Would it be bad if we fell into place with less boastrous nations. Maybe we need to be taken down a peg or two. We are like a big bully at times.

demeaning
 

to those who thought my post about blacks getting smart was demeaning, would you rather they remain in slavery, ignorance, poverty and crime which the liberal welfare system has seen fit to encourage all these decades? no, i applaud the fact that there is awakening among many and they will achieve their place with true equality and deserved respect.

I am so easy. I thought it sounded demeaning also, but when I read this, It makes me go HUMMMMM. I think you may just have something there.

Rush Limbaugh says Mitt Romney was booed at the NAACP convention because he is white. Funny, I watched VP Joe Biden's speech today at the same venue, and he wasn't booed one time. Then Romney calls the booers freeloaders. No wonder Romney is polling at 1% with African-Americans. Sounds like Rush is playing the race card.

I would expect him to get some boos from the crowd if he did show up, just like Romney knew he would when he dissed ObamaCare.

I don't think Obama has the same kind of confidence and character to speak in front of a possibly hostile audience.

Romney also got thunderous applause when he said he'll stand for the family and traditional marriage. I'll bet anything that cause some consternation in the White House.

I know Ed thinks you're on target here, but IMHO you are extremely naive if you believe that Obama loves this country.

Obama is trying to destroy the free America you know and transform it into a country more in line with Marxism.

Obama isn't evil, he's communist.

You don't read much; do you?

Even left wing site Huffington Post reported that Romney got a warm welcome and applause, especially when he touted his support for traditional family and talked about his father who was a giant among civil rights proponents.

Mitt Romney NAACP Speech Mixed Applause With Boos

Obviously, I read more than you............. evidently, Willard flew in some black supporters to applaud for him ............

...... But he received scattered applause at other junctures in his address, including when he said he would uphold traditional marriage ......‬


NAACP Official: Romney Flew In Black Supporters To Back Him During Speech To Civil Rights Group

Golfingnut: Not once ever do I recall from history or from experiences living here do I recall America being arrogant toward another nation. And as far as being taken down a peg or two don't you believe 9/11 was enough for america to take?

What your post tells me is that the Obama propoganda has unfortunately reached you and his propoganda reeks of defeatism. Clearly I would not want Obama mentoring my children because without a doubt they would grow up with no self-esteem.

I believed in live and let live until Obama showed up

i just let it roll off my back, bucco...i take it from whence it comes...

We republicans need the Democratic view in order to have debates and discussion. There is only a few of them in here hanging on. Run them off and what will we talk about.

Initially, I thought that your first post was "odd" and possibly "demeaning" but I don't like to immediately judge people so I chose to not respond to it. However, your second post and attempted clarification seems to have been written by a racist.

I'm not saying that you are a racist because I'll willing to wait for further clarification but according to your post, you are saying that MANY blacks (from your first post) are enslaved, ignorant, poor and criminal due to (your preception) reliance on "a welfare system" (from your second post).

First of all, MANY (which would be numerically greater than more - which would be numerically greater than the majority) blacks are not ignorant, poor or criminal.

[No one in this country is enslaved - and to refer to African Americans as "enslaved" is particularly offensive.]

Secondly, you imply that African Americans rely on a "liberal welfare system" that has "encouraged" them to become "ignorant, poor and criminal". I'm not sure what you consider to be a "liberal welfare system". If I were to assume that you mean either transitional assistance to children and families (commonly referred to as "welfare") and/or food stamps, I would also assume that you (as a well-informed woman) would know that Causacian Americans are overwhelming the recipients of this assistance.

Additionally, since you refer to "ignorance", it appears that you're speaking about public education. Again, funding for public education overwhelming benefits Causacian Americans in ways that are too numerous to mention.

Finally, African Americans have achieved equality and deserve respect. It is not something that "will" (in the future) happen based on some awakening defined by others, except, possibly, in the minds of those who are bigots.

Facts are often not pretty. Especially when facts - not heresay - but facts tend to expose a candidate for the phony he (or she) really is. The above response is typical of one who really has nothing else to say.

Now we know why Cons hate vetting their candidates.

Wow, what a bad few weeks for the Republican Party. First, Arizona immigration was struck down by the Supreme Court, next, Supreme Court uphold the individual mandate on Affordable Health Care, and now Romney may be lying about Bain.

When there is nothing to defend your candidate, is it the proper thing to do to try and get the posts banned by the forum administrator? What happened to the free speech guaranteed by the Constitution?

I think Harry S Truman (no period after the S) stated it best when he said, "If you cannot stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen."

You're right, we are losing it, we're losing America; and if we don't stop Obama and his cadre soon, we'll never be able to get it back.

Finally, you're making some sense.
