Chris Matthews Nailed It- The GOPU Is Back To Their Racial/Racist Appeals
The Republicant's are playing the dog whistle politics that has become their forte... "Community organizer" is Republicant code for left wing activists and in Senator Obama's case black, left wing activists...


I don't see how any African American can be a Republicant when they play these games...Black folks are not political footballs...

An African American voting for McCain is like a chicken voting for Colonel Sanders...

1. It's funny when white folks pick out the 3 existing black republicans for criticism....
Rather than the bajillions of white bigot republicans.

2. Unfortunately, we have "small town values".
A lot of African Americans are anti-abortion, pro-church, anti-gay.

And we're used to having racists in office, so it's just not that new.

You can ask the same of the Log Cabin Republicans. Why are THEY supporting McCain?

I guess they have their reasons.

3. Both Parties Play Games
But at least when the Democrats play these games African Americans aren't the target...

4. It was funny when
Chris compared McSame and Failin to the old news anchor with the young newsette at the desk beside him.
