Oh.....really? Lou, perhaps you will share your unbiased insight into this recent revelation from one of your own Democratic loyals.

Mary Frances Berry, is the former chairwoman of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights. She was appointed by Bill Clinton. She also has the distinction of being a past president of the Organization of American Historians. That organization is the leading professional organization for historians of the United States.

Lou, her remarks are on our topic and very revealing. She said,

“Tainting the tea party movement with the charge of racism is proving to be an effective strategy for Democrats. There is no evidence that tea party adherents are any more racist than other Republicans, and indeed many other Americans. But getting them to spend their time purging their ranks and having candidates distance themselves should help Democrats win in November. Having one’s opponent rebut charges of racism is far better than discussing joblessness.”

R. Dozier Gray, a member of the conservative black group Project 21 put it in a statement about Berry’s remarks:

“This willful and purposeful use of the race card for nothing more than political gain is toxic to race relations, and Mary Frances Berry must know that. But she evidently does not care. Based on her comment, political posturing takes primacy over whatever real issues regarding race that she might pretend are her calling cards. I have seen this all before. I find it shameful.”

.....and the Democratic party's exploitation of race and black Americans continues........cabo35
