It's sad that All of the Republican leadership in Congress refused to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Selma

Zanney is a Nazi Jackass.

Speaking of Selma, here is the Messiah hallucinating and claiming his parents met as a result of the 1965 voting rights march. That's weird. I thought Obama was born in 1961.

Zanyzit, you started this thread - can you clear this up for us?



"Listen as Obama speaks with a jive accent and completely fabricates how and why his parents gave birth to him. He tries to give the Selma Voting Rights March credit for his parents meeting and giving birth to him. However, he was born in 1961 and the Selma Voting Rights March DID NOT even take place until 1965."

Not one decided to go. Talk about a colossal failure of leadership. Looks as if they have no big tent afterall and it's likely why they'll never win the presidency again. They just dont know how to think ahead. I'm sure if we were commemorating the 50th of anything Jewish there wouldnt be enough seats for congressional republicans. If they cant get behind this effort to commemorate progress in America they are doomed. Very disappointing decision as they missed a real opportunity.

I guess they think the open hostility approach will work. Not even George Bush would condone this type of behavior and in fact he will be there. Kudos to president Bush he always showed true conservative compassion.

For the others who dont think like the President Bush who showed much grace toward minority groups shame on you. The perception like Maher said remains intact: "If you are a Republican you are not necessarily a racist but if you are a racist you are probably a Republican".

if you liked what the Manchurian Candidate said, you are not an American. but then again ,, we all knew that anyway.

Yes. The Republicans passed the Civil Rights Act of 1964. That makes it even more puzzling that none of them showed up. I think the Republicans will regret this.

Let me explain what makes me unique and you not so much. I came from poverty to wealth through hard work. I can empathize with the poor while also condemning the lazy within the ranks of the poor. I can also relate to wealthy whites while supporting the ideals of hard work and and unity at the same time rejecting the notion of racism and bigotry.

I'm uniquely qualified to speak on this issue because I can relate to both perspectives whereas you cannot. Your viewpoint in all things is very limited. Jesus had similar qualities in that he could relate to poor and to wealth. Of course I'm not comparing myself to Jesus but if you're a Christian which most republicans claim to be then the lessons of the gospels are totally lost on you guys. Much of what you espouse is hypocrisy run amuk. Originally Posted by Zanzibar789

He did not have indoor plumbing or Electricity until the late 50's. He had to go to School just to learn English. His family all spoke French. They grew, raised, fished and hunted for their food. so blah blah blah...
When I was born he was barely making ends meet, I was on School lunch program. I had to wear hand-me-downs,. I was poor...

Anyway he went on to make millions of dollars in today's numbers, Why??? he worked his fuking ass off!!! He got up every fuking day and went to work!!!

Moral of the story and my unique perspective. ANYONE WITH HARD WORK CAN MAKE IT IN AMERICA!!

Good point, Dali. No, I would not.

I wouldn't show up to a KKK rally either.

Considering the nature of our modern media and the demagoguery of the left, any republican who did show up unless they were old enough to be there would be attacked (maybe literally) for being there. The narrative of the press is that all republicans are racist and that would be the first question, "do you think it is in bad taste that you are here considering (the unsaid words) that your party is so racist?"

Like so many here say about Obama when he can't make a decision, damned if they do and damned if they don't.

If you think I'm blowing smoke, I'll give you the Paul Wellstone memorial where the republicans who were his friend were denied admittance because Al Gore was going to turn it into a campaign rally and the other democrats piled on with their own bullshit.

Lying bag of shit bitch.

George W. and Laura Bush were right up there on the podium in Selma yesterday. They even held hands with everyone.

And they weren't the only Repubs in attendance. Here's what the Washington Post reports:

"This Saturday, at least 95 House and Senate members were expected to make the Faith and Politics trip, including 71 Democrats, 23 Republicans and one independent. They didn’t have enough seats on their chartered plane, and they rented seven buses."

Seems like the whole premise of zanytard's thread - why weren't any Repubs there - is wrong! I guess zanyzit will have to find another reason to wallow in his unchristianlike hatred of the GOP.

.

I'm not going to read the entire thread but...

Is this like the 50th Anniversary of the Rosa Parks incident when Dims were complaining that no Republicans were showing up....

only to find out none were invited? Until a few days before when the "oversight" was found?

And Stanza confirms my comment, you can't win whether you go or come with the left.

The Manchurian Candidate earned his Nword from me. The proof is now obvious. Just look at his current approval ratings and the absolute RACIST behavior of his Administration, especially his AG Holder.

Would I call any black person, who respects the Rule of Law and works hard and doesn't make excuses about "Whitey" holding him/her down the Nword? No.

Would I call all those looters in Ferguson the Nword? i think the answer is obvious enough.
