Black Politics with Chris Owens...our weird week in politics
A message from Chris Owens . . .
I'm recapping our strange week in politics with Political Strategist, Basil Smikle, who was a top aide to Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton and joined the Senator’s delegations to Vietnam and Israel for the White House during the Clinton Administration. Smikle teaches at Columbia University’s Graduate School of International and Public Affairs.
And, in our regular segment on protecting your vote: I'll speak with Ryan King, Policy Analyst with The Sentencing Project about how votes are stolen from ex-offenders. "The credibility of our elections and democratic principles are compromised by laws that exclude citizens because of their past failings," King says. www.sentencingproject.org

I was wondering if you are aware that some on this site
appear to be members of the Ku Klux Klan? Their names are Pookie, liberalicconoclast, fubush, othello, and AG. I would suggest you look at some of their racist comments. What is more appalling than these individuals comments, is the fact that everyone else seems to be OK with their overt racism.
You did this same kind of
You did this same kind of trying to get others banned when you were pretending to be Rashiki Runoko. Do you really think by repeating the same behavior over and over again we are going to be fooled into believing you aren't hatenomor? You seem to believe it was okay for you to make racists comments to AfricaBamba. That's when you suddenly claimed to be black. Like hufflarry 2000 became black when he said no one would vote for Obama or jfrogg became Native American after making a racist slur to rcm.
Hatenomor, I don't think any of these people believe that you are black.

"Hatenomor, I don't think any of these people believe that you are black."
Nor do we care what color, or national origin, or sexual orientation, or anything that hatenomore is. He (presuming that this person is a male) is being called out on his views. When race comes into the picture, it's only because hatey brought up the subject to distract from his failed talking points, and it's too tempting to screw with him.

What racists remarks are you talking about?
And exactly what behavior are you referring to? I am a voice of dissent. Apparently, people like you can't handle dissent.
And the color of my skin is irrelevant, except to those who judge others by the color of their skin. In other words, racists.
Why don't you do some soul searching, Michtou, and think about what it is about this hatey person you people despise so much. I believe it's because you can't refute him, nor can you convince him that your position is valid. So, instead of accepting that there may be another way of seeing the world, you turn to hate.
Voice of dissent? 'Tis to
Voice of dissent? 'Tis to laugh. You repeat, without thinking, the propaganda points of the right wing, over and over and over again. And you always try to get us involved in the same arguments, over and over and over again. Instead of debate, you try to disrupt. You are a silly man who thinks giving yourself different names fools us into thinking you are different people.
I don't hate you, hatenomor. I pity you.
Just because you say they are propaganda points of the right
does not make that statement true. By the way, I do think before I write. And what about you? Can't everything you spout be categorized as being nothing but left wing talking points that you repeat without thinking?
Regarding your statement that I try to get you involved in the same argument, etc. Maybe it seems that way to you, because you people only spout left wing talking points that are demonstrably false, in my opinion.
If you would care to go back and look at my posts, you will find that I do try to debate the issues, but time and time again, it is your side that always seems to devolve the conversation into denigration. I really believe you would be hard pressed to find any post of mine that denigrates anyone, except in response to so meone first denigrating me. There are always exceptions to the rule, but on the whole, I believe I have upheld a high standard on this site.
By the way, I am still waiting to find out what racial epitaphs you alleged I have made.
blah, blah, blah
We have this discussion every time you change sockpuppet names. You use exactly the same kind of language, the same modus operandi, etc... Like I said, you are as transparent as a fifty-year old sheet.
I've already told you in one of your previous incarnations. I'm not going back through the archives again. You are a waste of my time.
Get cancer and die, hatemoron
You are a lying sack of cowardly shit that DESERVES to die, hatey.

You proved my point. If made to think, you resort to insults.
You can't handle dissent. You can't handle any deviation from your world view. You can't handle thinking. You can't handle anything is not left wing talking points.
Exactly how did I insult
Exactly how did I insult you?
I said you are repetitive. You do the same thing over and over, no matter what your name, so you are easily identified (that's what transparent means. A fifty-year old sheet is transparent because it's been washed so much).
You try to waste my time. Therefore you are a waste of my time.
Left wing talking points? HA!!! Since the only left wing site I go to is this one, and I get my news from the BBC, I'd have a hard time getting those so-called talking points, if they do exist. However, when all the trolls come out with exactly the same talking points on the same day, it's hard to believe you guys don't have a common source.
Maybe I should not have used the term insult.
Rather I should have used the term accusation. Opposition of your position does not translate into talking points. Any fair minded person tries to understand both sides of an issue. That is what you consider talking points. Every issue has two sides, at a minimum. Even Obama seems to agree with this statement, judging by the many times he agreed with McCain, during the debate. It's called "common ground". Are you familiar with the term?
Fuck you, douche bag

Oh, look! Projection!
You may think people here have the attention span of the average RepubliCANT, which is typically about two seconds longer than that of a goldfish, but you forget the persistent nature of these Internet tubes.
For the last two weeks, it's been YOU trying to play the "race" card. NOT us. Shall I go back and start digging through the posts that have been made and tally up the numbers of subthreads you've tried to start by accusing Progressives of being racist? I can guarantee you there will be a sizable number.
No one wants to play with you, hatenoless. Go back to your AstroGlide Church and tell your puppet masters you blew the pooch again.

Not true. Suggest you look at every post by pookie
to see where the race thing comes from. My point is that none of you take offense. And by not speaking out against hate speech, you place yourself on the side of those who are speaking.
Yeah, go ahead, start digging. You will find that my posts are all in response to prior posts.
I don't have to dig far
The VERY FIRST POST in this topic was by you.
Your words.
QED.
Now go away, racist. And take your phony outrage with you. Nobody's impressed by it, especially since it's so transparent.

That was a question directed to a Black Host.
I also posed the same question to sam.
Hey, I'll pose the same question to you. Are you aware that the Klan seems to be taking over this site. Why are you so silent about racism being displayed on this site? Don't you think that using racial epitaphs is crossing the line? Regardless of who those epitaphs are directed against.
Your words
...were posted in an open forum, with absolutely no context to support your allegation (read: SPIN).
Why do you fear the Brown People so much? Is it because your paleo-c0n masters have told you that you should? Or are you afraid they'll get too "uppity"?
Go away, racist. This isn't the David Duke rah-rah site, and no, I don't have a link to the real one. Try teh Googles.

If you're so insulted, why
If you're so insulted, why is your new sockpuppet, Liberal Holocaust, posting such racist trash?
Huh, ?
By the way, why don't you condemn racists speech?
Fuck off, dipshit.
Go find your buddy Liberal Holocaust and then you can BOTH jump off a fucking bridge.

You have several sockpuppets
You have several sockpuppets out there that indulge in racist speech. If you'd control your mouth, they'd control theirs.
The problem started when you pretended you were black.
So is that how neocons are defining dissent?
By saying exactly what the establishment wants to hear?
Typical fucked- up right wing logic.
And exactly what is it I have said makes you believe
the establishment wants to hear. Right now, its the democrats who hold most of the power, making them the establishment. On this site, I am the minority, opposing the left wing establishment. All you people is sit at your keyboards, bash bush, bash america, and pat yourselfs on the back for being clever. You don't convince anyone to believe as you do, nor do you try to. You just echo each other, and denigrate those who don't echo the same left wing talking points.

Exactly how do the Democrats
Exactly how do the Democrats hold the most power? The Presidency, the Supreme Court (2 of the branches of government) and the news media (how they tell fools like you what they want you to think) are in the hands of the neocons. The Senate is pretty much in their hands too, since Lieberman went to the right. The House is split, with a very slim lead in the Democrats' hands. So one of the three branches of government is slightly in favor of the Democrats, a very shaky lead. They don't hold most of the power, but the news media tells you they do so you can blame all your neocon masters' blunders on them.
The left controls the mass media. Out of all the shows on t.v.
you'd be hard pressed to name a handful that lean right. Control the media, control the country.
Movies: Most lean to the left. Or pander to the left.
Most reporters, and news personalities vote democratic.
Here is a list of the ten riches people in america.

Movies lean to the left? How??
Most reporters and news personalities vote Democratic? Source for that information, or is it an ass stat?
And what does your list of ten wealthiest people in America have to do with who controls the news media? In short, your post makes no sense...not that I'm suprised.
McCain/Palin '08....Manchurians for the New American Century!
The people you mention have
The people you mention have nothing to do with media ownership. You are, once again, trying to distract.
Five companies own most of the media, and they are right-wing.

Are you kidding? If I want to know what you are going to say.
all I have to do is read the WSJ opinion page. Or switch on Fox news.
And don't try to set yourself up as some heroic dissenter. You are not being threatened with arrest or being blacklisted when you parrot the lines the bosses want you to say.
Bash America? I guess in your mind that's true 'cause you just posted what you think: Bush= America.
You identify America through her ruling class, we identify her through her people.
And if you feel denigrated, why do you keep coming back for more? No one is forcing you to post here every day, you know.
What are you talking about?
How many times have people on this site threatened to have me banned? (blacklisted) And who has been threatened with arrest? That statement is absurd. When did the USA start arresting people for speech? By the way, I have no bosses who tell me what to think or say. I just don't believe in your political views. Nor what your bosses have you parrot on their behalf. Bush doesn't equal America. The people equal America. Both parties have failed the people. Most political parties fail the people, regardless of which country one is speaking about. That's what you fail to understand.
I don't identify with the ruling class, and you don't identify with the people. Your party wants to keep the working class sub servant to the government to maintain your power.
To quote Francis Rice, a retired Army lieutenant colonel and lawyer, t was Republicans who pushed through much of the ground-breaking civil rights legislation in Congress. Now, she says, Republicans stand for empowering blacks to help them out of poverty. In contrast, Rice says, the Democrats push to keep blacks dependent on government handouts and encourage them to see themselves as victims.
In Rice’s view, “The Democrats fight every effort of Republicans to get blacks out of poverty because they know that once blacks become prosperous, the Democratic Party will lose its power base.”
Rice says most blacks are not aware that from its founding in 1854 as the anti-slavery party, the Republican Party has been at the “forefront of the struggle for civil rights, which is why Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was a Republican.”

Believe it or not there are more than two political parties
in the U.S.A.
And my party did not endorse the democrat pick for president.
You are so sheltered and ignorant that the rest of your comment makes zero sense.
And what party are you referring too?
The get no vote party? What partys actually holds any seats in congress? Yes, the USA has many political parties, but have always been known for its two party system. You must live a very sheltered life to be so ignorant.
Get the fuck out of here, hatemoron.
You serve no purpose other than to take up space and breath the valuable oxygen we humans need to exist. The world would be a better place if you jumped off a fucking bridge.
