Newt Gingrich Falls for the Race Bait … Gingrich Confronted on Race Agrees to Meet with Al Sharpton

Good grief, Newt Gingrich has taken the “race bait” hook, line and sinker. So is this the brilliance that Gingrich will show as President if nominated by the GOP and wins in 2012? Why on earth would anyone give Al Sharpton the credibility when he is one of the biggest race baiters going? As reported at The Hill, Newt takes the bait and agrees to meet with Al Sharpton.

The man said what Gingrich was asking for amounted to a “new form of slavery” and would force young African Americans to drop out of school.

Gingrich engaged the man, speaking levelly and holding eye contact with him. He said that he suggested the jobs so that “They can get paid — they’d go to school, stay in school instead of dropping out.”

“What I’ve said is I’d like every young American of every ethnic background to have a job,” Gingrich responded. “How does that ratchet it up?”

The man then said he’d spoken with Rev. Al Sharpton and asked Gingrich to meet with him, Roland Martin of CNN, Ben Jealous of the NAACP and Juan Williams.

“Sure — glad to do it,” Gingrich said. “I’d be willing to do it. I know Al.”

Hey Newt, I could care less about an ex-wife’s accusations of your wanting an open marriage, but I do care about your judgement in meeting with a race baiter like Al Sharpton and you providing him credibility. Some one cries racism and you jump. Way to go Newt, that is exactly the reaction they wanted.

We have already seen Newt’s poor judgement in doing global warming ads with Nancy Pelosi, what’s next … a PSA with Al Sharpton on racism? Because as stated at Michelle Malkin.com, we all know the way to calm the waters of racism is to get Sharpton involved. Get a clue Newt.

Like Obama, Like Holder … Atty General Eric Holder Uses the Race Card

USING THE RACE CARD ONCE AGAIN … SHAMEFUL!!!

The Obama Administration is a “One Trick Pony,” when confronted with any criticism, they use the race card and cry racism. Attorney General Eric Holder used the race card to describe why he is being criticized. Holder, you are hardly being criticized and asked to step down because of your race; however, it might be because of your inept conduct with regards to “Fast & Furious” where you at worse lied and mislead Congress and at best were derelict in your duties.

Attorney General Eric Holder accused his growing chorus of critics of racist motivations in a Sunday interview published in the New York Times. When reached by The Daily Caller Monday morning, the Department of Justice provided no evidence to support the attorney general’s claims.
Holder said some unspecified faction — what he refers to as the “more extreme segment” — is driven to criticize both him and President Barack Obama due to the color of their skin. Holder did not appear to elaborate on who he considered to make up the “more extreme segment.”

This is a way to get at the president because of the way I can be identified with him,” Holder said, according to the Times. “Both due to the nature of our relationship and, you know, the fact that we’re both African-American.”

Sadly and unfortunately there is real racism in the US still. However, a reaction by many to being incompetent and misleading in one’s job is hardly an example of it. When 75 to 86 Congressman have no faith or trust in someone to do their job, that is not racism.

Just curious Atty general Holder, what do you call it when you dismissed the Black Panther voter intimidation case? As the Gateway Pundit reminds us, more denials from the worse administration ever. They all think we are fools. In 2012 … THEY NEED TO GO!!!

Via Hot Air … Congressman West to Eric Holder: It’s not about your color, it’s about your competence

African Americans Back Tea Parties More than the Occupy Wall Street Protesters

A funny thing happened on the way to the OWS protests …

It turns out that the  Occupy Wall Street protesters are not being embraced by blacks. In fact, the 1.6% of blacks that make up the OWS protesters is even less than that who support the Tea Party.  So why isn’t the OWS movement diverse? Better question is why isn’t the MSM calling them RACISTS for not being diverse like they did with the Tea Party?

Occupy Wall Street might seem like a movement that would resonate with black Americans. After all, unemployment among African Americans is at 15 percent, vs. almost 8 percent for whites. And between 2005 and 2009, black households lost just over half of their median net worth compared with white families, who lost 16 percent, according to the Pew Research Center.

However, these numbers have not translated into action. A few prominent African Americans, such as Cornel West, Russell Simmons, Kanye West and Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.), have made appearances at Occupy protests. “Occupy the Hood,” a recent offshoot, has tried to get more people of color involved. But the main movement remains overwhelmingly white: A Fast Company survey last month found that African Americans, who are 12.6 percent of the U.S. population, make up only 1.6 percent of Occupy Wall Street.

The Gateway Pundit reminds us that a past, the Tea Party has more support from blacks and minorities that the Obama endorsed Occupy Wall Street protests. As the WAPO questions, shouldn’t blacks be for the OWS movement, after all they are more adversely affected than whites by the economy, unemployment and banks. The libs just cannot believe that they do not have any diversity in support of the OWS anti-capitalist protests. Maybe it is because blacks are actually interested in real issues that affect them at home, locally in their lives. Putting on a farcical show of living in tents, doing drugs, raping, sexually assaulting and committing vandalism is not part of what blacks believe in of making a difference.

Is there a chance that the movement can become more diverse? Leslie Wilson, a professor of African American history at Montclair State University, is not optimistic.

“Occupy Wall Street cannot produce enough change to encourage certain types of black participation,” Wilson said in an interview. “The church cannot get enough blacks out on the streets. Some students will go, but not the masses. Black folks, particularly older ones, do not think that this is going to lead to change. .?.?. This generation has already been beaten down and is hurting. They are not willing to risk what little they have for change. Those who are wealthier are not willing to risk and lose.”

Black America’s fight for income equality is not on Wall Street, but is a matter of day-to-day survival. The more pressing battles are against tenant evictions, police brutality and street crime. This group doesn’t see a reason to join the amorphous Occupiers.

So where is the MSM stories and OPED’s calling the OWS crowd racist? If they have any journalistic integrity, if they claimed the Tea party was for a lack of involvement from blacks … they more than would have to do so with the incredible lack of support for the Occupy Wall Street movement. Don’t hold your breath on that one.

Susan Sarandon Calls Pope Benedict a ‘Nazi’ and ESPN Does Not Fire Her Like Hank Williams Jr.

Oh the hypocrisy and double standard of the LEFT and the MSM …

It is just another case of the MSM double standard. Far Leftist, Hollywood darling Susan Sarandon called Pope Benedict XVI a Nazi and is praised by moonbats world wide. However, when it came to Hank Williams Jr. making an analogy and not actually calling President Obama or House Speaker John Boehner while on Fox & Friends, Williams was fired from his gig with ESPN’s Monday Night Football intro … “ARE YOU READY FOR SOME DOUBLE STANDARDS!”

Susan Sarandon called Pope Benedict XVI a ‘Nazi’ last weekend while discussing Catholic teaching on the death penalty.

Those are harsh words from the Catholic girl who played a well known nun, Sr. Helen Prejean, in Dead Man Walking, a popular 1995 film depicting Prejean’s anti-death penalty ministry and activism.

During an event at the Hamptons Film Festival, Sarandon said she had sent a copy of the book “Dead Man Walking” in hopes that the late Pope John Paul II would elevate the issue of the death penalty in church teaching. According to reports, Sarandon said she sent the book to “The last [pope]. Not this Nazi one we have now.”

Of course Hank Williams Jr’s famous “All my rowdy friends are here on Monday Night was discontinued by ESPN and MNF for his remarks, what are the odds that Susan Sarandon will get a movie deal after hers? So far there is no truth to the rumor that Susan Sarandon will be cutting a demo tape for the new intro to MNF.

Nazi & Communist Party Back the ‘Occupy Wall Street’ Protest Movement

OCCUPY WALL STREET PROTESTERS, NAZI’S AND COMMUNISTS … OH MY!!!  OBAMA AND THE DEMOCRATS HAVE STEPPED IN IT THIS TIME …

Not only does President Barack Obama and Democrats support the ‘Occupy Wall Street’ protest movement, it appears that they have two move organizations that have come on board. The American Nazi party throws its support behind the ‘Occupy Wall Street’ folks. To second the Gate Way Pundit, Wow, just Wow! I will also add in a YIKES!

Check this out from Weasel Zippers as we will not be linking to the actual source for obvious reasons.

The “Occupy Wall Street” Movement — WhiteHonor

The foremost authority on National Socialism in America has this to say about “Occupy” [ANP leader Rocky Suhayda — ed.] :

What is really MISSING — is the “MOVEMENT” from these popular protests — its time to pull WN heads out of their collective ass’s, and JOIN IN the attack on Judeo-Capitalism. What do you suggest? That WN Working Class White people DEFEND the Judeo-Capitalists? IF the “movement” wasn’t so PATHETIC it would be OUT THERE — LEADING these protests! The fact that its these “lefties” as you call them, who are picking up the ball and running with it — only shows how much more in tune THEY are with the fed up masses of White Workers, than the fossilized, reactionary “right-wing”. WHO holds the WEALTH and POWER in this country — the JUDEO-CAPITALISTS. WHO is therefore the #1 ENEMY who makes all this filth happen — the JUDEO-CAPITALISTS. WHO therefore do WN need to FIGHT? My heart is right there with these people, perhaps someday the “movement” will SHOW the same COURAGE and DEDICATION that these people OUT THERE FIGHTING are SHOWING!

Sincerely, ROCKY SUHAYDA Hail Victory! 88!

But wait, its not only the Nazi’s that support the ‘Occupy Wall Street’ movement, its the Communists as well.

Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Democrats have supported the Occupy Wall Street crowd, really? They support hate and Anti-semitism? Seriously?  Wasn’t it Nancy Pelosi that said the Tea Party carried swastikas (VIDEO)? Where is Pelosi now, hell the Occupy Wall Street protesters have the backing of the American Nazi party … um, those folks actually do carry swastikas.

This is what Obama, Pelosi and Democrats are supporting? I do not want to hear that it is just one or two people that are expressing these views, the Occupy crowd has the backing of entire hate organizations. The Tea Party was branded racists because of one fictitious individual who supposedly spit on Pelosi et all, even though it was never proved. How can any one not say that the ‘Occupy Wall Street’ protesters are not racist? For a party that is so supposedly  against racism, how do Democrats support a movement that is backed by the American Nazi party?

Remember this diddy from Nancy Pelosi … when she called Town Hall Tea party folks ‘AstroTurf” and said that they were carrying swastika and other symbols. What do you say now Nancy regarding the “Occupy Wall Street” protesters?

Herman Cain Says that Blacks Have Been Brainwashed into Voting for Democrats

Republican Presidential 2012 primary candidate Herman Cain says … African-Americans have been brainwashed into voting for Democrats. When a demographic supports the Democrat party with 95% of the vote, receives in return a record 17% unemployment and still unanimous supports the Democrat party … its hard to argue. Of course, had it been some other republican that made such a comment, they would have been branded as a racist.

The one African-American running for the GOP presidential nomination said Wednesday the black community was ‘brainwashed’ for traditionally siding with liberal politicians.

“African-Americans have been brainwashed into not being open minded, not even considering a conservative point of view,” Godfather’s Pizza executive Herman Cain said on CNN’s “The Situation Room” in an interview airing Wednesday between 5-7 p.m. ET. “I have received some of that same vitriol simply because I am running for the Republican nomination as a conservative. So it’s just brainwashing and people not being open minded, pure and simple.”

Weasel Zippers adds … replace “Jewish’ with “Blacks” and you have the same accurate statement. Agreed.

One has to wonder why Blacks put all of their eggs in one basket, in political terms it makes them irrelevant. You have one party that will not care to target them because they only receive 5% of the vote and you have another, in Democrats, that just take them for granted. At some point, even if its just to send a message to Democrats, blacks need to rethink their vote in order to be relevant. There is a reason why the Independent vote is courted … they are perceived to be open-minded.

Can It Get Any Less Funny … Mike Tyson: Sarah Palin Would Give Obama a Blow Job

This is what attacks on Sarah Palin have been reduced to?

UNREAL. Just when you thought that the LEFT and ignoramuses like Mike Tyson could not get any worse when it comes to Sarah Palin … they did. The comments from Mike Tyson are jaw dropping even for this convicted rapist. How sick is this that a bunch of guys, including the radio host, are just sitting around laughing at this?  Tyson said that Sarah Palin should have slept with Dennis Rodman instead of “allegedly sleeping” with Glen Rice because Rodman would “push her guts up into the back of her head.” Then Tyson says, “I know she’d give Obama a blow job.” This is so funny, I forgot to laugh. Who knew that rapists were stand up comics?

Video Hat Tip: Story Balloon

What else can one expect from a convicted rapist but misogyny. These comments actually have a hint of racism as well. Probably more then a hint. However, when it comes to making comments about Sarah Palin, nothing is off limits. I wonder how the LEFT would feel if the same such comments were made of female Democrats?

President Obama Sinks to All-Time Polling Lows With Whites, Blacks and Hispanics

My what a difference an Obama first term makes …

Obama is in serious polling trouble, The One is even having polling issues with Blacks and Hispanics. President Obama is at all-time lows in job approval lows with Whites, Blacks and Hispanics. Yikes, Blacks and Hispanics again souring on Obama, would they be considered racists too? According to the most recent Gallup poll, Obama only garners 33% of Whites, 48% of Hispanics and 84% of Blacks. The 2012 Presidential reelection just got more difficult for President Zero.

President Barack Obama earned the lowest monthly job approval rating of his presidency to date in August, with 41% of U.S. adults approving of his overall job performance, down from 44% in July. He also received term-low monthly job approval ratings from both Hispanics (48%) and whites (33%) and tied his lowest rating from blacks (84%).

Blacks have remained solidly approving of Obama throughout his presidency; however, 2011 is the first year this group’s monthly job approval has routinely registered below 90%, indicating a decline in blacks’ support, albeit a fairly minor one.

The president’s current standing with Hispanics reflects a rather steep decline since January, when 60% approved of him. This follows Hispanics’ less-pronounced drops in their support in each of the first two years of his presidency. As a result, the gap between blacks and whites in Obama’s job approval has been widening while the gap between Hispanics’ and whites’ approval has been narrowing.

How bad is it for Obama when he can only get 84% of Blacks and a paltry 48% of the Hispanic vote? In the  2008 Presidential election, Barack Obama got 95% of the Black vote, 67% of the Latino vote and 43% of the White vote.  Does anyone wonder why the President has had a complete poll collapse and would be hard pressed to get a second term. Obama is down 11% with Blacks and 19% with Hispanics. Just curious, does that make them racist for opposing Obama? The Democrats and Obama may not have to worry about the Tea Party, they may find their biggest problem is getting Blacks and Hispanics out to vote and if they do vote, actually cast a ballot for Obama.  Presently in the Gallup poll, Obama has a 42% approval and 50% disapproval rating.

With Barack Obama sinking in the polls with Hispanics as compared to the 2008 vote, imagine how Hispanics would vote if the GOP put US Senator Marco Rubio or another candidate attractive to the Latino vote on the ticket as VP?

Barack Obama’s Civility, a President of the People? Will Obama Condemn Hoffa & Biden for Calling Republicans/Tea Party Barbarians & Son’s of Bitches?

DEMOCRAT CIVILITY … CALLING THE GOP AND TEA PARTY BARBARIANS AND SONS OF BITCHES … BARACK OBAMA, THE DIVIDER IN CHIEF.

America … is this the “Hope & Change” you voted for? Just curious Barack Obama … would this be an example of You putting Party before Country?

It would appear that Barack Obama, Joe Biden nor James Hoffa Jr. could care less about 9 year old  Christina Taylor Green. For that matter, the Democrat party. Would a President of all the people allow such hostility and hate to be spewed prior to their own speech? The answer is no and thus the reason why Obama is nothing more than a partisan hack beholden to Big Labor Unions.

Just this past weekend during his Weekly Presidential Address Barack Obama called for Congress to skip the political posturing. Of course we also remember when Obama said at the Tuscan, AZ Memorial following the senseless killings of six innocent individuals including 9 year old Christina Taylor Green.

I believe we can be better. Those who died here, those who saved lives here – they help me believe. We may not be able to stop all evil in the world, but I know that how we treat one another is entirely up to us. I believe that for all our imperfections, we are full of decency and goodness, and that the forces that divide us are not as strong as those that unite us.

However, after months of Democrats calling the Tea Party and Republicans racists, Nazis, supporting racism and telling them they can go to hell … today President Barack Obama showed his true colors and why America does not consider him a leader of “We the People”.

At a Labor Day speech in Detroit, Michigan that was said by the WH not to be a political campaign speech, was nothing but.  Prior to Obama’s partisan speech to a crowd of union workers, Jimmy Hoffa Jr. riled up the union masses by saying the following,“President Obama, this is your army. We are ready to march. Let’s take these son of bitches out and give America back to an America where we belong.” Only to be followed up by Joe Biden, the VP of the United States acting in a partisan manner, “You Are The Only Folks Keeping The Barbarians From the Gates.” Nice partisan comments from Biden at an AFL-CIO event in Ohio.

This President is a joke. He tells Republicans to put country before party and then attends a pro-Union Labor Day political rally where insults are made toward the GOP. Barack Obama has no credibility. The UK Telegraph asks whether Barack Obama is going to condemn the comments made by Hoffa and Biden. Condemn? He embraced them.
