Racist Attacks Against Blacks OK

So say Democrats.

From yesterday's Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:
In losing a woman, the court with Alito would feature seven white men, one white woman and a black man, who deserves an asterisk because he arguably does not represent the views of mainstream black America.
What?! Clarence Thomas isn't black, because he doesn't represent the views of most blacks? Sickening.

Then, there was today's Washington Times:
Black Democratic leaders in Maryland say that racially tinged attacks against Lt. Gov. Michael S. Steele in his bid for the U.S. Senate are fair because he is a conservative Republican.
Such attacks against the first black man to win a statewide election in Maryland include pelting him with Oreo cookies during a campaign appearance, calling him an "Uncle Tom" and depicting him as a black-faced minstrel on a liberal Web log.
Operatives for the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) also obtained a copy of his credit report -- the only Republican candidate so targeted.
But black Democrats say there is nothing wrong with "pointing out the obvious."
Here's State Senator Lisa Gladden:
"Party trumps race, especially on the national level," she said. "If you are bold enough to run, you have to take whatever the voters are going to give you. It's democracy, perhaps at its worse, but it is democracy."
Delegate Salima Siler Marriott, a black Baltimore Democrat, said Mr. Steele invites comparisons to a slave who loves his cruel master or a cookie that is black on the outside and white inside because his conservative political philosophy is, in her view, anti-black.
"Because he is a conservative, he is different than most public blacks, and he is different than most people in our community," she said. "His politics are not in the best interest of the masses of black people."
Sickening.

  1. It's sickening, but the left has a pretty steady attrition rate for minorities. See Janice rogers Brown, Alberto Gonzales, and the estate tax.

  2. Oh, I'm well aware. That, and "blacks are too stupid to get into school/get a job on their own, so we're going to make special laws that do it for them." Sad.

  3. Absolutely. I should note I was referring to universities in my above comment. (Michigan rule)
