Douglas Turner: GOP is courting angry white males
Buffalo News ^ | 8/10/09 | Drug Turner

WASHINGTON — With their votes against Sonia Maria Sotomayor last week, Republicans snuggled up to their broadcast image as the incredible shrinking frat house of white males.

The GOP once courted the Latino vote. But on Thursday, both Republican senators from three states carved out of old Mexico in the 19th century— Texas, Arizona and Utah— all voted against the newest Supreme Court justice.

OK, one of the six was a woman, Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchinson of Texas. But she is running against an incumbent governor, Rick Perry, who is courting macho extremists who think secession from the United States might not be a bad idea.

Twenty-five other Republicans joined the sextet. Were they oblivious to the old news that Hispanics are the fastest-growing share of

registered voters? Texas and Arizona are nearly a third Hispanic.

Opposing Republican senators acted out a version of Nixon’s “Southern Strategy” of appealing to angry white males, now backed by the drumbeat of hired brown-shirts wrecking Democratic town meetings in the August recess, racist cartoons flooding the Internet and the rant on Fox News that President Obama has a “deep-seated hatred for white people or the white culture.”

Looks like Drug Turner courted an angry ferret to be his hair piece.

And if angry black females were being targeted instead? Would that make any difference?

And they would be wise to do so, too. White males (and their equally white, equally angry wives) make up the single largest voting block out there. Getting just 1% of the white vote is equivalent to getting something like 6% of the black vote or 7% of the Latino vote, once you factor in voting rates and population percentages. Guess which would be a lot easier to get?

So, protesters are now labeled by the left as: “NAZI, racist, white, males, ultra right-wing, robots.”

Unfortunately, they really aren’t. But hopefully, us angry white and other colored patriots will force the limp wristers along for the ride.

I wish republicans would actually do something for white males other than make us a smaller minority every year considering we are their best demographic.

‘Were they oblivious to the old news that Hispanics are the fastest-growing share of registered voters? Texas and Arizona are nearly a third Hispanic.’

None of this seemed to bother Democrats when they torpedoed Estrada’s ascension to a higher court. In fact, Dim memos stated that Estrada was opposed because he’s Hispanic. I guess that didn’t ruffle the right feathers...

The DNC has been pandering to blacks and other non-whites for decades. Why shouldn’t the RNC pander to whites?

I want to see conservative votes first, lot of them. Then we'll talk - not before. Otherwise, get lost.

“””Why shouldn’t the RNC pander to whites?”””””

Its racist.
Don’t ask me why, I don’t know the answer to that.

And why is DEMS pandering to blacks NOT racist?
I don’t know the answer to that either. I guess I am not “enlightened” and “forward thinking” enough to know.

Where was Druggie when his Democrat friends were sandbagging the far better qualified Hispanic gentleman named Miguel Estrada?
