Democrats are obsessed with race. They can’t stop thinking about it, they can’t stop talking about it.

Normal people, white, black or in between, are not obsessed, and don’t feel the need to go on about it endlessly.

But if you do feel this need to endlessly think and talk about race, you are definitely a Democrat. If you don’t feel this need, or interest, or compulsion, or obsession, you are probably not a Democrat. If you are a Republican, I’m not surprised, because typically Republicans of all colors are not particularly obsessed with the subject. If you aren’t a Republican, you are no doubt headed our way. The light is on and we’ve put out the welcome mat.

She’s right, but not for the reason she thinks she is right. The conversations thus far have been dishonest because the people of color have simply been shouting “shut up”.

for too long we have not had these honest discussions about race.

That's right. We've had nothing but black racists screaming insults and making irrational demands. To hell with that crap.

The “revolution” will never end for some folks. And Democrats like terrorist Bill Ayers (for example) capitalize on it.

Ok, I'll open the Conversation with a quote:



Your move, Kamala.

I am an octogenarian and we have been having that conversation as long as I can remember. Also remember it all began with the first shots of the War Between the States - long before my time.

“the country has not had an honest conversation about race for a long time”

She’s right. And when we do, she’s going to be really unhappy.

Actually, I think she’s right. We’ve had plenty of lectures, but no real 2-way conversations. And it’s not one she’s likely to want to have.

We have not had an honest conversation.

All we have had is white folks being berated constantly. If we dare say anything at all we are howled down.

The worst enemy that the Negro have is this white man that runs around here drooling at the mouth professing to love Negros and calling himself a liberal, and it is following these white liberals that has perpetuated problems that Negros have. If the Negro wasn’t taken, tricked or deceived by the white liberal, then Negros would get together and solve our own problems. I only cite these things to show you that in America, the history of the white liberal has been nothing but a series of trickery designed to make Negros think that the white liberal was going to solve our problems. Our problems will never be solved by the white man.

The only conversation democrats ever have about race, is making sure that racism remains front-and-center, and as an everlasting issue that they can exploit.

IOW, they will NEVER want to end the issue of racism, and they are the one most responsible for racism continuing to exist and they are the ones making sure that it gets worse. Otherwise, blacks and Hispanic and other minorities might finally put the issue behind them and focus on other important issues in their lives. Can’t have that, otherwise, democrats would lose their most important issue in every campaign and debate. Racism: it’s what democrats do.

She grew up a little rich kid in California with foreign-born parents.

For a while.

Then her parents divorced and she finished growing up in Montreal.

Maybe she should have that conversation in Canada.

She wants an honest conversation without race realism. No facts allowed.

Capitalism - Oingo Boingo

There’s nothing wrong with Capitalism
There’s nothing wrong with free enterprise
Don’t try to make me feel guilty
I’m so tired of hearing you cry

There’s nothing wrong with making some profit
If you ask me I’ll say it’s just fine
There’s nothing wrong with wanting to live nice

I’m so tired of hearing you whine
About the revolution
Bringin’ down the rich
When was the last time you dug a ditch, baby!

If it ain’t one thing
Then it’s the other
Any cause that crosses your path
Your heart bleeds for anyone’s brother
I’ve got to tell you you’re a pain in the ass

You criticize with plenty of vigor
You rationalize everything that you do
With catchy phrases and heavy quotations
And everybody is crazy but you

You’re just a middle class, socialist brat
From a suburban family and you never really had to work
And you tell me that we’ve got to get back
To the struggling masses (whoever they are)

You talk, talk, talk about suffering and pain
Your mouth is bigger than your entire brain
What the hell do you know about suffering and pain . . .

There’s nothing wrong with Capitalism
There’s nothing wrong with Capitalism
There’s nothing wrong with Capitalism
There’s nothing wrong with Capitalism

Who died and made her arbiter of what an "honest" conversation even is, and whether such a conversation is even necessary?

Regards,

Isn’t she married to a white guy?

Why yes she is now that you mention it.
