“I think if President Obama came out as gay, he wouldn't lose the black vote," a cheerful Van Jones told MSNBC this afternoon. . .

Finally, we’ve achieved Rev. King’s dream of a day when we judge people by the color of their skin rather than by the content of their character.

If only he were alive to see it.

Is there something you want to tell us Comrade Jones ?

But you are right ... Zero could be the next Charlie Manson and the majority of blacks would vote for him

“I think if President Obama came out as admits he's gay, he wouldn't lose the black vote....

There, fixed it.

Hey van, the closet wears no walls... the guy’s gay as rainbow flag.

[Jedidah]

That’s what I suspect: trial balloon.

Kinda’ think that we’re being set up for the eventual showing of a Brietbart video of our impostor in chief being shown as a pillow biter. Thus, he can come out and hope the furor dies down. Isn’t this man-child something?

My only 2 thoughts on the subject: Duh, we know that already ... blacks will never abandon a black politician or a democrat in general; and why the heck do we care what Van Jones thinks?

Sent it to him...

Being gay could be viewed as a bad thing? Who knew? Imagine if a republican had said this about another republican.

[Salvavida]

That ship has already sailed.

In the recent Mississippi and Alabama republican primaries CNN did exit polling.

In both states only 2% of the republican voters were identified as black.

It would help explain his taste in women

Ya' mean bestiality?

” Obama wouldn’t lose the black vote even if he came out and said his white half had shot Trayvon Martin in cold blood.”

LMAO!!

[X-spurt]

Obama Wouldn’t Lose Black Vote Even If ...... THAT is the problem. Just how can the liberals not see the black vote sticking with nobama as anything except engendered racism and especially to anounce it publically.

Rednecks have been right all along!

[WPaCon]

This may deserve to be front page news.

Sister_T, You said exactly what I was thinking. “Why say something like that” and then “maybe he is setting up a future narrative of some type”.

Similar situation happened when Stefanopolis began that debate with the question about contraception. Everyone wondered where in the world that came from and the rest is history.
