Well, we know that Clinton was America's first Black President, but was he really "black-black"? And of course, Rahm Emmanuel is a Jew and not really "white-white".

 

Or something like that. And no matter what, Chicago is boned.

2 Yup, if Clinton comes in to campaign for Rahm against Davis and Carol Mosely Brown, he's just a racist cracker from Arkansas.  Heh!

3 So what will the "Black Community" call Obama if he comes and campaigns for Rahm?  Chances are good he will as he has vowed to spend more time outside of D.C. next year so he can connect better with the great unwashed masses.

4 I do not get black support of Clinton any more than I did their support of Dead Teddy. Bush (stupidly) sends billions of (my) $ to Africa but he's despised. Clinton has only ever believed in Clinton, and the occasional bimbo, but he's revered. Barry hasn't yet done a damned thing right is overwhelmingly supported. A cynical person might say the conservatives should abandon the black voters, and shoot for the hispanics and asians. Damn but this is a stupid world we live in.

5 Chicago is a classic liberal plantation.  Concerned white man on top, poor black man sucking hind tit.

6 That race card, is there nowhere it can't be used?

7 "...efforts to thwart the legitimate political aspirations of Chicago's Black community," Davis said in the statement.

Typical race-baiting bullshit from the Osama Obama/Black Panther/Eric Shabazz Holder crowd.

Supporting another candidate is not "thwarting legitimate political aspirations," tool. It's a preference, no more and no less.

I don't know if Davis has any claim to suitability for public office other than his skin color, but statements like this tell me he does not.

As long as this attitude exists -- and, worse, is pushed by cheap race-hustlers like the Mohammedan Mouthpiece, Sharpton, and the Jesse Jacksons -- true Constitutional equality (where success is based on ability and accomplishment, not liberal hand-outs) cannot happen.

8 Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

9 It's really marvelous to watch their identity politics fracture along these lines. It's almost as if they have been trying all along to create discrete political populations!

10 I'm guessing that this would make a lot more sense if you were on some kind of hallucinogenic drug.

11 Let a playa play!

12 Vote for Obama's boy-toy! Thwart the legitimate political aspirations of Chicago's Black community!

13 Teabagging racism. Straight-up.

If you tea-baggers could only discover the health benefits of dog urine, you might not be so racist and stuff.

14 It won't work. Rahm's a Known entity to Chicago pols. If it works, it says alot about or future with Racial Politics (ie we are destined to Banana Republic status)

15 According to a recent poll, Emanuel is garnering close to 44 percent of support from likely Chicago voters while Davis is far back at 7 percent. Should be an easy win for Murkowski.

16 Color matters!

17 Chicago is an absolute gd mess. It rotten to the core and it's sinking under the weight of its corruption, the political correctness and bloated union contracts. And yet the idiots keep voting the same corrupt bastards in every election

Clinton wields the Gold Race Card, but Obama wields the Platinum Race Card.

Don't leave DC without it! Pass the popcorn, this  should be enterntaining.

20 I think I read somewhere that Rahm is over polling 40% higher than the next candidate.  He won his House seat with 74% of the vote.  That's almost in Castro/Sadaam Hussein territory.

21

The "African American community" will get behind Rahm.

Obama's behind Rahm (if he isn't mayor, he could write a book and he knows where the Obama corpses are buried) and besides, Obama hates independent black politicians.  He doesn't want a black mayor in Chicago with a mind of his own.

Obama has been good for black politicians though -- Republicans.  But I would gather that there will be fewer black Democrat politicians at all levels of government (possibly even including the Federal executive branch, but I would argue that doesn't count for my thesis) in 2011 than ever before.  Anybody got the numbers on that?

22 Bill can use that as a good excuse not to become further involved in Obama's political agenda...seeing as how Hillary! is going to challenge Obama in the primary.

23

DiT:98 (yeah, I totally forgot)

Looking good, DiT. Looking real good!

24 The race card has an infinite number of uses. Who knew?

25 Looking at everything through the lens of race must be tiring.

26 Obama hates independent black politicians.  He doesn't want a black mayor in Chicago with a mind of his own.

Wait....these people exist?

27 Whoa, not so fast there, Davis. Who's going to bring in Obama's stash? The little black guy, Rahm Emanuel, that's who.

28

17 Chicago is an absolute gd mess. It rotten to the core and it's sinking under the weight of its corruption, the political correctness and bloated union contracts. And yet the idiots keep voting the same corrupt bastards in every election.

Chicago is Detroit in a better dress.

29 Do lenses of race come in bifocals?

30

If this is their logic, didn't Half-Wonder Bread Obama "thwart the legitimate political aspirations of Chicago's Black community" when he steamrolled Alice Palmer for her State Senate seat?

Hell, Osama Obama ran for the Senate against Alan Keyes, and Keyes was WAY blacker than the Mohammedan Mouthpiece.

34 The above statement just goes to show the absolute racism of the average black politician and the bankruptcy of their communist movement.

Take it at face value and reverse the races:

"The American white community has enjoyed a long and fruitful relationship with the xxx politician, however it appears as though some of that relationship maybe fractured and perhaps even broken should former President xxx come to town and participate overtly in efforts to thwart the legitimate political aspirations of Chicago's white community, (unsaid by supporting a black candidate)" Davis said in the statement.

If a white candidate had said that about a black supporting a black candidate the networks and the MFM would be screaming so loud you could hear it on Mars.

Holder would be prosecuting as well.

She doesn't count either.

37 I'm not even sure why Clinton is wasting his time for Rahm.  Obviously, the game is rigged and the outcome pre-decided: get set to hear about Mayor Emanuel for the Rest of Your Life.

Beyond that, what after all did Obama do for Clinton except defeat Hillary for the Presidency?

Unless I misread what Amishdude wrote, he wasn't referring to Black Republican politicians.

41 I do have to say, though... this leaves President BOHICA in an interesting spot.  Based on this letter, the "black community" in Chicago can't be okay with BHO campaigning for Rahm, either.  So what does the most racially charged president in recent history do?

If he supports Rahm, who does know where the proverbial bodies are buried, he loses his base in his own home-town.  And, once they're lost, it's possible he faces the same "preference cascade" with blacks that he did with the rest of the nation. (not likely, but certainly possible)

If he opposes Rahm... well, Rahm knows where the proverbial bodies are buried.  And "Dead Fish" may well threaten to go public with them if BHO even just tries to sit out.

Oh, I thought he was just referring to ANY independent minded black politician.  Just with a slight emphasis towards the sinister side of the aisle.

Well, he specifically mentioned black R's in his second paragraph.  But again, maybe I'm misreading it.

45 Bush (stupidly) sends billions of (my) $ to Africa but he's despised. Posted by: cali grump at December 29, 2010 10:00 AM (hL0k I'm not sure African Americans care what happens to Africans. For one, they think we hate them, which is probably true for lots of Africans. Maybe hate is a strong word. But most Africans have a certain negative view of African Americans, which is just re-inforced by their behavior. (I myself don't have enough energy to hate whole groups of people.) Anyway, I don't believe many AAs know that they're not descended from Cleopatra and the Nubian kingdoms but from us non-exotic West and Central Africans. Just one person's perspective based on limited observations.

46 When Harold Washington was mayor, the Bears won a Super Bowl.  It might just be worth it to have a black mayor (of course, the 2011 Super Bowl will be decided prior to the election).

LOL, one of the funniest things I ever saw on that score happened at a pub in Mombasa, Kenya years ago. A bunch of us were sitting there drinking our warm Tusker Lager when a group of blacks from the ship came in and started a "shuck 'n jive" routine reminiscent of Airplane with the bartender (who was black).

He got all proper with them and said in the best proper British butler voice "I beg your pardon". You could tell he held them with absolute disdain.

48 Hi sim! Yeah, laughter. From your link: CIVIL RIGHTS. During the eight years of the Bush era, the U.S. Department of Justice was a politicized agency that went after political adversaries and failed to investigate civil rights violations. Under President Obama, the Justice Department and the EEOC have returned to enforcing employment discrimination laws, the things they were meant to do. Ha ha. Ha ha ha. Ha ha ha ha. *cries*

49 since the AA community by which I mean professional pols like Davis abandoned, betrayed and then knifed the Clintons in the back with race cards, who gives a flying fxck what they say about Big Dawg campaigning for Rahmbo?

AA male youth UE is 34% and they support Obama unconditionally?

Big Dawg helped GROW the economy so these people , and all of us, had JOBS

Frakkin moron.

Besides, we blue collar Dems have ALREADY LEFT the party
No Clinton, No vote

Frakkin morons

50 PS Big Dawg is still LIVID that they played the race card against him in the primaries, Davis may be in for a real surprise

I think Bill is tired of this shxt and may DOUBLE his campaign stops for Rahmbo just to pixx Davis off

Hell maybe I should donate to Rahmbo, Davis pixxed me off too

frakker.

>> but from us non-exotic West and Central Africans. Just one person's perspective based on limited observations.

Having had the privilege of meeting you, I'm going to have to politely disagree with the description "non-exotic" in reference to yourself.

34 The above statement just goes to show the absolute racism of the average black politician and the bankruptcy of their communist movement.

One of the big things about politics that I've learned is that people think that others see the world the way we do. Why do liberals accuse conservatives of racism? Because they are obsessed with race. But their reaction to their race obsession is a noblesse oblige or paternalistic condescension.

This is why they also talked about Bush's rich friends or oil buddies.  They just assumed that Bush did things to benefit a friendly constituency.  That either he wanted to benefit a constituency he favors for some financial advantage for himself or that he has an altruistic view that leads him to benefit them.

Because that's how liberals operate.  They think that politics is the art of getting stuff for you and for those you favor.  This is why Rangel gets a pass, he's supposed to use the system to enrich himself -- that's what Bush did after all. There's no evidence of that, but since liberals can't conceive of any other way to conduct politics, that's the only answer that fits their worldview.

And Rangel fights for "us".  Well, he doesn't really.  He uses us to get stuff for himself, but we know the Republicans aren't saying they're fighting for "us" and want to give us the crumbs from their table, but the Democrats at least use us as cannon fodder to get stuff for themselves, so we'll go with that.  It's nice to be pandered to, even if it comes to nothing.

Rahm gets stuff. He threatens and extorts.  He's a rainmaker.  And even if the rain falls only on his own land, that's OK.  Davis?  He won't be able to get stuff, he isn't on the inside.

What I meant was that Obama has undercut, either explicitly or through neglect, black policitians who weren't directly beholden to him.  So, in the administration, there are quite a few, but he undercut Paterson and Rangel and was tepid in his support of Meek.  He didn't want Burris anywhere near Washington.

Black Republicans have done fairly well, though.  Many were emboldened to run and quite a few won, not just West and Scott, but at the local level.

55 Chicago is jealous of Detroit.

Anyway, I don't believe many AAs know that they're not descended from Cleopatra and the Nubian kingdoms

Trivia fact: Cleopatra wasn't African except that she lived there.  She was Greek.  Part of the Ptolomy family that ruled Egypt for hundreds of years during the time of the Roman Empire.

57 I respectably agree with DiT, Chique d'afrique. You could be a model making Millions!!

Wait...what?  Pics or it didn't happen as well as a phone number and a signed affidavit that you find mathematicians "extra sexy".

 In 2010, the President signed the Fair Sentencing Act, which narrowed the huge disparity between sentences for possession of crack cocaine vs. powder cocaine

Of course, the disparity was put into place to placate...you guess it, the AA community.  Back in the 80s, crack was The Big Issue and was "devastating" the inner cities and "something" had to be done.

So, they did, federal sentencing for crack was increased.

But as usually happens, the AA community is focused on criminals.  The CJ system is, we must suppose, a conspiracy against young black males (not young Indian males or old black females so the racism motivation seems to be oddly specific).

Now, I don't know if this will make a difference at all but I'm going to take a wild stab that President "a little blow if you could afford it" didn't raise the sentences for powder cocaine.

60 Yes, I found that out recently, hence the inclusion of Cleopatra in my post.

It's something I learned relatively recently.  I kind of assumed she was a sort of Mediterranean African and of the same stock as the Copts, but also learned recently about her Greek roots.  I took by your sentence that she and the Nubian Kingdoms were connected in a meaningful way, sorry.

Still, it's amazing what basic things we don't learn.  I blame my American public school education.

61 I blame my American public school education.

Ancient Egyptians invented algebra, and could fly.

62 Cleopatra was a beautiful brunet with purple eyes while Mark Anthony was a tall man who spoke with a British accent.

Yep, she was an inbred Greek Macedonians. Technically it was still the Roman Republic until she and Marc Antony snuffed it and Octavius became sole ruler thus transforming himself to Augustus and the Republic to an empire. Sorry, I'm a total history nerd

64 What? Danny Davis is running for mayor of Chicago? Does this mean he's leaving the House? If it does, great, but if that's not necessarily the case, then for God's sake, we need to support him in any way possible. He wouldn't be any different than any typical Chicago mayor, and neither would Rahm Emmanuel. The upside is we make sure we get Davis's ass out of Congress where it does not belong.That guy is the biggest nineteen sixties-seventies era liberal Democrat relic since Ted Kennedy.He even still supports old-fashioned liberal gun control.I'm serious. Who does he think he is still supporting gun control, a Democratic appointee to the Supreme Court or something?

65 You bastards . . .LOL

66 Next thing you're going to tell me is that my Black Irish ancestors weren't Moors...and it's ironic the thread turns toward a discussion of hereditary kingdoms in the Near East when it started off talking about the next ma're of Chicago.
