Angelides hits Schwarzenegger on guns, affirmative action
Scripps News ^ | Oct. 28, 2006 | KEVIN YAMAMURA and AURELIO ROJAS

Democratic candidate Phil Angelides challenged Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger on gun control and affirmative action Friday at the California NAACP conference, framing the issues as African American concerns the Republican governor should address when he visits the same group Saturday.

The Democratic state treasurer questioned why Schwarzenegger accepted an endorsement from the California Rifle and Pistol Association "when our young men and women are being gunned down in the streets of Oakland." He also charged that Schwarzenegger never fought against a voter-approved 1996 initiative that banned colleges and other public institutions from using affirmative action.

"I'm proud that I opposed Proposition 209 because I believe in equality of access to our economy," Angelides said.

The governor last month vetoed Senate Bill 840 to create a universal health care system in California. Angelides was neutral on the proposal, but he has said he wants to put California "on a path toward universal health care."

More significant differences between Arnold and Angelides.

Real conservatives WILL get out and vote for Arnold and all Republicans to defeat the leftist socialist Dems and send them a message.

Angelides opposes the RKBA and he's against equal treatment under the law. A hard core liberal and no wonder he's sinking in the polls.

Spot on! Pictures like that will hopefully inspire the uninitiated to learn the real truth about the Democratic Party and its disgraceful history. Wayne Perryman's book "Unfounded Loyalty" is a great place to start: Welcome to Wayne Perryman Online.

Rev. Perryman had this to say in 2004: The Racist History of the Democratic Party. Excerpt:
"Most people are either a Democrat by design, or a Democrat by deception. That is either they were well aware the racist history of the Democrat Party and still chose to be Democrat, or they were deceived into thinking that the Democratic Party is a party that sincerely cared about Black people.

History reveals that every piece of racist legislation that was ever passed and every racist terrorist attack that was ever inflicted on African Americans, was initiated by the members of the Democratic Party. From the formation of the Democratic Party in 1792 to the Civil Rights movement of 1960's, Congressional records show the Democrat Party passed no specific laws to help Blacks, every law that they introduced into Congress was designed to hurt blacks in 1894 Repeal Act. The chronicles of history shows that during the past 160 years the Democratic Party legislated Jim Crows laws, Black Codes and a multitude of other laws at the state and federal level to deny African Americans their rights as citizens.

History reveals that the Republican Party was formed in 1854 to abolish slavery and challenge other racist legislative acts initiated by the Democratic Party.

Some called it the Civil War, others called it the War Between the States, but to the African Americans at that time, it was the War Between the Democrats and the Republicans over slavery. The Democrats gave their lives to expand it, Republican gave their lives to ban it.

During the Senate debates on the Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871, it was revealed that members of the Democratic Party formed many terrorist organizations like the Ku Klux Klan to murder and intimidate African Americans voters. The Ku Klux Klan Act was a bill introduced by a Republican Congress to stop Klan Activities. Senate debates revealed that the Klan was the terrorist arm of the Democratic Party.

History reveals that Democrats lynched, burned, mutilated and murdered thousands of blacks and completely destroyed entire towns and communities occupied by middle class Blacks, including Rosewood, Florida, the Greenwood District in Tulsa Oklahoma, and Wilmington, North Carolina to name a few."
