Every black person must have proof if they believe racism exists. If it’s a recording demonize the recorder. If it’s a conservative looking into a democratic administrations scandal no proof is needed. To an average citizen this is hypocrisy. Conservative commentators are real hypocrites. Proof needed for racism but none for Benghazi. Foolish conservative and lying cheating progressive liberals.

I never hear any republican talk about big government before 2008 who? Which pundit ? It was not An issue. Bush was president everything was ok no one criticized him on how much government spending back then. Conservatism is too political the ideology is not consistent.

Quite a jump there, from a half-white President to the browning of America.

Oh, pretty much all the conservatives said that very thing. Some of the Republicans did too.

More like the worst government ever since a Chicago Politician became president.

It has nothing to do with race.

One thing I think everyone can agree on … Thompson is clearly a racist and apparently proud of it …

obvious you are the one who knows little about people who are different from you, like the people here for instance … the browning of America ??? good lord are you really that silly ?

I’d bet there is more diversity of skin color here than at the daily Kos for instance …

I realize that most of you know little about people who are different than you. It appalled you to think that someone thinks differently than you. The browning of America frightens you. You try your best to shout your minority conservative ideology and get upset because people won’t accept ideas. I understand that the blogosphere is your closest thing to reality in wich you have power. Ok good day carry on.

If you ever listen to “black” radio, especially those on the AM band, around election times, this is normal rhetoric for them.

It isn’t just Wright and Farrakhan who preach about “white devils.” In “the community,” all functions without mixed audiences reinforce the same attitude. There is no dissent to speak of. Most who try are shamed or shouted down or shunned, the few who are tolerated are respected people who don’t aggressively dispute the meme, but refuse to accept it.

This cultural indoctrination serves to keep the power in the community where it is, the Democratic politicians and the clergy. Ironically, those who rail most vehemently against the status quo in society are the most anxious and determined to maintain it in the black community.

“Now all of a sudden, government is the worst thing in the world since a black man became President.”

No, stupid. It’s because the current government IS the worst thing in the world. The president, who happens to be black, is incompetent.

How could he forget that “hate radio” was born in the 1990s, when some white people had the nerve to broadcast their criticism of the pasty-white Southern boy who was president. Democrats were constantly outraged at those nasty “Clinton-haters.” The same Democrats now claim that the only conceivable reason why anyone would ever criticize the radical, destructive, mendacious narcissist in the White House is race. Go figure.

Thompson is from a district that is 64% black, the only MS district that is majority black, and a district that has elected a Republican once since 1875. He needn’t worry about angering constituents.

Progressive devaluation of capital and labor on unprecedented terms. The uniform normalization of abortion/murder of millions of Americans annually. No, government is not the problem, it is the “final solution”.

The problem seems to have a simple enough answer: only call Obama things GWB was called by Democrats, and preferably by black Democrats. That shouldn’t limit us much.

This was what I personally found most surprising about the 2008 election.

From US history I think we all know that a nobody with no accomplishments, no demonstrated abilities, no resume to speak of, and who gives boring, content-free speeches can be elected President. So that wasn’t a surprise.

What was a surprise was finding out that such a large chunk of the electorate is so blatantly, corrosively, and apparently irredeemably racist. I refer to my fellow Americans who happen to be officially “black”. I genuinely hadn’t realized just how profound the problem is.

Silly me.

But at least it’s no longer a surprise.
