"Liberals go straight to ugly racist stereotypes when attacking conservative blacks, calling them oversexualized, stupid and/or incompetent.
The late, lamented, white liberal reporter Mary McGrory called Justice Antonin Scalia "a brilliant and compelling extremist" -- while dismissing Thomas as "Scalia's puppet."
More recently, Democratic Sen. Harry Reid called Scalia "one smart guy." In the next breath, he proclaimed Thomas "an embarrassment to the Supreme Court," adding, "I think that his opinions are poorly written."
When Bush made Condoleezza Rice the first black female secretary of state, terror swept through the Democratic Party. What if people began to notice and ask questions: "Who's that black woman always standing with George Bush?" Never mind! He's probably arresting her.
In addition to an explosion of racist cartoons portraying Rice as Aunt Jemima, Butterfly McQueen from "Gone With the Wind," a fat-lipped Bush parrot and other racist cliches, allegedly respectable liberals promptly called her stupid and incompetent.
Joseph Cirincione, then with the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, said Rice "doesn't bring much experience or knowledge of the world to this position." (Unlike Hillary Clinton, whose experience for the job consisted of being married to an impeached, disbarred former president.)
Democratic consultant Bob Beckel -- who ran Walter Mondale's 1984 campaign so competently that Mondale lost 49 states -- said of Rice, "I don't think she's up to the job."
When Michael Steele ran for senator in Maryland in 2006, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee dug up a copy of his credit report -- something done to no other Republican candidate. He was depicted in black face with huge red lips by liberal blogger Steve Gilliard. Oreo cookies were rolled down the aisle at Steele during a gubernatorial debate in 2002.
Trafficking in racist imagery is consequence-free for liberals because they have ruined charges of "racism" with their own overuse of the term. By now, any accusation of racism has the feel of a Big Foot sighting."

Not one of the people you mentioned commenting on Conservative Blacks is on the "Left" in anyway shape or form. Please apologize to us lefties immediately because we can't take this sort of abuse.

^Yup, this is pretty silly stuff. The John Birch Society interviews ex-KGB talking about Walter Mondale (Uber Stalinist that he is) trying to demoralize the American citizenry by persuading them to overeat? Um, what?

*wtf *conspiracy

Anyone remember Walter Mondale's last ditch effort to get elected, when he aired commercials saying, "No Nukes in Space. Draw the line at the heavens"? It was hilarious, lost in a landslide.

Obama campaign manager David Plouffe compared the ad to a 1984 Walter Mondale commercial showing a red hotline phone in the White House that was intended to portray his opponent Gary Hart as soft on defense.

This song was on the charts during the 1984 presidential campaign. Around that time there was a political cartoon of Democratic presidential candidate Walter Mondale, "Puttin' on the Fritz." I tried to find it on the web, but no luck so far.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Good questions. As we are still a pretty new community, I think it's a matter of forming a consensus, and then putting it in the FAQs.


For the first one, I always vote for my own videos and I can't imagine a reason why you would submit a video and then not want to vote for it. It's been suggested that we add an "autovote" on submit, and I think that's what we'll do. soon.

On the second one - I agree, that I like to know why people are down-voting, but I don't think we should compel people to justify their negative vote. As you say SFJocko, it's very subjective, but as the community expands (and it's really expanding), 1 or 2 negative votes will matter less and less over time among a flood of positive votes.

If you are really irked about some negative votes, I think you have the right to call it out in the comments. I don't think it's bad etiquette to request an explanation for a down vote.

You know if this is a democratic community - and I like to think it is - the executive and judicial offices are particularly weak. We're strong in the legislature, but think of the biggest pussy of a vice-president and president that ever was - and that's James and I.

James would be Walter Mondale, and I'd be like Dukakis, if he had ever become president. My point is ... uhm, yeah - my point is, it's great that we can all make this up as we go along. A lot of the changes that have been made to date have been because of the member (congressional) ideas. Maybe I'm stretching this metaphor a bit. Maybe I should go to bed.


So, don't expect us to send troops into Fark, though God knows they could use some regime change.
