Same can be said about the Dems... CNN Political Ticker: All politics, all the time Blog Archive - Maloney apologizes for using N word - Blogs from CNN.com
I do agree with the statement earlier, that both parties don't care about the normal people anymore. I am tired of both parties.
This is probably why most demographic data show that groups don't vote in unison. There is no perfect party or one perfect answer to any question. Knowing this, don't you have any concern when one demographic votes 90+% for one party? I'm not trying to be an ass or stir the pot with this question. I simply want to know why this group so strongly supports one party when history proves it has not improved their situation. Are they being misled by this party? Are they being misled by a few vocal leaders who are benefitting from fame and fortune? Competition is good for the consumer. Don't you think there's a better chance for improvement if you can have a voice across the aisle? This country has remained relatively moderate due to the two-party system. Some vote party lines but many more sway the vote depending on the issues. This has worked well in our history. Maybe any group that has always voted for a single party is suffering the consequences of their one-sided support.
They were created because there was a time when they were needed. Can you tell me when they will end? Should we force the administration to have deadlines for the end of their programs similar to how they demanded Bush provide a completion date for the war in Iraq? Hey Obama...what's the completion date for Affirmative Action? How about Febraury 2, 2010? That should be more than enough time. After all, if we can fix health care in two months and solve the economic crisis in six months, can't we resolve social programs immediately as well? Can we solve social issues quickly?...sure! Will you continue to buy votes if you solve social issues quickly?...Hell NO! I guess we have our answer why these programs will never end.
(See boldprint I inserted) The very thought that popped into my head when I read MM's post, Purple. Your complete answer is fantastic, great job! Like I said about Dem's and Rep's caring only about their own power earlier, there are also a number of people out there that are using racism as their own personal power base. Racism certainly still exists in America, but if you listen to these people (led of course, by Mr. Sharpton and Mr. Jackson), you'd think it was still 1965. Ironic how these guys profess their love and admiration of Dr. King, but always forget that the most enduring message he left us was to strive for a day when color doesn't matter. To these people, it's all that matters.
The group in question continues to vote for the party because they see it as their "sugar daddy." It provides them with "entitlements" or "benefits" which, ironically, has kept them in a state of financial and cultural servitude - a situation which they fail to recognize. They see the federal government -and its agent, the Democratic Party - as their benefactor, when it is actually the new plantation system. The Democratic Party benefits from this plantation system because those who are dependant upon the federal government constitute the party's power base.
Dude you are quite the hypocrite. Your rhetoric doesnt surprise me at all. Instead of deal with the issues that I posted you try to attack me personally. Thats fine, I can deal with that. Even if you are a racist or a bigot I can deal with that. That doesnt effect my life, its really your problem. But I will always address your hypocrisy. You had nothing to say about the articles i posted, because you probably dont have a problem with the content. No rhetoric has been sold to me for 30-40 years. I'm only 28. I make my own decisions, I agree and disagree with both parties on various issues. But I wont ever be in a party that continually defines me by my color and uses race as a wedge issue. Maybe you are ok with that and again thats your problem. I dont really care. African Americans vote for one party because of the bullshyt racist who cleary show that they are racist in the republican party. Starting with Rush Limbaugh who elected republican officials dont even have the courage to stand up to and push back on his racist rhetoric. Pat Buchanan, Michael Savage, Glenn Beck.. These are the leaders of a party that you think black people are supposed to be apart of. Phuck that, you cant address that issue, you wont even admit the truth. Those are the facts, I can post a million racist comments from all those listed and even more than I listed yesterday. But you wont deal with that fact, you try to attack me personally because thats all you got. But it doesnt effect my life, so you can carry on your hypocrisy and bullshyt rhetoric. I'll be here to push back against your flaming bag of shyt nonsense. And Welcome back, thumb: And Thanks for the welcome back. We can continue are love/hate relationship. Cause somedays I love you and other days I hate you. Go Figure.
Thats a totally different issue from what is clear racism in the articles I posted. Deal with the facts of the articles, If you can. Instead of making excuses. Deal with the fact that decent black people dont want to be apart of a party that continually has these issues and the self claim leader of the party gets on the radio and spews hate everyday. Thats the point of me posting those articles. Deal with that if you can?
Uh, you may want to rephrase that because it is exactly what the dems do. Uh, NONE of these guys have been elected to lead anything. Talking heads sure, hold an office. Sorry, no dice.
