It is past time for the Congressional Black Caucus, as well as the Democratic and Republican Congressional Hispanic Caucuses to be abolished. The reason?
They are racist.
In this day and time it is morally reprehensible and counterproductive to have caucuses solely based on race. Just the very names are racist. How would the “minorities” feel if there was a Congressional Caucasian Caucus, which allowed only white members no matter the makeup of the constituency?
Exactly. They wouldn’t like it one bit, and would raise total hell about it.
Well, when you have a Democratic Representative from California who tries to gain membership into the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) so he can represent his constituency - which is 60% black — be rejected because he is white, and ONLY because he is white, it’s quite obvious the group is racist in their membership and agenda.
Recently, some members of the CBC have been trying to race-bait and stir up racial strife once again. Regarding the Tea Party, Representative Maxine Waters (D-CA) said the following:
I’m not afraid of anybody. This is a tough game. You can’t be intimidated. You can’t be frightened. And as far as I’m concerned, the ‘tea party’ can go straight to Hell.
And if this wasn’t enough, Andre Carson (D-IN) said “some of them in Congress right now of this tea party movement would love to see you and me … hanging on a tree.”
Frankly, this is the kind of rhetoric that drives wedges between races and classes of people, and that is exactly what these members of Congress want. They want their constituents to hate everyone that isn’t black. They want their constituents to remain deaf, dumb and blind to what they are doing. They want their constituents to stay “on the government plantation” if you will.
Wake up, Black Americans! Wake up, Hispanic Americans! Wake up, AMERICANS! Do you really want to be represented by people like this, who are so full of hate? It is time to fully realize Dr. King’s Dream:
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.
I have a dream today…
And when this happens, when we allow freedom to ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God’s children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, “Free at last! free at last! thank God Almighty, we are free at last!”
It is time that our Nation is truly free from all oppression and racism. Vote these people out that would race-bait and stir up racial strife. Let’s abolish all racial caucuses. Like the unions, they have lived out their usefulness. (If they were ever “useful” at all.)
That is the only way our country can move toward being “colorblind”.
