Quote du jour

Racism is not dead, but it is on life support — kept alive by politicians, race hustlers, and people who get a sense of superiority by denouncing others as “racists.”
-Thomas Sowell

  2. The party of slavery, the Klan and Jim Crow is still the same party its always been. They've simply adjusted their methods for subjugating non-whites.

    1. I think the smug superiority they get from denouncing others, coupled with a desire for power to tell everyone else how they should live, it what motivates the modern liberal. Their soft bigotry of low expectations doesn't seem to register consciously with most of them.

  3. I don't consider their bigotry to be soft at all. Go to Detroit or East LA and you'll see just how soft democrat bigotry is. They destroy lives for a living.

    Leftists are the scum of this earth.

    1. I was echoing the words of GWB. But the bigotry is soft, not the consequences. You'd never see, for example, a liberal lynching a black because of his skin color or burning a cross on their lawn. That doesn't mean that the consequences of liberal policy, unintended or not, are not disastrous or fatal to the recipient.

      Bigotry is overt. Soft bigotry is covert. That's the only difference.

  4. Fair enough, but as far as liberals lynching blacks, just look at how they act when a black person steps out of leftist line. They start calling them coons and Uncle Toms. The left wants black people on a very short leash. A dumb, dirt poor, degenerate leash. It's patently racist and I don't think its covert at all. It's Orwellian, sure, but its right out in the open. Democrats have no qualms about proclaiming blacks to be a race of retarded children. Too stupid in fact to even obtain a photo ID.

    1. Seems to me that it is not their color that offends or threatens them so much as a threat to their power. They would resist that if it came from a blonde Lithuanian. More Alinsky than Klan. They say the poor and elderly are also too "stupid" to get an ID. The Democrats are equal opportunity character assassins.
