I was one of those rare species: a black Republican, the guy willing to spit into the wind of conventional thought, who was often showcased on camera at party events to prove inclusiveness. But as a proud black man, I can no longer be a member of the Republican Party. Being a Republican has long been a part of my personal and professional identities, so leaving the party is a difficult and emotional decision. In 1998, as a young man searching for what I believed were shared values, I cut ties with the Democratic Party and became a Republican. Democrats, in my view, had become unwelcoming to those holding center-right views not in lockstep with the party, and it was my belief that through hard work, the Republican Party could be utilized as a vehicle for improving our community. For the next 13 years, I dedicated myself to growing the conservative base of the Republican Party, and in the process bound myself in emotion and deed. During that time, I worked on behalf of Republican candidates at all levels, from presidential and gubernatorial campaigns, on down to local elections. I have had the pleasure of serving as president of the Sacramento Republican Assembly, a term as a member of the California Republican Party executive committee, and most recently as treasurer of the Sacramento County Republican Party. Last year alone, I donated more than 400 hours of my time to the Republican Party and made financial contributions to a number of Republican candidates. As of late, however, when I look at myself in the mirror there is one question which perplexes me: Can I, in good conscience, remain affiliated with an organization whose message purveyors of racism and bigotry find attractive? Generally speaking, Republicans are decent people, and naturally, many of my closest friends vote Republican. As with any large organization or group, there will always be people at the fringes who hold views that are not representative of the body. An organization cannot control the behavior of each individual actor, but it can control its response to abhorrent conduct. The latest incident in a string of tawdry, race-based actions was the promotion of a racist cartoon by elected Orange County Republican Party Central Committee member Marilyn Davenport. The cartoon depicted President Barack Obama and his parents as chimpanzees, while simultaneously implying that the president is not a legitimate American, but rather an African-born interloper. While the Orange County GOP chairman and a number of other committee members were quick to condemn the image and Davenport, what's disturbing is the incredible number of people who continue to defend Davenport's actions as well as the cartoon itself. Had this been an isolated event, it could be set aside as a mere aberration. However, when placed in the context of similar offenses by the same self-identified tea party-conservative Republicans, there emerges a disturbing pattern of extreme intolerance. Over the past two years, we have seen Republicans use long-held racist imagery in portrayals of Obama. The president has been depicted as a communist witch doctor, a man inclined to plant watermelons on the White House lawn, and we watched in disbelief as his face was placed on an "Obama Buck Food Stamp" along with stereotyped pictures of fried chicken, barbecue ribs, Kool-Aid and the obligatory watermelon. What does any of this have to do with public policy or conservative values? Here is a man who excelled academically at the finest schools in the world, has a wonderful in-tact family, worked hard and rose to become president of the United States. Yet in spite of his accomplishments, the president is still labeled an illegitimate, socialist, African witch doctor and has his face superimposed on a chimpanzee. If this can be done to a black man who is the leader of the free world, how long will it be before fellow Republicans insert my face on a chimpanzee? These behaviors also raise larger issues for African Americans and other minority groups within the GOP. How can I look my parents in the eye and tell them I'm a Republican in spite of these offenses? If he were still living, could my Latino father-in-law be proud that his daughter supports the GOP, in spite of the constant anti-Latino rhetoric that comes from the party? Can gay family members reconcile my support of a party that seeks to strip them of their basic human rights? These are not issues which pit moderate against conservative views, but rather consequential matters which transcend political positioning and speak to universal human values. There are a number of Republicans (and Democrats) who will view my switch to "decline to state" as a net gain for the Democratic Party. However, I reject the theory of zero-sum politics which claim we live in a binary world of Democrats and Republicans, where a lack of support for one side works only to empower the other. Having now been active in both major political parties, I've discovered the common prohibited activity is critical thinking. President Ronald Reagan once famously said, "I did not leave the Democratic Party, the Democratic Party left me," and I can now say that I have been abandoned by both Democrats and Republicans. In order to stay true to myself, my family and values, the only rational, responsible option is independence. © Copyright The Sacramento Bee. All rights reserved.

What a crock of absolute shit. The weasel got tired of being called a Uncle Tom by the Tan Klan members,so he caved. Obama NEVER excelled at anything other than playing the victim and working AA for all it was worth,and he never worked hard a day in his life. EVER. Yet in spite of his accomplishments, the president is still labeled an illegitimate, Uhhhh,he was. socialist, He was before he evolved into the fascist he is today. African witch doctor Well,it's the only kind of doctor he is qualified to be,and HE is the one that always refereed to himself as an African instead of as an American before he won the Dim primary. and has his face superimposed on a chimpanzee. Hey! Uncle Ant-Wan! Remember when your leftie pals were posting photos of Bush as a chimp? Why is it ok to do this to whites,but NEVER allowed when it comes to blacks? Ever heard of evolution,Uncle LeRoi?

Asswipe was always a demoncrat. He just went back to the slavers/murderers plantation.

It is to be expected when Nixon invited the Dixie-crats into the party that their filthy contagion would spread. I am an ex-Republican and I approve this message. He is not alone: A Republican Leaves His Party In Disgust Dallas Morning News columnist Frank Schaeffer finally had enough after getting a call from supporters of Senator George Allen of Virginia suggesting Allen’s Democratic foe Jim Webb is a “perverted pedophile.” Schaeffer describes himself as “a Christian, a writer, a military parent and a registered Republican. And he feels his party has left him. "My wife and I have reached the tipping point. We plan to go to town hall to dump our Republican voter registration and reregister as independents. I don’t care anymore what party someone is in. These days, what I care about is what they’re made of. Wartime demands leaders with character and moral authority. The political party smearing Mr. Webb proves it has neither." ROAST REPUBLICAN PIGS!

Sounds like he got tired of being the Republican Party's token black man too. Obama NEVER excelled at anything other than playing the victim and working AA for all it was worth,and he never worked hard a day in his life. EVER. I thought Obama suddenly appeared on the national stage, a mystery man with no history - how did you come to have such complete knowledge of his work habits?
It is our responsibility to protect that child once that child’s born too. When we start debating a budget, let’s make sure we don’t cut 100,000 vaccines. Let’s make sure we’ve got health insurance. We seem to worship what we cannot see, but as soon as that baby’s born, oh no, we don’t want to be intrusive. Texas is going to shrink government until it fits inside a women’s uterus.

No, those guys are Republicans now.

What's sauce for the goof... When I was growing up in the early 60's, there was a guy on our block, who was in his late 30's early 40's and who was a real fuck up...every now and again he'd go on drunken rages against, apparently nothing, and once he got into trouble for throwing light bulbs out of his window at passing cars like us kids would do with snowballs in winter. He lived with his elderly dad and when the son would go off like this, the Dad would often call my father over. One stark childhood memory of mine is after one such incident, and one in which my father convinced the police to leave and that he would "take care of it", was seeing my father standing and talking this guy down as he sat, unseen, on his steps. When it was all over and my father was set to leave, suddenly, I see him, silhouetted against a street light, take a step back, come to rigid attention and snap off a salute. Jimmy stood, moved into the same backlight, and returned it and then they shook hands and my father came home. I remember when my father returned to our porch he looked at my ma, chuckled and then quite nonchlantly said, "Well...we'll all sleep quietly tonight." This guy had "stormed the beach at Normandy" and my father, a WWII vet, continually referred to this guy as a hero. It's a lesson that I have since carried with me. Call it a goofy lesson and that's fine. It's still a lesson nevertheless. Sneaky would have been the last one out of a war that no one wanted least of all those who actually fought it. As far as I am concerned, him ranting on the internet deserves the quarter of this lesson.
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" That's that stupidest thing I have ever read. McCain was a war hero but if he took America to war over Georgian/Russian war that's OK because he was a war hero and we should not criticize him?

Your palsey aside, I have no issue with your opinion about Sneaky. I've done nothing to dimimish it. And, yea, I'd give McCain similar quarter on the internet as well. Goig to war. not so much. But if he wanted to come here and rant and rave...
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" That's the best you have? Douche-bag.

Lucy you are such a fool. The demoncrats are enslaving us with debt and regulations. They are also the pro baby murder party. It is in their platform. Anyone who calls themselves a democrat is a self identified sicko.
Democrats are the party of immorality. They can't control themselves to they murder little precious babies. Why do you think blacks are so good at basketball and sports? Most of them got an early start moving around and dodging coat hangers in the womb.
Regulation follows abuse just as bailouts follow deregulation.

Almost all of them vote to fund murders of American children.
Desiring some nice looking trim of the female persuasion is perverted/liberal?
Weiner is a flasher.
Cripes, you must have forgotten to take your meds today.
Desiring is one thing, getting it is another...... especially when you're supposed to be married to one... So sending pictures of his scrawny little body and whatever he calls that thing he had in his hand is the way to go about it????? Why didn't he do it the old fashioned way with a trench coat and stand on the street corner "flashing" women.... I still don't think he would have gotten any no matter what.... Even the porn goddess came out and said "No way" to him...... So whatever happened to "dating" or scoring with the prostitutes??? Wonder who got his wife pregnant?????

Really stupid..... He would have gotten more respect from me if he had used a trench coat and fessed up to what he did, instead of trying to hide his actions and lie like hell... So do you live in Ohio or somewhere close by????

So now you remember? And it is clear this military veteran met all needs for Arlington and your gripe is she is a black woman and was only buried there for that reason (and the reasons you give for only being buried at Arlington on that other web site are false).

No,I knew all along what you had your panties all in a wad about. I just wanted to make you state it plainly. And it is clear this military veteran met all needs for Arlington .. ONLY if the ONLY requirement is she be an anti-American racist black bitch. Kinda like you. your gripe is she is a black woman and was only buried there for that reason.. See,like a broken clock,sometimes even YOU are right. I'm sure it was a mistake on your part,though. (and the reasons you give for only being buried at Arlington on that other web site are false). And there you are back to normal again. Wrong. I encourage everybody to click on that link you provided and see what a self-serving racist bitch she was,and how she only joined the army during WW-2 was because it was the highest paying job she could find,and that she never left the US the whole time.

I didn't know that GI's during WWII could determine where they were to be stationed. And since most in Vietnam who volunteered did so to avoid the draft, how's that for a motive?
But as a proud black man, I can no longer be a member of the Republican Party. fuck you rodent. posting this crap is like the comical "conservatives for barack" crap we saw back in 2008. reeks of how pathetically scared you are of next years' enormous landslide:)
Death to everybody who does not get outta my way. (decided to retire the beatdowns on old worthless retread posters that are bozoed)
Add that to large list of many of the things you don't know. Blacks weren't even ALLOWED to serve in combat units in the army during WW-2,never mind female blacks that got a direct commission as a teacher. Which is really irrelevant,since she never received a Silver Star or a Purple Heart,and she didn't retire from the army. Even IF she had served overseas she STILL wouldn't qualify for burial at Arlington. And since most in Vietnam who volunteered did so to avoid the draft, how's that for a motive? People enlisted to go to VN in order to avoid being drafted and sent to VN? Where the hell do you come up with this nonsense?

Both sides pull the "I was a Dim-0-Crat until...../I was a Republican until..." nonsense. The only surprising thing is that there is anybody that hangs out on political websites that is still stupid enough to believe it. Yeah,there are people that switch parties,but it's never over just one issue.

The 370th Regimental Combat Team of the 92nd "Buffalo" Division was activated in 1944 and fought in Italy after D-Day. Please note: Due to your account status (Probationed), you may make 10 comments per day. You have made 9 comment(s) so far today. See yinz tomorrow...
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" Not 100% correct. From wikipedia: The Tuskegee Airmen were the first African American military aviators in the United States armed forces. During World War II, African Americans in many U.S. states still were subject to racist Jim Crow laws.[N 1] The American military was racially segregated, as was much of the federal government. The Tuskegee Airmen were subject to racial discrimination, both within and outside the army. Despite these adversities, they trained and flew with distinction. Although the 477th Bombardment Group "worked up" on North American B-25 Mitchell bombers, they never served in combat; the Tuskegee 332nd Fighter Group was the only operational unit, first sent overseas as part of Operation Torch, then in action in Sicily and Italy, before being deployed as bomber escorts in Europe where they were particularly successful in their missions.[3] The Tuskegee Airmen initially were equipped with Curtiss P-40 Warhawks fighter- bomber aircraft, briefly with Bell P-39 Airacobras (March 1944), later with Republic P-47 Thunderbolts (June–July 1944), and finally the fighter group acquired the aircraft with which they became most commonly associated, the North American P-51 Mustang (July 1944). When the pilots of the 332nd Fighter Group painted the tails of their P-47's red, the nickname "Red Tails" was coined. Bomber crews applied a more effusive "Red-Tail Angels" sobriquet. [N 2] [4] From http://www.lwfaam.net/ww2/: 16.1 million - Total war-time service members. Bye, rat-boy mike. We'll miss you. [NOT] I stand corrected. Blacks were not allowed (even though I am certain some wanted to fight) to serve in combat units until late in the war. They didn't do very well,but that shouldn't be surprising. None of them had ever been in combat before,including the NCO's and officers,and they were going up against hardened German troops that had actually been fighting for years by that time. Not only that,but the experienced Germans were fighting from defensive positions,and the green troops were assaulting.

Not 100% correct. From wikipedia: The Tuskegee Airmen ( /tŒsÈkiÐaiÐ/)[1] is the popular name of a group of African American pilots who fought in World War II. Formally, they were the 332nd Fighter Group and the 477th Bombardment Group of the U.S. Army Air Corps. That's the magical unit all the lies were told about. The PC airmen. Yes,they were technically in the army,but only because the Air Force was a part of the army during WW-2.

What does any of this have to do with public policy or conservative values? Here is a man who excelled academically at the finest schools in the world, has a wonderful in-tact family, worked hard and rose to become president of the United States.
