Goodness. Is this what it has come too. Someone posting something that someone said over 20 yrs ago. Get a grip. I'm sure I can find many a recent video of anti- white comments being said by an Obama voter. Some people need to just get over themselves and get a life on both sides. GTFU.

That "someone" you refer to is the architect of the GOP's strategy for the past 20 years. Of course, this highlights the ignorance without which the blatant racism of the Republicans wouldn't have been viable this long.

Farg... He's been fucking DEAD for 22 years... He's not a democrat, he doesn't still vote.

Why does anyone take you serious? Seriously?

I'm just wondering: can you name a single, overtly racist policy of the GOP?

Interestingly, in a rally in Chicago and again in Atlanta, Obama appealed to an almost entirely black audience and said something along the lines of "we can't win without the black vote" (speaking to the audience at those rallies).

I can't even imagine the fallout if a white candidate said "the only way we can win is to get out the white vote".

Yea, you're right. I mean after all, the repubs have finally broken their ugly and ridiculous habit of blaming every problem on Jimmy Carter even though that was oh...almost 40 years ago.

I guess we can back off the racists scum bastards that all too much of the right is...today.

I mean McConnell actually in public saying out loud like never before in modern politics that the repubs first priority...that is first priority was to make Obama a one term pres.

Not the country, not the economy, not jobs, not the deficit, not spending... but getting the first black...er him...er dem out of office. It wasn't because he was a black man even though he was a dem...and black.

Yes.

The friction detonated this week when Doug Preisse, the influential Republican Party chairman of Franklin County, which includes the state capital, Columbus, was quoted in The Columbus Dispatch newspaper as saying, “I guess I really actually feel we shouldn’t contort the voting process to accommodate the urban — read African-American — voter turnout machine.”

Mr. Preisse has sought to tamp down the fury, saying in a statement that his comments, which The Dispatch said were e-mailed to the reporter writing the article, were “misconstrued, and in some cases misquoted entirely.”

“However,” he added, “if my comments, either in their original form, or as repeated in other ways, have caused anyone discomfort, I regret that.”

Matt Borges, the executive director of the state Republican Party, stoked the controversy when he was quoted in The Plain Dealer as saying that Mr. Preisse thought his comments to The Dispatch were off the record.

Think it hasnt been said?

Republican senator Lindsey Graham's remark that there weren't enough "angry white guys" to bring Republicans to power seemed prophetic in the light of President Barack Obama's victory.

........

Back in August, Graham had said: "The demographics race we're losing badly. We're not generating enough angry white guys to stay in business for the long term."

The Republicans are idiots.

The Democrats are idiots.

When everyone actually realizes that and votes for people like Ross Perot or Ron Paul....the world will be safer, you'll pay an immediate price because both understood that...there's a price to be paid....and you get to pay it because you put these fuckheads into office.....and that, friends....that's when shit is gonna get fixed.

I so agree with you Lookie.. doesnt seem like many people wanna pay the price tho.. they want someone else to..

oh well..

The GOP is in a difficult spot. On the one hand, they've got a party full of racists who are threatening secession because the black guy got re-elected. On the other, they're dealing with a demographic reality that threatens to make them irrelevant if they go with the racists and ignore everyone else.
Now that Lee Atwater's "N*gger, N*igger, N*igger" tape is public, and that Today's Republicans are on notice that although they might not have known explicitly that racism was THE STRATEGY of the GOP, they DO KNOW NOW, and it's time to see if they have the balls to do what needs doing.
I suspect they DO NOT have the balls to do what needs doin'. But they have the opportunity to demonstrate whether they do, or do not.

The R's should be more like the D's and have a leader that says non-racial things like "light skinned" African-American "with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one."

Well, has ANYONE seen ANY republicans publicly denounce the Atwater Southern Strategy, or call for the expulsion of those Republican Leaders who have used it and made it the centerpiece of GOP strategy for the past however many years?

I haven't. Which must mean that they all accept the racism inherent in their chosen strategy.
