Jimmy Carter: Wilson comments 'based on racism'

BWHAHAHAHAHA

Now he's citing Confederate constitutional law.

I guess the blacks at the time should have been happy, huh?

You don't get to go free, but we're forbidding the importation of slaves.

We're only allowed to breed you.

Thats real "progress."

Thats "change" every southerner can believe in!

:rofl


By that logic the US constitution allows the same.

The US constitution at the time did not cover it very well.


I had a feeling you were going to miss the point. Sorry about that.

Black americans are the most racist group we have in america today, this is not even debatable.....

Another one. :sigh: Do you have any proof of this assertion or are you just making this stuff up?
 
I haven't made up my mind, yet, about what real effect all this Leftist screaching about racism at every turn will have on minorities in this country.

I keep hoping that all this race baiting could make racism accusations totally irrelevant, which would be a great thing for minorities in this country. It will force them to stop using things like this as a crutch. However, it could very possibly make minorities, themselves, irrelevant in the public eye. Which would be terrible for the next great leader of our nation, who just happens to be a minority. I would love to see Condoleeza Rice run for president, but there's no way she could get elected after all this BS.

It's a shame that Libbos don't even comprehend the damage they're doing to minorities in this county, especially blacks.

Wow, another one who thinks their uninformed opinions are self evident truths. I'd love to hear you support this one.

Evidence? Link? Something to back that up?

Racism does still exist in this country, even if it has been pushed mostly to the fringe. Valid racism accusations should be taken seriously.

Some minorities, Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson come to mind, use racism as a crutch and for personal gain, but not all minorities do. We've been bashing rabid left wingers for making sweeping generalizations, its no better when right wing partisans do so.

I'll agree that false accusations of racism harm minorities, but I think it also harms all of us as it poisons efforts to improve race relations on both sides.

How, by having no direct evidence for the thing he is claiming ?

Yer just a cheerleader fanboy.

Oh no, the fact that he went and got himself thread banned and temp suspended for blatantly lying and baiting that makes lil' devil so star struck. :lol:

Yes, it does and it always will and it's not just white on everyone else racism. Seriouslly, could any given white politician get away with crying racism when blacks, or hispanic post criticism? Was it racism when blacks criticized Bush? I bet that in some part, it was because Bush was white. Anyone that thinks otherwise leads a far too sheltered life.

No, not all, but the so called leaders of the black community have convinced most blacks that they should sit back and wait for the payoff.

The claims of racism, since PBO got elected aren't helping minorities. It's doing years of irreversable damage to minorities. When you have a country that is 80% white and you tell them they can't excercise their right to protest, because they'll be intimidated by racist accusations, all you're going to do is insure that all those white folks will never, ever vote for a black candidate, ever again.

I don't recall any posts saying Wilson absolutely not a racist. The point has been there has been absolutely no proof that he is. The "evidence" offered up by some has been flimsy at best and has been exposed as being such.

Apparently, you either have to prove that he's not a racist or admit that he is one. :roll:

Well, so far, the only evidence that Wilson is a racist, is him calling a black president a liar, which turned out to be the truth.

I'm referring to many posts saying that Wilson's outburst "was not racially motivated." If you go back through the threads regarding Wilson you will find them. (I even asked someone if he could read minds in one)
This thread alone is almost 70 pages so there are probably examples right here.

Thanks akyron, you made my day with that laugh riot

Anyways, got to go now.

:2wave:

I can take no credit for it. Imagination is a wonderous thing.

And you can't quote one ?

Evidence regarding the outburst, DOES NOT EXIST, just unrelated smear attempts.
 
Carter is an honorable gentleman...A far more intelligent and thoughtful man than most posters here, including me.
Those who think racism is over in America are just whistling Dixie. A hundred, maybe two hundreds years from now - maybe....
Joe Wilson is typical, I doubt if he is man enough to admit to his racial bias and bigotry, even in private...
In my lifetime, we have made progress, but we still have a long ways to go..

Jimmy Carter is anti-semitic nazi war criminal supporting scumbag.
 
President Carter got it right
the reich wing is ginning up anti-Obama support using racist undertones
the bowel movement of the teabaggers has little to do with opposition to health care reform and much to do with opposition to Obama
but when the teabaggers are questioned about specific objections, they come up empty
yep, Jimmy pegged it
it's so obvious, Stevie Wonder could see it

The same Jimmy Carter who intercedes on behalf of nazi war criminals?
 
It's possible the Wilson harbors some racial resentments.

I was recently in S Carolina. A man in a Krispie Kreme was very open with me about his disgust with Obama, and he made some pretty openly racist comments to me, a stranger. I tried shush him because I noticed some Blacks working there, but he didn't care.

I do think there is more overt racism in the South. That conversation would not have occured where I live.

Jimmy Carter is from Georgia which still uses the confederate flag and he, also, supports amnesty for nazi war criminals.
 
We can only give it an educated guess. For one thing, he's from S Carolina

And Carters from Georgia, he's virulently anti-Israel, pro-Hamas, and supports amnesty for Nazi war criminals. So making an educated guess I would say that Carter hates Jews.

I honestly dont believe Jimmy Carter gives a crap either way. This just happens to be a sensitive issue he can tie to current events so as to thrust himself into the limelight again.
 
Here on planet Earth when the KKK use the Confederate flag as symbol of their movement that should tell you all you need to know

I'm sure the stars and stripes is offensive and represents something completely different to the Native Americans :roll:

I guess the liberals don't want to discuss Carter and his demential blubbering to remain relevant in our society. They don't want to address the credibility of a communist lover. They'd rather change the subject and talk about rebel flags and such. Everybody knows Wilson called him a liar because he is.
 
We can only give it an educated guess. For one thing, he's from S Carolina so probably grew up in an era where open racism and segregation were every day realities. Also, looking at his face, my intuition tells me that he has a nasty streak. Then there's the fact that his emotions boiled over to the point where he had a disrespectful outburst on National TV.

I lived in S Carolina once for 3 years back in 1978-1981. It was almost totally segregated in N Myrtle Beach at the time. My husband worked on a road crew and for a sign/billboard company. He told me that, at that time, in the absence of Black people that the word 'Nigger' was used in every day speech. That's the 'N' word in case the auto-censor bleeps it out.


I will thank you kindly not to mischaracterize my state. Your experiences in one limited era, among a limited group of people, over the course of three years only, do not constitute sufficient evidence to postulate SouthCarolinian = Racist.

I've known people from the New England states who were virulently racist. So what?

I grew up in the 60's and 70's in SC. Granted the "seperate but equal" mentality was still prevalent then. In the 80's and 90's things changed dramatically and the modern, typical SC'linian is no more racist than someone from NH, NJ or Illinois.

I am so sick of the modern South being tarred with the brush of racism... look to your own state, you'll undoubtably find some racists and KKK members there. The views of small extreme minority do not characterize a whole state.
 
Why don't we try an experment.

I'll fly you to Detroit, Michigan. I'll pay you $20 dollars an hour for five days in a row to proudly wave the confederate flag.

We'll see how long you last.






This is probably the most racist post in this thread.



Good job suggesting black people are savages and would do violence over a flag1 :thumbs:
