Black conservative ping

If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)

Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.

How many blacks did Bubba throw to the wolves, as President? I remember there was Sister Souljah, Lani Guinier, and Joycelyn Elders. Were there more?

Who gives a sh*t? I have heard entirely enough about Harry Belafonte. Let's move on and let him float back down out of our consciousness.

I'm sick and tired of reading what these "you're Republican and not black enough" types have to say. Now, if they want to get somewhere, they need to chase down the white guys who walk around wearing FUBU and Sean Jean clothing. Only then will progress be made...

I thought of Clinton as the white master of the liberal blacks. He made sure they stayed on the plantation with vacant promises and they rewarded him by calling him their first black president. Bush appoints for talent and ability and look what the results are - ostracism by the owned ones.

George W. Bush, unlike his predecessor, appointed QUALIFIED people to SERIOUS Cabinet positions. Bubba Clinton (just as he did everything) only appointed blacks for show -- pure tokenism.

[Further enhancing the irony of Clinton's placement in the Arkansas Black Hall of Fame this weekend]

GW is the best thing that ever happened to this country. His style is the catalyst that is allowing the self-implosion of the Left.

The more they rant, the more we grow.

love it!

Civil rights activist Jesse Jackson jumped into the fray on Sunday when he told a black church that Powell is "not on our team."

Shortly after the Congressional Black Caucus helped to defeat an attempt to repeal the legal requirement for churches to stay out of politics. Hypocrites.

Yes, Bubba did laugh.... probably because he knew that Ron took some nasty Bubba secrets to his grave with him. (An untimely end for yet another Klintoon cronie)

Why doesn't the Banana Boat man just come right on out and say it: "Rice and Powell aren't really black..."

They are just pretend black people. Everyone know REAL blacks have framed pictures of Rev. Je$$e Jack$on and Al $harpton adoring the walls of their $1500/mo slums...

That's about 23% of the African-Americans.

Unfortunately, far less than 23% vote that way.

Maybe they'll send a message to Harry.

Ron Brown ended up dead with .45-caliber hole in the top of his skull (that following a plane-crash).

No official autopsy was ever conducted.

Wasn't it interesting how a LOT of customary stuff didn't get done, in that administration?
