Obama’s failure will make black voters relevant again [Reader Post]

No, pal. It wasn’t the black vote that put Hussein in the White House. It was the WOMEN’S vote, most of whom were WHITE women. Were it up to males, McCain–as weak and pathetic as he is–would be president and the nation would NOT be in peril. So we have a great many, typical female air-heads to thank for 10% unemployment and the advent of the Marxist state. God willing, these paragons of imbecility will STAY HOME on November 2nd. Perhaps a 70% day off at the beauty parlor can be arranged…or Oprah’s 10 BEST…the first All MY Children…or MOST effective, allow only competent DRIVERS on the road!!!

The Liberal Elite and Black Intellectual Serfdom

http://www.americanthinker.com/2010/10/the_liberal_elite_and_black_in.html

Recently, while campaigning for the upcoming midterm elections, President Obama engaged in classic liberal race-baiting by demagogically asserting that Republicans are counting on blacks not turning up to the polls. However, despite Obama’s agenda in making that assertion, unfortunately, the underlying premise of his comment is accurate: the majority of blacks unthinkingly vote for Democrats in droves.

It is my contention that black people who diligently vote for Democrats are intellectual slaves to the liberal agenda, inasmuch as they, for the most part, are ignorant of the history of the Democratic Party and vote for policies that harm their communities. It is only a black intellectual slave who can observe the impact of liberal policies on the black community without having a scintilla of unease about pulling the lever for Democrats — election after election.

Black liberals have been cleverly coaxed into believing that Democrats have their best interests at heart because these Democrats no longer don white pointed hoods, lynch people, and burn crosses. With more sophistication than the mass-murdering tactics they employed in the days of yore, Democrats continue to actively perpetuate insidious policies that keep blacks on the lowest rung of the socioeconomic totem pole.

The most prominent method that Democrats currently use to advance their atrocious policies in the black community is the use of black liberal elites as decoys.

Capitalism for the Goose, Socialism for the Gander

Unsurprisingly, the actions — as opposed to the rhetoric — of people who promote the “magnificence” of socialism show that they believe socialism is good only for others, whereas capitalism is fit for their lives.

Career race-baiters, like Al Sharpton, would not be doing what they do if there were little to no financial incentive. Fanning the flames of racial division across the country and incessantly calling for socialist handouts for blacks, frankly, would get rather boring without a lucrative $1,000,000 paycheck at the end of the year.

Likewise, Barack Obama has earned millions of dollars in royalties from his two soporific, self-important books, and he plans to continue his book-flogging bonanza by inking another deal for close to $2,000,000 for a children’s book series.

Quick question: Why aren’t these black men expectantly waiting with their hands out for food stamps from the government?

Sharpton can happily advocate socialist health care and all other sorts of government freebies that sound good on paper but are sub-par in reality because he is a multimillionaire. When he gets sick, he can afford to be treated at the finest hospitals with the best doctors in the world. Champagne socialists would never deign to subscribe to the policies they hypocritically foist on the masses, but the capitalist perks of promoting the “benefits” of socialism to black intellectual serfs is too profitable for a decadent hypocrite like Sharpton to pass up.

Socialism is nothing more than a deceitful left-wing farce that inherently creates a super-exclusive oligarchy under the laughable guise of egalitarianism.

If the Republican message to blacks of “stand up on your own two feet, stop relying on government handouts and benefits, get a stellar education, hone your native skills and talents, and work incredibly hard to make a massive success of your life” is something so extraordinarily depraved, why is it that the elite black left invariably follow the Republican roadmap to success in their private lives while advocating failed socialist tripe for the liberal black intellectual serfs?

From rappers to athletes to academics, every single black person who has made it out of unfortunate circumstances, climbed, and sustained his or her place at the top has done so through hard work and taking advantage of the capitalistic meritocracy in America.

Only mass intellectual serfdom in the black community can present an adequate explanation as to why the myth of “Benevolent Big Government” continues to prevail — and why the black vote is almost monolithically given to the Democrats.

Uncle Sam: The Black Intellectual Serf’s Worst Relative

A basic rule of economics is that if you want more of an activity, you subsidize it, and if you want less of an activity, you heavily tax it. Sadly, what Democrats have been doing for decades is subsidizing every bad action of impoverished blacks.

The most deplorable example of this is the exponential rise in the illegitimacy rate that came as a result of its liberal subsidization.

As was argued by the late Daniel Patrick Moynihan — a rare sensible liberal — the subsidization of illegitimacy poses all sorts of problems for the black community, including stymied economic progress, low IQs in children, high dropout rates, crime, and the dismantling of the black family.

Today, as a result of the Democrats’ “well-intentioned” welfare policies, we now have a 70% illegitimacy rate in the black community, which will likely increase if the largesse of Big Government is not stopped.

Democrats have successfully addicted black liberals to the crack cocaine of government aid, so like any addict, black liberals keep coming back to the voting booth and pulling the lever for everything with a (D) after its name so they can get that next fix of Uncle Sam’s free money.

Meanwhile, Sharpton and his profiteering ilk are raking in millions of dollars while countless blacks are suffering in intellectual slavery — and are blinded to the fact that they’ve been robbed of all entrepreneurial vision and power that would allow them to create wealth and lift themselves out of a cycle of poverty.

The Democrat Emperor Has No Clothes

It’s been nearly fifty years of failed Democrat policies, and all black intellectual slaves have to show for their decades of cultish allegiance to liberals is worsened poverty, a broken family structure, failing schools, massive black genocide via abortion, run-down communities, perennial joblessness, and almost every other social malady that can be imagined. Yet with recent approval ratings for President Obama remaining steady at 91% among blacks, there is no sign of black devotion to their Democrat oppressors changing anytime soon. Black liberals are suffering from political Stockholm syndrome. These blacks are the Uncle Toms they accuse us freedom-loving black conservatives of being.

The need for Democrat cross-burning in order to keep blacks in the underclass is over. Democrats have succeeded in creating black intellectual serfs who are so swayed by the blandishments of Big Government and the empty anti-capitalist rhetoric of the left that they don’t even realize they’ve been hoodwinked by some of the biggest beneficiaries of capitalism!

Unless black liberals realize they’ve been the victims of a decades-long election-buying rip-off perpetrated by the Democrats — and advanced using the cat’s-paws of the black faces in the leftist elite — the black community will remain in the quagmire of despair it has been in since the Democrats started handing black people their scraps to live off.

The black community’s allegiance to Democrats is among the most shameful political facts in American history — and it can be ended only by the articulation of a true conservative message from passionate, intrepid, and ethnically diverse messengers.

What liberals have done to the black community over the last forty years is something their Jim Crow loving predecessors could only dream of.

Great post and good comments.
I especially liked the article from #3.

I also read a good article about the history of the black vote – by a black writer yesterday.

Eugene Robinson likens how Dems rely on a ~90% black vote as like monopolies which inevitably take their customers for granted.

So true!

With the choice of Barry Goldwater Republicans had tried to capitalize on the racial fears and grievances of Southern whites — by letting black voters drift away from the GOP, and even encouraging them to stay away.

Well, for years it worked.

However we are entering a new era.

Free-thinking black voters are joining TEA parties and voting both Independent AND Republican!

Maybe we will see a backlash to the name-calling by Dems of those blacks who do so.

When African American women are having forty three percent of the abortions in this country I think you can safely say modern liberalism has killed more blacks than Jim Crow ever did

@ B-Rob, FDR gave them Cabrini Green Housing in Chicago (1942) among other HUD Housing projects that were located in St. Louis, Atlanta, NYC & NJ and you have to admire what a collection of gifts they were. I can cite other examples in case your memory needs a jump start.

@ Missy, He knows nothing about anyone that bootstrapped themselves to posterity without benefit of Affirmative Action or those that made their own successful life without playing the race card? Dare I use the word Merit here?

Naw…Why bother…I never considered myself to be a hyphenated American and have a fair modicum of success without resorting to my heritage as a crutch. My ancestors were the Original Americans, destroyed Custer’s 7th Cavalry and were placed on reservations long after the Emancipation Proclamation. Let him try medical treatment at a BIA Facility or sample life on a Reservation.

My Grand Dad was educated at Carlysle, cowboyed in Montana and Wyoming and bought a piece of ground, a few cattle and made it on hard work and merit. I was taught those values and was spanked soundly for fighting at school for someone calling me “Chief”. My Grand Dad told me not to reward ignorance with bad behavior before he lit into me. B-Rob is a real piece of work and forms assumptions based on his limited views, ignorance and bias.

BTW, no one calls me “Chief” today. Some call me Colonel and some call me Mister.

@Old Trooper 2:

I personally do not know anyone that doesn’t want every member of our society to succeed, since Johnson and the Moynahan Report, for over 40 years….. the liberal way has failed.

Anything “cons” would bring to the table would be twisted into some sort of a racial attack. Sadly, it’s been a liberal lust for power and opm that have kept a portion of our society down, nothing has advanced, the stats are worse.

Soon, they will have many like Allen West and Charles Lollar to reckon with. Fatherless homes will have examples of strength, honesty and courage as examples.

@ Missy, the use of the word “con” has become the new N-Word lately by those that oppose reduction of spending, taxes and fiscal responsibility in Government. I am neither a Republican or a Democrat but I am a Conservative to the bone and an Independent as neither Party can claim a lack of responsibility on the Economy. However, any clown that leads out with the phrase “con” shows me their economic illiteracy, their ignorance of the current realities and lack of civility.

I am pretty thick skinned on a lot of issues but “Con” refers to guilt of some sort, as in Convict.

I reckon that I am guilty of being judgmental in that regard. For that I will not apologize but I do not want irresponsible folks in Leadership Roles in this Nation that can’t balance the budget, won’t perform their Duties in accordance with the Constitution, enforce existing Laws, recognize the separation of Powers between Federal and State Governments, send Troopers off to Wars that they do not intend to Win and keep their noses in the Public trough too long. I despise Career Politicians that leave office as Millionaires when they were of only modest means when they entered but cannot balance the Nation’s checkbook.

My shortcomings here. We folks from Montana don’t need Our Communities Organized unless We do it Ourselves.

Another blathering, unverified, anecdotal tale …

Go finish your paper route bub…

Obama, Sharpton, Jackson continue to do damage to the black community by instilling and reinforcing percepts of “inferiority” on it. They made careers of it. You don’t hear them urging the black community to take responsibility for themselves and become entrepreneurs, for example. You hear whining, and you hear clamouring for “get what you’re owed” just for being black and having been oppressed. That’s no way to get out of the shadows.

Sadly, these attitudes are spread and perpetrated by the MSM (daily by the likes of CNN) on black audiences. The Victim message got traction because it has been pounded into the minds of the black community at high decibels. You can go back and revisit previous political campaigns such as Clinton’s, and assess how effectively the Democratic hustle of the black community was implemented. Obama’s pronouncements are probably the most obnoxious and embarrassing . While he may hold disdain for caucasians, he treats black with an evident lack of respect – a respect they should be shown by any President.

The consistent abuse of blacks by “their own” OF “their own” has no parallel in any other racial group in the country.

Nice piece, Vince.

@ Missy —

You might want to rewrite your post to me; it makes no sense whatsoever.

If you go back to the post from the other dat, Old Trooper was injecting HIS RACE into a discussion and declaring that, as an American Indian, no one that I knew had faced as much discrimination as he. I challenged him with a friend’s mom, who escaped the Holocaust, and people I know who were Black and lived in the Jim Crow South. Old Trooper, of course, did not respond.

You will never see me posting anything about how I have suffered more than anyone on any level. Because, to be honest, I have led a fairly charmed life. So I would NEVER post something as sefl-reverential and self-referential as what Old Trooper posted . . . but that’s just me.

Old Trooper —

“Cons” the new “N-word”? God, you people are such wimps! The day the word “conservative” has the same social history as the word “n*gger” is the day you can whine about the “insult” of being called a con.

I refer to you as cons because it is short for “conservative.” Some of you do advocate criminal conduct (like Sharon Angle boasting about “exercising Second Amendment rights” against Harry Reid and the ELECTED Dem majority), while others of you are caught engaging in criminal conduct (both of the men’s room confrontation type, paying off a mistress, soliciting hookers, misusing government computers for political purposes, bribery, etc.) And some of you do support the con game being run by the GOPers now, where you complaind about the deficit, you advocate cutting tax revenues but won’t say what spending you will cut to decrease the deficit as you decrease revenues. So I think “con” is a more than fitting shorthand for conservatives.

Mary Jo Kopechne could not be reached for comment.

As long as the blacks are ex-military they might get a chance to be an exciting part of politics.
But Obama is doing all he can to cut off the military vote….of any color who serves overseas.

Just last night Jose Gil Hernandez Ramirez, a Texas National Guardsman was shot dead in Mexico, at the border town of Ciudad Juarez.

Where’s Obama?

As far as he’s concerned our men and women in the National Guard can die rather than our border be properly protected.

And Mexico should be an “OFF-LIMITS” area for all Americans serving in the military.

That alone would have saved Jose’s life.

@Silly Rob: You said:

…social safety net that would induce pregnant women not to abort because their material needs (food, shelter, health care, etc.) and the babies needs would be cared for.

Then you get what you pay for – an explosion of single mothers. No the answer is to empower people and help them get off of welfare. That is what the Republican Congress (and Bill Clinton being dragged to it, kicking and screaming) did in the ’90s. They reformed welfare and reduced the welfare roles by half. They discovered an odd thing – if you give people jobs and treat them with respect, they begin to respect themselves and start working towards a better life. THAT is true hope and change.

Bottom line in my estimation, the sooner We become a nation of just Americans and not hyphenated ones, the stronger the Nation will be and those that make their living perpetuating racism will be seeking more legitimate and less divisive ways to spend their time. I’d like to see Affirmative Action go away as the old Jim Crow Laws did. That would really level the playing field.
