Race Baiting Season Kick Off..

[Lumpy 1]

Politics has really gotten disgusting the past decade...All about dividing and destroying this country anymore.

Goddamn...

That's whats called an epiphany...

This political circus sucks, I'd like a new one but it appears that the next one sucks even worse....

This thread should be in politics not current events.

You should be on a beach in the Bahama's teasing waiters, sipping margarita's and wearing nothing at all ... oh, except a hat...

If race baiting works as a political tactic for the opposition, then you need to figure out how to stop its effectiveness.


Siting around bitching about it is going to do nothing but hand the Democrats more power.


OH I forgot. Bitching is what crabby old Republicans do best. Ignore what I posted earlier.

They are such liars. They revert to this because they have nothing else to run on. Economy--disaster. Obamacare--disaster. Foreign policy--disaster. So it's play the race card.
They learned this from white Southern Democrats. Shout "******" as loud as you can and win the election.

You have a point, every time democrats use diversionary tactics such as painting republicans as bigoted, compassion less, or ignorant, republicans seem unable to avoid falling into this trap. This democrat line of attack will work again in 2016 for Hillary just as it did for Obama the last two elections, unless republicans figure out a working strategy. The republicans seem to be undergoing an identity crisis for the last six years.

Another day, another story meant to divide:

Democratic lawmaker: GOP base 'animated by racism'

WASHINGTON (AP) — An overhaul to the nation's broken immigration system remains stalled because "the Republican base does have elements that are animated by racism," the head of the House committee to elect Democratic lawmakers said Sunday.


Rep. Steve Israel's comments are in line with those from House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi earlier this week, in which she blamed racial issues for the GOP's failure to act on comprehensive immigration legislation. Asked about Pelosi's comments, New York's Israel said he agreed with her assessment.

"To a significant extent, the Republican base does have elements that are animated by racism. And that's unfortunate," said Israel, who heads the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee.

Frustration is mounting among the House's Democratic minority and immigration activists about Republicans' refusal to act on a far-reaching immigration bill passed by the Senate last year. The Senate bill would provide a path to citizenship for the estimated 11 million immigrants living in the country illegally and tighten border security.

Republicans remain wary of a contentious debate on the divisive issue, which could anger their core voters and undercut potential electoral gains in the November elections.

"I think race has something to do with the fact that they're not bringing up an immigration bill," Pelosi told reporters Thursday.

Pelosi was responding to a question about whether race factors into how Republicans deal with members of the Obama administration. She accused Republicans of being generally disrespectful to members of the administration and to women.

Oregon's Rep. Greg Walden, who heads Republicans' efforts to elect House members, said blaming racism was "both wrong and unfortunate." He said his Republican colleagues have been critical of President Barack Obama and his party on policy grounds, not racial ones.

"You know, there have been a lot of executive overreaches by this administration," said Walden who leads the National Republican Congressional Committee. "The American people just want to know the truth. ... They want to know answers. And that's all we're trying to do."

Israel and Walden spoke on CNN's "State of the Union."

Well, it's here

I feel the people accusing people of it are probably racist. They just want to start shit.

Thats an odd assessment coming from a poster who has flung around the term ******* quite often in the past. You can't hide your own racism by accusing others of it.
