Negroes needed ASAP!!

"watching the RNC is so funny. Almost all the Black Republicans will be *on the stage* and they will zoom into the "other" guy in the audience 6 times a day, every day, like he's someone different. last time I was laughing hysterically by the second day. They keep showing the same 12 people of color over and over again like they are different people. From different angles, from different cameras but the same dozen non-white delegates."

I wish I could give the person who posted that funny little comment their proper credit. I saw it on one of those race forum boards. And I gotta say, it's dead on.

It should be fun watching the frat boy's Katrina Anniversary bash next week. And for the sake of the poor folks in the "Big Easy", I am hoping that we don't have a literal repeat of those sad events. You gotta believe the rethugs are praying too, but for a totally different reason. Field are you trying to say that republicans care more about how their convention comes off than the lives of poor black people? Ahhh let me think about that for a minute.....YES!

So anyhoo, it should be fun to watch the rethugs. If only to play our little game of spot the black guy. I know one thing, if you are a black person who loves face time, there will be no better place to be than in the Twin Cities next week. Look honey, it's that black guy again. He is everywhere.....You gotta love it.

I am going to try and count the black people, it should be easy. Although I am guessing that this year they might actually ship in more brown warm bodies than usual to diversify the crowd a little. They can't just have a total white out when the dems are looking so diverse at their convention; and when they nominated a black man for crying out loud! Now that I think about it; the "Rent A Negro" folks should be doing great business next week. Hi, Rent A Negro? Yes, this is Bob from the RNC. We are going to need at least fifty more Negroes for Wednesday night, do you think you can swing that? Oh, and Rent A Negro, we need them to have some acting skills as well. We want them to look really enthusiastic when those cameras are on.

Let me stop. I already catch enough flack from my rethug friends for being hard on them. But let's be honest folks, don't they make it easy for a brotha?

Another RNC white out?

Hmmm, looks like up in the land of a thousand lakes the rethuglican field Negroes are getting restless. But what did they expect, that the party of Lincoln was all of a sudden going to get inclusive on them? Newsflash: A few colored folks does not make big tent make, it's a lot deeper than that.

I would like to thank my man Dave Topper for sending me the link to the following story:

"The campaign of Barb Davis White went after the Republican National Committee and the Republican Party of Minnesota on Tuesday, criticizing the RNC’s failure to invite any African-American congressional candidates to speak at the Republican National Convention and complaining that the Minnesota GOP has been lax in supporting Davis White’s campaign. Davis White is the Republican Party’s endorsed candidate for the 5th Congressional District, which encompasses Minneapolis and several inner-ring suburbs.

In an email sent to the RNC and posted to the Independent Business News Network, Davis White’s press secretary, Don Allen, said that he had tried to get answers from the RNC numerous times as to why no African Americans are scheduled to speak at the RNC.
He wrote that he was stonewalled and, at least one time, threatened. He accused the party of discriminating: “This ’slave mentality thinking’ i.e.; ‘Be good you Black Republicans while our White friends are in town’ does not fly with me or the tools I have in place to distribute this message ‘top-of-mind’ to the general public and national news affiliates.”

Allen said that the local GOP has not been supportive of Davis White’s campaign. “Keith Ellison is not worried and rest assured that the Minnesota GOP will put no effort into an African American Republican candidate for Congress in Minnesota with the current leadership of the GOP,” he wrote.

He charged the party with jeopardizing the 5th District: “Again, and for the last time — I will ask, what African American Congressional Candidates have been scheduled to speak at the RNC? What do we really have to loose, besides Minnesota’s 5th Congressional District?”
Minnesota’s 5th District is heavily Democratic and has voted for the DFL candidate since 1963.

What? The local GOP is not supportive of an African American candidate? I am shocked, shocked I tell you.

Look, you want to know one reason I am not so into conventions? Well I will tell you why: It's like this: I was at the rethuglican convention in the Big Easy back in 1988, when they nominated the frat boy's daddy, and the single digit IQ man, Dan Quayle. Trust me, it was not a pleasant experience. "A Thousand Points Of Light" my ass. I was one of the few dark spots in that bitch, and those "points of light" weren't looking too friendly. (Gino,you are my man, and I love you like a brother, but don't you ever put me in some shit like that again) But field that was twenty years ago, the republican party has become far more inclusive since then. Yeah, well maybe they have. But you know what? My black ass will never be around them long enough to find out. Some things you just don't ever forget.
