Programs like Affirmitive Action which only pander to minorities instead of making people actually WORK for something.

OR Welfare states which only cause a something for nothing attitude in the populace who use the system?

Why is it if a black person is running for office in the GOP they are considered Uncle Toms by dems but a black man who is a dem is considered the next Dr King?

Why is ex-KKK Grand Kleagle Harry Reid STILL in Senate???

--these are good pointed questions which, by all accounts, only the NAACP are legally allowed to answer. Why is it that more Democrats are wealthier than Republicans? Why is the left trying to kill our God through political correctness and narrowed philosophical parameters? Is Hillary Clinton able to hide her horns just because she is a female of that demonic species? All these questions will be answered on the next NOVA!

In the first place Dems aren't all racist. In the 2nd place not just minorities "MiLK" the system. When was the last time you stepped into a welfare or social services office? Nearly 50 % are White, recently divorced women with young children who were fatherd by so called men who ignore their responsibilities. Oh, and by the way, in order to collect benefits, you must register for work if you have no children under school age. Nothing is assumed "FREE".
Using the system... Hmmm. Your words... I suspect you mean people who abuse the system? That's an entirely different arena. It would seem to me that you are the one who is narrow minded. Maybe it's time you look into the mirror. No matter the color of your skin. I pray you never have to "USE" the system. Just remember that Karma is a wonderful teacher.....

WOW! You obviously know nothing, and assume much. My parents collected food stamps for 9 months to help make ends meet while they were in college, and working with 3 kids. All 3 of us kids, as well as my parents are college educated and working, paid back WAY more than we ever took. And that is the case with MOST welfare recipients. It helps them. Second, it is a FACT that Affirmative Action benefits white women the most, a decided MAJORITY of the population. States vote for their senators, so I have no vote in Harry Reid's case. And the blacks running for president thing...we are talking about specific blacks here, since only a couple have run. A huge misinformed generalization by you. So now, what's the question?

Sorry, but you are seriously misinformed! Once you become knowledgeable that all Democrats aren't Liberals, not religious, and racists, you will continue to be part of the problem.
If Barack Obama or Gen. Colin Powell ran in the next election, I'd support them.
As for Harry Reid still unfortunately being in the Senate, hobbies aren't taken into account as requirements for the job.

There is a marked double standard. No one can deny it. Condi and Colin Powell-despite their education and the fact that they worked their way up using their brains rather than affirmative action mean nothing to the Democrats simply because the don't tow the Democrat's party line-Blacks are victims to by pitied. By contrast, Barrack Obama is a Democrat Hero, as is that crazy Cynthia McKinney. The two of them have achieved much the same way Condi and Colin did-hard work, educating themselves...they are heroes. Condi and Colin (both southerners, I might add-they grew up in the middle of the racist south that the black community screams about) are Uncle Toms.

Something is rotten in Denmark.

Well, i live in a 'Welfare State' ie the UK, and im proud to be called a Liberal. Liberalism is an ideology opposed to all forms of racism, at least it is here in England.
Our 'Welfare State' actually has very tough regulations. For a start, to gain somethign liek disability allowance, you must prove you are disabled, ie, 3 Doctors need to sign aform. Anyone who lives off welfare is gradually sifted off, and if they take no efort to find a job, they are thrown out of the system. Our social services are actually incredibly tough but our Right-Wing media loves to stir up problems.

Liberals just aren't as understanding, fair minded, or compassionate as Republicans.

President Bush once referred to the "soft bigotry of low expectations". Unlike liberals, Bush does not think people in the Middle East can't handle democracy just because they have brown skin.

Bush doesn't pander to the misconception that people with black skin can only survive through handouts and special programs. Bush does not engage in the soft bigotry of low expectations. He doesn't cloyingly try to enslave them in thinly-veiled programs of perpetual subservience such as welfare.

Check out President Bush's cabinet: it is full of minorities. Bush doesn't just talk the talk. He walks the walk.

Unlike the limosine liberals, he's not a hypocrite.

People on all sides of political/racial/social lines harbor the same kind of prejudice that caused you to post a question pigeon-holing all liberals and democrats into the same school of thought. I am conservative/Republican, but such a blatant generalization couldn't go unchecked.

The so called party of tolerance has become the most intolerant group in the country.

I think you are assuming much.... Not all Republicans or Democrats are hateful and/or racist.
