Uh Oh .. Another one leaves the Plantation!

Quote:
Garry Cobb played football for USC and then for 11 years with the Philadelphia Eagles. He is now running for New Jersey’s 1st District seat as a Republican, and his explanation of why he is no longer a Democrat is very compelling.

Explaining that he kind of discovered that he was Republican due to his upbringing, he said that the massively negative effects of Lyndon Johnson’s War on Poverty had the most impact:

This was an incentive for the man to leave the home and it’s destroyed African-American families throughout the country.

I didn’t realize it but as I started thinking about it and growing up, because as a kid going to college, you know I was all into the Democratic Party and everything; then I started realizing they helped destroy our communities and we’re supposed to be celebrating electing these people.

Actually .. Democrats are destroying black communities.
Democrats are destroying white communities.
Democrats are destroying American communities.

Yes, he is automatically public enemy #1 to liberals. He will reflexively be called an evil person.

I think many of us, me included do not realize there are more black all the time turning to the GOP. Not only running for office as Republicans but leaning that way when voting. There will be more and more as years go by, I am sure.

Especially when they realize that Obama has made them an even lesser important minority when Amnesty is given to the 'Hispanics'!

Do you have any statistics to support that wishful thinking? Or anything at all to indicate that less than 90+% of black people will vote Democrat in coming elections?

OP starts a thread off by claiming anyone of color who disagrees with him is on a plantation, and it is now such a common right wing phrase that no one bats an eye.


If A liberal had made such a racially charged claim to those on the right this page would be 50 post long by now and the phrase "real Racist" would be all over the place.
