The Republican National Committee's Stupid Kwanzaa Statement
Breitbart ^ | Dec. 26, 2013 | Jerome Hudson

Posted on 12/27/2013 5:03:45 AM PST by PROCON

The Republican National Committee released a statement Friday, commemorating Kwanzaa. There's just one problem, the entire holiday is a fake and was invented out of thin air by a radical ex-con named Ron Karenga.

Karenga invented Kwanzaa in 1966 and fashioned the phony holiday as a black alternative to Christmas. Karenga wanted a holiday that was less Eurocentric than Christmas which he considered the commercial exploitation of African Americans.

The kicker about the Pubs releasing a dumb@$$ statement acknowledging Kwanzaa is that if they had NOT, no one would have noticed!

Well, that should pretty much destroy any remaining interest in Kwanzaa in the community of color. Thanks Procon.

We need a National ‘Happy Unicorn’ day... where we celebrate the idiocy of made-up stuff like global warming, club of rome, peak oil, etc.. etc...etc...

That said, there’s nothing wrong with wishing someone a happy Kawanza Day...

Happy Unicorn Day!

"..........which he considered the commercial exploitation of African Americans."

What's so funny is that Kwaanza has now become a commercial exploitation of African Americans, specifically.

Would this be a RF Unicorn?

I’m introducing a bill in Congress, called the ARFUA...
“Affordable Rainbow-Farting Unicorn Act”.

I agree. These people are killing the Grand Old Party.

It seems to be their intent.

If they think hey can get elected without Conservative Republicans they are dead wrong.

Like you, I swallowed hard and pulled the lever for McCain. And hundreds of other RINO’s. But what is the point. The country is now lost to the coalition of the socialists and the statists. The tipping point is reached, passed and only a distant memory. All that can be done now is to make the majority miserable in their dishonesty until the union of states collapses like the USSR, which we have essentially become.

I hold no hope for the future of the country I love. Its gone. Someday, there will be another country created from a militant and committed regional minority on this continent. But, by then, I will be long gone. I wish the future patriots luck. They’ll need it.

I always had a hard time taking a holiday tradition seriously when it’s younger than I am.

They think that they can but mexicans will vote for communists... it is what they do... and homosexuals will vote for satan’s party because their life is built around an abominable sin unto GOD and dims will by and large either not vote or vote for the party that they think that the rats still are... circa 75 to 100 years ago. Socialists and communists are already voting in a unified block for the American stalinist party. Blacks will continue to vote for freebies and the racists that hate them. The gop will die if they screw over Conservatives and one more thing... THOSE POS gop/e POLS WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO REDEFINE CONSERVATISM... BECAUSE THE TEA PARTY IS CONSERVATISM!

“Kwanzaa: holiday from the FBI”

Ann Coulter
Jan 01, 2001

SNIPPET: “Earlier this week, President Clinton issued a formal White House proclamation celebrating the first day of Kwanzaa. His announcement began with some claptrap about preserving “what we value of our past,” and Kwanzaa being a “wonderful example” with its “focus on the values that have sustained African-Americans through the centuries.”

Except for the small historical detail that Kwanzaa was invented in 1966 amidst the madness of the multicultural ‘60s by a black radical stooge of the FBI, Ron Karenga, a.k.a. Dr. Maulana Karenga. Karenga was a founder of United Slaves, a violent nationalist rival to the Black Panthers and a dupe of the FBI.

In what was probably ultimately a foolish gamble, during the violent ‘60s, the FBI encouraged the most offensive black nationalist organizations in order both to discredit and split the left. The more preposterous the organization, the better. Karenga’s United Slaves was perfect. Despite public perception blending the black activists of the ‘60s, the Black Panthers did not hate whites and did not seek armed revolution. That was the trope of Karenga’s United Slaves. In the annals of the American ‘60s, Karenga was the Father Gapon, stooge of the czarist police.

Whether Karenga was a willing dupe, or just a dupe, remains unclear.”

“The TRUTH about Kwanzaa”

Tony Snow
December 31, 1999

SNIPPET: “http://www.jewishworldreview.com — BLACKS IN AMERICA have suffered an endless series of insults and degradations, the latest of which goes by the name of Kwanzaa.

Ron Karenga (aka Dr. Maulana Ron Karenga) invented the seven-day feast (Dec. 26-Jan. 1) in 1966, branding it a black alternative to Christmas. The idea was to celebrate the end of what he considered the Christmas-season exploitation of African Americans.

According to the official Kwanzaa Web site — as opposed, say, to the Hallmark Cards Kwanzaa site — the celebration was designed to foster “conditions that would enhance the revolutionary social change for the masses of Black Americans” and provide a “reassessment, reclaiming, recommitment, remembrance, retrieval, resumption, resurrection and rejuvenation of those principles (Way of Life) utilized by Black Americans’ ancestors.”

Karenga postulated seven principles: unity, self-determination, collective work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity and faith, each of which gets its day during Kwanzaa week. He and his votaries also crafted a flag of black nationalism and a pledge: “We pledge allegiance to the red, black, and green, our flag, the symbol of our eternal struggle, and to the land we must obtain; one nation of black people, with one G-d of us all, totally united in the struggle, for black love, black freedom, and black self-determination.”

Now, the point: There is no part of Kwanzaa that is not fraudulent.”

If the Left can use the Democrat party to accomplish its goals, then we should be able to do the same with the Republicans, but it will take work. The reason the left owns the Democrats is they worked at it. Daydreaming about a third party is looking for a shortcut where none exists. There are no silver bullets unfortunately. There is only work.

Well, some felt they didn't want Christmas and view it as white America so as said here same person who was obsessed with black everything invented Kwanzaa.
So what, people are free to worship Ford Pintos if they want to. Worship the cosmic muffin for all I care.

If the RNC wants to wish everyone a happy what ever, so be it.

Meanwhile they are a failed organization of establishment spineless mostly dirty politicians and I won't EVER again give them a nickel and will only directly support the candidate I want to.
IMO the efforts of the RNC are about to get lots more of the Democrats elected than need be and they are on their way out as the wig party was IMO.

The Democrats are a party and are leftist communist SOBs, but we know who they are and they act on who they are.

Who are the Republicans and what do they have a fire in the belly to do? That is why they are going extinct rightfully so.
