Race traitor Michael Steele is very relevant

How often does this stupid talking point get recycled, anyhow?

Being that Planned Parenthood doesn't force anyone to have an abortion, African American women themselves must be central to the plot to eliminate and limit the African American population. Genocidal lot, those women!

The thing which really flips my wig is that he ignores all of the "black and brown" pregnancies and births which were successful due to the women's health services provided by Planned Parenthood.

ChaChing....you win the prize for saying the most logical thing about the whole subject. Don't forget about all the women who survived cancer due to early treatment after free breast exams and mammograms and survived cervical and uterine cancer due to free pap smears and vaginal exams. Oh I forgot saying breast and vagina is sinful and kids can't be taught about it.

File this one under "Inflammatory, destructive rhetoric" in the same folder within which one would claim that "the Jews killed Jesus".

And Steele is supposed to be a "moderate."

From the same party that currently laments the low birth rate among whites.

Yes. I was in the Ghetto recently and a car came down the street with a loud speaker playing soul music. Then a man spoke and told the women who was pregnent that they could abort at the nearest Planned Parenthood Clinic. If they needed a ride, one would be available. No questions asked. Yes. Uh huh. You betcha. Grifters On Parade.

Steele's argument totally ignores African American women as people who have control over their lives. It's as if he's treating them as empty headed robots with no volition of their own, doing whatever somebody else else tells them.

Patronizing and sexist.

Hmm. But just the other day right wingers were complaining about the high minority birth rate.

Really? A "Race traitor"?

You can be a supportive of Planned Parenthood all you want, but don't be so quick to criticize an African American when he doesn't want to give sainthood to a person who thought he was inferior simply by the virtue of his skin colour.

Margaret Sanger was who she was. You can't hide the fact that she was a racist. Sanger believed that lighter-skinned races were superior to darker-skinned races.

How you can tell Michael Steele that he should not care about that, and say he is a "Race Traitor" says more about your attitude towards race and is nothing short of racism on YOUR part.

re: #13 Buck

Sanger believed that lighter-skinned races were superior to darker-skinned races

I was curious about this since I alway hear it, but usually from right-wingers. So I pulled up wikipedia and saw that what you wrote is identical to the first part of the first sentence on the section on race. You failed to include the rest of the sentence and ignored the information in the rest of the paragraph that provides some interesting context.

Sanger believed that lighter-skinned races were superior to darker-skinned races, but would not tolerate bigotry among her staff, nor any refusal to work within interracial projects.[83] Her contemporaries in the African-American community supported her efforts. In 1929, James H. Hubert, a black social worker and leader of New York's Urban League, asked Sanger to open a clinic in Harlem.[84] Sanger secured funding from the Julius Rosenwald Fund and opened the clinic, staffed with African-American doctors, in 1930. The clinic was directed by a 15-member advisory board consisting of African-American doctors, nurses, clergy, journalists, and social workers. The clinic was publicized in the African-American press and African-American churches, and received the approval of W. E. B. Du Bois, founder of the NAACP.[85] Sanger's work with minorities earned praise from Martin Luther King, Jr., in his 1966 acceptance speech for the Margaret Sanger award.[86]

So, not surprisingly, this 'Sanger is a racist' stuff is a bit more complicated than folks like you on the right would have us believe. Typical.

Who mentioned sainthood again, exactly?

This is not true (& I know where you got it from, word for word). And the best proof of it is the fact that African American leaders of the day who knew her & worked with her praised her. So, if she was a racist, then WEB Du Bois was an idiot & a "race traitor", as well as Dr. King.

Why Hate Groups Continue to Exist in 2013
Fifty years ago, African-Americans were targets of the Ku Klux Klan's violent hate agenda as the Civil Rights movement gained steam in desegregating public institutions across the South. The Birmingham church bombings, which killed four little girls in 1963, was one of the most violent crimes the Ku Klux Klan has been responsible for in attacking Black Americans (on Friday, the president signed ...

Obamacare Will Be a Debacle — for Republicans
Well, the preliminary numbers for CA are in -- and they're looking very good, with costs coming in below expectations. At this point, it looks as if this thing is indeed going to work. And think about the political dynamics. Because the Supreme Court decided to let states opt out of the Medicaid expansion, some states -- notably Texas -- will have a ...

An Interplanetary GPS Using Pulsar Signals
Spacecraft could determine their position anywhere in the solar system to within five kilometres using signals from x-ray pulsars, say astronomers. Navigating in space is a tricky business. The usual method relies on Earth-based tracking stations to work out a spacecraft's distance using radio waves, a process that is accurate to within a metre or so. That's fine for the radial distance, but ...

SIGN THE PETITION, learn about it: Feminist Campus - Campaign to Expose Fake Clinics
"Crisis Pregnancy Centers" (CPCs) or Pregnancy Resource Centers advertise on your campus and in your community. They pose as comprehensive women's health clinics and advertise under "abortion" and "family planning" services, but do not offer abortion services, contraception, or referrals. CPCs often provide false information about abortion, birth control, and the effectiveness of condoms for the prevention of STIs and HIV. Ultimately, their ...

4 Reasons ‘Raiders of the Lost Ark’ Is Secretly About Drugs
Nice, right? Anyway, here's my thesis: Raiders of the Lost Ark is not an action-adventure movie about an archaeologist who plays by his own rules and saves the day. Instead, the film is an exploration of Marion Ravenwood's crippling drug addiction. An addiction that was born from her unhealthy relationship and continued association with Indiana Jones. Is it true? Who cares. Can I prove ...

WAPO’s Glenn Kessler Gives Three “Pinocchios” To Claim of Doctored Emails
It has long been part of the Washington game for officials to discredit a news story by playing up errors in a relatively small part of it. Pfeiffer gives the impression that GOP operatives deliberately tried to "smear the president" with false, doctored e-mails. But the reporters involved have indicated they were told by their sources that these were summaries, taken from notes ...
