Meet Mia Love. You'll be seeing a lot more of her.

There IS no connotation. Articulate is articulate, look it up. No racial connotation at all. Well, except maybe in the true racists 'urban dictionary.'

Ishmael

Bullshit. Anyone who knows anything about race relations in the US knows better than to refer to a black American as "articulate" or "clean" or any of that kind shit.
 
I'm getting tired of those two presumptuous pricks, trying to play the race card on the word "articulate." Fucking stupid.

Like I said, you are either abysmally ignorant, or a gigantic asshole. Maybe both.
 
Yeah well I didn't mean it that way in any shape or form, and I'm tired of liberals and other PC racists developing lists of innocuous words like "articulate," historically complimentary anywhere else, that all of a sudden white people cannot use to describe black folks.

If I said that Jimmy Carter was less articulate than Bill Clinton, nobody would put a racial connotation on it. It's because racists like Zumi and other PC types have already decided that black folks are not articulate, that they can even begin to reason that such a description has to have a racial connotation.

You should have said that earlier, dumbass.
 
Yeah. I get it. Rob is on the approved racist list. Vette is not insulting Love, but he needs to be called out NOW, Rob IS insulting all blacks, but his little liberal dick is in the right hole.

As to the "real black" trope of yours because she prefers to straiten her hair for her own reasons, it just goes to show what a racist you are that you, alone, get to choose what is verity, as you articulately like to put it.

Rob got called out on his shit looonnnnng before you stepped up and reinvented yourself as a conservative pill. So I'm off that. You can stay and ride it as long as you want to, since you think he can get away with something that you want to do but can't.

And black women needing to straighten their hair in order to be more acceptable in this society is a verity you'll never ever have to deal with, much less understand correctly. I don't expect someone who thinks his privilege is a myth to get verity like that, so don't pull your hair out over it. :)

Tell us what Rob is all about.

Why? You wanna date him?
 
Bullshit. Anyone who knows anything about race relations in the US knows better than to refer to a black American as "articulate" or "clean" or any of that kind shit.

Bullshit......both Blacks and Whites are, or can be articulate.
 
Vettebigot thinks as long as he doesn't drop the *n* bomb, he can skirt around his obvious racism.

Wheras: Rob can drop the *n* bomb and has no need to skirt around anything because Zumi, (our resident expert on all things black), "knows what he is about."

That, my fellow white privileged friend is verity. Believe that.

No wonder blacks find it hard to vote R. You people just don't get it when you are insulting black people.

Explain the blacks in Nevada that voted for Reid, then?

As far I know, Bob hasn't called anyone the *n* word. He uses it by putting that word in other's mouths, which is wrong.
 
What's this obsession about Mia Love and the Congressional Black Caucus? If she wants in the caucus, she'll be in. Black Republicans in the past haven't seemed very interested in joining, probably because they believe their constituencies wouldn't care for it. I don't know about Allen West, but Tim Scott has never joined by his own choice, and I believe J.C. Watts was in only briefly before he bailed.

The "black" caucus has a stated policy of not admitting any whites (even good liberal democrats representing predominantly black districts) and conservatives of any color.

Hmmm, let's see now, if I tell a Black he's articulate, he'll be insulted, because he's really supposed to be stupid.... I think I get it.

For everyone else out there in La La Land who likes their factual information from a source that doesn't come out of its own ass, here's The Congressional Black Caucus' policy, taken directly from their website:

Since its establishment in 1971, Members of the Congressional Black Caucus have joined together to empower America’s neglected citizens and to address their legislative concerns.For more than 40 years, the CBC has consistently been the voice for people of color and vulnerable communities in Congress and has been committed to utilizing the full Constitutional power, statutory authority, and financial resources of the Government of the United States of America to ensure that everyone in the United States has an opportunity to achieve their version of the American Dream.

The legislative agenda of universal empowerment that Members of the Congressional Black Caucus collectively pursue include but are not limited to: the creation of universal access to a world-class education from birth through post secondary level; the creation of universal access to quality, affordable health care and the elimination of racially based health disparities; the creation of universal access to modern technology, capital and full, fairly-compensated employment; the creation and or expansion of U.S. foreign policy initiatives that will contribute to the survival, health, education and general welfare of all peoples of the world in a manner consistent with universal human dignity, tolerance and respect and such other legislative action as a majority of the entire CBC Membership may support.


Also, this People magazine article has Mia Love in saying that she's going to join the CBC.

Anything else we don't know, Query? You're the answer man, right? :D

No, I don't think that you get it.

Are you surprised and shocked when a white person is "articulate"?

The otherness of an articulate black person lies in your perception of black people.

I don't expect you to get it.
 
...and as soon as I see anyone on the left calling out Harry Reid for the racist buffoon he is who did mean exactly that I will consider taking positive "dog whistles" seriously.



It took Reid until 2010 to issue an apology for the remark which was graciously and publicly accepted the very same day by the President.

Zumi argued with me for two weeks that some racial stereotypes, though clearly with a racial component are intended to be positive. Wrong-headed that they may be.
Not sure why you're chiming in on this, but okay. ;)

I can't speak for Zumi, and as I'm a moderate/centrist, I doubt my calling Reid out will give you quite the same effect, but it was obviously a racist comment. His apology only wipes a small portion of the stink off of it.

But shouting "they do it too" is silly, isn't it?

When it comes down to it we're talking about integrity. You can't force integrity on someone, you can only worry about having some yourself.
 
True that. They get nowhere posing as Democrat Lite. The social conservative BS has to go. You cannot want government out of your lives and intervening the "right" way on social issues.

That's it exactly. The smaller government message is a winner, I think. But when the small government is only selective (don't regulate guns, banks, or business . . . but marriage and birth control are on the table), the message is lost, and they look hypocritical. Whether it will translate into minority votes is anyone's guess, but it's a place to start.
