“High-Tech Lynching”: Herman Cain Raises Funds With New Campaign Ad – Umm, Race Card Much?

Nov 04, 2011 9 Comments by

So, when is it going to be BET’s turn to host a GOP debate? What, aren’t “we” good enough? Hey I’m only asking because they’re saying that “GOP is the new Black: with the emergence of Herman Cain. No but seriously, I’d watch a GOP debate on BET; shit, I think just watching them pander to a room full of “brainwashed” Black folks would be hilarious. And I can guarantee you, that it would be the only time the boos of the crowd would be welcomed. Not welcomed by the GOP of course. Shoot, they’ll just chalk that up to Negro racism like they always do.

Speaking of Negroes, and liberal racism — I just watched Herman Cain’s Super PAC’s new commercial. As you know, due to said liberal racism, Cain isn’t actually having the best week ever. Well, actually he is, because he has raised more money in just a few days than ever in his campaign. Yep, see how that playing the race card thing works? Uh-huh, ever since Cain received what my man Paul Mooney calls. “the nigger wake up call, white folks in the Republican party have been donating to his campaign hand over foot. Cain’s campaign has raised $1.6 million this week.

Ironically, the National Restaurant Association has just acknowledged its settlement made with Cain’s sexual harassment accuser. All of this while Cain has since shifted blame for the leak of these allegations to Rick Perry. Well, last time I checked, Perry wasn’t a liberal; and, in spite of the name of his ranch — “Niggerhead” — I’m not sure if he’s racist. But don’t tell that to the folks behind Cain’s latest ad. When you need the money, it’s always a good idea to play the race card. Just ask “brainwashed” Democrats like Rev. Al Sharpton, and Rev. Jesse Jackson – according to Republicans, they do it all the time. Like Herman Cain or not, it’s really nice to see the Koch Brothers’ Brother From Another Mother remember his color.

Sorry Herman, if you’re getting heat for sexual harassment, blame yourself

Yes, he's Black; yes, he's proud; and yes, he says it loud. As such, he's often misunderstood.

    I’m going to say something here that I KNOW Rippa and the rest of the folks over here are going to jump all over, but hey it needs to be said. Now, you know I have NO LOVE for Republicans (or Democrats for that matter either) but really? Are you going to spend DAYS excoriating Herman Cain for sexual harassment, misconduct, whatever, when you know damn well if he was a so called “progressive” you would be all over the internet proclaiming that he was set up and the charges against him were fabricated OR that they have nothing to do with his ability to govern?

    Is a Black man running for office only a Black man subject to the same racist tactics as any other Black man if he is a Democrat?

    And, no I am not a fan of Cain, nor am I saying he is a good dude and should be hailed as a hero, but really? If this was a left wing politician, even erasing the racial angle, “progressives” would be all over this story as being a distraction and a tactic to assail the character of THEIR candidate!

    Go ahead, let the hate begin… it doesn’t mean I am wrong!

    PS I also believe that the “conservatives” who are defending Herman Cain are showing just as much racism as people who are willing to jump on the bandwagon to defame the man! All I am saying, is even if you think the man is dumb as hell for being a Republican (which I tend to agree with), if he were actually a Dem, the same people who are getting at him for this incident would be expressing undying support and the white “progressives” would most assuredly be leading the charges of racism, just as the conservatives are right now.

    Bottom line it, if you are a Dem, you blindly defend Dems, if you are a Rep, you blindly defend Reps. That is one of the problems with politics as usual. When it all comes down to it, how does sexual conduct impact someone’s ability to govern? Did the fact that Clinton got a blow job all of a sudden cause him to lose the support of his party? Nope! So Democrats and Republicans alike are just doing what folks naturally do when it comes to blindly following the party line.

      Did “progressives” respond as you said they would when it was Anthony Weiner?

      • http://www.depravedmindset.com jujube

        YOU did! As did many other “progressive” bloggers….

          Given the work of Andrew Breitbart in the last two years, is it a strecth to think that it could have been a set up? But, umm, show me where I did; please do?

            Did you catch the part where I said “OR that they have nothing to do with his ability to govern?”

          • http://rippdemup.com/ RiPPa

            I guess you’re not goig to show me…

            Rippa, I never said that you said there was a set up. But you did make an argument about how Weiner should not have been forced to resign, and I can only assume that you mean because his sexual misconduct does not afffect his job performance. OR means that is one of the two options provided, and in this case you took the second option.

            Well, you know what they say about assuming…
