On Martin Bashir's television program this afternoon, Democratic strategist and MSNBC analyst Karen Finney said that Republicans are supporting Herman Cain because of his race:
One of the things about Herman Cain is, I think that he makes that white Republican base of the party feel okay, feel like they are not racist because they can like this guy," Finney said. "I think he giving that base a free pass. And I think they like him because they think he's a black man who knows his place. I know that's harsh, but that's how it sure seems to me."

It’s almost like the liberals have to keep pointing out the color of his skin, perhaps in hopes that they will stir up some kind of racial backlash. These fools Martin Bashir and Karen Finney are missing the signifigance of Herman Cain’s appeal which has nothing to do with his race, instead it is his message. But what these liberal racebaiters just don’t understand that unlike the democratic party most Republicans are looking for substance and not just symbolism in their candidates.
Top of the economic ladder? Head of the party? POTUS?
I'm sure that's what you meant, Karen. /s You are a vile, despicable, racist pig.
Translation: Cain is a black man who isn’t staying in his place.
Well, that is about as vile and racist as one can get.
The Dems have inspired me to update my tagline.
Beautiful High Yella people like me don’t like them real dark Black People like Cain and Judge Thomas taking on airs;..., give the coloreds a bad name, like Uppity field hands you know.
Now, Barak and Belafonte are OK, Master Biden likes their tone of voice and skin. Pay attention now, and if you can not knock them down and out, tell them what their place is in this Mulatto world; Ask Professor Gates. or REv Wright, or REv Jackson or better yet Rev Sharpton if you need help.
I think you may have articulated the Democrats attitude precisely.
A truly sad state of affairs in this day and age.
As I’ve said for the umpteenth time-—Freud called this “projection”.
Keep this in mind every time you hear such pearls of analytical wisdom
from the Left, especially where it touches on the issue of race.
They obviously figure that the ONLY way to take the onus of racism off themselves, where they privately know it lives, is to almost hydraulically lift it and place it on “the other side”. It’s so blatant now as to be laughable, but this is about the only card they’ve got left to play.
Obviously, Cain knows his place - the CEO’s office of a multinational company he founded and developed.
To others he is known as “the Boss”
This dumba** should be fired IMMEDIATELY for such a racist comment!
oh...
wait...
It can’t be racist if uttered-while-Democrat, can it..
You know you are RIGHT about calling him Barry Dunham, most of the ancient laws of naming children is that if there was NOT a birth certificate, by law they had to put the mothers surname down for the child. JUST found this out yesterday doing research for family studies. He takes the servitude of his mom, which means he was born FREE, and he doesn’t have any slave blood. HE ISN”T BLACK.
MLK would be glad he is a Republican.
This makes me want to scream! Knows his place??? Yeah - his place is in the White House! The man rose from the bottom and got to the top! And I doubt he had the help Obama did. The left is just plain racist! They are the ones who want to keep blacks on the “plantation”. I want black Americans to become successful so they can own the plantation!
FUMB!
This is an interesting unreported $1,250,000 Services In Kind campaign contribution to the Obama for president campaign.Its made once again by MSNBC through the Martin Bashir show.
The contribution is the counter campaign theme He (Cain) knows his place Which will be played up particularly in the black communities throughout the US.. Implying Cain who is black is feining a run for president on the Republican party ticket because everybody knows Blacks only vote democrat and hes only there to split off votes from the black community. Because we know Republicans hate blacks.
This theme will be repeated through out the URSIK network ...Of course its racist but we know only Republicans are racists.

Why doesn’t he just quit being ambiguous and tell us what he really thinks?
I liked a lot of the stuff I was reading about Cain before I ever came across the fact that he’s black. There are some things about him I have serious questions about, but unlike in the last presidential election, he’s at least proven capable of running a lemonade stand (which I still doubt that either McCain or Obama could do).
He certainly does know his place! That place is 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
