The Democrat's War on Whites

I'm white and I haven't noticed that the Democrats have a war going on against me.

Quote:
Rep. Mo Brooks (R-Ala.) doesn't think that the hardline stance Republicans have taken on immigration could hurt the party’s standing with Hispanic voters. Instead, he thinks Democrats are hurting their prospects with white voters.

“This is a part of the war on whites that’s being launched by the Democratic Party. And the way in which they’re launching this war is by claiming that whites hate everybody else,” he said during an interview Monday with conservative radio host Laura Ingraham. "It's part of the strategy that Barack Obama implemented in 2008, continued in 2012, where he divides us all on race, on sex, greed, envy, class warfare, all those kinds of things. Well that’s not true.”

Brooks was responding to comments made by National Journal's Ron Fournier, who told Fox News host Chris Wallace on Sunday that "the fastest growing voting bloc in this country thinks the Republican Party hates them. This party, your party, cannot be the party of the future beyond November if you’re seen as the party of white people.”

Silly Alabama person. The Republicans have already wedged off all the voters they are going to get with the Republican Race Card, but here it is again. Fournier pointed out that 'Republicans = white people's party is a loser, but Brooks' comments are an explicit embrace of that branding.

Again Obama's fault, somehow Brooks found a way to slip this in his comment.
Surprised that Hamas firing rockets into Israel is not blamed on Obama.

Since before the previous turn of the century the Republican Party has stood on white values.

The acquisition of the expat Dixiecrats pretty much sealed that deal with the dark prince, their influence still pervades the Party.

I'm white and I couldn't care less if the GOP ever wins another election. In fact, I think a few more crushing losses might do them some good..........................

No. They will NEVER see what they are doing wrong, because in their minds they're never wrong.

They're standing on principle.

I don't know why this comes as news to you guys. I don't know about a "war on whites", but the Obama campaign made a strategic decision in the last campaign to essentially ignore appealing to the "white working class".

For decades, Democrats have suffered continuous and increasingly severe losses among white voters. But preparations by Democratic operatives for the 2012 election make it clear for the first time that the party will explicitly abandon the white working class.

All pretense of trying to win a majority of the white working class has been effectively jettisoned in favor of cementing a center-left coalition made up, on the one hand, of voters who have gotten ahead on the basis of educational attainment — professors, artists, designers, editors, human resources managers, lawyers, librarians, social workers, teachers and therapists — and a second, substantial constituency of lower-income voters who are disproportionately African-American and Hispanic.


http://campaignstops.blogs.nytimes.c...ype=blogs&_r=0

The Democrat party has effectively positioned itself as the "party of the aggrieved", and is intent to use the mechanisms of government to bring about whatever social change it sees fit. The constitution is an impediment to this agenda, thus we first get the "nuclear option" employed by Harry Reid in the Senate, followed by a president with a "pen and a phone" who will do whatever he can to spirit the agenda forward.
