A generalization. They're like bots. Glazed eyes, fearful and mean-spirited on the inside (while pretending to be oh-so-Christian on the outside), anti-abortion and pro-war (go figure), thinks the George Bushes and Sarah Palins of the world are just wonderful, thinks global warming is either untrue or a leftist conspiracy, racist, anti-semitic (they love the Jews, even if they think that Jews will burn in hell), etc. The list goes on. All under the banner of God. In short: nutjobs.

Black conservatives are often called ‘Uncle Toms’ and worse. Jesse Jackson called black conservative Ward Connerly a ‘house slave.’

Theres’ more, from How The Left Trashes Black Conservatives:

The late columnist Carl Rowan sarcastically suggested that “if you give Thomas a little flour on his face, you’d think you had [former Klansman] David Duke.” San Francisco mayor Willie Brown called Thomas not only “a shill for the most insidious form of racism, but also a man whose views are “legitimizing of the Ku Klux Klan.” Brown added that Thomas “should be reduced to talking only to white conservatives,” and “must be shut out” by the black community.”

The ugliness goes on and on. Political scientist Manning Marable asserts that Thomas has “ethnically ceased being an African American.” Movie director Spike Lee calls Thomas “a handkerchief-head, chicken-and-biscuit-eating Uncle Tom.” Author June Jordan characterizes him as a “virulent Oreo phenomenon,” a “punk-ass,” and an “Uncle Tom calamity.” The late Haywood Burns, who was the dean of a New York law school and chairman emeritus of the National Conference of Black Lawyers, called Thomas a “counterfeit hero” whose ideals had “crushed or forever deferred” the dreams of millions of blacks. Columnist Julianne Malveaux told a television audience, “I hope [Thomas’s] wife feeds him lots of eggs and butter, and he dies early, like many black men do, of heart disease. . . .He’s an absolutely reprehensible person.”

It is so apparent that you know absolutely NOTHING about conservative Christian woman. I won't waste my time refuting foolish stereotypes by someone who cannot even take the time to get to know conservatives personally to find out if his stereotypes are true or not.

Ok, it's a bigot's party. Does that make you feel a little better?

I am glad you have such faith in the racial tolerance of White Democratic party officials in rural Georgia, Louisiana, Alabama and Mississippi and know them all by name and personal beliefs. But as a Black Man I don't have that level of confidence in all of them and sure as heck don't in your obnoxious White Liberalism. If you think Black America is better off because of people like you then truly you don't understand your holier then thou plantation mindset.

Amazingly, you and Padcrasher are not even commenting on the articles that Tuborg is providing us about the loony left's reaction to black conservatives. Hitting a nerve?
