MSNBC Analyst Melissa Harris-Perry compared Governor Jane Brewer to a white segregationist who talked down to kids?
As always with MSNBC, it's all race, all the time, 24/7.The other day Barack Obama landed in Arizona, and Governor Jane Brewer was there to meet him. They exchanged greetings-and then had a momentary exchange on the immigration issue and what Jane wrote about Obama in her book which Obama took exception to. Nobody in their right mind would have thought much of a governor and a president of two opposing political parties having a momentary exchange on an issue. The media blew it up to be more then what it really was of course, because it was Obama who was involved. However, one has to look at the equation involved through the eyes of progressives in the media. White Female Republican Governor + Black Male Democratic President = Another opportunity to make a non issue into a racial one by the racial antagonists over at MSNBC.
So Governor Jane Brewer must be some sort of an iconic civil rights era throwback segregationist, because she shook her finger in a heated exchange with Obama? If Governor Brewer was a Democrat, this wouldn't even have been covered by the media nor discussed as a racial issue on MSNBC. How can race relations in this country ever improve when progressives keep using race in order to stir up the pot in regards to political issues? The problem with race rests in the lap of people such as Melissa-Harris Perry. People like her branded Governor Brewer as a racist simply, because she tried to protect her state from being overrun by illegal aliens. I will repeat what I have always said about MSNBC. They barely have any viewers for a reason, and America is better off because of it. If you thought the race card was played in 2008 by the left, buckle up, because you haven't seen nothing yet in this election year. It's just beginning. FYI: The black race hustler Al Sharpton is still gainfully employed with MSNBC. I just thought I would share that.

You answered my last post with so much garbage I just said I wont even try to respond to your craziness. You did say one thing though that caught my attention. You said obama may have made it possible that no other black person will ever be president again. I think what your saying is republicans wont vote for a black person for president. You see I was right about herb cain. They got rid of him before the primary started.
White democrats voted obama in office. They had no problem voting for a black man. White republicans did not vote for obama because he is black. You are a black republican. You did not vote for obama. As long as you are a republican you will only be allowed to vote for white men or a white woman.
Gerald T.
Politically, ALL conservatives are related to the segregationalists.
Who do you think were opposing the Civil Rights Act of '64? The liberals?!?
I have tried to watch both fox news and msnbc and am scared to think what America may become. Both seem to have the fear mongering down pat. I have chosen to turn off my television since.
I will say this, I understand Jan Brewer trying to protect Arizona's borders, but as a Hispanic I do not want to be profiled because of the color of my skin. If I have to prove I am legal, then where is my freedom?
Arizona's slogan should be, "we put the 'panic' in Hispanic".
I cant stand Pres Obama not because he is doing a bad job but because who would have wanted to be Pres after the worst Pres in history Mr Bush.But the desrespect that this Pres has to put up with is intolerable.They would show more respect to the dog catcher than to this Pres.What ever happened to you may not like the person that is in office but you respect the position of President.No two bit Gov would have ever showed this much disdain for the office.Even if Jimmy Carter were still President they would have never pointed their finger in any other Pres face and showed that in their eyes he is beneath a shoe shine man.
I'm a black person and I would like to see Mitt Romney as the next President not that I think Pres Obama has done a bad job simply because their is alot of anger and disdain and just disrespect to this Pres and the position he represents.I honestly dont believe America or should I say White people can handle another four years with Halfbreed Black man as Pres I feel with all the anger that is going around they will do something violent to this Pres setting off a chain reaction that leads to a all out race war.
To Gerald T-You said that white Republicans did not vote for Barack Obama because he's black. The reason why white Republicans did not vote for Obama was because he he's a Democrat, not because he is black.
Let me ask you something: Please explain who voted for Rep. Allen West, a black man from Florida who is a Republican? Are you sure it was blacks? Because most blacks are in favor of the Democratic party, whom opposed for a long time for any sorts of civil rights.
Here are a couple of others:
* Gary Franks, former U.S. Representative from Connecticut.
* Joe Rogers, former Lieutenant Governor of Colorado.
There is a long list, and I am not going to print them all out.
Let me remind you something: whenever someone like you plays the race card, you are acting racist!
Last I checked most of white America are getting tired of the issue of race. Most of white America want to move forward. Why do most people have this mentality that we are still living in the past and blacks and minorities are still being oppressed by "whitey"?
It seems like MSNBC news ratings are really sagging and they have to bring up the topic of race. What I found so funny is how they were so quick to defend and make excuses for Obama when the Rev. Jeremiah Wright controversy came out.
When Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer signed a bill to crack down on illegal immigration, the Obama administration sued the state because of civil rights violation. So, how come Obama was first in favor of cracking down on illegal immigration but suddenly becomes in favor for them?
Rafor;"Politically, ALL conservatives are related to the segregationalists. Who do you think were opposing the Civil Rights Act of '64? The liberals?!?".
Whoaaa Rafor... Conservatives have a "proper rule of spin." When the conversation is "racism", the rule states; "Political party should trump ideology." Therefore, the Democrat (the 1860-1960 party) is the party of racist.
However, when the conversation is about social issues, (religion, sexuality, education, the military, abortion, etc...), the rule states; "Ideology shall trump political party." Therefore, you are a "true conservative" only if you believe what we believe."
Gerald, I can't help it that your comprehension skills are lacking. I try not to over complicate what I say, because I know many progressive can't go beyond emotional thinking.
"White democrats voted obama in office. They had no problem voting for a black man. White republicans did not vote for obama because he is black. You are a black republican. You did not vote for obama. As long as you are a republican you will only be allowed to vote for white men or a white woman. "
It was white Republicans not Democrats who supported Herman Cain and elevated him to the top tier. It was white republican mainly conservatives who voted for and elected Allen West, Tim Scott, Marco Rubio and Nikki Halley. None of the people that I mentioned are white Gerald. As for Herman Cain, you are being deceptive, but I wouldn't expect anything less from a progressive. Cain is out of the race, but so is Michelle Bachmann, Rick Perry, Jon Huntsman, Gary Johnson and Tim Pawlenty and they are all "WHITE" Gerald. So once again,t the race card can't be applied to this. 10 started and now it's down to 4 candidates.
Gerald "You did not vote for obama. As long as you are a republican you will only be allowed to vote for white men or a white woman. "
Here's an idea, how about voting for the person who best represents what you believe in and stand for? So you are admitting that the only real reason for a black person to vote for Obama is simply because of "the color of the man's skin", right? That's interesting you would say that. So in essence, Obama was the affirmative action candidate right Gerald?
Rafor "Politically, ALL conservatives are related to the segregationalists."
Of really, so I am related to segregationists? By all means do tell Rafor how that is so. Where is my relation? I am a paleoconservative, so please explain if you can. This should be fun.
Rafor "Who do you think were opposing the Civil Rights Act of '64? The liberals?!?"
I don't know Rafor, maybe you can name them for me and the party affiliation there were apart of. I do know that it's progressives who are racially smearing black conservatives just because they exercise individual thinking and aren't subjective to black or white progressive group think.
anon "I cant stand Pres Obama not because he is doing a bad job but because who would have wanted to be Pres after the worst Pres in history Mr Bush."
I wasn't a huge fan of Bush either BUT Bush was light years better then the disaster known as Barack Hussein Obama. He's the only president to have taken Jimmy Carter out of the dog house as being the worst president ever elected. Under Bush people actually had jobs!! Gas was $1.79 the last day of Bush's administration. I haven't seen gas prices south of $3.20 for over 3 years now. Groceries were actually affordable when Bush was in office, imagine that. I would take the Bush days any day in a freaking heart beat over the crap I and others who actually have a clue are being subjected to right now.
Generational embedded brainwashing will do that. I knew even if Obama was elected progressives weren't going to finally let go of the race card. The only way that they can stay remotely relevant is to divide people so that they can present themselves as the cure. What happened to Jane Brewer is case positive. If anyone says anything or makes what is perceived as a wrong gesture towards Obama, they are automatically going to make it a racial issue if the person is white and is either conservative or a republican. It never fails and it never will.
CB;"Under Bush people actually had jobs!! Gas was $1.79 the last day of Bush's administration. I haven't seen gas prices south of $3.20 for over 3 years now. Groceries were actually affordable when Bush was in office, imagine that".
Conservative/Republican hacking will get you no where Tyrone...
The facts, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, shows that during a two year period (Jan. 2008-Feb. 2010) the economy lost about 8 million jobs.As I said before, the economy was bleeding jobs during this period. It was President Obama's Stimulus Plan (band-aid) that stopped the bleeding.
Partisan politics combined with "SOME" who harbor covert hatred of a Black president is what prevents Republicans from admitting that the stimulus worked in that respect. Of course Tyrone, you follow the partisan politics "Socialist Obama intentionally destroying America" fantasy clan.
CB;"Gas was $1.79 the last day of Bush's administration".
Really? In June of 2008 gas was $4.10!. Would you like to credit that to Bush also???
The president of the United States cannot control the price of gasoline. Whoever told you that nonsense is lying to you!
Look Tyrone, I'm not saying that you should support, or even like President Obama or his policies. What I am saying is many Republicans, and yourself, lack abject fairness. Check your archives and see if I ever stated or even implied that Bush was responsible for high gas prices.
President Obama never said that the stimulus alone would completely bring the country back to prosperity. As reported time after time again, and even before President Obama took office the goal of the stimulus was saving or creating 2.5 million jobs. He also knew that the economy was going to get worse and it would take time for the stimulus to work.
In my opinion it's not the presidents policies, per-se', that creates jobs, or is responsible for job losses. I believe there is a myriad of factors, including the "randomness" of economic cycles. Frankly, it would be totally ludicrous to claim that Bush was solely responsible for the millions of jobs lost during his last year in office. However, I do fault him for doing nothing about it!
Conversely, I credit President Obama for his vision for acting with the stimulus and the auto bailout which prevented massive jobs losses and saved jobs.
Yet I totally and completely disagreed, and was angered with him over the bank bailouts. Banks manufacture, build, and produce nothing!!! Hell, what good is a bank if people don't have jobs earning money to save to, money to pay back if they borrow from, or buy from the businesses who use the bank if the business need financial support? If people don't have "JOBS" what good is the bank?
p allen "The facts, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, shows that during a two year period (Jan. 2008-Feb. 2010) the economy lost about 8 million jobs.As I said before, the economy was bleeding jobs during this period.

Where are your facts again?
US News reported that the unemployment rate "hit" 7.6%" back in January of 2009 the month Obama was sworn in
US News and World Reports reported "Employers slashed their payrolls by 598,000 jobs in January, marking not only the biggest monthly cut since the recession began in December 2007, but the biggest since 1974, the Labor Department reported today. The unemployment rate rocketed to a more than 16-year high of 7.6 percent from 7.2 percent in December." So when has the unemployment rate ever recessed back below 8% allen? Even under the last full month of the Bush administration, the unemployment rate was 7.2%
Here's the monthly unemployment rate from January 2003 thru June of 2008 from the Department of Labor
Notice that the highest unemployment percentage was in June of 2003, when it hit 6.3%, something that hasn't even come anywhere near happening under this administration. Oh, the lowest the unemployment rate went was 4.4% in March of 2007. You can sit down now allen.
This comment has been removed by the author.
Ah the good old days under George Bush which nobody has ever experienced under Obama and never will See allen, it's simple. The reason why the economy is slugging along is because PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE THE DISPOSABLE INCOME TO SPEND in the economy because it is all GOING TOWARDS GASOLINE and paying higher prices for goods because of the cost truckers have to pay for diesel.
Hm what are you smoking when was gas ever $1.79 a gallon under Mr Bush.Yea unemplyoment is so bad because of the disater that Mr Bush left Pres Obama with the guy had 3 years.I Mr Bush had 8 years to destroy this country I guess Pres Obama is supposed to undo 8 years of Mr Bushes damage in just 3 years ain't gonna happen.
shwn "Hm what are you smoking when was gas ever $1.79 a gallon under Mr Bush.Yea unemplyoment is so bad because of the disater that Mr Bush left Pres Obama with the guy had 3 years.I Mr Bush had 8 years to destroy this country I guess Pres Obama is supposed to undo 8 years of Mr Bushes damage in just 3 years ain't gonna happen"
The smoking is all yours shwn. I just rather use facts to back up what I say. Bush inherited an economy that was in recession right after the dot com bubble burst in April of 2000 on top of that he had to deal with 911 which happened 5 months latter, and the country got through both of them. The unemployment numbers are from the labor department, so take it up with them. The economy was ar full employment for most of Bush's presidency, sorry that the truth sucks for you shwn. That is why Bush was re elected, because he has a record on which he could point to success. Obama on the other hand can't. Why should Obama get a second term, when there has been no economic success in the first? It doesn't make any sense.
The country had to drink Obama's poison for 3 years, and you are complaining saying that his poison hasn't had enough time to work? lol
CB;"Where are your facts again?".
What do you mean "where are the facts?" I gave you the link to the Bureau of Labor Stats. Didn't you look up the statistics? Better still, aren't we basically saying the same thing?
THE ECONOMY WAS BLEEDING JOBS BETWEEN JAN. 2008 and FEB. 2010!!! JANUARY 2009 IS WITHIN THAT TIME FRAME! So, what in the hell are you talking about Tyrone?
From the article "YOU" linked to:
"The job market is simply continuing to deteriorate".
and-
"As the recession has deepened, job losses have become increasingly broad--now touching nearly all sectors of the economy. Manufacturing is bleeding jobs--the sector lost 207,000 jobs in January".
and-
"There is not much good news to report. "We expect labor market conditions to remain dreadful for many months to come, which will reinforce the decline in consumer spending that is occurring for other reasons as well," says Joshua Shapiro, chief U.S. economist at MFR.".
and, your linked article even quotes what I told you from the outset-
"Manufacturing is bleeding jobs".
Are you trying to say that President Obama is responsible for the recession and all the jobs that were lost? Have you gone stark raving mad? The president inherited the big mess, and, in my opinion and the opinion of most Americans, thus far he has "stopped the bleeding." By your own admission President Obama's "Stimulus band-aid" worked!
Again I must ask...what in the hell are you trying to prove? The economy began to tank while Bush was in the White House. Bush and the Republicans hurried to bail-out the financial institutions. You don't remember the "SOCIALIST" Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008? How about the "SOCIALIST" Troubled Asset Relief Program? Unfortunately President Obama kept the bank bail-outs rolling, which is something I wish he hadn't done.
Gerald T is unhinged.
When Frank Robinson became the first black man to manage an MLB team, and people were crowing that baseball was over its racism, a wag observed that no, MLB will show it is over racism not when it hires the first black manager, but when that first manager is fired.
Same with Obama. We will show we are "over racism" when we fire Obama's incompetent ass, not because he's black, but because he has been a horrible, Carteresque failure.
CB;"Bush inherited an economy that was in recession right after the dot com bubble burst in April of 2000 on top of that he had to deal with 911 which happened 5 months".
Oh yeah... that's right! I completely forgot about the huge economic crash of 1999! Two Thousand zero, zero party over, oops outta' time!
Totally forgot about that "huge" deficit the Clinton administration left poor ole' G.W.! Completely forgot about the 200,000 jobs lost the month Bush was sworn in. Don't even mention the 1999 near crash of the stock market, the financial sector meltdown and home foreclosures.
There's only one problem with your comparative analysis Tyrone. NO SUCH CATASTROPHE HAD OCCURRED WHEN BUSH CAME INTO OFFICE!
When Bush was sworn in the unemployment rate was 4.2.
1999 was a RECORD YEAR for the stock market, as the 90's was the best decade for the Dow in history!.
CB;"The economy was ar full employment for most of Bush's presidency, sorry that the truth sucks for you shwn. That is why Bush was re elected, because he has a record on which he could point to success".
You've spun that line so bad, you've got to be dizzy!! You might want to sit down...
You've said that the economy was doing fine during the Bush years. If it were doing well, why would it have been an issue? Bush focused his campaign on national security and the Iraq war. I don't think there was one attack ad citing the growing deficits. And if memory serves me correctly, it was the Kerry campaign that focused more on the economy, jobs and health care.
From USA Today, 10/13/2004.
"When Bush took office, the Congressional Budget Office projected a 10-year $5.6 trillion surplus. CBO now predicts more than $2 trillion of red ink from 2005-2014. The deficit for fiscal 2004, which ended Sept. 30, was $415 billion".
Silverfiddle;"When Frank Robinson became the first black man to manage an MLB team, and people were crowing that baseball was over its racism, a wag observed that no, MLB will show it is over racism not when it hires the first black manager, but when that first manager is fired.
Same with Obama. We will show we are "over racism" when we fire Obama's incompetent ass, not because he's black, but because he has been a horrible, Carteresque failure".
That statement clearly shows how some on the right will attempt to cloud, misrepresent, distort, defile and warp the achievements of Blacks in American society.
Silver, I'd bet that you have no idea how callous, insensitive, IGNORANT and otherwise ill-informed your correlation of Robinson and President Obama is...do you? I'll enlighten you...
Frank Robinson became the first black baseball manager in 1975 with the Cleveland Indians. He was fired in 1977. In 1981 he was hired by the San Francisco Giants in 1981, and fired in 1984.
You might not want to remember that on April 6, 1987, "Nightline" anchor Ted Koppel interviewed Al Campanis, then the general manager of the Los Angeles Dodgers, and a one-time teammate of Jackie Robinson. Campanis said this;
"It's just that they may not have some of the necessities to be, let's say, a field manager, or, perhaps, a general manager. I know that they have wanted to manage, and many of them haven't managed. But they are outstanding athletes, very God-gifted and wonderful people".
Frank Robinson had been hired and fired "TWICE" when Campanis made that idiot statement. Moreover, Campanis was not some side-line baseball pundit. He was a GENERAL MANAGER! He was in the direct employ of the owner of one of the most famed baseball organizations in the history of the game.
A General Manager has consummate powers over a MLB team. The job calls for him to interact with other GM's and owners. Up until the moment Campanis made his statement on national television, do you really believe that he had not made and discussed such views with other GM's? Of course he had! Otherwise he wouldn't have been so callous and open with Ted Koppel!!
So your "baseball analogy" is nothing less than smoke screen for your ignorance. I don't know you, therefore I can't call you a racist. But your assertion shows that you haven't got a clue what actual racism looks like.
As far as President Obama being a "Carteresque failure", that's nothing more than a right-wing talking point. It's fine that you don't like President Obama. It's your right and your opinion. Just don't attempt to take a historic situation of racial nature, and attempt to cover-up or defend those who clearly have their hatred of the president based on his race.
>>>Of really, so I am related to segregationists? By all means do tell Rafor how that is so. Where is my relation? I am a paleoconservative, so please explain if you can. This should be fun.<<<
Ever talk to a southern paleoconservative over the past 100 years, Tyrone? Well, thankfully, I have one who lives around the corner from me. He grew up in Mobile, Alabama. Only a few months ago we were noting the 150th anniversary of the start of the Civil War, or as he called it, “The War of Northern Aggression.” Eventually he started telling me how the vast majority of blacks in the South were comfortable with the way it was. They were taken care of by their white owners. They were being fed, sheltered, protected, and educated in good schools, he said. … Y’know, it all sounded so wonderful!!!
Paleoconservatives are strong believers in transcendent order and ancient institutions -- "old church and old right," as Pat Buchanon proudly stated -- and are very OK with what Christian ministers and theologians have been teaching in this country for ages: Whites were the Chosen people, Blacks were cursed to be servants, and God wanted it this way. … Please let this sink in for a little bit, Tyrone.
You can call the parties whatever you want, and we’ve had different names for the major ones that have occupied the White House over the years: Federalist, Democratic-Republican, National Republican, Democratic, Whig, Rebublican.
But conservative ideology is conservative ideology and liberal ideology is liberal ideology. The conservatives supported slavery. The conservatives supported Jim Crow. Go to any large gathering or convention of conservatives today, and the overwhelming majority of them will be white conservatives. What -- you think you’re one of the few black guys who are intelligent and “get it?” And all the other blacks are just stupid? How paleoconservative of you!
Lincoln in 1860 was a liberal. And he was a Republican. He wanted to give blacks full voting rights in 1864 and got shot for it. … Lincoln in 2012 would still be a liberal. But he wouldn’t be a Republican – not if he were planning to run for any office.
Tyrone, you are so confused! I feel sorry for you!
That photo of Brewer jamming her finger into Obama's face could be used as the updated cover of Stetson Kennedy's "Jim Crow Guide," which offered these simple rules that Blacks were supposed to observe in conversing with Whites:
-- Never assert or even intimate that a White person is lying.
-- Never impute dishonorable intentions to a White person.
-- Never suggest that a White person is from an inferior class.
-- Never lay claim to, or overly demonstrate, superior knowledge or intelligence.
-- Never curse a White person.
-- Never laugh derisively at a White person.
-- Never comment upon the appearance of a White female.
Old church, old right, indeed! Paleoconservatisim at its finest, Tyrone!
Alpha male I always vote for the person that I feel represents me and my views. I have voted for white candidates black candidates latino and american indian candidates. It just so happens that they are democrats. The difference between me and you is you vote for who you are told to vote for.
What you said silver fiddle is stupid. Racism in baseball is like racism in anything else. Baseball will be over racism when all the racist leave baseball.

To Anonymous-
I know I am not a racist. I dont discriminate against anyone. I dont look down on white people or any other race. I also know that not all white people are racist. I know this because I have some very close white friends. But I do know whites that claim they are not racist but they will do and say things that contradict the claim.

Good column today. Fine analogy.

PLEASE GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT BUSH HAD MORE POEPLE ON FOOD TAMPS ...JUST AS MORE WHITES ARE ON WELFARE..46%
anon "The difference between me and you is you vote for who you are told to vote for. "
Thank you for sharing your ignorance. It's very enlightening on your part. So who is telling me to vote for whom? Let's start with that question. This is where you are going to start speaking in double talking knowing that you don't have a logical answer to my question. Let me demonstrate how ignorant you are. People who know me and have read this blog know that I have never been a supporter of the GOP establishment. You really need to educate yourself on the subject matter which is me before you speak. So name the people who tell me who to vote for.
coedl "ver talk to a southern paleoconservative over the past 100 years, Tyrone? Well, thankfully, I have one who lives around the corner from me. He grew up in Mobile, Alabama."
Riddle me this, I am 39 years old. How can I have been around to speak to people 100 years ago? I'm just throwing that out there for hell of it. The facts that any palecon who lived 100 years ago, chances are that they are all 100% DEAD!! If you are trying to base the assumption that conservatives of 100 years ago are no different then today, that truly is your assumption and not based on fact or evidence. You ignored the fact when I said that I am a paleocon. You can't address that for some reason, why not. There are many paleocons who don't even live in the south, so your outdated stereotype of a modern day paleocon has failed you yet again. For the record, I have several close friends in Tennessee, Georgia and South Carolina who are white and are paleocons. Also, the Civil War ended 147 years ago. Let's try living in 2012. What you think you know about Paleocons is based in the past, when was the lat time you actually talked to one? When you get updated information relevant to today's time, then let's talk.

So I guess screaming in caps is suppose to make what you are saying accurate somehow? Let's try again, how about presenting evidence who what you are claiming. Obviously I have no problem presenting my evidence to collaborate what I believe, how about you try it.
shwn "BLACK REPUBLICANS ARE A JOKE I HAVE MORE RESPECT FOR HISPANIC REPUBLICANS THAN THESE BOOT LICKER BLACKS."
Once again, what is with the yelling in caps, you are coming off sounding like a loon shwn, then again keep it up, you are only exposing your insanity to the readers. So let's process what you said. You believe blacks are bootlickers if they are Republicans but Hispanics are not if they are also Republicans? I believe your tinfoil hat is cutting off the circulation to your brain shwn, what you said doesn't even make sense to a crackhead. Progressives claim to believe in and support diversity "up until people of diversity don't support their points of view". You just demonstrated my long held belief in progressives, thank you shwn.

Spare the croc tears shwn. I'm sure you condemn Harry Reid's comment when he said Obama doesn't have a NEGRO DIALECT unless he wants to have one right shwn. Step right up shwn. You're a fraud plain and simple. Spare you fake outrage for someone dumb enough to buy into it. I am learning Spanish. That was one of my New Year's resolutions. I've always wanted to learn a second language. If I immigrated to another country, I wouldn't be naive enough to think that I would be able to prosper in a country where English isn't the official language. I would either have to adapt to the language of the country I am in or I will wouldn't be able to succeed in that country.

Funny. People like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson claim that they have white friends. The "friends" they have are nothing more than progressive liberals who would kiss their butts on every racial issues while they go out and destroy any white person or persons reputation by falsely accusing them of racism.
CB;"People who know me and have read this blog know that I have never been a supporter of the GOP establishment".
Ohhhh please Tyrone... You claim you don't support the "GOP establishment." You've got to be kidding! You said you voted for John McCain. If that's not "support", you don't know what support is.
You claim don't support the establishment candidate, which appears to be Mitt Romney, thus you won't be voting for Romney in "ANY" (primary, caucus or general) election. However, if you do vote for Romney, in "ANY" election, and still claim you don't support him, the only obvious reason for you doing so is that you're following instruction, and you've been told who you should vote for.
It's crazy that a black writer has so many anti-black comments on various blog comments... and he leaves them there.

OK. Tyrone. I’ll. Try. Writing. Slower. So. You. Can. Understand.
Clearly I did not write that you should talk to a 100-year-old paleoconservative. I asked you if you’ve talked to one during the past 100 years because conservative ideals have not wavered much during that time. (Your response, of course, was hilarious: I’m very close friends with paleos from Georgia!!! That’d be like them saying, Yeah, but I have a friend who is Black!!! … HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.)
The paleocon neighbor I referenced to -- who told me that Jim Crow segregation didn’t adversely affect blacks -- grew up in the South. What a surprise! Paleoconservatism gets a good deal of its influence from the Old Right agrarian South. He like other modern-day Paleoconservatives -- like Pat Buchanan, Tom Tancredo, Ron Paul, (who were all born in the North, by the way) – typically wish to return to the good, old days and the traditional categories of gender, ethnicity, and race.
Like a Hermain Cain or Marco Rubio or Michelle Malkin or Michelle Bachmann or Alan Keyes -- even tho you all don’t fit the profile you’re clever enough to sneak over to the conservative side of the political fence because of the macho, tough-talking, gun-slinging image. As did Booker Washington, who, unlike W.E.B. Dubois, believed cooperation with wealthy whites was the only way to overcome pervasive racism (while he secretly funded litigation for civil rights cases on behalf of disenfranchised blacks).
Tyrone, you are very confused about who you are politically. No true conservative -- be it paleo, neo, crunchy, religious, or fiscal or whatever -- will ever truly support an intelligent, gay, black man such as yourself. …
Conservatism is ultimately and inherently too flawed, too full of hate, too ignorant of history, too narrow-minded to anticipate the future, particularly the 21st century. Conservatives use the small amounts of available active ethnic-minority conservatives to say, “See, we’re not bigots!”
Paleoconservatives can't/won’t acknowledge that race is the root of our nation’s problems. … At the end of the day, they want non-whites to know their place.
At the end of the day, you’ve sold yourself out.
Anon;"Funny. People like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson claim that they have white friends. The "friends" they have are nothing more than progressive liberals who would kiss their butts on every racial issues while they go out and destroy any white person or persons reputation by falsely accusing them of racism".
Funny. People like Rush Limbaugh and Newt Gingrich claim that they have Black friends. The "friends" they have are nothing more than right-wing conservatives who have Blacks kiss their butts on every racial issues while they go out and protect any white person or persons reputation by not accusing them of racism.
See how easy the bold print turns your "right-wing" talking point, into a "left-wing" talking point! So you might ask, who's right? You wrote the nonsense, thus, you must believe that you are right. I simply turned the accusations back at you.
In this case, and in my opinion, the "truth" is relative. You would never believe that black people would metaphorically kiss Limbaugh's ass. Whereas, I envision conservative blacks doing it all the time (remember Michael Steele's apology?).
The bottom line is that, on this subject, nether scenario came claim to be absolute truth. It all depends on which side of the fence you're on.
glesxk;"No true conservative -- be it paleo, neo, crunchy, religious, or fiscal or whatever -- will ever truly support an intelligent, gay, black man such as yourself".
An intelligent, gay, black man? I've known Tyrone, via this blog, for nearly 5 years. I've never thought that he was an "intelligent black man." lol Just kidding, just kidding.
GAY??? You might want to clarify Tyrone...
CB;"You ignored the fact when I said that I am a paleocon. You can't address that for some reason, why not".
Tyrone, you constantly ignore stated facts! Such as you did concerning my post about the "Cracker Country" being a rural area, so named by the people who inhabit the area.
glesxk;"Like a Hermain Cain or Marco Rubio or Michelle Malkin or Michelle Bachmann or Alan Keyes -- even tho you all don’t fit the profile you’re clever enough to sneak over to the conservative side of the political fence because of the macho, tough-talking, gun-slinging image".
That is soooooooo TRUE! You hit the nail on the head, There's only on problem...you'll never convince Keyes, Cain, Malkin etc... that it's true. The modern conservative still has a "well cloaked" glass ceiling in place. Had Cain stayed in the GOP race until actual voting began, he would have realized his limits in the GOP.
Staunch conservative, Alan Keyes, will "never" get it. He's in total denial with his political aspirations. Keyes has been a political activist, diplomat, and multiple time candidate for public office, a PhD. Harvard grad, an Assistant Secretary in the State Department and a contributing foreign policy maker.
Keyes has ran in the GOP presidential primary 3 times. His third attempt in 2008 was the "worse" showing of the three! Yet nearly half of GOP voters claim they're not satisfied with Mitt Romney, who appears to be the 2012 GOP nominee. (BTW, Romney, the known "flip-flopper" on almost every GOP issue, "CLOBBERED" Keyes's vote total in 2008 by more than 4 1/2 million votes!!!)
Blacks, women and other minorities simply are unaware (or ignore) the glass ceiling in GOP politics. Guarantee it won't be broken soon.
