McCain backer takes on Howard Dean over 'white' re

CNN Political Ticker: All politics, all the time Blog Archive - McCain backer takes on Howard Dean over ‘white’ remark « - Blogs from CNN.com

(CNN) – Carly Fiorina, a supporter of Sen. John McCain and the chair of the Republican National Committee’s Victory 2008 campaign, took aim at Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean over racially-tinged comments Dean made Friday.
“If you look at folks of color, even women, they’re more successful in the Democratic Party than they are in the white, uh, excuse me, in the Republican Party,” Dean said Friday in an appearance on NPR’s “Tell Me More” program.

Thats pretty strong considering the Democrats have a kluxer in the Senate.

Certainly though blacks are leading the charge in the Democrat party , It is evident that race is playing a part in these elections at least on the Democrat side.

What John Dean is trying to infer is that if you dont vote for Obama you are a racist. Its the same old card played a different way. President Bush has a black Sec. of State , he had Colin Powell for a while, he nominated Clarance Thomas for Supreme Court, I think President Bush has a pretty good record for having blacks in his administration, Now the Dems offer us Obama, a wet behind the ears Local Chicago politician, who doesnt know Sheit from Shinola and expects the American public to vote for him simply because he is black and gives good speech. I aint buying it.

Actually the first Bush nominated Clarence Thomas. There is no way a black man wouldn't have been nominated for that one though, it was to replace a black man.

Dean's remark is uncalled for, period.

If you want a practical view of the way Democrats really feel, just read the comments section. Great demonstration of how socialists don't want an equal playing field, but want equal outcomes.
