Charges of racism can't be taken seriously when made by people who are overtly racist themselves.<br /><br />Of course, I don't think that that that's the "frank" discussion of race that AG Holder was referring too.Soccer Dadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16142724823098073038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-58242836176851238362010-08-08T19:11:38.393-04:002010-08-08T19:11:38.393-04:00LWB?

Is it possible to have greater irony?<br /><br />They are not merely organized to consider the supposedly special interests of their "black" constituents. They won't admit a "white" congressman to membership, regardless of who he or she represents.<br /><br /><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congressional_Black_Caucus" title="Wikipedia" rel="nofollow">The Congressional Black Caucus</a> is a group of congressmen and senators. They require black skin to be a member.<br /><br />===== Quote =====<br />Wikipedia [edited]: The Black Caucus allows only black members.<br /><br />Representative Pete Stark (D-Ca, White) tried and failed to join the Black Caucus in 1975. Stark: "I felt we shared an interest to help people in poverty. Half my Democratic constituents are African American. The Black Caucus voted no. They said that I was white, and they wanted the group to be limited to African Americans."<br />===== /Quote =====<br /><br /><a href="http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0107/2389.html" title="Politico - Black Caucus - Whites Not Allowed" rel="nofollow">Whites Not Allowed</a><br /><br />===== Quote =====<br />[edited] In January 2007, Representative Steve Cohen (D-TN, White) pledged to apply for membership in the Black Caucus to better represent his 60% black constituents.<br /><br />Although the bylaws of the Caucus do not make race a prerequisite for membership, former and current members of the Caucus agreed that the group should remain "exclusively black."<br /><br />Rep. William Lacy Clay, Jr. (D-Mo., Black) is the son of Rep. William Lacy Clay Sr. (D-Mo., Black) a co-founder of the Caucus. "Mr. Cohen asked for admission, and he got his answer. He's white and the Caucus is black. It's time to move on. We have racial policies to pursue and we are pursuing them, as Mr. Cohen has learned. It's an unwritten rule. It's understood." <br />===== /Quote =====<br /><br /><a href="http://EasyOpinions.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">EasyOpinions</a>Andrew_M_Garlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02855052302054611917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-46047111895341257592010-08-08T13:14:51.267-04:002010-08-08T13:14:51.267-04:00Priceless.

It's especially amusing to me in light of the fact that the CBC denied membership to New Orleans Congressman Anh "Joseph" Cao, the first Congressman of Vietnamese heritage. Of course, his attempt to join the Black Caucus struck me as a little odd at the time (and still does). Cao explained his attempt to join the Caucus as a means to represent the bulk of his constituency better. I guess it's a little like the Ryker's Island thing. <br /><br />Ah -- the machinations that politicians will endeavor.Moogie Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05665429537064900337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-9074871839487086342010-08-08T12:57:27.942-04:002010-08-08T12:57:27.942-04:00I rather liked the "I'm the only [fill in...I rather liked the "I'm the only [fill in the blank] who works here" card...LTC Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06423057539370247167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-4235885412936320712010-08-08T10:19:22.261-04:002010-08-08T10:19:22.261-04:00For a while, I've been posting my version of t...For a while, I've been posting my version of the Liberal creed in my comments: <br /><br />Above all, Liberalism!<br /><br />Above that, Obama!<br /><br />I believe it will apply here. The CBC can pull the race card all they want. Which is classic Liberalism. But if it comes down to the fact that Obama wants these two gone, and it looks to be the case with Rangle at least, then Liberalism is out the window and Obama must be obeyed.Van Halenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16636153816814457813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-15348035408859313182010-08-08T08:20:13.036-04:002010-08-08T08:20:13.036-04:00The race card has gotten used so much that its now...The race card has gotten used so much that its now a punchline.William A Manninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07194676936324150728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-34749482242812617152010-08-08T00:21:04.376-04:002010-08-08T00:21:04.376-04:00I'm honored!

The Stewart segment is so enjoyable, but it just goes to show that the rule of the game is: the race card may only be played against the opponent to your right.esqcapadeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05416916469017755662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-43283961134951289752010-08-07T22:09:14.798-04:002010-08-07T22:09:14.798-04:00TypicalTypicalBartender Cabbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05623813045706584212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-55562261402240490862010-08-07T20:44:07.948-04:002010-08-07T20:44:07.948-04:00It's gotten so bad and so obvious that they ma...It's gotten so bad and so obvious that they made a great skit!!! Funny and all too true.<br /><br />The best part, IMHO, was when the "Senior Black Correspondent" reveals the real reason for all the cards: everyone is a "victim" and looking for a way to avoid being held accountable. There was a book written years ago on this topic called <em>Nation of Victims</em>. The race card is indeed maxed out.<br /><br />Great comedy. From the usually left Stewart!
