The Colonel on Republicans

I think you should spend more time cleaning your keyboard than talking to me with that nasty vomit all over the place.

"Both have publicly disavoed theior past and the ACTIONS have proven so. There's nothing here. "

Oh so regusardless of their actions just because they're democrats and have said they aren't racist, that good enough for you huh? You are right about one thing..there's nothing here....

Lets look at our old friend Fritz Hollings voting record and see if we can locate any place where he might have not favored African Americans...shall we?

Not exactly voting your way is he Colonel?

That was a great response. Are you Fifteen years old, Colonel?

Gore: Just as insightful as your first comment which added absolutlely ZERO.


Astro: Ok, so he voted agaisnt minorities in certain issues. But, you don't see him going to the bastions of racism and segregation to shill a few votes as republicans do. You have yet to justify those actions and I am waiting.

Furthermore (VALHAL), you have yet to justify your allegiance to these people who openly cater to racists if you are not somewhat like them.

Colonel not all Republicans are racist. We
are not going to give blacks extra support since they were oppressed. Anyone can be racist, blacks,whites,latinos,hispanics, and asians!

Ok, here goes. The thing that gets me about "Democrats" is that they, just like republicans, always seem to turn a blind eye to all things evil or scandalous inside of their own parties ramparts. Why don't you point the finger at yourself and your party every once in a while, colonel? You're so jumpy to be a pro-active Democrat when instead you should try being a pro-active PERSON. The only day that this country will ever see political civility is the day garbage men sit with the rich in congressional halls and draw up laws for the people, the day when single mothers have the same sway of power that a mighty 100 year old millionaire holds. Isn't that in essence a republic? While i'm by no means a socialist or communist, people like you are the reason why politicians make so many of us sick.

You have of yet to give a satisfactory answer so I will ask again:


could you explain the split in ideology where you support equality while the leaders you align and identify with think differrently as I have mentioned below?

"Well, of course the republican party won't say, "Look at me, I'm a racist." But you have to look at their actions. We all know about Trent Lott so I won't go over that. Next, we have John Ashcroft who had did a little extensive piece in the Southern Partisan, an openly white supremist magazine. Then, we have every republican who wants to be somebody speaking at Bob Jones University, a blatantly racist university. Then, of course, there is the race issue in Florida elections.

I dunno, these things don't give any real reason to have ANY love for republicans, cut them any slack, or give them the benefit of the doubt."


(You guys really do need some PR help)

Colonel face it, you are just here to spear propoganda and to hate white people. You are too blind to see that racism goes on in the Democrats as well. All you have done is poked at one or two Republicans and made an opinion based on their actions. So what if we dont suck up to the blacks like the Democrats do?

ERRRR. WRONG!

The republican leadership makes their pilgrimage to Bob Jones University every elction cycle. No, I don't hate white people---I never said I did. I just tell the truth and YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH.


(Like that one?)

Now just why the hell would I have to justify anything for a party I'm not a member of? I could care less if it gets justified or not. I just pointed out that your pretense that all democrats are good guys and all republicans are evil is merely too simplified and stereotypical as I have been saying since this thread began.

The trouble you're having with my arguments stem from lack of planning by your propaganda writers to deal with an argument that accepts this point of view as most of your arguments thus far have more than likely been with republicans as adimant to put forth their good points and cover their bad points as you have been to do the same for the democrat party. Not to mention dealing with someone who has been coached on the same rhetoric as yourself and knows exactly how its done and whats its primary purpose is.

Now, I admit that this gives me a rather unfair advantage in pointing out the contradictions of your arguments and I really haven't meant to pick on you but its just that lately, the leftist ideology that you preach has taken control of a party of which I once was proud to be a member and I can't help but blame you even though you probably are no more guilty than I of letting this happen but its difficult to relieve myself of the contempt for those who still haven't risen from the muck that mires reality and truth...on both sides.

exactly, jedi, i don't necassarily associate with either party, but this guy's just verbally spamming at this point.
get a life.

Colonel........read this and remember one thing......both parties have there fair share of racism and racist issues...this is not a all-inclusive party only attributed to republican's..... racism is all-encompassing!

What leftist ideology? I don't even like Barbera Streisand.

Excellent article, as expected, Seekerof. Maybe, I should let up on these republicans on this race thing (especially since the lot of them seem to be floundering in front of little ole me with nothing substantial to say---as expected.)

Well, I will let this rest for a moment and give the republicans a break.
