A handful of prominent liberal celebrities made some negative statements about certain black conservatives. OK. But that doesn't mean all liberals agree with those opinions. I don't hate conservatives of any color, not at all. Most of my family are conservative. Some of their views are hateful to me, I'll admit, but they are still wonderful people. They have their own reasons for being the way they are. And I still love them.

A person's political views are only part of their identity. I try to see the big picture and judge people by their actions, not their words. All this liberal-conservative warfare makes me very sad because Americans are fighting each other and demonizing the other side. These bitter feelings run almost as deep as they did right before the Civil War. A country that is divided against itself cannot stand, to paraphrase Lincoln. We need to find some common ground as Americans and stop sniping at each other, which accomplishes nothing.

Liberals: Their pure hatred of black conservatives

I notice, over and over again, that RWNJ's reference hate a lot. It seems to be projection, as if it is the only emotion they understand.

Carry on ...

That may be 100 percent of the black people you know, but it's not 100% of the black people I know.

Your sample size is too small to derive any generalities.

I lived in area that is mostly conservative all my life and I do not ever hear people talking about blacks the way you say conservatives do. So I'd appreciate if you'd take your divisive rhetoric elsewhere and it would be nice if you'd be more respectful to these people who are just trying to make their way in life without this kind of garbage.

Yet you try to refute what I've experienced throughout my life. So basically your saying that only your experience counts and because I'm conservative that my experience means nothing.

Now I could tell you a thing about my experience talking with liberals, they're pretty condescending as if it were not for them you couldn't survive. They seem to have this thing about trying to fit in, or trying to prove something. You know... the fake types.

Now I could tell you a thing about my experience taking with liberals and their thought pattern of blacks, as if it were not for them you couldn't survive. They seem to have this thing about trying to fit in, or to try to prove that they're great. You know... the fake type of people.

Hey, you want to point a finger and accuse one group that's on you. Me, I'm good.
Always telling when a Conservative thinks he can pat himelf on the back for seeing what millions of Blacks are too dumb to see for themselves. I bet the next step down this thought process involves arguing that maybe slavery wasn't so bad since those dumb Blacks refuse to think for themselves...

You can do better than that. Explain to us how the 90% of Black voters whose vote you disagree with are blind to the facts that you see so clearly. All those millions of people being wrong about a basic fact must say something about that group as a whole, right?

Did I say that? I said I only know two black people really. Just being honest. Both former military with no time for the BS welfare state the Democrats push on their people.
