Damn, Will Y'all Just Chill Out?

Y'all seem to have forgotten in your panicked vanilla scented rush to judgment and low expectations in this debt ceiling battle that the POTUS did graduate from Harvard Law, taught constitutional law and has accomplished more in his first term that the last occupant of the Oval Office did in eight years.

And he's done so while having to fight a hostile and openly racist Republican Party determined to make him a one term president,  so called liberals still mad because he beat Hillary Clinton in the 2008 Democratic primary for the nomination and lukewarm GL peeps mad because he hasn't moved fast enough in their opinions to make same gender marriage the law of the land.

So chill and let President Obama do what he has to do to ensure he gets reelected next year while standing up for the things we Democrats consider important.

Conservafools, Just Say No To Making Slavery Comparisons

Rep. Michele Bachmann and her GOP conservative friends don't know much about history since they rewrite it so often, and they really need to just have a nice steaming cup of shut the hell up when it comes to trying to talk about slavery.

Bachmann now is looking stupider than Sarah Palin along with Rick Santorum for signing a Iowa conservafool group's 'The Marriage Vow' pledge with this in it:

Slavery had a disastrous impact on African-American families, yet sadly a child born into slavery in 1860 was more likely to be raised by his mother and father in a two-parent household than was an African-American baby born after the election of the USA’s first African-American President.

You know, you people are clearly delusional and clueless, and not fit to hold public office above dog catcher.

Yeah, we African-Americans are pining for the good old days when we got a free boat ride with luxurious accommodations from the African continent, had full employment, three crappy meals a day for 246 years, got paid nothing for our labor, were denigrated, abused, denied education, forced into marriages by massa, our women were raped in the slave quarters, and forced to bear and raise your children or breed them to replenish your plantation population.

And those so called 'stable slave families' were repeatedly broken up by selling mama, daddy and the children off in different directions to put money in your pockets so you could sit on the porch of your big plantation house and sip sweet tea all day.

Those slave marriages you quoted were not recognized by y'all either, just as you fail to recognize the marriages of transgender, gay and lesbian people today. 


But back to calling out the conservafools on their fracked up slavery reference.

After your vanilla ancestors lost The War To Perpetuate Slavery, the Black family during Reconstruction and afterward continued to be under assault by white sheet wearing terrorists, white mobs, and white conservative politicians for the next 150 years.   It's a miracle we African Americans have accomplished what we have in this country despite your repeated attempts via the bullet, the rope and the ballot to tear down what we painstakingly have worked generations to build.   

So how dare you conservapeople even part your lips to try to compare the African-American situation today in the 2K10's as 'worse than slavery' when you and your ancestors are complicit in creating many of the conditions that have exacerbated our problems that are rooted in America's Original Sin?

 I agree with Cornell Belcher, we need something similar to Godwin's Law in terms of slavery.   "If you use slavery to make cheap political points in an argument, you automatically lose.'  

So conservafools, just say no to making slavery comparisons.   By doing so you just keep making the case for us just how cluelessly ignorant and racist you really are and ensure you'll never beyond a few Oreo cookie chomping sellouts get our votes.

The GOP IS The Problem With TBLG Rights Advancement

I started chuckling to myself when I read this post of Cristan's on her blog in which she laid out the case that the Republican Party was the problem when it comes to making TBLG civil rights advances.

Y'all just now figuring that out?   You're late.

Hell, I've been saying that on this blog in numerous posts since 2006, on my FB page, Twitter and in other places on the Net for years about why Republicans will NEVER get my vote in any election cycle for the rest of my time on Planet Earth.

I am already well aware of the fact as an African descended trans person they are anti civil rights and have been since 1964.  I am not, can not and will not cast a vote in any election for a party that has made it their mission to oppress me and my people.

But yet we have misguided TBLG people who drink that GOP red Kool-Aid from 55 gallon drums and think they can convince Republicans to consistently vote yes for TBLG rights issues.   Maybe in the New England states they'll occasionally vote for TBLG rights issues like they did in Maine.

But anywhere else in the country, especially the Deep South, that's as likely to happen as Rick Perry having a bad hair day

And even in New England the problem has been Republican bloc voting in opposition to TBLG rights bills.  Who has been the primary impediment to GENDA passing in New York state?   If you said Ruben Diaz, you ignore the fact that the Republican bloc voting is the reason he any influence over the process in the first place.

It is the height of stupidity and illogical to throw away votes on a party that has made it crystal clear in their words, deeds and party platform for decades their mission is to retard and roll back TBLG civil rights progress.

And that's not just a Texas GOP thang.

We African Americans know who our oppressors are, and they worship the Elephant.  It's why African Americans have voted since the 80's at 90% clips.for Democrats and are involved in the party at all levels.

How many times do TBLG people need to be kicked, disrespected or slapped by anti-TBLG Republicans before you wake up and stop voting for them because you fell for that okey doke 'they will be a counterbalance to skittish Democrats' bull feces?    

Wake the frack up and see the Republican judges repeatedly ignoring common sense and ruling negatively on TBLG issues.  Pay attention to the legions of Republican legislators proposing bills that roll back or restrict our civil rights and spouting faith based hate speech as their reasons for doing so.    

Even Stevie Wonder can see that Republican state and federal legislators repeatedly bloc vote against TBLG positive legislation no matter what their location or pass legislation to roll it back like they just did in Tennessee.


Wanna do something about a conservative Dem or ones skittish about TBLG rights issues?  Scare their anuses by doing what our oppressors do.  Run against them in the primaries.  If you're lucky you replace them with a more progressive candidate, and even if you don't, you've sent the message that if you don't toe the line on progressive issues, you'll get an opponent in the next election cycle.

If Republicans supported TBLG rights like their apologists alleged they do, Sen. Williams would have never proposed the odious SB 723 bill in the first place, and I and others wouldn't have had to use bandwith rallying trans Texans to organize and fight tooth and nail to get our Democratic senators to hold together as a group to kill that anti trans bill. 

It should be fairly obvious by now with three decades worth of mounting evidence that you will not get progressive civil rights policies out of conservative GOP politicians.   It's time for TBLG people to buy a vowel, get a clue and stop voting for a party that has made it their mission in life to oppress them.
