The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out for himself, without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane and intolerable, and so, if he is romantic, he tries to change it. And even if he is not romantic personally he is apt to spread discontent among those who are. ~ H.L. Mencken
Cicero wants to turn this post into a discussion about Race in America... and he is free to start his own thread if he is serious (I doubt he is)... The HiJack is to divert attention FROM the GOP Racism... TO a general discussion of Race in America. Lost in that discussion will be the original thread.
Marco Rubio Calls Out Conservatives For ‘Harsh And Intolerable And Inexcusable’ Rhetoric On Immigration!
The GOP is in serious trouble with Hispanic Americans and Rubio knows it. Rubio speaking at the conservative Hispanic Leadership Network conference here today said: “We must admit that there are those among us that have used rhetoric that is harsh and intolerable and inexcusable... “And we must admit — myself included — that sometimes we’ve been too slow to condemn that language for what it is.”
While Rubio, who is of Cuban descent, did not mention them by name, his words were intended for GOP presidential candidates Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney.
Really Cicero??? Do you really buy that there is no racism in the USA???
That blacks, whites Hispanics, native Americans, Asians... it's all equal???
I didn't think so
As long as you didn't think so...That's all that matter.

Ahhhhhhhhhhh......when ya can't win a debate, and can't change the mind of the masses, and you've played your 51 cards.............bring out the RACE CARD!!!
I posted about today's GOP Presidential hopefuls displaying racism in THIS campaign... Cicero posts about an old KKK Conservative Southern Democrat who, like many Conservatives of his day (and today) led the fight against Civil Rights. Byrd joined with other Southern and border-state Conservatives to filibuster the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
For some reason, Cicero considers Sen Byrd as pertenent to the subject of TODAY'S Racist GOP! Please explain how bringing up Byrd, applies to today's Racist Republican Candidates, Paul, Romney, Gingrich and Santorum.
(Possibly Cicero is so embarrassed by defending today's racist GOP that he's trying to muddy the waters with a history lesson of Conservative racists.)
I guess Box forgot Obama's "typical white person" remark he made about his grandmother
"In the beginning of a change, the Patriot is a scarce man, brave, hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, however, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a Patriot."
RACISM will always exist.....because we keep putting it into the conversation......
and the politicians are loosing the use of the word.....it should be insulting to anyone black/white/hispanic to have to like food stamps and other government use as their 'livelyhood'......the system IS meant to be the lowest of the low....
you cant shine the bottom of a barrel....
...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......
The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.
STOP BEING GOOD DEMOCRATS---STOP BEING GOOD REPUBLICANS--START BEING GOOD AMERICANS
I guess Box forgot Obama's "typical white person" remark he made about his grandmother
How dare you!!!
Demorats, and especially Obama are post racial. They never use politics of race. Accept of course producing a cleverly edited video to convince racial minority groups the Republicans are racist. They manufacture this racism to keep the minority constituency in the democrat party. That's as dirty as it gets.
