It’s not “catering to the race card crap” to point out that having all white males not only looks really bad in that it hands the left a wonderful and completely undeniable club to beat us with, but also just MIGHT be a symptom that attitudes such as yours and Boner’s are a part of the problem. The people who whine and caterwaul about “The Blacks always vote Democrat” are as much a problem and the very thing they complain about. Crying “racism” is always the first sign of a racist and an indicator that one has no other valid arguments.
Unless and until the Republican party can face the fact that it *IS* the party of wealthy white males it is going to keep losing. The faces of the House leadership are a symptom of something bad, and bitching that “Da Black Dey vote for Obama an’ dere Dem Masters’ is a bunch of useless, hokey, inaccurate, racist and worst of all INEFFECTIVE BS.
PERCEPTION *IS* REALITY.
"Perception is reality" is part and parcel of the "it's all relative/create your own truth" leftists bulls***. The reality is that pandering to leftists and skeered that they will use something to attack R/conservatives with, and therefore trying to put up some dark faces or females so they will "like" Republicans means you are advocating being a serf, a slave, of the Leftist Masters.
The R party does not consist of rich white men. There are millions and millions of people who vote "R" who are actual conservatives, and they come in all colors, all races, all kinds of ancestor locations, and both men and women. Many are poor, or lower middles class, and they live all over the country
. The R "leaders" are what is the problem. What we need is REAL conservatives, who are fighters, and let the chips fall where they may. And the chances are excellent that such principled, courageous and articulate conservatives will win elections, if and when election fraud is also defeated.
The fact that you put me and Boehner together shows that you, pardon the expression, have excrement for brains. You think I agree with him? My attitude is like his? I think he's a pantswetting syhophant elitist DC insider and his little gang of unprincipled, cowardly, corrupt and moral compass-less capons are the problem. Conservatives such as myself are not the problem. If you've got race colored glasses on (and you obviously do), you're also part of the problem.
And chew on this: Did the leftists/Dems like Allen West? He's a "person of color". DId they praise Rs for having a "person of color" in Congress? Did that gain points with the MSM? How about Michelle Bachmann? She's a woman. Do they give Rs points for women Congressmen? What about Palin, a woman running for Veep? Did they give her or Rs points for that? Obviously not. Black conservatives are "oreos", conservative women are "rednecks", etc. The fact that you think pandering to leftists is a winning strategy reveals a great deal about you. In fact, I just re-read your comments, and your use of fake vernacular and basically accusing Freepers of being racist is abhorrent.
