    Democrats are OVER without 95% of Black Votes and they know it. They practically lynch Black Conservatives... So far the Blacks have bought the idea that things are getting better for them, white Democrats believe that too but it's a sham..

  2. Ah, I see that Aff Action is the talking point of day, spoon feed to the right.

    OK, just for fun:

    Mitt Romney: The Affirmative Action Candidate
    September 3, 2012 at 10:26 am Ed Brayton


    As Newt Gingrich and many other conservatives continue to demand that Obama’s college transcripts be released, with the unstated implication — read: dog whistle — being that Obama must be a product of affirmative action who didn’t really earn his academic success, Ta-Nehisi Coates wonders why such questions are never asked about rich white candidates.

    But there’s also something else — the frame of skepticism is, as always, framed around Obama, not around Romney. No one wonders what advantages accrued to Mitt Romney, a man who spent his early life ensconced in the preserve of malignant and absolutist affirmative action that was metropolitan Detroit. Romney’s Detroit (like most of the country) prohibited black people from the best jobs, the best schools, the best neighborhoods, and the best of everything else. The exclusive Detroit Golf Club, a short walk from one of Romney’s childhood homes, didn’t integrate until 1986. No one is skeptical of Mitt Romney because of the broader systemic advantages he enjoyed, advantages erected largely to ensure that this country would ever be run by men who looked like him.

    So much for that 14th Amendment referred to. Nice to hide behind, but when not practiced, then of no value. I do think that AA has been around too long, and could stand either an overhaul or elimination, but when there are still flagrant violations taking place in regards to equal opportunities, who knows?

    That's true. I know some pop out a new child every year. It's like getting a welfare raise every year.

  4. Liberal logic for you.

    That's kinda like a whorehouse patron expecting a "virgin".

  5. No, people like you would lock out even the most qualified people of color. Mexicans, Arabs, blacks, Indians, take your pick. So AA states that slots must be held in relation to geographical presence of the minority. What I find most funny, since we are 12% of the population, AA states that a company must have 12 blacks out of 100 on the payroll in certain positions. You are one of those white boys who is upset because he is worried about not making the cut for the other 88 positions available.

    You are a joke, man.

  6. BS. We are 12% of the population, we can break a tie, but that is about it.

    So, now instead of insisting you are an individual and blacks cannot be thought of as a group, you join the group thinking and the racist philosphy of blacks. That's called 'having it both ways' and destroys your arguments.

    I see this all the time in the Left media. They explain what Conservatives are "really thinking" then argue against that.
    This dog whistle metaphor is just a way to take a Conservative point and turn it to something that can be debated.

    The point of getting college transcripts is to see if Obama applied to these schools as a foreign national. This would question his citizenship.
    His PR firms did list him as a Kenyan for 15 years.

    Second reason is to see who paid for his school. Which communist country or group funded his $500,000 education.
