Miller knows race-baiting lifted GOP (Cynthia Tucker Alert!)

As the nation grows browner, more and more voters will be drawn to the all-inclusive ideals espoused by the Democrats

Ah, yes. The act of pandering.

Tell me dear Cynthia....what has the democratic party EVER DONE FOR PEOPLE OF COLOR?

[William Martel]

What Little Cynthia seems not to recognize is that it was the Southern wing of the Democratic Party that always enabled it to win the big elections, and that without the south in any presidential election, the DNC is up the creek without a paddle.

The Democrats didn't lose the south because they ceased to be racists. Democrats are as racist as ever. Democrats lost the south because they fell off the cliff of far-leftism.

[sauropod]

Cynthia has a problem.

It is the 'Rat party that tried to keep slavery viable as an institution (and in part responsible for the Civil War where more than 600,000 Americans died).

It was the 'Rat party that is the party of Jim Crow.

It is the 'Rat party that tried to hold up the civil rights bill of 1964.

It is the 'Rat party that is the party of Bull Connor.

It is the 'Rat party that is the party of George Wallace.

It is the 'Rat party that is the party of Orville Faubus.

It is the 'Rat party that is the party of "Sheets" Byrd.

Cynthia Tucker disgusts me. 'Pod.

...to Gov. Lester Maddox, who remained an unrepentant segregationist until the day he died...

And so was Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood, at who's alter the left is required to take its most sacred sacrament - abortion on demand.

Subtext: "white southerners are racists"

Reality: "white southerners are sick of getting the short end of the racial policy stick"

Did someone break wind or is it just Cynthia Tucker?

[beaureguard]

LOL!

[cyborg]

Can anyone refute what she is saying with respect to the southern strategy?

[L98Fiero]

Whether it's denouncing fictional welfare queens, saluting the Confederate battle flag or showing up to speak at Bob Jones University, the GOP knows how to race-bait.

These are examples of "race-baiting"?!? What kind of Bizarro-world does this dim-wit live in? Also, one does not salute a battle flag. Sheesh, why bother?

[Wardawg]

Ah, the enlightened liberals like Robert Kkk Byrd.

[cyborg]

How's that? If anyone is being oppressed, let them count their blessings living in this country in this millenium.

[Uncle Vlad]

Uh, hey, Cynthia...sweetie...don't know how to break it to you, but it the Civil Rights Act of 1964 wouldn't have passed if it hadn't been for Republicans in Congress and the Senate. Just thought you'd appreciate a brief moment of accuracy and clarity...right. As you were.

[The Great Yazoo]

One-Note Cynthia is back at it again! Georgia and Georgians are soooooooooo racist that they can't get over the end of Jim Crow.

My family just about consists of those rural white folk who Cynthia thinks are awfully racist. But my grandfather became a Republican when FDR told him that the government would decide what crops he could plant. He then joined the 40 percent of American Blacks who voted for Ike.

From Cynthia's perspective, race is not an issue, it is the ONLY issue. Every other policy debate (taxes, security, regulation, etc.) plays second fiddle to the race card.

Cynthia is being racist herself by viewing the world solely through racial glasses. Her view opposes Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s vision of considering a person based on the content of his character and not the color of his skin.

What's a mossback?

Cynthia, what is your take on current Senator Robert Byrd (D, WVa) a card carrying member of the KKK, who said he would never serve with Negros in the U S military; or Senator J William Fulbright (D, Ark.) you know Bill Clinton's mentor, who voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1964; or Senator Albert Gore Sr. (D, Tenn), you know Al Gore's father, who also voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1964. It seems that Democrats only become hypocrits when they question the Democrat party. However, they are okay, at least with Cynthia, even when they oppose so-called "democratic" reforms, and are racist to the core, just so they remain Democrats. By the way, Cynthia, one last point: The Civil Rights Act of 1964 was filibustered by Democrats. The filibuster was broken by Republican senators and the legislation passed. That is history, Cynthia, live with it.

the Civil Rights Act of 1964 wouldn't have passed if it hadn't been for Republicans in Congress and the Senate

Uncle..please, please no facts here....we're dealing with FEEEEEEELINGS.

Remember, if you say you aren't a racist, you are not a racist.
