During the election I met a young black man who had just voted and I asked him a few questions.
“Was he aware of triple down economics”?
“What’s that”? So, I explained what it was.
After anwering him, He said, ” You mean I could loose my job”?
Question number 2…
” Do you support abortion”? ” How about partial birth abortion”?
He knew what abortion was all about and he was against abortion.
When I explained to him what partial birth abortion was , he was shocked.

At the end of our conversation, or q and a, I held his arm and said,
” I think you voted because of the color of the man’s skin without knowing the issues”.
He was shocked.

My question to many…. how many people voted for Obama because of the color of his skin unaware of the issues.

Well, she’s still your mom. It would be difficult to convince “moms” but I think it’s worth a try.

yet another double-standard….

During the WH Press Dinner Obama joked that Michael Steele was “in the House… or as he would say ‘Hizzy’… ”

Reverse those roles and one might imagine, don’t have to imagine long as we’ve seen it for real, how the MSM would go NUTS! If a BLACK CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN (yes, Trolls/Mobies - there are some - I know some of them) were to use that “Hizzy” line suggesting that Obama was URBAN…. the mumbles of UNCLE TOM, sell out, stooge, etc, would NEVER cease and they’d go on about how “offensive” and “Racially insensitive” (not PC)….. That BLACK CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN is “NOT BLACK ENOUGH” for them, we heard a little of that out of some Democrats (shades of Jackson, ‘too black’ BS…. Jackson, was/is too Socialist AS IS OBAMA) during the Primaries.

But it is NEVER Racist/Racism when Blacks vote for CONVICTED CRIMINALS like Marion Berry in DC over any other “white” person…. or all those votes in Louisiana or Detroit or….. on and on and on…..

Whether it is PC to speak of it or not, some people MAY FINALLY be waking up to all the Race Baiting and seeing the Real Racism…. and that ISSUES (not Race, Class, Sex) must be the focus of ANY Election! Yet, far too many will still slumber - ObamaZombies.

Insisting that one must identify with the Race that “appears” to be dominant (and that can go either way) denies the other Race and is JUST NOT FACTUAL (but often “PC” and just plain easier for peoples delicate sensibilities). There will be plenty that will insist on RACE-BAITING further and declare Mulatto as being “RACIST” … you know, the usual PC way to avoid facts and allow them to live in their - something has to fit in this or that “Box” mentality.

There are MANY Mulatto Americans and the RESPECT of/for both of their Parents should be recognized.

And I will remind everyone again as I did all through the Election - It is about the CONTENT OF ONES CHARACTER. And those of us that paid attention understood this THUG character from his ACTIONS over his rhetoric…. 2008 Election Issues recap [with links]

but since everyone had to insist on the “Blackness”…. and SOME, as this Diary points out, still do…..

“But a wise man once said that we should judge people not by the color of their skin, but by the content of …”
from the LetFreedomRing Org’s NeverFindOut Project: “Not This Time” Ad

whites split 50-50 on Obama, black were in the area of 99 percent for Obama. Now which side voted with race in their minds? I can even even see why a black person would do this, I really can. But it a white ever admitted to voting for a someone “because they were white” they would be branded a racist by libs and conserves alike.

also, I spend a lot of time with the military and almost every Obama sticker on the bases I frequent are from black military families. I don’t know what that says, I guess it gives some insight into people’s priorities and how they rank.

Did you think you’d get this kind of traffic??

Your welcome… or my apologies… whichever you deem appropriate lol but I am very happy you put this Diary forth and an HONEST discussion could ensue.

because a friend of his who is a black surgeon had no one to “look up to” and since he was unhappy with McCain he felt he could help his friend…..that my friends is how WE ended up with Obama…..it is a sick day in America when people are voting for color and nothing else….I do believe that people like my new boss will have felt they have done their civiic duty and will have suffered so greatly with taxes etc by 2012 that they will vote their conscience instead!

In that same vein he is as are other Obama voters I know prepared to give the House back to the Republicans in 2010 to have divided government once again! They seem to see the value in a government that does NOTHING

Whoever has his enemy at his mercy &
does not destroy him is his own enemy

Yea, I feel for those here that have been maligned by race baiting and PC. I’ve had posts lambasted, here and elsewhere, just because I used the phrase “black president”. In some circles I just simply stay quite about Mr. O’ because the crowd is just salivating for some conservative to mention anything that can be construed as racist. And believe me, the possibilities are plethoric!

I just keep pushing on serving the Lord, who is bigger than all this junk and is capable of redeeming our nation. BTW, I played football at ECU in the late eighties with a Tony Cruz from FL, you wouldn’t happen to be him?

your mother would say if you came in wearing a Palin T-shirt….

She would probably have a look of disgust as you say:

But she is female!!

that will undoubtedly be what will come next…. as Obama pushes forward with the usual Democrat divisiveness and Identity Politics… I won’t repeat all my comments but refer to Moe’s Diary about SCOTUS where I made these: first Hispanic on SCOTUS? related comments.
