Russert Amazed Black Republicans Seek Tea Party Support, A Group Many 'Claim To Be Racist'

Listen to the surprise in Luke Russert's voice as he reports that many African-American Republican candidates for congress are seeking support from the Tea Party. After all, says Luke, the Tea Party is a group that "a lot of folks have claimed to be racist against African-Americans."

Russert expressed his amazement on MSNBC this morning, discussing a New York Times article that reports that as many as 32 black Republicans are running for Congress.

If someone could just figure out how to convert idiocy into energy, the U.S. would have an infinite supply.

Here’s what you can do Luke. Resign from your MSNBC/NBC job. Then, go out and find a job in this economy, with your skills, without your daddy’s help. Then report back to us. Oh, and STFU!

Now, WHO is it that sees everything through the prism of race?
WHO is it that takes “African American studies” in college?

Look THERE for the racists, not amongst conservative people who are inherently INDIVIDUALISTS, not group thinkers.

Let’s just say that we don’t much like black criminals, or corrupt black politicians, or entitled blacks on permanent welfare for generations. All typical Democrats.

And we don’t much like white criminals, or corrupt white politicians, or entitled whites on permanent welfare for generations, either. Also mostly typical Democrats, or RINOs.

What we do like is people willing to work to support their families, or to work for the good of their country, black or white.

How the heck Russert got his job is a mystery.

Anyone else see Dave Chappelle’s “Black White Supremacist”?

Funniest skit ever. Blind black man raised as a white supremacist, doesn’t know any better. Ends up finding out, has to divorce his [white] wife because he doesn’t want to be married to a white woman who would marry a black man.

Great satire on racism.

Yeah, right, Lukey. “Some say,” “experts claim,” “it is widely reported that,” etc, etc. Media credibility is at an all-time low because of this sort of kindergarten innuendo. I have a great idea - if you want to find out if any of the black Republican candidates buy into that crap...why don’t you ask them? It’s called “reporting.”

Seems like the commonality in “people we don’t much like” has a lot more to do with them being democRat than being of any particular shade of brown.

Russert Sr. was a man. His offspring is a yutz.

God rest his soul, but the old man wasn’t any genius, either. The apple didn’t fall that far from the tree really. Just another generation in the evolution of stupid.

Luke is a naive kid who got his job in respect to his deceased father. He’s probably surprised that 32 Black Americans are seeking office as Republicans. Things are beginning to change Luke as more and more educated black Americans realize that the Democrat party has done nothing more for them other than to suppress them as victims.

O’Reilly Brands really Stupid People “PINEADS.”
On the O’Reilly Ranking Scale, Luke Russert earns
the dubious distinctive title of “ATOMHEAD!” and for those from Rio Linda, an Atom is a hell of alot smaller than a Pin!

Bears repeating.

“I’m amazed that Luke is as stupid as his dad was.”

Much worse than his dad I think. Maybe you know more about Tim Russert than I do, but from my recollection of him, I doubt that he would have made the same comment that his son did.
