him has nothing to do with anything realistic. It'll be nothing more than a statement that I prefer a more libertarian government. And the he won't get the nomination.

Do I think anger and frustration affects objectivity? You bet I do. Do I think much of the rhetoric you're talking about by some of Ron Paul's supporters is aimed at the EFFECTS of government rather than racism per se? You bet I do. I know of literally ZERO bona-fide racists is by racist we mean someone that discriminates by race per se. And of those who are true racists, not all of them believe in harming any one. The press denies distinctions where they exist and creates them where they don't for their OWN AGENDA.

Think about it, D. You've admitted to having racist thoughts. But seriously, did you ever actually believe that a person was evil MERELY because of their race? Seriously? I find that so irrational I have a hard time believing it.

Hmm. I see that he's supposed to be on Rush Limbaugh on Dec 30th. I'm actually going to take time out and WATCH that show...and see if I can call in. (I've never watched a Rush show in life...but I will do it for this).

I would just want him to explain ON AIR why young African-Americans should vote for Paul...given what we've seen.

NO! Bump that.

I'm callin' him.

Well I really don't have much to say D. It's shameless. But as a Canadian I can't get away from watching and listening to how politics is played and hyped up in the American media. These issues and scandals keep cropping up and I essentially grow weary of it because we never reality get at any substantial articulation concerning just government and governing. It's like watching American Idol all over again .,ie who can make a name for themselves, etc.

I disagree with you about politics per se, D. I won't vote for either of the final 2 candidates that have a chance of winning. Because I will have no idea which is the greater of evils. And I'm certain they both WILL be evils. They couldn't have gotten the big money behind them OTHERWISE. But never mind that. Just LISTEN to them. They don't even believe in fairness. They believe in partisanship.

No. I have NEVER believed that white people were evil MERELY because of their race. (Neither did anyone in my family). I believed that the white SYSTEM was evil...because I was called a nigger by someone in every grade I can remember. And when I had a white girlfriend, she would be called a nigger-lover by someone.

How's that.

Just a question. Do you believe that your "whiteness" affects your take on politics...AT ALL?

If so, how possibly?
