Isn’t it funny that folks like Pete and other Dems are so quick to call other people racists when their own man, Joe Biden was buddy buddy with Robert Byrd, an x (because he’s dead) KKK bigwig. They constantly try to bury the fact that the Democratic party is the party of slavery by pointing fingers at people who have nothing to do with racism. It’s so ridiculous that, like two people in an elevator and one farts, the one who farted points the finger at the other when leaving the elevator and facing someone trying to get on. Trying to blame someone else for your own deeds doesn’t remove the guilt, it just makes it all too clear who the jerk is.
Since you brought up Biden in this conversation, I found it interesting that he accused Georgia of putting "Jim Crow on steroids'" into place. Does Joe recall which party instituted Jim Crow laws? When he spoke of the filibuster having racist roots, does he remember which party used the filibuster to fight civil rights laws tooth and nail? I am guessing ol' Joe from Scranton doesn't have much of a brain left, and he has been so accustomed to lying and getting away with it that the msm was accusing him of blatant lies when he ran for President the first time in the 1980's (I think).
That’s pretty much the direction I was going. Tim Scott is black, no doubt about it. But because he openly says it like it is, there are those in the Democratic party who are now calling him an Oreo which to me, is an incredibly stupid racist remark. It’s like the Jenner debacle. He’s against biological males from entering into female sports but yet he’s being called transphobic. A trans being called transphobic? The left will use any term to belittle their personal opposition knowing that there is little the one being attacked can do about it. How does one Prove that he or she isn’t racist? It’s getting pretty extreme. If I were called pyrophobic (or something like that) I wouldn’t run into a burning building to prove I’m not. Or would I. Dunno.
She had nothing to do with it. That is entirely your doing. I had permanently banned you once before but she talked me into giving you another chance, and then I gave you yet another. No more. With that said, let's get this thread back on topic without the personal attacks. I don't know that much about Tim Scott. Since I never plan on voting again, I haven't done my homework on him, but I have heard him speak more than once, and when my opinion of a person is based almost entirely on having heard him speak, "articulate" or "inarticulate" are words that are likely to be used, whatever the person's skin tone. As I recall, the media rarely mentioned Obama in 2007 and 2008 without using the words "articulate" and "clean." Since he had no record to stand on, and he wasn't actually saying anything, what else was there to say other than "empty suit" and the media wasn't about to go there with a Democrat candidate. I guess it's okay to be articulate if you're a Democrat. Then there is Joe Biden, who goes beyond "inarticulate" to reach for "incoherent."
Here’s the 15 minute (or so) speech by Tim Scott which served as a rebuttal of Biden’s speech to Congress. I do not know a whole lot about him but if he stays on the same road he’s on, he’s definitely going to be a thorn in a lot of Democrat’s backsides. As it is, within minutes of making this speech he was then accused of being that OREO I wrote about earlier. I might mention also, that the backlash that Gary O’Connor received for that remark was severe enough for him the resign his seat as the Democratic Chair in Texas.
Actually, what I said was a direct quote from your Beloved Biden speaking about former President Obama. Remember? "Clean, smart, and articulate" And I'm not racist. I would vote for him even iffen he was white.
M'thinks that @Peter Renfro is a . You would think that a with his extensive experience would be better at it.
Methinks the cockwomble has been locked in a deep dark dungeon and will only resurface when he can reincarnate. Yes, I would also vote for Tim Scott, but here in Oregon our national votes don't count. I still vote and not sure why as even local and county issues get overturned if the governor or judges don't like the outcome of the people's vote. I would rather have Leo Terrel as a president, but he has no interest in running.
@Ken Anderson you have to realize that you not voting is exactly what the Left wants to accomplish. It has even been said by a commentator on MSNBC that all the low ratings for the MSM is probably a good thing, since it means no one is paying attention to what is being done to them. Whenever the Leftists have no argument, they start calling names, even if they make no sense. They don't care as long as they can get the under informed to react to their statements. Jenner and Scott are but two examples in a never-ending tirade of name calling when there is no substance to their arguments. The recently banned guy is a perfect example of this.
I immediately recognized the words I put in bold as being what Biden said about Obama. I remembered, and you, Shirl Girl, displayed real humor to use it in your OP! You always told me you were funny. I concur!
Great ticket! A black man and a white woman. There is no way we could lose the election. Anybody who doesn't vote Republican would be racist and misogynist.
