So BO opens up his 2nd term by appointing John Kerry, Chuck Hagle & John Brennan to cabinet posts.... ....meanwhile, the female governor of SC (a Republican & the child of legal immigrants) appoints a black man to fill the state's open Senate seat...
Maybe because the white male Repukes couldn't abide by a black woman as Secretary of State and had to conjure up a phony reason to sink her confirmation. Your memory sure is short.
A black woman as Secretary of State? Uhhhhmmmm? Just who had the first black woman as Secretary of State or are you trying to rewrite history again?
Yes, but if Teddy made a mistake, he will admit it just like he always say he does. But then maybe that is the part of history that needs to be rewritten, you think?
BTW, I guess maybe because the white male (and female) Dempukes couldn't abide by a black woman as Secretary of State. Here are the names of those who voted against Condoleezza Rice. There are a couple very interesting names there. http://www.senate.gov/legislative/L...ote_cfm.cfm?congress=109&session=1&vote=00002 And an interesting commentary on the subject; http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6862922/ns/politics/t/rice-sworn-secretary-state/#.UOsTIHfhd8E
Those racist bastards! They probably voted against Dr. Rice only because she's "black". I despise bigots like them.
Lets see, both black women, both named Rice, but one difference... What could that possibly be? Hum? Oh yeah, a black woman that is willing to sell out her own racial heritage is fine with the Righties but a black woman that refuses to help make black women second class citizens, now that they can't abide. Just like there are middle class shills for the wealthy, there are people of color willing to crawl into bed with the white plutocrats that screw people of color, it doesn't prove that Righties are any less bigoted. Minority voter suppression tells us where the Righties are really coming from today more than one sellout woman of color ever says.
Lets see, both black women, both named Rice, but one difference... What could that possibly be? Hum? Oh! Yeah! Commentary by a bigoted racist. My God bless you, Teddy, but you are really sick!
Yeah, one is a smart, capable leader while the other was willing to parade herself around the nation telling the lies BO asked her to tell (perhaps in the hope he would try to place her in a higher-level job?).
Ahhh the Old Uncle Tom card gets played. Or is it called something else when it is a woman who is being vilified? Aunt Something? Jemima doesn't seem right. Although I do like me some pancakes, bro. BTW...did you hear that RGIII is a Cornball Brother? Yeah, can't trust him. Who knows what he is up to being all aticuhlate and sheet.
The left always plays the Uncle Tom card on a Conservative black person. I guess they didn't know how to fight Nikki Haley so they made up stories about her having an affair...
Just like you people are "uncle Toms" for the wealth class, Condi served her purpose as a useful idiot. How is she doing today? You don't hear much about her political ambitions anymore do you? If she was so highly regarded by the Right, where is she today? One and and done as the Cons move further and further to the Right. Let us never forget the very open voter suppression of minorities we just witnessed. All Condi did was serve a useful purpose and probably regrets it. Admit it.
As enlightened as you sometimes seem, at times I wonder if you even know any minorities. If you do, and one happens to be a conservative, try that Uncle Tom stuff on them some day. Please report back. And where has Condi Rice been? I am not surprised that you missed the Republican convention but I thought you would at least read about it somewhere. She didn't sound like she regretted being a Republican to me. And the audience ate it up. She also sounded like someone who could be throwing her name in for 2016.
Having muddled through this thread all I can say is that the Republican party needs to do more than appoint or nominate a "negro" here and there. When they do why should they tout it?
You disappoint me here, Clembo. 90% of the "Negro" votes Democratic. Why shouldn't the have 90% of the "Negros" elected to office? Without even checking, I will give you odds, the do not have even close to that number. And, BTW, I will also bet the the Democrats utter most of the "Uncle Tom"'s "Aunt Jemima"'s.
