"A Black Man Who Knows His Place"
Townhall.com ^ | October 31, 2011 | Bob Beauprez

Posted on 10/31/2011 9:27:47 AM PDT by Kaslin

Karen Finney is not just any Democrat; she was the spokeswoman for the Democrat National Committee, served in the Clinton White House, was the press secretary for Hillary Clinton's New York Senate race, and is a veteran of four Presidential Campaigns.

Tasked with analyzing Herman Cain's surge in the GOP's Presidential campaign for MSNBC last week, Finney offered up the most outrageous, insulting, demeaning single sentence we have ever heard – particularly by someone who supposedly speaks for an entire national political party.

"I think he makes that white Republican base of the party feel okay, feel that they're not racist because they can like this guy, I think they like him because he’s a black man who knows his place."MSNBC's Karen Finney on Herman Cain

Finney said this about a man who overcame very humble beginnings and every other road block life threw in front of him.  He became a highly successful business executive, led a trade association, was the Chairman of the Board of the Kansas City Federal Reserve Bank, a popular Radio personality, and now a leading contender to be the Republican nominee for President of the United States. 

In her attempt to disparage both Herman Cain and the Republican Party, Finney actually told us volumes about herself and the Democrat Party for which she was the designated singular voice.

Cain could take this more personal than you’d think. Cain left the Democrats, so goes his account, because they were so mule headed about insisting they politically owned American Negros. That would be like Republicans insisting they politically owned all white people. Cain’s place sure ain’t on the Democrat plantation and he could deal them a zinger or two to make sure the Democrats don’t forget it.

Hell I’ve seen Perry supporters post twice as bad as what Karen Finney and mean it ten times as more.

What impeccable credentials! Not only does her nonsensical, racist and judgmental statement provide a window into her own soul, but it attests to the fact that she has learned well the cynical views of those whom she has represented!

She has steeped well in Democrat nonsense.

I hope Cain is about to lead a “slave revolt” — right off of the Democrat plantation and never to come back.

The Beauprez piece is about a strategy the democrats will be using directed particularly to the black community. While the Republican primary has not yet cuiled down to two protagonists it seems the democrats feel Cain will not be in the finals.

Once that happens what they will be doing is claim Cain is out because of his race. Democrats have already set the stage by claiming “Cain’s not serious” a theme which is a trap that unfortunately Cains’s Republican opponents have eagerly picked up on and are repeating unwisely..

they like him because he’s a black man who knows his place.

Yes and that place would be the White House.

There are Obama Rat trolls here on Free Republic masquerading as conservatives.

These trolls have a clear intent to bring down republican candidates who have risen in the polls. Obama Rat trolls should be identified and outted.

First with Bachman, then with Perry, now with Cain (and of course, always with Romney), the Obama Rats use a deceptively simple approach.

They camp out on a thread that seems to support a candidate, Cain for example.

They use one-liners and ad hominem insults to attack that candidate, while implying that they support another candidate, for instance, Perry. Then when one visits the Perry threads, that same poster rarely, if ever, appears. When he does, the appearance is luke warm, and mainly directed toward tearing down some other candidate. When challenged, the Obama Rat trolls avoid supporting the candidate they imply that they support.

In addition, the Obama Rats seem to use many of the same talking points, often referring to Mike Huckabee, or some other candidate from the past. They use virulent attacks on individual posters, who disagree with them, to try to drive that poster off the thread.

One need only research the history of comments from suspected Obama Rats to see the pattern.

Obviously, we each have different views on the candidates. Those differing views are worthy of debate.

However, unless a poster starts finding positive points with a candidate, any candidate, with as much vigor as he tears down other candidates, then he is just another shrill Obama Rat troll, not worthy of debate. He should be identified and outted.

Do not underestimate the Obama machine. The following link compares the relative internet capability of that machine utilizing paid staff on Twitter to the significantly lesser capability of each of the republican candidates. Is it even reasonable to presume that the Obama Rats would not have the same capability to influence Free Republic?

“ther democrats started the kkk to prevent blacks from voting.”

The original KKK sprang up naturally during the Reconstruction Era because of abuses by occupying forces and carpetbaggers. No white trash need apply.

It faded out of existence after Reconstruction ended.

The 20th century organization that approprated their name was established by white trash in reaction to the upward mobility of Negroes, Catholics, Jews, and anybody else that hacked them off.

There is more truth about the original KKK in “Gone with the Wind” and “Oldest Living Confederate Widow Tells All” than in all the history books now in print.

And that is what is being said among most black voters.

Which is why Cain is going to have an up hill battle against Obambi. I think he can win, but if he does he will be vilified in the press.

RINOs proved in three 2010 Senate races that they prefer anybody but Conservatives. Christine O’Donnell, Sharron Angle and Joe Miller got done in by the RINOs.

All I can say is, 2012 will be payback time.

HER FIRST 2 WORDS EXPLAIN IT ALL “I THINK”

THIS IS WHAT THEY THINK - NOT WHAT IS REALITY, so you have to ask the real question “An entire political party THINKS this way, so how can we allow such BLATANT RACISM to be elected because they THINK this is the reality when it IS NOT NEAR THE REAL TRUTH.

You’re missing Ms Finney’s point, you dummy!!!! We conservatives are lining up behind a black conservative... to proove were’re not rascist. Obviously you missed the memo sent out by the RNC, suggesting we forgo our preference for WASPs and all vote for the “negro”. cpdiii - please try to keep up with the RNC memos.
