Demorats: Ideology Trumps Race

Demorats have proven, time and time again, that ideology clearly trumps race, though they frequently play the "race card" when it promotes their ideology.

Past examples would include just about any "minority" appointment or cabinet member employed by the former Bush Administration -- which, by the way, selected a greater number of so-called "minorities" than had the Clinton Administration.

Proving that, on many occasions, you simply can't be "black enough" for a Liberal Racist, or sufficiently left for the Left.

Recent case in point:

The Rev. Jesse Jackson on Wednesday night criticized Rep. Artur Davis (D-Ala.) for voting against the Democrats’ signature healthcare bill.

“We even have blacks voting against the healthcare bill,” Jackson said at a reception Wednesday night. “You can’t vote against healthcare and call yourself a black man.”

You might want to refamiliarize yourself with the photograph capping this blogpost. I could be wrong, but Representative Artur Davis appears, to me, to be a black man.

With that in mind, in consideration of Mr Jackson's comment, isn't this a tad bit like the pot calling the kettle black?

Again, in keeping with this current administration's tactics, any disagreement with policy or planning absolutely requires degrading personal attacks on those individuals or groups holding to said disagreement. Rep. Davis merely disagrees with Mr Obama's healthcare bill.

Now, given that Mr Jackson is a black man, and that Mr Jackson is a racist and bigot, are you then surprised that he is excoriating a melanin-matching individual incongruent with his Leftist leanings?

I, myself, am not.

Racists, hypocrites all.

P.S.

On the other hand, Representative Jon Conyers (D, Michigan) is recently quoted as saying that our Mr Obama is being quite too amenable and "bowing down" to the GOP, and that Conyers is "getting tired of saving Obama's can in the White House."
