Re “(Our) nation… having lasted some 400 years under (our) Constitution.”

It all depends on how you define Nation and Constitution.

Obviously Sheila Lee, like Humpty Dumpty in Through The Looking Glass believes, “When I use a word it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.”

“The question is,” said Administrator, “whether you can make words mean so many different things.”
“The question is,” said Rep. Sheila Lee, “who is to be master, you and Merriam dash Webster, or me and the government— that’s all.”

People like MuckAbout are just as ignorant as Jackson-Lee. Sounds like there’s a bunch of racists or closet KKK members making comments.

Americans like “politicians they can have a beer with”. Uh, don’t you want someone that understands history, diplomacy, math, etc. Ron Paul was the smartest politician I’ve seen. If you voted for any of the other retards for President, you are part of the problem too.

Truly a moron… but I agree that there seems to be some focus, here and on conservative news sites, on the stupidest blacks in the House. I’m sure there are whites in the House who will give them a run for the money. I have personally seen a white-Jewish-lawyer Congressman speak at a small gathering (200 or so) and everyone there was speechless at his level of dementia and basic inability to function. The room was silent, and it wasn’t out of respect. Yet on television he’s made out to be some genius level hero.

Racist and other low-brow commentary (eg Stucky above) is reflective of an inability to reason properly, thus the need to engage in tactics which disparage others rather than challenge their logic and arguments.
The increase of such sentiment and behavior is also part of any ‘Fourth Turning’ scenario.

@card: there are tons of examples. Here are a few.

U.S. senate candidate Todd Akin notoriously pooh-poohed the possibility in 2012, saying, “If it’s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.”

Texas Rep. Jody Laubenberg is responsible for this twisted variation on the Akin theory, as heard during the debate sparked by Wendy Davis’ filibuster. In Laubenberg’s imagination, rape victims don’t need access to legal abortion, because they can just use “what’s called rape kits, where a woman can get cleaned out.”

“I think video games is a bigger problem than guns, because video games affect people.”
— Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.), quoted by Kotaku.

While campaigning for the White House in 2008, Joe Biden criticized the Republicans’ handling of the financial crisis and said, “When the stock market crashed, Franklin D. Roosevelt got on the television and didn’t just talk about the, you know, the princes of greed. He said, ‘Look, here’s what happened.’”

Nancy Pelosi on the economy: “Every month that we do not have an economic recovery package 500 million Americans lose their jobs.”

Get to work on white politicians? Just turn on cable TV and watch CNN, CNBC, Fox, etc. Most politicians are white idiots as are the real people running the USA’s government. But, notice no 1 ever points their race out every time.

The race of a politician has nothing to do with whether they’re morons like Stucky, it’s assumed. Smart people go into productive jobs, politicians are welfare recipients, but worse because they make laws.

That he may be dumber than Obomber and GW Bush is disturbing.

Bush, to give the guy some credit, was said to have actually asked Sith Lord Cheney why they should keep cutting taxes for the rich, maybe they should cut them for the middle class. Rumor has it he was shushed and told he wasn’t running the show. You do not question old boy, you follow orders.

But when it’s a black congress-ass or obama’s black half we cringe and want to give them a pass, because they’re black.

Ha, anyone who thinks I’m a bleeding heart liberal doesn’t have a clue. I just don’t want anyone to lapse into thinking that the main or only problem with Congress or politicians is the black ones. Most of Congress are idiots, and most of the ones who aren’t are evil. That leaves something like three or fewer critters who are neither stupid nor evil.

It’s really easy to point out the stupid things said by Lee, Jones and ex-critter C. McKinney. But a lot of people will smugly point to that and ignore the equally stupid, but more widely accepted, things said by the white critters who are regularly elected by suburban voters. From talking with LOTS of people I have found fewer voters that are dumber than the white suburbanites with college degrees and standard fare middle class jobs. They think they’re super intelligent because of their degree, job and economic status, but in fact they are typically the most ignorant of what they don’t know. Essentially, they are the Beta class from Brave New World, and damn proud of it.

Progressive racism and how it shapes public policy

The Left has been winning over the Right by spreading paranoia among the blacks about the hidden “racist” motivation of conservatives and Republicans. What will happen if the blacks find out that a major factor behind just about every “liberal” policy for the last 40 years has been the hidden racism of the white “progressive” Democrats?

Many are making a great point that may well start a wave of reverse paranoia, if only the message is allowed to sink in.

While it’s hard to imagine that racism is the only factor here – after all, socialist revolutions also happened in ethnically homogeneous societies – it’s also hard to argue that racism adds a very distinctive angle to the American brand of progressivism.

Let’s hope this insightful piece gets the attention it deserves. If anything, it can improve conservative messaging and help the Republicans deliver more effective counter-punches.

Progressive positions often seem inexplicable to outsiders because the proposals emanating from them usually manifest as colossal social engineering experiments, which the progressives have only devised as a distraction from the shameful racist motivations at the core.

Look carefully at most social or fiscal policies advocated by progressives and you’ll see that underneath their false public rationales lie hidden racist fears and assumptions — some of which the progressives may be too embarrassed to admit even to themselves, much less to the world.

Did anyone even watch that video? This nation has existed for 400 years? The constitution is 400 years old? Even a retard living in a cave know better.

Being that I was poorly educated by a non-national Common Core curriculum, I was falsely led to believe that the US Constitution was approved by the Constitutional Congress in 1787. However, thanks to my re-education from Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Tex), I now know that our once beloved and followed document is actually 400 years old.

Persnickety:
I wouldn’t compare Sheila Jackson Lee to Cynthia McKinney. The former is in agreement with whatever Obama wants to do, including and especially the Patriot Act renewals, NDAA, NSA/DHS/drones being great, etc. McKinney left the Democratic party in 2006, stating it was because the two parties were one and the same, and joined the Green. She agrees with Ron Paul on foreign policy more often than not and is consistently critical of “O” and the congresssheep who go along with him. I have a lot of respect for C. McKinney.

College Group Bans White People From Diversity ‘Happy Hour’

“That space is not for white people”

March 12, 2014

A group of employees at South Puget Sound Community College caused outrage after they made it clear that white people would not be welcome at a planned diversity “happy hour” event.

The event was focused around an effort ” to “build support and community” for people of color.

“If you want to create space for white folks to meet and work on racism, white supremacy, and white privilege to better our campus community and yourselves, please feel free to do just that,” stated an email which was sent out to 300 employees.

Students at the college expressed their bewilderment at why a “diversity” event would specifically exclude people of a certain race.

“This….contradicts the message they’re trying to send, don’t judge people based on their color but they’re judging white people because they’re white” said one student.

College spokeswoman Kellie Purce Braseth said the exclusion was “not condoned” by the school, adding, “If you want to come you should be able to come, that just makes a richer conversation.”

However, despite being forced to apologize, Karama Blackhorn, program coordinator for the school’s Diversity and Equity Center, who helped write the invitation, seemingly doubled down.

“That space is not for white people, that space is for people of color,” said Blackhorn, asserting that staff members cannot discuss race issues with white people present.

“That’s not diversity, that’s anti what we’re preaching here,” responded one student.

Indeed, Blackhorn’s claim that white people should be excluded from certain spaces or events at the college is no different philosophically to how black people were similarly discriminated against during segregation.

By asserting the contrived myth of “white privilege,” predominantly white liberals are attempting to rationalize the clearly ludicrous notion that it is impossible to be racist towards white people.

“A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government. A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover that they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship.”

“The average age of the worlds greatest civilizations from the beginning of history, has been about 200 years. During those 200 years, these nations always progressed through the following sequence:

* From bondage to spiritual faith;

* From spiritual faith to great courage;

* From courage to liberty;

* From liberty to abundance;

* From abundance to complacency;

* From complacency to apathy;

* From apathy to dependence;

* From dependence back into bondage.

Sadly, it appears Jackson-Lee & GW Bush went to Yale.

& no 1 said Jackson-Lee should get a pass. The question non of the closet racists answered is why, when it’s a black politician, that is always mentioned & the N word comes out along with all kinds of other derogatory names.

When the politician is white, U don’t see cracker, redneck or any white labels applied, no George Jefferson or Archie Bunker-like names in the comments. The commenters are getting mad because someone called them out. & they get mad because they know they’re as stupid as Lee, but possibly jealous she’s in office making good money.

Sounds like racism + jealousy. Sad.

Persnickety is more likely a Libertarian. Whoever he/she is, they’re smart.

But, Paul Craig Roberts, 1 of my idols, gets called a Liberal & a terrorist coddler by Republicans. If any of these idiots voted for Romney, they’re no less dumb than Dumbocrats.

Most of the people commenting here sound like RINOs or “conservatives” who don’t know anything about the Constitution. Fuck `em. When the economy collapses, they can blame it only on Jackson-Lee or some nonsense. Or, queue the dark music – “liberals”.

They’ll never admit that white WASPs are the main oligarchs because they’ve been voting in white idiots all their lives, so it makes them feel superior making fun of blacks or the poor or some group that has no real power.

When they need EBT because they’ve been fired too, then will they want special treatment like those they demonize? Everyone’s a capitalist when times are good, then socialists when they’re broke. We need programs to get us back to work! Bla bla bla.

@archie: what planet are you on? The middle class, some portion of which is WASP (really, not a huge portion these days), is doing very poorly…. but the true 0.1% elites who control things are about 50/50 WASPs and Jews. There’s hardly anyone else in the “I buy congressmen like you buy Charmin” category. The billionaire and near-billionaire elites have little to no affection for their racial, ethnic and religious counterparts in what used to be the middle class, but that doesn’t turn them into a different classification.

@Econman: thank you. I am a quasi-libertarian. It’s my starting point, but I realize that uncontrolled application of the capital-L Libertarian philosophy is likely to turn out very badly, as many forms of market deregulation in the last few decades have shown in their various areas. My view is that government should regulate as few things as possible, as little as possible, but I do not worship at the cult of the “invisible hand” of the “free” (ha!) market, and believe that some regulation is acceptable when there is a demonstrated need based on market abuses, or based on obvious common sense issues (e.g. would you want nuclear weapons sold at retail like we sell bread?).

persnickety, get a clue. can you define a WASP properly? the ruling class in this country was indeed WASP. it isn’t any longer. that group flew the coop in the sixties, heading for the hills for the most part, leaving the keys to the country to the jews and catholics. don’t believe me? look at the mastheads of our newspapers, and news rags. how about the hollywood studios? television studios? publishing houses? think tanks? university faculty? how about the supreme court? see any WASPS there? yeah, i didn’t think so.

the WASP survives inasmuch as he has adapted to the liberal cultural space he himself created.

yes, of course, there is some residual wealth and influence (compare old money with new money and get back to me), but for the most part the WASP class and WASP culture is dead and gone for good. but you can see it in its glory on the TV, on mad men, where they are depicted as drug addled buffoons. (check out the writer of the show–here’s a hint, he’s not a WASP).
