Democrat Slavery Alive and Well...

[Mr Natural]

Isn't giving people money for doing nothing the exact opposite of slavery?

No.

You can render any man a slave simply by giving him money.

And you cheapen the whole concept of slavery and what real slaves went through by saying shit like that.

The definition has latitude. I sujest you look the word up instead of relying on your singular understanding.

There are 2.9 million slaves in China yet Obama gleefully kisses their butt to increase the U.S. national debt..


30 million people are slaves, half in India

 

[Political Junky]

Odd that it's those on the Right, like Clarence Thomas and Haley Barbour saying that Jim Crow wasn't so bad. Guess they'd say the same about slavery.

If you take care of people to the point where they no longer have the desire or ability to care for themselves and they must keep voting for you to stay subsidized, who is the master?

Yah right, at least they didn't create the Jim Crow laws.. the DEMOCRATS DID...

During the Reconstruction period of 1865–1877, federal law provided civil rights protection in the U.S. South for freedmen – the African Americans who had formerly been slaves. In the 1870s, Democrats gradually regained power in the Southern legislatures, sometimes as a result of elections in which paramilitary groups intimidated opponents, attacking blacks or preventing them from voting. Gubernatorial elections were close and disputed in Louisiana for years, with extreme violence unleashed during the campaigns. In 1877, a national compromise to gain Southern support in the presidential election resulted in the last of the federal troops being withdrawn from the South. White Democrats had regained political power in every Southern state.[4] These conservative, white, Democratic Redeemer governments legislated Jim Crow laws, segregating black people from the white population.

The majority of means tested entitlement benefits go to white people. Is that really such complicated mathematics that the average rightwing inmate at USMB can't comprehend it?

But you hate white people, or more correctly, your party does. So, why haven't you pulled the funding? Perhaps it's helping the wrong race?

OUCH! That's gonna leave a mark...but NY Carbonated will IGNORE YOU TK...

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY OF TODAY WAS THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY THEN.

Don't look at party name. Look at locations. Southern red Conservative Confederate slave states were Democratic until the early 1970s. Search "southern strategy" and shut the fuck up.

Republicans today would not have ended slavery.

Has NOTHING to do with location ya dweeb. Try ATTITUDE. The Democrats of yesterday have inched toward Communusm, Totalitarianism...where they left a vacuum...as nature plays things out Nature abhors a vacuum...thus...the Repubicans move into the void...and act as Democrats of old.

And thus BOTH parties LOATH the TEA Party (meaning the People)...and BOTH are Hellbent on pursuing the NEW Slavery over ALL of us.

YOU need to leave politics son... YOU are sorely mal informed, and just plain STUPID.

I think it is YOU digging your hole sport. Lumpy is correct. YOU refuse to accept FACT.

 

[TemplarKormac]

When was the last time a welfare recipient was flogged for stepping out of line?

You people really need to rethink your definition of slavery.

You don't flog them. You call them racist. A verbal flogging if you will.

The Tea Party does not represent The People. The Teabagger party is the racist right-wing psychotic fringe of the Republican party, made up of religious zealots who stubbornly cling to beliefs based on factual distortion, misinformation and outright lies. You were unleashed on the world by Karl Rove and the Republican establishment to stifle every move made by a black President but your stupidity is endless and your stubbornness knows no bounds. You are the least informed demographic in American society. Teabaggers are in fact so stupid that it cannot be explained to them just how wrong they are about everything.

Tell us all how Reagan would fix everything, you fucking muppet. Reagan was a senile war criminal who supported terrorists and genocide.

Just because some slaves go through worse shit than other slaves, doesn't mean that anyone who is subjugated to the will of anyone else isn't a slave.

It doesn't require floggings, rape, mutilation, or murder as a direct consequence of disobedience for slavery to qualify as slavery, no matter how emotionally you feel about any particular historical slave story. Your raw emotions don't get to dictate English definitions, kiddo

You're a little mixed up here, guy. The tea party, at its core, is simply about controlled government size and spending. There are members of the tea party that are religious zealots, but from what I've seen of self-described tea partiers that I've met personally, religious and Christian values aren't really tea party foundation planks. Simply controlled government, controlled spending.

As far as the tea party being a racist fringe, this shit needs to stop. As someone who neither identifies as a tea partier or a republican, I can't help but notice that the vast majority of these blanket accusations of racism from the left (which is kind of funny because racism is attributing an aspect to everyone of a demographic without acknowledging individual differences, and the left loves to say that an entire demographic, i.e. the tea party, shares that particular aspect, i.e. racism, with no regard for individual differences. Hypocrisy on an epic, poetic scale) are either unsubstantiated (as in your case) or completely overblown. It's an obvious smoke-screen: Call your political opponents racist whack jobs and you can pretend that it's logically justifiable to assume that everything they say is automatically drivel. Then you don't have to defeat the merits of their argument or prove those of your own. Intellectual cowardice.

Last thing, Chief. . . Really? Karl Rove?

Karl Rove is not only one of the biggest names on the republican establishment list, but he's exactly the kind of big government right winger that infuriates tea partiers and libertarians alike. He's also one of the biggest critics of the tea party in the republican party.

I think basically what you did here is take a couple of the most popular hyperbolic stereotypes that lefties throw at Republicans in general, threw in the name of an influential Republican that Democrats in the media really sink their teeth into demonizing, and haphazardly strung them out following the words, "The teabagger party is". You didn't write a political or philosophical argument so much as a full paragraph insult. ANd not a witty one. Just an unpleasant one.
