    The point is that the left never thinks a Black conservative is authentic . No doubt Scott will be the subject of disgusting epithets from the left, like all Conservative minorities are .

    I'm sure if an individual utters one you will find it and attribute it to all adherents of the party of which you are not a member. That's what happens here over and over.

    And in the 50s and 60s it was Republicans like Bull Connor, George Wallace and Lester Maddox that MLK was fighting?

    No, what happens over and over is we quote one or two people and you incorrectly accuse us of maligning the whole group in your never-ending quest to discredit us. But I'm here to set you straight. You're welcome.

    Feel free to provide such evidence other than "blah blah blah." But since you can't, you might try discussing the issue for a change instead of your usual, undeserved personal digs.

    I was discussing tom's point. I guess you'd better tell him to shut it.

    Karma you know you can't tell a racist he's racist anymore than you can tell an egotist he's up himself

    Hello again,

    Why DID you trot out your lone black senator?? No, really? I want to know... Was it to show us how INCLUSIVE you are? I think it WAS. Was it to show us how you've LEARNED from past mistakes? Seriously. I don't know what your motivation is.

    I BELIEVE that his selection as a replacement senator is meant to SHOW black folk, and/or liberal folk, just how far to the CENTER your party can move. They should LIKE you now. Or something...

    Now, of course, comes your Tea Party black token. You know how I KNOW he's a token?? It's simple, really. He was put into office by WHITE people. He enjoys NO support from his own community... So, he doesn't represent black people at all. He represents what WHITE people THINK about black people. Come to think of it, we have one of those on the Supreme Court.

    Did you tweet him back? Or post your displeasure on his website? Or contact the radio station to voice your opinion?

    Wow, just wow. You have sunk to levels I would not have expected from you. So you actually believe there is a litmus test for being black. Wow.

    I guess it's an example of why republicans are so impotent at making change happen. As opposed to going right to the source to try to effect change they seem to choose to rage in anonymous fashions.
