Black Conservatives Are TOUGH!

They've been called Oreos, traitors and Uncle Toms, and are used to having to defend their values. Now black conservatives are really taking heat for their involvement in the mostly white tea party movement—and for having the audacity to oppose the policies of the nation's first black president.

These guys are great. The NAACP is giving conservative Blacks "caution" about the "company that you keep"!

LOL!

Yup. Cause everybody knows if you disagree with any Obama policy it can only be because you are prejudice.

Re: Black Conservatives Are TOUGH!

Glad I looked through the list of new posts, I almost started a thread on this very thing.

Disgusting.

Some quotes:

Quote:

"I've been told I hate myself. I've been called an Uncle Tom. I've been told I'm a spook at the door," said Timothy F. Johnson, chairman of the Frederick Douglass Foundation, a group of black conservatives who support free market principles and limited government.

Quote:

"I've gotten the statement, 'How can you not support the brother?'" said David Webb, an organizer of New York City's Tea Party 365, Inc. movement and a conservative radio personality.

Quote:

Racist protest signs at some tea party rallies and recent reports by U.S. Reps. John Lewis, D-Ga., and Barney Frank, D-Mass., that tea partyers shouted racial and anti-gay slurs at them have raised allegations of racism in the tea party movement.

Black members of the movement say it is not inherently racist, and some question the reported slurs. "You would think—something that offensive—you would think someone got video of it," Bazar, the conservative blogger, said.

"Just because you have one nut case, it doesn't automatically equate that you've got an organization that espouses (racism) as a sane belief," Johnson said.

(quotes are from article sourced above)

So much for the Tea Party being racist. Of course you wouldn't see this on any network news or CNN, MSNBC, etc.

Right NDavid, Surprisingly, this is an associated press article. that tells me the problem is real and undeniable. Most of the AP is in the far left/Obama/Democratic party bag with CNN and MSNBC.
