The views of an Independent

[Freeper]

But the facts are that the mainstream perception of the Right-Wing, is that they are angry, white rascists.  Just saying.

And why is there that perception?
Because for years the libs have made that claim, because they are too lazy to try to debate the issues, they play the race card then we spend all our time arguing that we aren't racists instead of arguing about the actual issues. After awhile people who don't understand conservatism, nor have the desire to find out what conservatism is, fall for the lie that the left has been spouting.

If you want to see angry white racists just go to any place full of liberals and mention Herman Cain, Alan West, Condi Rice, and Justice Thomas.

Bunch of blog posts by a guy named Mike, and lots of links to other liberal hippie douchebag websites like alternet, ThinkProgress, Mother Jones, Robert Reich, etc.

Our troll here claims to be an "independent" but is anything but.

Maybe it feels as if its' duty is to "edumocate" us "teabaggers."  You know, sort of like an initiation ritual.

But but but but but, the OP has told us he's an Independent and leans towards Conservatism on economic issues!

Seminar callers establish their "conservative credentials" on Rush/Glenn/Hannity's show the same way.

Good grief, that claim was debunked more times than Lindsay Lohan has been deflowered.  Sans the part where someone who spittles when they talk like Chrissy Matthews. Andrew Breitbart even offered a 100K reward to anyone that could prove that it happened.  Not one taker.  I therefore discount every word you wrote thereafter.

You wouldn't happen to be a cop in Texas now, would you?  And how is it that some people can see racism in every single thing that surrounds them?  Is that fulfilling somehow?

Wow... You're right Sparky, Republicans aren't racist... lol.

In the immortal words of Megatron in Transformers: The Movie, Herman Cain’s speech at CPAC really is bad comedy. As you know, I find black garbage pail kids black conservatives fascinating not because of what they believe, but rather because of how they entertain and perform for their White Conservative masters. …

Instead, Herman Cain’s shtick is a version of race minstrelsy where he performs “authentic negritude” as wish fulfillment for White Conservative fantasies. …

We always need a monkey in the window, for he/she reminds us of our humanity while simultaneously reinforcing a sense of our own superiority. Sadly, there are always folks who are willing to play that role because it pays so well.

Take it somewhere else, kid, we're not buying your bullshit.

No.  I was just asked to give an example as to when Republicans had been racist. 

In illustrating that, you don't need to get defensive, I understand it goes both ways.  When they announced Obama won in 2008, there were Jamaican Blacks celebrating in the streets by where I lived while I was jogging, and since I voted for Obama (I drank the kool-aid too), I gave them a gesture that would indicate I was happy at the outcome... They all got quiet and gave me this look like they were confused at why I would be happy.  It was as if they thought it was a victory only for Blacks. 

It's ironic because in voting trends in the past, Jamaicans are hard-line conservatives, and had only voted Republican in the district where they predominately are registered in Miami. 

Regardless, I'm not pointing a finger, and to be honest, my ultimate intent was just to say that Republicans would have a far larger base if they stuck to promoting their economic/tax policies instead of using rhetoric that alienates minorities.  Are you going to honestly tell me if I read through this board I wouldn't find a slew of racially charged remarks about welfare recipients, immigrants, and the President?

Come to edumacate us stooopid raaaacists republicans, have you? Well let me edumacate you. I'm not a republican, political parties do not define me, I am a conservative. I have lib friends, I have black friends, I have hispanic friends, I have indian friends, I have native american friends, I have lesbian friends and I have male homosexual friends.  I have lots of friends. Know what? Race never comes up. Politics never come up. Sexual preference never comes up and I am not in the minority of conservatives. Racial/sexual bias is nothing more than a liberal myth the MSM and the libbies promote. Apparently you fell for it.

Know what? My favorite candidate is a black man by the name of Herman Cain. Why do I like him? Not because he is black, but because I think he is better than the fool that is currently president. The man is smart, a proven leader, and could lead us out of the disaster that obumble has wrought on the great nation. He also endorses the Fair Tax which I think is a great idea.

But us conservatives are raaaacists.

Did the conservatives call a black man on the supreme court an uncle Tom? Nope... that was libs. Did conservatives call the first black US Sec of State a "house ******"? Nope that was the libs too.

Yet us conservatives are raaaacists.

I say the problem is with the minorities, those that sit around and blame whitey for their bad decisions.

By the way... I am 1/4 native american. My grandmother was a Blackfoot Indian.

Well, the facts are that most of the "mainstream" doing the perceiving are middle class, over-educated, self-loathing white people attempting to lead or force all of us (or as many as feasible) to a mass suicide. The rest are simply high all the time. Just saying.

Being an "independent" is not the same as wanting to be willfully ignorant of the facts.

I just always love it when some East Coast shitbag starts chiding me over why I should give a damn about what he or how the rest of the oxygen thieves out there perceive me.

[Duke Nukum]

After looking at this douche's stellar 8 posts, I vote he is Discordian. If he isn't, he should check them out. He will find lots of "independents" to march in lockstep with.

[NHSparky]

So far, gone for 48 hours.  More likely a hit-and-run troll of the 4chan variety, what they refer to as a /b/tard.

But in the off chance shitbag does come back after his 72-hour committal, I suggest he march in lockstep with some liberals.  Through a minefield, preferably.
