Moran: GOP won in 2010 because 'a lot of people' don't want black president (BARF ALERT)
The Washington Post ^ | 2011-01-27 | Ben Pershing

Rep. James P. Moran Jr. (D-Va.) is once again drawing attention for making controversial comments to the media, after the told the Arab television network Alhurra that the GOP won in November because many Americans don't want a black president.

In the interview, which has been flagged by the Weekly Standard and The Washington Post's Jennifer Rubin, Moran said that Democratic losses in the 2010 elections ...

... happened because of the same reason the Civil War happened in the United States. The Civil War happened because the Southern states, particularly the slaveholding states, didn't want to see a president who was opposed to slavery. In this case a lot of people in this country, I believe, don't want to be governed by an African American, particularly one who is inclusive, who is liberal, who wants to spend money on everyone and who wants to reach out to include everyone in our society. That's a basic philosophical clash.

Boortz told a black caller once, “Frankly, I don’t like the white half of him either.” Shut her right up.

Not only that....those who did not vote for him would have gladly voted for Thomas Sowell, Clarence Thomas, or numerous other Blacks, if they ran. It has nothing to do with skin color and everything to do with failed, evil, Marxist ideology which wants to create a serfdom with all Americans being non-thinking serfs.

And those who DID vote for Barky would have and have had the nastiest things to say about Thomas, Rice, Sowell, et al.

You hit on something else in your post as well - the goals of the elitist left.

They seek a society based on neo-feudalism.

They will be the nobles who control every resource,
while the peasants must subsist on the noble’s lands
and live and die at their whims.

I didn’t think we were voting for the President. Please hold this until 2012.

Those who refuse to be slaves/peasants will be deemed ungovernable.

The ungovernable, of course, will have to be eliminated.

Hey Red Dog

Pourquoi repondre? America did not elect a black President if you really want to split hairs. Mr. Obama is biracial from my perspective. Am I wrong? People like Moran cannot help but play the race card. What's the alternative, will they present Obama’s record in the past 2 years?

Good luck America with people like Moran you will be a divided country for decades to come but bravo America you did elect a biracial man who passes himself as black whenever its convenient. You are right though... Only the left see color...

I’m so white and pale that my co-workers called me “Dr. Death” — and I voted for Alan Keyes (an ACTUAL black person, as opposed to Hussein who’s not all that black). Don’t these people understand that the race card has become tiresome to just about everyone over the past year or so?

puzzling since enough people liked him enough to elect him..................

ummm. Then something must have changed. AFAIK, his skin color is still the same.
