Radio Host on Tim Scott:
´Black Only in Skin Color´

Breitbart´s Big Journalism, by Warner Todd Huston

Original Article

Posted By:KarenJ1, 12/17/2012 4:25:02 PM

Tim Scott has been appointed to fill the South Carolina Senate seat being vacated by the retiring Jim DeMint and immediately the racebaiters jumped in with both feet to attack him. One of the early hatemongers was Amos Brown, a host on a religious radio station in Indianapolis, Indiana. Brown used his Twitter account to claim that African American Tim Scott isn´t really a black man. Tim Scott is, of course, a Republican just like Governor Haley who will appoint him to the vacant seat.

Comments:
Those Democrats who are lamenting about all the hate and cruelty in this country should look in the mirror. They constantly spew hate and vitriol for what purpose?? Their vile behavior certainly does no good for the betterment of our society. Sadly, with the appointment of Tim Scott you knew exactly what would be coming from them.

There is no racist like a black racist. That is all they think about. Race.
Shame.

It´s insiduous that liberal blacks use the "Uncle Tom" label on conservative blacks, denying them their legitimacy as true blacks who are a credit to their race. Remember that ESPN jerk that said that RG III wasn´t black enough?

The liberal negroes can´t stand any blacks getting out of the plantation and making it on their own. This is one of the reasons why the black unemployment numbers are so high, and that is because the liberal hierarchy wants to keep them barefooted and stupid in the plantation so that they can get their votes.

Obviously, Mr. Brown doesn´t believe that God gave black men free will.

9 or 10 years ago when I worked in a factory two black workers told me that another black man was not black because he had never had a black woman, only white women. I kept telling them that he was black and they said he wasn´t. I knew they were speaking culturally, but I acted dumb. They kept telling me he was not black. The person we were talking about was obnoxious and did not get along with blacks or whites. Finally I told them, "He is black, we don´t want him. You keep him."

From Politico´s archives:

“As a poor kid growing up in a single-parent household in North Charleston, S.C., I felt like I didn’t have much going for me,” Scott said in a speech at the Republican National Convention this summer. “I did have a mom who believed in tough love, and that love comes at the end of a switch … and [a] small-business owner, who was my mentor, who taught me I could think my way out of poverty.”

Scott’s mentor taught him that “having a job is a good thing, but creating jobs was even better.”


How dare Amos Brown say Scott´s not really a black man! I´ve met Scott and he´s an engaging man with a huge contagious smile combined with a serious demeanor when it comes to creating jobs and supporting our military. And he loves his mom! Always introduces her at every speech and credits her with keeping him out of big trouble.

I suppose Mr. Brown thinks Ms. Scott isn´t black either. From Wikipedia:

Scott was born in Charleston, South Carolina to Ben Scott, Sr. and Frances Scott,[7] a nursing assistant. His parents were divorced when he was 7, and he grew up in poverty under the care of his mother who worked 16-hour days.[4] He has an older brother who is a U.S. Army Sergeant Major in Virginia.[8]

Scott attended Presbyterian College from 1983 to 1984, and graduated from Charleston Southern University in 1988 with a Bachelor of Science in Political Science.

Ms. Scott is a sterling role model for single mothers and his son is a shining example for every young man.

With civil rights in the early 60´s, the Dems saw the writing on the wall. They could no longer be blatantly racist and keep political power. So, they chose a new strategy to gain the black vote while keeping them in poverty without real economic or political power. They did this by pretending that they were primarily responsible for passing civil rights and then began a massive propaganda campaign against the GOP (esp. conservatives like Goldwater and even liberals like Nixon too later on) calling them racists. They tried to claim the so-called "Southern Strategy" was about converting Dixiecrats into Republicans for racial reasons—total lies. They passed lots of legislation (e.g. Great Society, War on Poverty, etc.) designed to appear beneficial to people of color. But in reality, they destroyed the entire fabric of their community down to their nuclear family. To ensure long-term success, the Dems went to every community and chose specific influential people (reverends, community activists, etc.) as well as radical fringe groups (like Black Panthers, Nation of Islam, etc.) to promote & pay them off to betray their people & make them toe the line--persuade them they’re victims of the right, whitey’s evil, Dems are their benefactors, and the GOP is the enemy. They use peer pressure to ensure that nobody strays off the "plantation". Dems throw crumbs every once in a while to keep them believing the lies, but in truth, they’ve virtually destroyed the black community. It has only gotten worse over the last few decades and by fomenting hatred, suspicion and division, the Dems have successfully made new slaves out of people of color again. This is why people like Martin Luther King were assassinated. He would never have allowed this to happen.

One of the first political issues negotiators must tackle in crafting an immigration reform bill is among the most important: what to name it. It’s a decision that will bruise egos, create legacies and deeply affect subsequent messaging battles. “Every time the bill is mentioned in the press, you either have a brand that´s positive or a brand that doesn´t mean anything or even hurts you,” said Frank Sharry, the executive director of the pro-immigration reform group America’s Voice. The wrong name, he warned, could doom a good bill. “If there´s not a

President Obama is eager to build public support for his health care overhaul in the few months remaining before its implementation, but waning enthusiasm from Democrats threatens his effort right out of the gate. Two-thirds of Democrats now believe Obama´s health care reforms will either hurt them personally or have no effect on their daily lives, a Quinnipiac University poll released Thursday shows. In comparison, just 27 percent of Democratic respondents said the reforms would help them. The president has long struggled to convince independent and Republican-leaning voters that his health care blueprint would lower premiums and expand insurance coverage.

Put out an all-points bulletin: Millions of Americans have gone missing from the workforce. Every month that those would-be workers are gone raises the odds that they might never come back, dimming the prospects for future economic growth. The vanishing trend is more than a decade old, but it accelerated during the Great Recession. Throughout 2012, economists held out hope that it had stopped. But then came Friday’s jobs report, and hopes were dashed. The Labor Department reported that the U.S. labor force — everyone who has a job or is looking for one — shrank
