Apparently she thinks she's the voice of "Mama Grizzlies".
Aren't the "Mama Grizzlies" embracing right wing/conservative philosophies?

And I always find it quite interesting that when a Black Republican decides to speak their mind, express their individual point of view or even hint at a critic of the Republican party or its leaders, they are immediately attacked and are shouted down.

Interesting.....

Black Republican: Sarah Palin Doesn't Speak For Us - Beltway Beast - The Daily Beast (http://www.thedailybeast.com/beltway-beast/black-republican-sarah-palin-doesnt-speak-for-us/ - broken link)

Wow....that's mind-blowing. People say they can speak for themselves!!! or, at least their group does....

Honestly....I'm a white republican and she doesn't speak for me. But the question is, really.......why do you care? Why should I care? Is she an elected official? Does she hold any position within the Republican party?

It's actually quite entertaining watching liberal's heads explode whenever Palin opens her mouth.


But really.....I have yet to see ANYONE actually document any racist remarks she or Dr. Laura said. Can you point them out to me?

The new black panther party embraces left wing/liberal philosophies. Malik Shabazz is the voice of the NBPP. Does that mean he believes or is the voice of the left?

Again, I'll ask who is being referred to as a "hillbilly"? Is this a new Progressive buzz word to project elitism over those who hold differing views?

Right....and I forgot to add that they (Black Republicans) are then accused of playing the proverbial RACE CARD.
