It's "racism" in the form of demanding that all prominent/promising black candidates submit to the Plantation of Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Jeremiah Wright, and SHEILA JACKSON LEE...(OMG....could anyone be any more racist than she????)

EXACTLY...Doubt the left will ever get tho...
Any of you read the book by Star Parker-"Uncle Sam's Plantation"?
RichieLion you are so correct with your tongue in cheek comments...how dare this black man even think he needs to try escape the benevolent, compassionate, teat of the Democratic party!

I really didn't know anything about Star Parker before you introduced me to her, and I thank you for that. I started reading some of her opinion pieces online, and now I know why the major media doesn't reference this learned black conservative woman. She upsets the apple cart. She exposes their duplicity, especially where it concerns others of her ethnicity, with brilliant analysis and insight.

Anyone else who wants to hear what Ms. Parker has to say can find many of her columns at this link:--------------- http://townhall.com/columnists/starparker/

I knew you would get what I was doing. Our political adversaries are much too angry to get "me". Thank you.

Experts claim that one manner in which you can assess such charges are not only whether payment was made but by the fact if the amoint was 5 figures or six figures. At 5 figures its not likely that the plaintiff will prevail but let's avoid the risk and the unwanted attention. Whereas 6 figures means there a 50/505 chance.

Ann Coulter released a great column on Nov. 2nd that was just published in the Daily Sun today in it's usual place on the Editorial Page.

She gives context to the attacks on Herman Cain coupled with the Democrats dishonesty about their relationships with Black America in view of their racially tinged attacks, and stereotypical statements about blacks, when the target of their dislike is a black conservative.

I know our liberal posters will ignore her thesis and instead attack Ms. Coulter on an extremely personal level if they comment at all, but for those of you who haven't read this, you might find your ideas and feelings about this subject put into context.

As usual, she headlines her piece with a bit of "what did she just say?!" in order to get you to read it. That's her sense of humor, like it or not.

I actually would enjoy a thoughtful rebuttal I think, but I don't think it's forthcoming.

As far as this Cain stuff goes stop the whining it goes with the territory in this day and age. It is the major reason we no longer get the best and the brightest to run for office.

So tell me, how do the liberals on this board and in this thread feel about "redistribution of wealth and class warfare?"

Does the loyal opposition draw a "bright line" somewhere on the path to the left and short of totalitarian dictatorship? If so, where?

One question I would ask Democrats back when I was a Republican - back inn the tax-and-spend heydays was "How much is enough".

I wanted to be able to walk up to Ted Kennedy and say "At what tax rate would you finally say 'ok' and stop pressing for more taxes? At what point would you say 'stick a fork in it - it's done.'?"

I never got an answer.

One thing I'll say for Herman Cain - he appears to have answered my question in reverse - that is, "At what point yould you say taxes are low enough?"

redistribution of wealth and class warfare are great excuses for maintaining the current status. Unfortunately redistribution and class warfare have been part of our economic landscape since we became a country. To compare those of us that want to rescind the Bush tax cuts and make corporations pay at least some taxes and call us socialists or communists is stupid,lame and totally uncalled for. The middle class the backbone of America is losing ground and not to the poor but to the rich. Whats crazier? People fighting Wall St because we are becoming more crippled economically day by day or one man having a net worth of a billion dollars because he manipulated our market and got away with it.

"Redistribution of wealth and class warfare have been part of our economic landscape since we became a country"? What part of the founding of our free nation are you talking about? This is blatant revisionism, and patently false.

You're are operating more on your emotions than your intellect here with your raging against corporations. The politicians are the corruption you should be raging against. You support the very people who are selling you out.

Actually it is our archaic form of public "education" that is ruining this country. Our school systems were designed to put people to work in factories for 150 years. The status quo has not changed while the structure of the work force has. We recruit people from distant lands to fill high tech jobs. We should get rid of the department of education immediately.

I agree with closing down the Dept of Education. Your reasons are good, and add to them the fact that the basics aren't taught.

The basics are taught.

Getting back to the topic of the thread--the bloodthirsty tactics of Plantation Democrats who will go to any length to destroy a black politician who flees his owners on the Democrat Plantation and thinks for himself as a conservative--this statement by Clarence Thomas fully applies to Herman Cain now.

The only word that doesn't apply is "U.S. Senate", which should be replaced with "Obama campaign minions".

"This is a circus. It is a national disgrace. And from my standpoint, as a black American, as far as I am concerned, it is a high-tech lynching for uppity-blacks who in any way deign to think for themselves, to do for themselves, to have different ideas, and it is a message that, unless you kow-tow to an old order, this is what will happen to you, you will be lynched, destroyed, caricatured by a committee of the U.S. Senate, rather than hung from a tree."

His latest accuser, has to read her own story at the press conference. An experience so unforgettable, that she can't just tell it? Not sure which is worse...her reading skills or her acting skills. It would be comedic if not so heinous.

Follow the money. Neither the accuser, Bialek, nor Allred is making such appearances for free.

They're playing to stereotypical "fears" of a black man accosting a white women. All there is is accusation, and we all know that sometimes that can be enough.

I don't even think this is the Democrats. I believe this is coming from the Republican establishment that wants to eliminate Cain from consideration and shove Romney down our throats, because Romney won't upset the apple cart. He won't challenge the status quo. They did this to us with McCain and it's happening again. We just get more of the same old song and dance b.s. if we allow ourselves to be scammed again.
