Title: Republicans are looking for a great white hope?
Post by: clips on August 31, 2009, 08:02:46 AM

According to Lynn Jenkins they are...damn lady we\'ve ONLY had great white hopes for the presidency for the last 80 gazillion years or so,(that i myself didn\'t have a problem votin\' for) but now you get a black prez in there and all of a sudden the republicans have to look for a great white hope?...:rofl:

I guess that token michael steele isn\'t working out for them so it\'s back to the drawing board and business as usual...and then these fools wonder why they can\'t get minorities interested in their party...

Congressional Republicans from small red state districts are dumb.  What else is new?
 
BTW there are also dumb Democrats from small districts.

Tru enough...most polititians are idiots...doesn\'t matter what party they\'re from...both sides have done things thast have me scratchin\' my head....that said, when it comes to votin\' i\'ll vote for the person who i think can best handle the situation(whether it\'s a repub or a dem)....as far as this thread is concerned..for the most part i consider myself a dem so any knock against the repubs that i see that are idiotic, i\'m gonna post them. ;)

It also seems to bring out those pesky republican supporters(giga) and those republican sympathizers(mr. kennedy)...:D

On the contrary, most politicians are smarter, smart enough to get a majority of people to vote for them.  The real idiots are the people who put them in office.

Just my .02

Depending on the politician, there are certainly times I\'d chalk that up more to charisma than intelligence.

I\'m sure glad no one tapes me every time I go out in public.  Guarantee you I\'d offend someone on an hourly basis.

She wasn\'t just walking down a street.  She was in a town hall speaking into a microphone with a video camera pointed at her.  It takes a special kind of stupidity to take full advantage of that situation.

Watched the video.  I dunno, speaking as a dirty brown man it doesn\'t seem like it was intentional or racist at all.  But if you read a text excerpt from her Q&A meeting it can sound pretty harsh.

Sucks to be her.
