Is silverkris correct Rakin?


Do you agree? If not, why not?

I can’t help but laugh at the twisted logic that 2019 is chock full of terrible racism for us to discuss, but let’s also relive random racist moments from 48 years ago, too. They need a good old-fashioned rehash too, by George!

I don't think his comment was racist given he didn't call all black people monkeys.

He had a specific disagreement with some people in the UN.

Liberals call conservatives stupid all the time including black conservatives.

They refer to black conservatives as uncle toms.

I am glad this came out . . . to remind people what REAL racism is!

(As opposed to, for example, saying that anyone who doesn't like rap music or who shows any respect for the writers of the Constitution is a racist. )

P.S. I have never liked any Republican POTUS since Theodore Roosevelt (although, no, I wasn't alive back then, lol).

Republicans did run on Regans platform for 30 years, still have trickle down economics. This is the guy all of the 2008 and 2012 Republican candidates worshipped. Some Primariy debates were based on how many Reagens one could get in by the end of the debate. Heck Republicans even held a primary in California so they could stand in from of his Air Force One and receive his wisdom.

Its way more relavent than your letting on
