It does depict how Conservatives love to see themselves. Conservatives love to love subservient blacks. Mr.T bought into Nancy Reagan’s “Just Say No” program. Mr. T was willing to forget that her husband began his campaign in Philadelphia, Mississippi and talked about nonexistent welfare queens.The relationship between Nancy and T was not one of equals, it was a master-slave relationship. Mr. T proudly displays his chains.</p> <p>Reality check on Nancy’s husband. 56% of blacks polled in 1986 thought that Ronald Reagan was a racist.</p> <p><a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1986/01/18/reagan-rating-falls-in-poll-of-blacks/b452138c-46ba-4353-b6d7-eb895d650bdc/?utm_term=.db1e30303ec2">https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1986/01/18/reagan-rating-falls-in-poll-of-blacks/b452138c-46ba-4353-b6d7-eb895d650bdc/?utm_term=.db1e30303ec2</a></p> <p>Moving on to wingnut Brad Thor. Here are comments he made about Eric Holder.</p> <blockquote> <p>"Mr. Holder, the one true racist in this dialogue is <em>you</em>," Thor remarked. "You see everything through the prism of race. You are the racist. You are using racism to cover up the inadequacy of the performance of the president of the United States, and the absolute dereliction of duty in your office. <em>You</em>, sir, are the racist."</p> <p>Thor said there is a "war on truth" in this country, and "it's coming from the left."</p> <p>"We have had such success in this country, as far as getting away from racism," Thor remarked. "There is no more institutionalized racism in the United States. We have a black president -- that was a historic, very proud moment for this country. And for Eric Holder and his ilk -- they want to use racism as a shield and a sword. So the people who are <em>preventing</em> a real dialogue about race in this country are people like Eric Holder."</p> <p>Thor said Holder's comments were "not really about racism," but rather, the "failure of leftist ideology" and "the failures of the Department of Justice, starting with Fast and Furious going all the way through the IRS scandal."</p> <p>Thor said he hopes change is coming, because the black community has been let down "time and time again by people like Barack Obama, by the Democrat Party."</p> </blockquote> <p><a href="https://www.theblaze.com/news/2014/07/14/brad-thor-explodes-on-racist-eric-holder-over-attorney-generals-controversial-remarks">https://www.theblaze.com/news/2014/07/14/brad-thor-explodes-on-racist-eric-holder-over-attorney-generals-controversial-remarks</a></p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> </div></div></div> Sun, 23 Dec 2018 03:25:17 +0000 rmrd0000 comment 263006 at http://dagblog.com Mr. T will bring us together. http://dagblog.com/comment/262910#comment-262910 <a id="comment-262910"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/comment/262901#comment-262901">Just ran across a much much</a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>Mr. T will bring us together.</p> </div></div></div> Fri, 21 Dec 2018 13:47:11 +0000 Michael Maiello comment 262910 at http://dagblog.com Just ran across a much much http://dagblog.com/comment/262901#comment-262901 <a id="comment-262901"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/reader-blogs/partisanship-problem-27043">One problem with partisanship</a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>Just ran across a much much lighter approach to the meme by a best-selling author of spy novels, who is also a funny guy: His pinned tweet:</p> <p> </p><div class="media_embed"> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en" height="" width=""> <p dir="ltr" lang="en" xml:lang="en">America is a wonderful country where people can get along.
