The GOP has done so much for blacks. Clearly they just do not understand.

You must be new here. If you disagree with someone's post, the idea is to make your best counter-argument, and cite your source of information if it helps and you can fit it under the 750-character limit. One-liners are good too sometimes if they’re funny, hopefully making a point in the process.


Just saying “Only you and a deluded few can manage swallowing that pill” isn’t funny in any kind of clever or humorous sense, it’s not an argument, and it contributes nothing to the discussion — it sounds more like a disgruntled person thinking out loud.

Try to compose your thoughts and anticipate likely counterarguments, then take your best shot.

You really don't get it, do you?

I could hardly "practice" it more — many of my posts are multiple in length, because the 750-character limit is not enough room to quote someone else and then present a coherent counter-argument.

But do what you like, it's your credibility at stake.

While you're at it, go ahead and reply to the post below that you dodged earlier, if you think you have an answer.

Record unemployment
Record out-of-wedlock births
Record numbers of dead-beat dads
Record crime rates
Record school drop-out rates
Record drug and alcohol abuse
Record welfare enrollment

How many millions of black babies have been killed by the Democrats’ ‘abortion on demand’?

And now the Democrats want blacks to swallow man-on-man marriage.


The GOP could never match what the DNC has done for blacks.




Perhaps history will show that the first black president’s biggest contribution to black America was forcing this community to come to terms with its own identity and priorities.

By formalizing his support of same sex marriage, President Obama has pushed blacks to decide what is most important to them. The Biblical message they hear in church every Sunday, or the big government liberalism that they regularly vote for on Tuesday of Election Day.

I’ve often talked about what I call the “Sunday-Tuesday Gap’ in black America.

The black church has always played a central role in black American life. Blacks...
