Obama campaign lashes out at Ferraro race comment

[BgMc31]

Considering LBJ signed one of the most important civil rights bills into legislation, I think that's a bad example. Even the most prominent black "leaders" have conceded Clinton's assertion that Martin Luther King would not have been nearly as effective without the assistance of LBJ. And I'm not trying or even wanting to debate the origin of the neo-conservatives. That fact remains they are republicans now. Hell most blacks were republicans at one time.

No, it's a very good example. Your just not comprehending this properly, what your thinking is that I'm calling LBJ an outright racist or a bigot, but that's not what I'm doing. Those legilations that he passed hurt the very people that he was trying to help and I'm not saying he had a malicious intent, but this is what happened and this is always what happens with most government intervention. If you want to change people you do not do it through legislation you do it through persuasion and education. The legislation that was passed added to collectivist thought and that's exactly what they were fighting against.

And I'm not trying or even wanting to debate the origin of the neo-conservatives. That fact remains they are republicans now. Hell most blacks were republicans at one time.

That's because if you know anything about Irving Krystal you know he was a liberal before he created a new wing of neo-conservatives. The fact is they are not real republicans. Real republicans have very different ideals. Neo-conservatives are republicans in name only. They're essentailly warmongering liberals.

She should had just flat out directly said.. "I believe Obama is a stupid man"

by tying race into this .. she dragged herself into this mess

She is trying to be like Aristotle and philosophize some stupid theories, but it's just ignorance

Saying Obama is a stupid man based on his extensive academic credentials is equally ignorant. I would venture to say even moreso.
