Tim Scott wins US Senate race and is 1st black to win statewide in SC since Reconstru

Re: Tim Scott wins US Senate race and is 1st black to win statewide in SC since Recon

One can only imagine how hypocritically outraged our DP conservatives would be if race was used by Democrats in this way.
Or should I say DP Republicans since the GOP won last night .

Who employs the economic policy? People.

Then you agree. An economic impact cannot be racist and, thereby, one must provide convincing evidence of motive.

Remember when you claimed that Kansas would go blue and they didn't? That was hilarious. :cool:

Well, the people being the source of an impact, an impact they deny, does not inherently make them racist. And, of course, the impact itself cannot be racist... so we're left in the same place we started - you without any evidence regarding your charges of racism.

You're playing the race card. Normally, I think you'd be against such but I guess as long as liberal policies are the target then you don't have a problem with it. I'm guessing you do have a problem with calling republicans racist based on economic policy.

You're being like Al Sharpton, claims of racism without evidence of motive.

So, do you support calling republicans racist based upon economic policy impacts that republicans claim are not true? Like, for example, welfare reform. While republicans claim this is good, democrats will claim it disproportionately affects blacks in a negative manner. Are republicans thereby racist?

One can't really support it when one party makes such a claim and not the other.


Lastly, and specifically regarding your claim, I would question a change in competition without a change in available jobs or the workforce itself. Pay is not really relevant. A change in competition requires a material change in the market.

None of it surprises me. The full-on right wing hacks are behaving exactly as I knew they would.

I think it's great that South Carolina GOP voters elected a black man. It's great that GOP voters elected a black woman also. That truly is progress. Sure, there are idiots that are using this to attack Dems, but you have to consider the source.

black men have been elected to republican seats before this ..it is no surprise, however since were is a republican war on women, minorities, the working poor, those receiving handouts, electing a woman to the Congress from the republican party is not supposed to happen.... by those war standards

I know old habits are hard to break, but the GOP won, you don't have to play the victim now.

i dont care if the GOP won.....WHO CARES, ITS NOT GOING TO CHANGE THINGS....two more years of ineffective government.

as stated.........a woman elected by the GOP was not supposed to happen since the GOP is supposed to be at war with everyone.

so your victim statement you wish to fall back on as a defense mechanism.....fails.

I think this is positive, not sure why the NAACP is upset.

The full-on Liberal hacks are pissy because the Left got it's ass spanked and Obama's agenda has been rejected.

the democrats want to convince america that the other party is full of rich, mean, evil, greedy people who hate everyone not like them, which is why they have created this false republican war on everyone theme they have been pushing for years.
 
Re: Tim Scott wins US Senate race and is 1st black to win statewide in SC since Recon

Anybody catch how young some of the republican winners are??!! Minorities, women and other cool types. This is an enormous opportunity to beat Hillary so we must not blow it. We have two years and they must be good ones or this great awakening will put everyone back to sleep.

Who said the GOP wouldn't elect women? It wasn't that long ago when a pair of breasts were all the qualification needed to be the Vice Presidential candidate.

Good luck with that persecution complex.

You know I am referring to Palin. That gimmick was to attract disaffected Clinton supporters.

:lol:........because woman are not supposed to be elected by republicans because there is a war on woman , and minorities as stated by democrats.......

Many women have been elected by the GOP.

May I suggest you use a torch to slay the strawman?

sorry but you seem to have lost track here.......this is about a black woman being elected.

its time the democrats put away their WAR declarations........which have been proven to be false.
 
Re: Tim Scott wins US Senate race and is 1st black to win statewide in SC since Recon

Wa...wa...wait a minute! Everybody in the South is a ****ing racist! This just can't be!

Yeah, because we all know that the Republicans are the party of exclusively old white men. Oh wait.

Republicans supported Tim Scott, and the youngest woman, and more women who have achieved elected office as Republicans.

Looks like the Democrats / Liberals / Progressives straw man arguments have permanently and finally fallen before the reality of the situation.

Not to worry though. They'll come up with some other equally untrue thing to endlessly repeat and make themselves look better than they deserve.

I'll put Palin's boobs up against Geraldine Ferraro's boobs any day. Wait, I don't think that sounded right....
