Politico ^ | 4/27/2014 | BURGESS EVERETT

Posted on 04/27/2014 7:38:28 PM PDT by God luvs America

Donald Sterling was a modest donor to several Democratic politicians, long before racist remarks were attributed to the owner of the NBA’s Los Angeles Clippers. Sterling donated a combined of $4,000 to Democratic Sens. Bill Bradley of New Jersey and Patrick Leahy of Vermont as well as then-State Controller Gray Davis of California in the late 1980s and early 1990s, according to a database on OpenSecrets.

WOW and this is coming from Politico..guess they can’t deny it..but Paul Begala tried to, saying that Conservatives should “Check their donor list” once people informed the buffoon that Sterling is a lib who gave money to ONLY Democrat candidates..he changed his tune by saying “Both sides should condemn racism” LOL poor guy, almost feel sorry for the prick

What a misleading article. Everyone knows that racists are all conservative Republicans. The MSM has presented plenty of evidence to back that up.

/s (of course)

I’ve seen little clips of what he said but I just listened to the entire conversation. She would drive any man insane. He is a dirtbag but she is certainly no better.

Looks like Politico is trying to spin and minimize Sterling’s support of Democrats.

Sometimes I am pleasantly surprised by the brief moment of honesty in the MSM (okay, at least something almost close to the MSM)

Then I know a new day will dawn and once again things will return to normal

“He is a dirtbag but she is no better.”

I totally agree. And I am beginning to think Sterling has a touch of dementia.

Oh hell no. Revel in his suffering. Think of it as Karmic justice.

After hearing the recording, he says he loves blacks and a lot of other things you wouldn’t expect a racist to say. TMZ found it necessary to just go with a few quick snippets of what was said.

It may be more that he just doesn’t like Magic Johnson. Who knows for sure but she was intentionally leading him into saying bad things.

He may be scum but so is she and TMZ for the way they ran the story.

If you want to shakedown somebody in this country, just accuse them of racism, works every time.

That would be a good reason for him not wanting Magic anywhere around. Not only that but I wouldn’t be seeing any woman banging an HIV+ man.

Well, there are a lot of Freepers, who whenever a Democrat says something racist want to defend them and treat them as a saint.

Are you sure about that? He may not have AIDS, but that doens't mean he can't pass it on to someone else.
