MediaMatters – Steele tells Hannity: “If you go back and listen to that exchange, there was no attack on Rush” — A Big FAT Lie!

Among many other issues, the HATE rhetoric against African Americans and Latino immigrants, stand out as the primary causes of the GOP’s problems.

Those moderate Republicans who thought Michael Steele could help reel in African Americans and Latinos, into their imaginary BIG TENT, can kiss that wish goodbye and good night!

Brother Steele is clearly a wimp — and is totally incapable of taming and/or organizing the right-wing of the Republican Party. He will never effect any meaningful change in this party of THUGS, BIGOTS and RACIST NEO-NAZI EXTREMISTS.

Michael Steele is just another BLACK TOKEN — being used to provide an illusion of diversity. He missed an opportunity to assert himself two days ago, when he should have stood up to Limbaugh, and challenged him. That opportunity is irretrievably lost, and Mr. Steele is set to be a powerless figurehead …..a yo-yo to be kicked around like a dead football.

Sooner or later, he will resign or will be forced out.

All of them …. leaders of the GOP, have caved in to Limbaugh, the ANGRY WHITE CHRISTIAN MALE — and that will be FATAL.

Until the GOP fixes its archaic 1800’s attitude and RACIST practices and policies, I don’t see any SANE African Americans jumping ship.

As for Latinos, the now three year old Republican campaign of HATE and XENOPHOBIA, which has resulted in several LYNCHINGS, ……I think may have driven Hispanics, and for that matter, many other immigrant communities, away from the Republican Party for good.

Here is the ATTACK!

A few hundred people on Sunday marched in Brooklyn to protest last week’s fatal beating of a 31-year-old Ecuadorean man — an incident authorities say may have been a hate crime.

The demonstrators — holding signs reading “No more hate crimes” — walked a half-mile in the neighborhood where police say Jose Sucuzhanay was hit in the head with a bottle and beaten with an aluminum baseball bat on December 7.

Sucuzhanay died of his injuries Friday at Elmhurst Hospital, hours before his mother arrived in New York from Ecuador, his family said. Read full article »

SANCTIONED IMMIGRANT HATE — VIA CABLE NEWS

Overnight, some industries would become desperate for workers. The biggest beneficiaries would be low-skilled American workers. The big losers might surprise you.

At least 12 million illegal immigrants live in the U.S. Most pick crops, wash dishes, build houses, cut lawns and do other jobs for between $6 and $15 an hour. They make up about 5% of the total U.S. work force. But…

What they were all thrown out?

Lettuce and strawberries would rot in the fields. Dirty dishes would pile up in restaurants. Thousands of farmers and builders would go bust. Predator aircraft drones would prowl the Mexican border. And chunks of Los Angeles and Houston would look like ghost towns.

The biggest losers would be middle-class families with two working parents, living in high-immigrant states such as California, Texas, Florida or New York. Why? They would pay more for food, housing, entertainment and child care as a shortage of low-skilled workers drove up some wages, and therefore, some prices. Meantime, their own pay would remain the same. What’s more, the ripple effect of thousands of businesses shrinking or closing for lack of staff might put one of the parents out of a job. Not to mention the garbage collection going to pot and no one to polish the missus’ nails.

   Immigrants Rally in the U.S. — 2007

How likely is it that this will happen?

Although polls show that most Americans want stronger border enforcement, deporting the illegal immigrants already here is not popular. A CBS News poll found 33% of Americans favored deportation [Republicans], while 62% preferred offering legal status. In a Gallup poll, 13% favored deportation and 78% favored offering citizenship. Neither John McCain nor Barack Obama leans toward deportation.

Crime

Critics of lax immigration policies say that drug running, traffic accidents and crime would go down with the illegal immigrants gone. But The Immigration Policy Center, a Washington research group, argues that studies show that immigrants in general are less likely to commit crimes or to end up behind bars than native-born Americans. The debate goes on.

“Hillary Clinton is showing “a little desperation” according to Governor David Paterson.

Paterson made that comment Thursday, in reference to Senator Clinton’s quest for delegates from Florida and Michigan whom her party has discounted because the states held their primaries too early.” — Quotation from Fox23News.Com

Gov, David Paterson, a superdelegate pledged to Hillary, is dismayed by her desperate tactics that are undermining the democratic process.

Most Democrats want Hillary to stay in the race until the end of the primaries, but only if she refrains from attacking Obama and ceases to try to change the rules to benefit her.

Hillary’s acts of desperation aren’t winning her the support of the superdelegates, in the last few weeks she’s managed to garner the support of very few of these party officials.

Today Hillary proved that Paterson was not exaggerating when he referred to her as desperate:

“Sen. Hillary Clinton referred Friday to the assassination of Robert Kennedy in 1968 Democratic campaign as a reason she should continue to campaign despite increasingly long odds.

Clinton was responding to a question from the Sioux Falls Argus Leader editorial board about calls for her to drop out of the race.

‘My husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right? We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. You know I just, I don’t understand it,’ she said, dismissing the idea of dropping out” — Quotation from the Associated Press

Hilary is disingenuous when she mentions that her husband didn’t wrap up the nomination until June 1992. Technically she’s telling the truth, but what she fails to mention is that by that time all the major contenders had dropped out and her husband was facing only token opposition.

Hillary is desperate when she invokes the assassination of Robert Kennedy. Why conjure up loaded word when her opponent has an excellent chance of becoming the first African American President of the United States?

To invoke the assassination of Robert Kennedy at a time when Sen. Ted Kennedy is battling for his life is reprehensible.

“Hillary Clinton said Friday she regretted comments that evoked the June 1968 assassination of Robert Kennedy as part of her explanation for why she was staying in the presidential race late into the primary season.

“Earlier today, I was discussing the Democratic primary history and in the course of that discussion mentioned the campaigns that both my husband and Senator Kennedy waged in California in June in 1992 and 1968, and I was referencing those to make the point that we have had nominating primary contests that go into June. That’s an historic fact,” she told reporters. — Quotation from The St. Louis American

Even if we accept Hillary’s half-hearted apology, the damage has been done and let’s hope that she hasn’t given a nut an idea about killing Obama.

Listen Hillary: It’s over. Damn it, it’s over. A meteorite isn’t going to fall on Obama, get out of the race before you further stain your legacy.

Racist Incidents Give Some Obama Campaigners Pause — Especially in Indiana and Pennsylvania, states which harbor numerous hate groups, and have been Ku Klux Klan strongholds for many years.

For all the hope and excitement Obama’s candidacy is generating, some of his field workers, phone-bank volunteers and campaign surrogates are encountering a raw racism and hostility that have gone largely unnoticed — and unreported — this election season.

Doors have been slammed in their faces. They’ve been called racially derogatory names (including the white volunteers). And they’ve endured malicious rants and ugly stereotyping from people who can’t fathom that the senator from Illinois could become the first African American president.

The contrast between the large, adoring crowds Obama draws at public events and the gritty street-level work to win votes is stark. The candidate is largely insulated from the mean-spiritedness that some of his foot soldiers deal with away from the media spotlight.

Victoria Switzer, a retired social studies teacher, was on phone-bank duty one night during the Pennsylvania primary campaign. One night was all she could take: “It wasn’t pretty.” She made 60 calls to prospective voters in Susquehanna County, her home county, which is 98 percent white. The responses were dispiriting. One caller, Switzer remembers, said he couldn’t possibly vote for Obama and concluded: “Hang that darky from a tree!“…..[more]
