NAACP Lawsuit Against Clinton

Clinton Writes Off South For Democrats

December 19, 2002

On Wednesday, Don Bill Clinton wrote off the South for the Democratic Party by weighing in on Trent Lott's statements. He called the GOP hypocrites for turning on Lott, because racism is how they gained a majority in the South. He lumped all of you non-people of color in the South, even if you or your family emigrated there from Ohio just last week, in with the KKK and all those 60s Democrat segregationists.

What does Clinton listing all these examples of supposed tricks to keep Democrat voters away from the polls say about what he thinks of their brains? While we're at it, is Bill Clinton not a son of the South? I guess that despite his efforts to present himself as a Rhodes Scholar (dropout), he's just one of the good old boys that he's now impugning.

After all, Clinton loved J. William Fulbright – an unapologetic segregationist. Clinton says the GOP used the Confederate flag. Never mind that it was Democrat Fritz Hollings who ran that flag up over the statehouse as South Carolina governor. Never mind that Clinton did nothing in his 10 years as Arkansas governor to remove the Confederate star from the state flag - or that the NAACP sued Clinton for failing to enforce the Voting Rights Act! Forget that Carl Limbacher writes in Newsmax.com about Lani Guinier's report on Clinton pandering to segregationist whites.

While people of both races have moved on, the Democrats insist on speaking the language of 1932 on the eve of 2003. They already have the black votes who'll respond to this sewn up, which is why I say that this kind of talk can easily backfire on the Democrats just as Tom Daschle's whining did. James Carville knows this, which is why he forgives Lott. Clinton thinks he's saying positive things to his own Democrats, but this is offensive to the very people they need to have electoral opportunities in the South.

Lani Guinier: Clinton Pandered to Segregationist Whites

After he was sued in the late 1980s by the NAACP's Legal Defense Fund for failing to enforce the Voting Rights Act in Arkansas, then-Gov. Bill Clinton suggested to a group of pro-segregation whites that they were being unfairly targeted by civil rights laws as a result of the South's loss in the Civil War, according to one-time Clinton administration Civil Rights Division nominee Lani Guinier.

"In the late 1980s, in a particularly tense meeting in southeastern Arkansas - a section of the Mississippi Delta region where antebellum social relations are still in many respects the order of the day - [Guinier's friend] Dayna [Cunningham] and a local LDF cooperating lawyer were part of a handful of black people there to discuss remedies for a highly contentious LDF voting rights suit," wrote Guinier in her 1998 memoir, "Lift Every Voice."

"The meeting turned sour when one of the local whites demanded to know why, in his view, the whites were always made to pay for others' problems. Other whites in the group began to echo his charge. ..."

Guinier continued:

"Bill Clinton, the lead defendant in the case, took to the podium to respond. In a tone of resignation, Clinton said, 'We have to pay because we lost.'" Guinier said Cunningham inferred that Clinton was referring to the South's Civil War loss as well as his loss in the court case.

"Clinton had so irresponsibly pandered to the backwards feeling of the white constituency" in his speech about the voting rights lawsuit, Cunningham told Guinier.

News of Clinton's attempt to pander to Arkansas whites who were angry that he'd lost a lawsuit for not enforcing the Voting Rights Act comes just hours after the ex-president accused Republicans of doing the same thing.

"They try to suppress black voting, they ran on the Confederate flag in Georgia and South Carolina, and from top to bottom the Republicans supported it," Clinton said of the GOP on Wednesday, when asked to comment on the continuing Trent Lott flap.

In fact, the Arkansas state flag added a single star above the state's name in 1923 to commemorate its membership in the Confederacy, a design that remained unaltered throughout Clinton's five terms as governor.

After tapping Guinier for the top Justice Department civil rights post in 1993, Clinton abruptly yanked her nomination after critics labeled her a "Quota Queen." Guinier said she felt betrayed by Clinton, whom she considered a friend since their days together at Yale Law School, and was angered when he called her "anti-democratic" in a nationally televised address announcing he was scuttling her nomination.

Hillary 'FJB' Clinton: Bush Ran Racist Primary Campaign

New York Sen. Hillary Clinton charged Friday that President Bush employed racist tactics during his primary battle against Arizona Sen. John McCain, while warning that the resignation of Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott would not "cleanse the Republican Party of their constant exploitation of race."

"The campaign for then-Governor Bush in South Carolina had a huge outreach effort to say [McCain] adopted a black baby," Clinton complained to reporters, a reference to leaflets that were circulated about McCain's dark-skinned daughter while Bush was fighting for his political life after losing the New Hampshire primary.

"I mean, what [Lott] did was state publicly what many of them have stated privately over many years," Clinton charged.

Though Bush's team denied any connection to the racist ploy, the McCain campaign was deeply angered by the effort - and the Arizona Republican is said to believe to this day that Bush sanctioned the race-based smear against his daughter, whom he and his wife Cindy brought to the U.S. from Bangladesh.

According to McCain biographer Paul Alexander, the GOP maverick was furious over the leaflets, which referred to his daughter using the "N"-word. "He believed that was over the line," the author told NewsMax in October. "But I think they were naive. If you're running a presidential campaign, these are the kinds of attacks you have to expect."

Alexander said that at the time, McCain was reluctant to fight fire with fire. But with eerie prescience in light of Sen. Clinton's complaint yesterday, he added, "I'll tell you what the Clintons would have done. They would have hired a private detective, they would have dug up all the dirt and they would have used it."

Hours before Bush's political team decided to give Sen. Lott the final push out the door, NewsMax warned that the decision to switch rather than fight would inevitably make Bush's South Carolina primary battle a target for Democrats seeking to tar the White House on race:

"Now that Jesse, Spike and the rest of the gang know they've got the GOP on the run, look for them to target the White House next," we predicted. "Since Jackson & Co.'s Election 2000 Florida 'disenfranchisement' conspiracy had to be abandoned due to lack of evidence, perhaps they'll move on to the president's 2000 South Carolina primary campaign, which still has John McCain's supporters grumbling over the Bushies' allegedly racist tactics."

And just as they failed to respond to the attacks on Lott with examples of Democratic Party racism, the Bush team isn't expected to counter Clinton's attack by citing her own record of anti-Semitism and racial insensitivity.

In 1996, for instance, Mrs. Clinton was criticized for using what the Los Angeles Times described as "a mock African-American accent" to portray San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown as ignorant for thinking that the Democratic fund-raising group Emily's List was an actual person. Videotape of the incident reviewed by NewsMax shows the then-first lady offering a lighthearted but derogatory impersonation of Brown's speech patterns.

In 1998, Mrs. Clinton campaigned for Democratic Sen. Charles Schumer, referring to his then-opponent, Sen. Al D'Amato as "Sen. Tomato," according the late Barbara Olson in her book "Hell to Pay."

In 2000, Mrs. Clinton was accused of calling Paul Fray, the campaign manager of her husband's losing 1976 congressional campaign, a "f---king Jew bastard" during a heated argument after the loss. Two witnesses, his wife and then-campaign aide Neil McDonald, backed Fray's account.

Prior to Fray's allegation becoming public, former Clinton bodyguard Larry Patterson told NewsMax that Mrs. Clinton used the phrase alleged by Fray on numerous occasions.

The mainstream press has declined to revisit their accounts in the wake of Mrs. Clinton's attempts to portray President Bush as a racist.

BWAHAHAHAHA....

Ring Dem bells, Sweet Justice, tell yer Congressman...
Ring Dem bells so the World will know McAuliffe's SCUM!!
Folks, the Networks are asleep...
But their Power's weak...
And the Country's still filled with lost sheep.

Ring Dem bells...fer Left's Blind Ignorance!!

Mudboy Slim

Folks, it's time we demonstrated the Power of FReepin' to those who would deprive us of Justice and Liberty!! Terry McAuliffe, outspoken proponent of Campaign Finance Reform and Chairman of the DNC, has committed multiple FELONIES to get to his position of prominence in the DemocRATic Party, yet no one seems willing to hold him accountable!! As Bill Clinton's Chief Fundraiser in the '96 Presidential elections, McAuliffe was the mastermind behind the Union/DemocRAT scheme to bilk hard-working blue-collar workers out of Millions of Dollars of Pension Funds so as to provide Bill Clinton with the cash to retain his position of Power, and no INDICTMENT has been forthcoming. Elle Bee tells me there is a 5-year Statute of Limitations--expiring this Fall--on this Crime, and George Bush's Attorney General, John Ashcroft, has not said one word about holding the DNC Chairman accountable for his crimes!! THIS INJUSTICE SHALL NOT STAND!!

A small contingent of Justice-loving FReepers have--for over over twenty months--been promoting a series of threads exposing McAuliffe's long criminal history, but now it's time to take the Truth beyond FreeRepublic!! Please assist our efforts with your emails, phone calls, and snail mails to those who need to expose this lowlife SCUM for all the World to see!!

Thanks for your help in Ringin' the Bells of Justice!!

FReegards...MUD
