Rep. Andre Carson: Tea Party Wants To See Blacks ‘Hanging On A Tree’

ABC News’ Amy Bingham reports:

While Republican presidential candidates arrange and re-arrange their schedules in an attempt to court Tea Partiers, one House Democratic member of the Congressional Black Caucus is blasting the conservative group for trying to take America back to the days of Jim Crow.

In a video circulated Tuesday by conservative commentator Glen Beck’s website The Blaze, Indiana Rep. Andre Carson said the Tea Party was preventing African Americans from making progress toward equality.

“This is the effort that we are seeing of Jim Crow. Some of these folks in Congress right now would love to see us as second class citizens. Some of them in Congress right now with this Tea Party movement would love to see you and me… hanging on a tree,” Carson said at a Aug. 22 Congressional Black Caucus Job Tour even in Miami.

“Some of them right now in Congress right now are comfortable with where we were fifty or sixty years ago,” Carson added. “But it’s a new day with a black president and a Congressional Black Caucus.”

Carson’s office confirmed that he made the remarks, which were caught on video. His spokesman Jason Tomsci told the Washington Post that the Congressman’s remarks were in response to many of his constituents’ frustration over “Congress’ inability to bolster the economy.”

http://frontpagemag.com/2012/bruce-bawer/muslim-congressman-supports-madrassas/ A couple of weeks ago I wrote here about a recent piece in the Nation, “Fear and Loathing of Islam,” in which one Moustafa Bayoumi argued that the overwhelming majority of American Muslims are just ordinary people who want to live ordinary lives, and that any doubts about their loyalties, concerns about their potential […]

HOW MUCH IS ABETTED BY THE MUSLIM POPULATIONS IN EUROPE’S CITIES?…..RSK

Last week I met Israel’s foreign minister, Avigdor Lieberman, for a thirty-minute interview. We talked on many issues, like Iran, Egypt, the settlements, the Palestinians and also the European boycott of Israeli goods and companies. Lieberman said: “It’s nothing new.” True, the Jewish people have already been boycotted in the past. But I left Lieberman with the feeling that the Israeli diplomatic chief didn’t really understand the impact of the new economic warfare.

If in the past the orders came from Damascus, where the Arab League headquartered its operations, today the boycott obsession is spreading through Europe’s pension funds, supermarkets, firms and companies, labor unions and food co-ops.
 The campaign is led by transnational groups, mainstream media, charities, pressure groups and campaigning networks. And it has already proven very successful.

Last week Norway’s finance ministry has excluded Shikun & Binui, Israel’s largest real estate company, from the Government Pension Fund Global (the largest in Europe) “over its construction of illegal Israeli colonies in East Jerusalem.” Norway’s oil fund already withdrew its investment from Africa-Israel and Danya Cebus, citing involvement in “settlement construction.”

Cuba, a lovely Communist paradise, which millionaire leftists like Michael Moore and Steven Spielberg have told us has health care vastly superior to our own, is experiencing an outbreak of cholera. There are at least 15 dead and a thousand sick, but the advanced Cuban health care system is on the case. The authorities have banned any mention of “cholera” and doctors are putting down “acute respiratory insufficiency” as the cause of death for the epidemic.
But there’s no need to sneer at Cuba for handling the problem the way that all governments handle problems– by denying that it exists. According to the Cuban government, there is no serious cholera outbreak. According to the European Union, there’s no Eurozone meltdown. According to Obama, the private sector is doing just fine.

Accountability and government bureaucracies don’t go together. When the latter are put in charge of health care, then cholera patients end up doing just as fine as the private sector while the bosses smile and offer themselves another pay raise. That is how euthanasia happens in the UK’s NHS, the envy of six-figure bureaucrats and seven-figure activists on this side of the ocean. Difficult patients are just set aside, denied food and water, and allowed to be just “fine” until they die.

http://pjmedia.com/blog/muslims-vs-archaeology/?print=1 What is it about Islam that leads so many Muslims to see their cultural patrimony as something to be despised and even destroyed? Harking back to the Taliban’s destruction of Afghanistan’s Bamiyan Buddhas in 2001, Muslims in northern Mali last week moved against their own country’s heritage. The Islamic supremacist group Ansar Dine (Defenders […]

TOO BAD REP. JOE WALSH WHO IS A SPLENDID MAN IS BAHAVING SO BADLY WITH RESPECT TO HIS OPPONENT…..RSK

Americans have traditionally respected military service, and have over the years chosen many veterans as political leaders. George Washington had been a general in the Continental Army. Teddy Roosevelt rode up San Juan Hill and into the White House. Harry Truman was an artillery officer in WWI. Dwight Eisenhower was a renowned general and theater commander during WWII. John Kennedy was famed for his service aboard the PT-109. There are many other examples.Aspiring politicians have long-known and exploited the link between military service and electability. Military experience is usually an asset with voters, provided the candidate in question handles his service tastefully and in a manner that is not overtly manipulative. Then-Senator John Kennedy ran successfully for the White House in 1960 partly on the strength of his wartime service in the U.S. Navy aboard the now-famous PT-109. His opponent, Richard Nixon, had also served in the U.S.N. during WWII and military service – or lack of it – did not become a major issue during the campaign.

Conversely, an obviously-staged photo of Democrat presidential candidate Michael Dukakis (a U.S. Army veteran) posed in an M1 Abrams tank in September, 1988 – may have cost him the election that fall. Rightly or wrongly, “Dukakis in a tank” has since entered the public relations lexicon as shorthand for a mishandled photo op.

Who can forget John Kerry’s appearance at the Democratic National Convention in 2004, sporting the very same medals he allegedly had thrown away in disgust thirty years earlier over the Vietnam War? Candidate Kerry accepted the Democrat Party nomination with a salute and the words “Reporting for duty” – but the voters didn’t buy it. He lost to George W. Bush.

These and other episodes come to mind in the wake of the tawdry and unseeming dust-up between incumbent Congressman Joe Walsh (R-IL, 8th District) and Democrat Tammy Duckworth, who will oppose him in the fall election.

Duckworth, an army officer and helicopter pilot, lost both of her legs in action in Iraq in 2004, when an RPG hit her UH-60 “Blackhawk” helicopter. Walsh, who is not a veteran, has accused Duckworth of exploiting her military service for political gain. Said Walsh, “Now I’m running against a woman who, I mean– my God– that’s all she talks about,” Walsh told an audience in Elk Grove, Ill. “Our true heroes, the men and women who served us, it’s the last thing in the world they talk about.” Duckworth campaign manager Kaitlin Fahey fired back in a July 3rd statement, “Congressman Walsh’s comments insult those who sacrificed to make this country free.” Duckworth herself, appearing on MSNBC’s “Hardball” in an interview with Michael Smerconish, said that “that she never claimed to be a hero” and that Walsh’s charges were “irresponsible.”
