Black Republicans: 10 Famous African Americans With Ties To The GOP

(The Huffington Post)

friend munster, i appreciate truth. there is so very little actually being shared in this day and time. we must be careful of "feelings". that may be why you are so refreshing. the lack of truth and your assumption of others has affected your ability to interact with those that think differently than you. since i have actually lived (same space and house) with others different in skin color and culture than myself, it is hard for me to overlook your accusations of racism when it comes to one's opinions of the president. while you have the right to feel about him as you do, you do not have the right to throw unfounded accusations of racism at others as you do. that is pretty low even for your standards. your head-bobbing friends may not disagree with you...but i do and in my world that is all that matters. that is the truth. enjoy your day.

moderation...i think that would be the gold tee's for the grey hairs! actually very few courses have the black tee boxes. either way a bad day on the course beats the heck out of a good day at the office! enjoy your day!

lts- no grey tee ? Uhhh ohhh.

moderation, fair enough, saves me time to focus on other more pressing issues...like should i play from the white or black tee's today! maybe i should first consult with munster, since he has appointed himself the official color czar! ha

lts- that's ok,... um,I, uh...., I'm moving on to some other controversy. Ha (>;

moderation, i trust you and everyone have endured the latest round of snow to hit your area. it looked pretty from the wtap webcam. i have yet to fully look into your claim about the rights voting procedure changes, so for that reason i won't be able to discuss it with you at this moment.

Munster, the issues are not always as simple as being Black or White...but in your point it actually is! :-)

No. It's that democrates like having a Socialist President.

munster, are you prejudiced against his white heritage? you must be cause you never seem to fit that into your description of his race in your republican stereotype. give the man at least a whole credit instead of half. you most certainly must be paid to post all of the crud you clog this site with.

When the parties are trying to cut spending and balance the budget, I find it amusing that every special interest always quotes some statistic saying well this or that program is only “2%” or the budget or 3% of the budget or 1/1000% of the Fed’s budget. If we cut funding for Big Bird, you can keep every control tower in the USA fully staffed. So do you want to keep Big Bird or Air Traffic Control and airline safety?

Scrappile. Probably Ron Paul fits that description. I concede to that. But he never can get enough to win because he doesnt go with the flow and supports the constitution vehemently. I like him and Rand.

Is scrappile plagiarizing or channeling Robert Reich?

thank you for your opinion greek, but show me any of the 7 major party candidates promoted since 1996 that were America first, not global economist, main street not wall street, real citizens before "corporate" citizens, and I`ll vote for them, tell you something, I`ll believe corporations are citizens as soon as the state of Texas executes one.

Are there people who know how to play the system, you bet, but food stamps, disability, TANF, are 2%, of the federal budget, and here is a kick to the head for every dollar D.C., and state capitols spend on those programs, they spend 2 dollars on corporate welfare programs. Who gets all the freebies?

lts- I hope your Sunday was fulfilling. Mine has been filled with much, the least of which has been the beginning of winter storm Virgil. But, I wanted to make a point about how the right attempted to change the voting procedures,abruptly, in several states, and how the higher courts struck down those attempts. Where is the movement,now, to establish healthy voter eligability procedures? You know that movement was nothing less than an attempt to strongarm the left, and in the process, much was revealed about what integrity means to the voting masses.

attacked. however, having better safegards in place to protect the same is a great idea and one that should be supported. if the right to vote is priceless then why is it such a hardship to get an i.d. when many do not hesitate to travel for miles in all types of weather to get free stuff, money, healthcare and food amongst other things. the too much trouble argument is rather lame while enjoying one's taxpayer supported benefits and freebies. i will address your school comment later. have a great evening!

scrappile, it seems that for some admitting to the blatant reverse racism is something ingrained in them as being taboo. your belief that they were somehow not informed about the man who is obama is a rather degrading dodge on your part. if anything with the 24/7 information, pro and con, about obama being broadcast by all media and the circles of society, there is simply no way to say that a vote based solely on his race was not racist. racism like preference can be applied to any choice we make in life from political candidate to whom we spend the rest of our lives with. many times personal preference is pushed aside for the sake of popular opinion. to answer your question, yes, i do blame blacks for voting as they did......they based their vote as you have pointed out in a misinformed way. many chose race over informed choice. a novelty, if you will, which i think degrades the public office as well as the american people. voting rights of the legally qualified to vote are not being

Scrappile. I hope you feel better knowing that a 3rd party person that has a snowballs chance in surviving a desest got your vote. As far as I am concerned you have no room to complain - but , rest assured, you got your point across by wasting your vote !!! Sarcasm intended.
