Yes US corporations already pay pretty much the highest tax rates on the planet those rates need to be drastically cut. Corporate welfare is a term used by class warriors a real conservative should find the term offensive. |

Then they were never conservatives in the first place. |

Whites better learn the game (again) damn quickly. |

This makes me want to puke. Blacks are going to vote for a Marxist, anti-American, terrorist sympathizer just because he is black? |
|
the great irony.. o(b/s)ama is as much white as black (1/2 last time i checked).. second irony.. yes. most blacks will vote for o(b/s)ama.. third irony.. think only blacks are racists? watch o(b/s)ama get his azz handed to him in NOV because, whites, latinos, orientals, indians (folks from india) will NOT vote for a black candidate.. and this is racists too... but the bottom line and subtle thing is its not really a skin thing.. its an outlook of looking at northern european culture as the enemy of the the world, you find it rampant in inner city politics, chicago, atlanta where is acceptable and EXPECTED to discriminate against white folks because their culture is EVIL.. and capitalism, free markets are EVIL.. they take advantage of black folks, and so they also embrace socialist/communist ideals... and a very large number of folks come to this country as immigrants dont want to live in a socialist country.. had an amazing conversation with a bunch of indians that work for my company for instance.. they think o(b/s)ama is a idiot empty suit sock-puppet... |

I'm not at all surprised. Those of you who have never run up against the tribalism and skin hue-driven loyalties among our black citizens are ignorant of some of the dynamics of this election.
This is not a slam either against my fellow posters or my fellow black citizens. I'm not being racist...simply factual. I suspect that >95% of all or our black citizens will vote for BHO regardless of their party affiliation, their economic status, their religion or faith, or whether or not they call themselves conservative or liberal. No factor trumps race. This bloc of folks is behind Obama. Trust me...the Obama camp knows this very well. It is a slam dunk for them. |
|
No, nothing would make me think that. |
|
|
Since 90% of them always vote Democrat anyway, it's not at all a stretch that half of the remaining 10% would see race as the deciding factor. I wonder why 95% of whites won't vote for McCain though. |
|
|
Sorry, whites are FAR more likely to vote for another "tribe" as long as they believe they have close to the same idealistic viewpoints. Almost any Black American in office is proof of that if there is not a majority of Black voters in the district, State, or county. Factually, there cannot be any arguement due to the overall percentage of Black Americans VS any other race. [12% or so] |

He doesn't invoke happy feelings of change. |

Yup white republicans fell all over themselves because he was "conservative" a sports figure. He was never an intellectual or moral heavyweight, in fact he had quite a few family values strikes against him. He used the republican party and they used him, welcome to politics. His true colors, no pun intended, are showing. |

It's called 'White Guilt'. |
|

That speech was just agitprop. This was obvious at the time to any casual observer. That same observer would have noticed all the DRVN and NLF flags that King's supporters carried later. |
|
|
This doesn't surprise me, for a completely different reason.
The party leadership, the people really in the know, have come to the conclusion that conservatism as we have known it is dead. The last few years killed it, and it'll have to rise from the ashes in another form. I see a lot of different paths from that conclusion being explored, but that's what I'm seeing. |
|
You should be surprised, he was one of the good guys. |
|

He could have had a future within the party, instead he chose to jump the shark.

The pressure to follow the heard in the black community is immense, folks. Cornell West has stated publicly that Condoleeza Rice and Clarence Thomas aren't "black" because their position on issues isn't correct.
Those black folks who don't appear to at least be open to the idea of voting for Obama will be labeled race traitors and ostracized. The pressure on black people to support Obama is immense. Many feel that they have a duty to their "people" to vote for the guy. It's absolutely baffling to white folks, but it's true. If you haven't spent a lot of time around good honest decent black folks and seen the hell they catch just for trying to make sure their kids do well in school then you don't really understand this phenomenon. They've been raised and trained all their life to have this race consciousness first and foremost in their mind and it's darn hard for a number of people to escape it entirely. I know black families who are farther right on the spectrum than I am, but they are going to vote for Obama because they just can't bring themselves to reconcile their core beliefs and their behavior in the voting booth. How far we have come from the peak of the civil rights movement....: "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character." Martin Luther King Jr. |

On what fucking planet is this true??!! The Democrats haven't given a rat's ass about the "black community" (my wife despises that term) for years, because they are confident that black people will vote for them with Pavlovian regularity anyway. Watts needs to stop drinking the bong water. |

Will bet my last dollar he won't vote for Obama. |

I'll see that, and raise you this jaw-dropper
I don't think that one will buff out. |

Chrysler, the LTCM debacle, the recent mortgage crisis all involved government backed bail-outs (you call is what you want). Helping the big guys......helping the small guys. If you think it's not welfare be assured most blacks do and that is what we're talking about. Perception is reality. I don't want government making a habit of helping people that otherwise can help themelves or that can afford to take their lumps. Takes all the fun out of life. What's life without the struggle? |

I feel pretty safe that Walter Williams and Charles Payne (Fox Bulls and Bears guest) will follow Dr. King's character over color too.
|
|
Walter Williams went Ronulan crazy but no he don't like Obama. |
|
|
Race supercedes values in the black community evidently. This ought to raise a MAJOR red flag to us all. Our party left us a few years ago, and the best we got now is: "well, McCain is better than Obama." True, but voting for McCain is like trying to polish a turd.

Make that polish diarrhea. |

Probably because those with common sense vote for a president based upon *gasp* his/her merits rather then the color of the skin. I'm not saying all blacks don'thave common sense when it comes to politics (I'm mixed myself, a panda baby actually. Father is black and my mother is white...) but it sure seems like quite a few are lacking. |
||
|
I know that I'm not. ALL ethnic groups look out for their own. Except Whites, who actively work against their own interest in the name of fairness and enlightenment. Tribalism isn't going anywhere folks. |
|

I just read that some of the Stormfront and 88's want Obama to win. After all the socialist wealth redistribution/reparations the white people will finally wake up. Kevin "Interesting take." |
||
|
It will be ugly regardless who wins. |
|||
|
I sure hope so. It's the only chance the GOP has. |
|
|
Scary stuff. You think the riots were bad after the Rodney King crap? Imagine if some of those 88 nutters off obama. Dude. SHTF. |

The other side of the coin is that by protecting the value of the dollar and providing a "soft landing" for huge employers, those "bailouts" actually save money in the long run. While I dislike the moral hazard, I understand the necessity of not letting the economy crash and burn. The "rich" might lose a bit of money in a downturn, but the average guy on the street stands to lose everything, and have his retirement savings wiped out. Also, are you sure that you want to imply that "most black people" aren't smart enough to comprehend economics? |
|
|
What are they going to do? Burn down their neighborhoods? If they try and caravan to the nice side of town to hunt some whiteys, that shit is gonna get squashed right quick. I know we all like to bitch about how militarized the police are getting, but once we start seeing SWAT lighting up cars full of bangers on CNN we'll be all, "Hell yeah!!" Kevin "" |

That was part of reparations. |

Two more words: Herman Cain. He's a black conservative from georgia who ran for the U.S. Senate a few years back. He occassionally substitutes on the neil boortz radio show when neil's out of town or on vacation. As far as I know, I don't think he currently supports obama. During the primaries, he did, however, support mitt romney. Here's the link to his website: www.hermancain.com/default.asp |

Yeah but voting for Obama is like eating a runny shit sandwich because you really want a piece of bread. |
|
|
Probably so but I'd still like to avoid it if at all possible... (reviewing my supplies just in case.) |
