Linkology
April 11, 2005
In that case Michael, you are too easily insulted. If you read the whole thread I linked to, read my comments, La Shawn Barber's comments, Michael King's comments, Baldilocks' comments, and lastly, Molotov's comments, you'd get the context of joke. And as I always tell people, set emotion aside and read my words carefully please. I didn't suggest that the GOP is for white people. I suggested that it is white people. Can anyone argue its majority? There's an enormous difference in those two statements. And in between the two statements, lies the Conservative Brotherhood--a bridge. Thank you for helping me further prove my point. Hi Ambra. I think this is my first time posting here even though I've been reading your blog for a few months now. I really enjoy your writing. Here is a place to look for airfare and hotel deals to Montego Bay: http://dir.travelzoo.com/Vacations.asp?intCategory=54 If that link doesn't work, type www.travelzoo.com. Good luck finding something you can use. Ambra Nykol, she's "Black Brotherhood" and she's proud. I understood the sarcasm. I just didn't think it was funny. Well humor is of course subjective...Any sensitivity around the joke only shows me the areas of opportunity found in the Republican Party. linking RNC as a white conservative brotherhood. CLASSIC!!! Oh, this is TOO DARN FUNNY!!!! 'nuff said. Oliver Willis needs to take a new blog-pic. Back in the old days of the 'net, everyone agreed on updating their website every year with a new design (maybe so web designers could keep their jobs?). Anyone else wonder why you need to talk to someone to let them know you're no longer talking to them? I don't see why people are so easily offended. Those who offended you aren't offended. I like LaShawn's blog, even though she oft links to a [i]man[/i] who calls himself "The Bible Answer Man". Ehhh. I still only visit 3 blogs regularly. I'm not a true blog-fan. Well, I can't find any right-wingers that don't suck. Mr. Willis must not use the same eyes I do. I find good people all over; they sometimes have different worldviews than mine. I'm not so sure about your characterization of the one party. You could say the same thing about straight, rich, evangelical, as well--but there are gays, po'folks, and atheists all doing their part in that party as well. Heck, there are even independent minded folks outside the RNC who disagree with some of their platform but still have commonalities...like, say, me! Oliver: That can probably be attributed to your synical perspective on life. Unfortunate. "I'm not so sure about your characterization of the one party. You could say the same thing about straight, rich, evangelical, as well--but there are gays, po'folks, and atheists all doing their part in that party as well." If the Republican party isn't inordinately fully of white people, then you can slap me and call me June Bob. I don't think that is a debatable fact. Of course there are exceptions. Are things changing? yes. Neither of which negate my point about the emergence of something like a conservative brotherhood. Well....A bit of a storm raised over this one? Dr. Galster, I'll give you that point hand down. You are cute when you are mad. The Constitution Party is definitely White, and you do need that capital 'W'! Basically all the Southern Democrats who became Republicans when they began to favor states' rights in the 60s began to feel unwelcome in the party that welcomed Clarence Thomas, Colin Powell, Condi Rice, and J.C. Watts, and they took their nationalist American elitism (of the White variety in most cases) to the Constitution Party. It's not conservative, either. Its extremism is so contrary to most decent conservative principles that I just can't understand why any self-respecting conservative will even give them the time of day. It's as if you took all the conservative principles to the caricature of them that liberals like to pretend conservatism is all about and then you actually defended that picture. I think that Jeremy is a little hard on the Constitution Party, but not much. Reminder, the Republican Party did not take over the south until the 1990's. DarkStar's propaganda not withstanding. DarkStar's "propaganda" is well supported with facts. If you can't deal with that, then that's your problem not mine. When white and Black Republicans say that Republicans are to blame, take responsibility for it and deal with the situation. okay, enough blaming please. Aw man, you missed your chance! { Comments are now closed for this entry. } |

Pfft. Although I enjoy most of your writings, tossing in a barb that gop.com is for white people is insulting. I would think Senator Byrd of the KKK/DNC would be a better example of a white brotherhood.
