Rep. Inglis tells all: GOP using racism, demagoguery in response to Obama.

Bob Inglis In June, Rep. Bob Inglis (R-SC) became one of the first incumbent Republicans to be knocked off by an insurgent Tea Party candidate. Although he maintained a 93 percent lifetime rating from the American Conservative Union, primary voters deemed Inglis to be insufficiently conservative. In an interview with Mother Jones, Inglis said that one of the reasons for his defeat was because he refused to demagogue like other conservatives in the House. In one instance during the primary, Inglis was chastised simply for not calling President Obama a “socialist.” He also noted that many of the GOPs criticisms regarding Obama’s response to the economic crisis were motivated by racism:

Instead, he remarks, his party turned toward demagoguery. Inglis lists the examples: falsely claiming Obama’s health care overhaul included “death panels,” raising questions about Obama’s birthplace, calling the president a socialist, and maintaining that the Community Reinvestment Act was a major factor of the financial meltdown. “CRA,” Inglis says, “has been around for decades. How could it suddenly create this problem? You see how that has other things worked into it?” Racism? “Yes,” Inglis says.

Inglis also had particular criticism of House GOP leader John Boehner and GOP whip Eric Cantor, whom he accused of being unwilling to “summon the courage” to stand up to Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, and Tea Partiers.

    This is nice, but would Inglis be talking like this if he won his primary? The answer is the same as the GnOP platform, NO!

They simply don’t care and no one in the media or at any level is outraged enough to cause them to change.

    Amazing isn’t it. Nothing shames these people any more. They wear bad behavior as a badge of honor.

    In terms of rolling back the clock on rights and equality, many of these folks are on record as wanting to go back to the original constitution. Many have actively said they want to roll back the 17th (Senators elected by popular vote); and now the 14th (birthright citizenship among other things) seems to be up for grabs.

    This demagoguery was the brain child of Karl “traitor” Rove and it has snowballed into something that the Republican Party can no longer control. This is what happens when fascists gain power. The Tea Party is filled with fascists and religious fanatics.

    The troll oblaskins finds it hard to believe that the republican party would be in cahoots with corporate America to keep unemployment high and job creation low.

    The troll is too ignorant to realizes that both the republicans and corporate America gain by high unemployment and no job creation.

    In working together, the republicans obstructing while corporate America holds onto their profits, they know that a bad economy is caused by high unemployment which hurts the democratic party in 2010.

    Both gain if the republicans take back power, as more deregulation will occur, lower corporate taxes will be passed, tax cuts for the rich will continue, more offshoring of jobs will happen once the republicans are back in power.

    The troll forgets that some members of the republican party admitted that a terrorist attack in our country would be political gain for them.

    The troll forgets that the Reagan administration brokered a deal with Iran to hold US hostages until after the 1980 presidential elections.

    The troll forgets that a republican operative twisted a positive message by Shirley Sherrod in an attempt to scare white America, all for the benefit of the republican party.

    The troll forgets that the Bush administration used the fear of phony terrorism threats and phony Bin Laden videos before the 2002 and 2004 elections to help the republicans remain in power.

    Actually, Genius, the FAILED Bush/Cheney tax cuts/deregulation policies served to unnaturally bloat our deficit and thrust the GLOBAL economy (in domino-like fashion) into the pisser, flowing from the Wall Street meltdown.

    If that’s what you consider “working”, then you have a lot more intellectual problems than are being exposed on this thread.

    Rich man/bigger tips. Poor man/no tips. Economics 101. Make the tax cuts permanent. Hoover proved it: Helping the wealthy helps us all. Helping the poor makes us poor. Here endeth the lesson.

    BAH-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!

    Hoovers policies helped launch us into the great depression but nice try moron!

    The Bush tax cuts cost the US treasury $2.5 trillion dollars over a 10 year period. Guess who paid for that? The middle class and the poor….not the wealthy.

    If the Bush tax cuts continue it will cost the US treasury another $3.7 trillion dollars over the next decade.

    We were told that the Bush tax cuts would create jobs and yet during the Bush administration we had the worst job creation in 40 years.

    Beethoven,

    just as I thought, you don’t have a clue. Your answer to my questions are wingnut sound bites like, workers are lazy, blacks bought homes, jobs are there, but unemployment checks are better.

    You still haven’t answered the question…Businesses and the top 2% were getting these tax breaks for ten years, so why weren’t they creating jobs, like you nuts said would happen? If the tax cuts were so great and deregulation let businesses run without government oversight, which you claim was good, I ask again…What Happened?

    Unemployment is the number of people out of work, eligible, and still searching for a job, not merely the number of people “receiving benefits” you can not be “receiving benefits” and still be counted in unemployment numbers.

    *somewhere in the deep black fortress that is the GOP hq two figures walk a long and dim passageway*

    A man walks slowly, his face downcast and his step measured. He is resignated to his fate. The shadows darken his pale blue eyes. There is no luminosity form the tears he once shed. They and long since dried and been forgotten, a wasted bit of excess in a body that was soon to be rid of such needless impurities.
    Much as he was to be.

    A hunched figure shuffles alongside him, the blackness seeming to radiate off him the slothful waves in a oil slick.
    His walk is also measured, but where his companions is the slow march of the doomed the rolling gait of the hunched one is the stagger of a shell dying from the inside out.

    “Thank you for your loyal service to a cause you really did believe in Citizen Iglis” Cheney hissed quite suddenly and laying a hand on the arm of the man to his left. “I still believe.” Representative Bob Ingalia whispered softly. His words echoing off uncaring walls and ears. The touch of Cheney was light as a lover but poison, slime and rot and corruption incarnate.

    “This is as far as we travel together.” The one good eye of his tormentor sucking at the life in him like the pit of a dead sun. He indicated a table at the far end of the hallway with a short gladius on it. “You know what needs to be done. For the Party.” And with words like the sound of infant bones snapping he leaned back against the wall. “Oh I can wait dear friend. I have all the time in the world…”

    I guess the trolls want to go back to the laissez-faire days where we ate rotten sausages, drank putrid water…

    Upton Sinclair wanted to bring out the plight of the worker in his book the Jungle, except that our focus zoomed in to the condition of the food…

    The Jungle, Chapter 14

    It was only when the whole ham was spoiled that it came into the department of Elzbieta. Cut up by the two-thousand-revolutions-a-minute flyers, and mixed with half a ton of other meat, no odor that ever was in a ham could make any difference. There was never the least attention paid to what was cut up for sausage; there would come all the way back from Europe old sausage that had been rejected, and that was moldy and white–it would be dosed with borax and glycerine, and dumped into the hoppers, and made over again for home consumption. There would be meat that had tumbled out on the floor, in the dirt and sawdust, where the workers had tramped and spit uncounted billions of consumption germs. There would be meat stored in great piles in rooms; and the water from leaky roofs would drip over it, and thousands of rats would race about on it. It was too dark in these storage places to see well, but a man could run his hand over these piles of meat and sweep off handfuls of the dried dung of rats. These rats were nuisances, and the packers would put poisoned bread out for them; they would die, and then rats, bread, and meat would go into the hoppers together. This is no fairy story and no joke; the meat would be shoveled into carts, and the man who did the shoveling would not trouble to lift out a rat even when he saw one– there were things that went into the sausage in comparison with which a poisoned rat was a tidbit. There was no place for the men to wash their hands before they ate their dinner, and so they made a practice of washing them in the water that was to be ladled into the sausage. There were the butt-ends of smoked meat, and the scraps of corned beef, and all the odds and ends of the waste of the plants, that would be dumped into old barrels in the cellar and left there. Under the system of rigid economy which the packers enforced, there were some jobs that it only paid to do once in a long time, and among these was the cleaning out of the waste barrels. Every spring they did it; and in the barrels would be dirt and rust and old nails and stale water–and cartload after cartload of it would be taken up and dumped into the hoppers with fresh meat, and sent out to the public’s breakfast. Some of it they would make into “smoked” sausage–but as the smoking took time, and was therefore expensive, they would call upon their chemistry department, and preserve it with borax and color it with gelatine to make it brown. All of their sausage came out of the same bowl, but when they came to wrap it they would stamp some of it “special,” and for this they would charge two cents more a pound.

    Welcome to Beethoven Rules’ world…


  179. Riyaz Guerra says:

    I truly pity individuals like Beethoven Rules and the Tea Partiers.

    They forfeited their free will in the name of complete, unreserved support for their ‘champions’. Notice I do not say ‘god’, or ‘Constitution’ or ‘country’ because

    A. The great majority have never read the Constitution nor even taken the relevant coursework to truly appreciate the context and nuance of the language.

    B. We all know the bible is a patchwork of contradictory books cobbled together by Constantine written in vague language that is INTERPRETED to the rightwingers by their local preacher (or televangelist).

    C. There are no such thing as ‘American Values’ because they are vague maxims that is shared by many other nations. The difference between left and right is proof enough that the way these values can be expressed are so divergent that we cannot credibly claim to share a common set of values beyond the most vague of concepts.

    In all three points, a ‘champion’…political or religious,..is the true source of the rightwinger’s belief…not the text from which the ‘champion’ (and ultimately, predictably, the rightwinger) deifies.

    Little do these poor simians know, their ‘champions’ are very aware of this dynamic where their followers surrender their free will to the ‘champion’ and rubber-stamps any (or pretty damn most) argument the ‘champion’ puts forth.

    Getting such blind, unqualified loyalty is simple. Take a vocal stand on abortion OR pander their ego…usually in some subtle, subconscious appeal to ethnocentrism or racism. And VOILA! Instant army of drones!

    The rightwing politician banks nearly exclusively on wedge issues, empty appeals to the ego, and appealing to identification when securing votes. Case in point,…look at the nearly homogeneous cultural background of the right. It has nothing to do with any innate weakness of the culture or race….not at all (the culture is another story but I digress). This homogeneity is simply a byproduct of the tactics which they employ to gain supporters…and the group they have targeting to be willing stooges to their scam.

    It’s much harder to do this with the left. Because we come from different backgrounds, different religions (or like me, no religion), etc.

    Politician wants subtly to appeal to the superiority of Christianity? Oops, Democrat A is Jewish. Oops Democrat B is Atheist. Oops Democrat C is Muslim.

    Want to subtly cite the superiority of American culture by hypocritically citing nation X’s behavior? Oops, Democrat A hails from that nation. Democrat B hails from a nation that has good relations with nation X. Democrat C comes from Russia and is all too familiar with this hypocritical self-righteous posturing by some Americans. Democrat D just plain see through the arrogant appeal to the ego and thinks it’s all bu—–t.

    Politician wants to insinuate that the cause of economic collapse is due to a bunch of minorities getting houses they couldn’t afford? Oops Democrat A is a latino and can see right through a cheap tactic designed to be readily accepted by individuals too lazy to check the facts and come readily equipped with a racial bias that enables them to embrace such a charge. Democrat B gets her news from sources outside of faux and is aware of the reckless rush to give out mortgages in order to fuel a lust for mortgage backed securities. Democrat C read the article about mortgage fraud initiated by lenders and poor vetting of mortgage applications.

    I think I’ve made my point.

    So given this ‘deifying’ of religious and political leaders (sadly I would include Beck and Limbaugh in there as well)…’champions’, if you will. Couple that with the herding of the target group to EXCLUSIVELY rely on a narrow spectrum of media outlets for their news / opinion…and THEY GOT YOU BY THE BALLS.

    So tell me, Beethoven Rules, what was it that first turned you into a drone?

    Was it the stand on abortion? In spite of the fact they stop giving a crap about human life once that very child reaches adulthood?

    Was it because oh-my-daddy-town-neighborhood-city-are-rightwingers and -I-so-crave-acceptance-from-them-because-of-these-pesky-feelings-of-inadequacy ?

    Or was it I’ve-got-a-shitty-job-and-it’s-because-of-affirmative-action-that-I-can’t-do-better ?

    Perhaps it was I-lack-self-confidence-in-my-ability-to-achieve-so-I’ll-fall-back-on-feeling-unjustifiably-superior-based-on-cultural-religious-racial-happenstance ?

    I have to say, you rightwingers are fairly amusing and predictable. I’m a cynical bast–d but even I have my days where it all just seems a little sad…

    we both know that the bigger issue with you kkklansmen is that you use “reverse racism” as an excuse for your bigotry. the original kkklan claimed that jews were exploiting them and blacks were racist s@x fiends r@ping their women. they used those trumped up racist charges to deflect from their white racism, just like you and the gop and the teabaggikkklan are doing. and people aren’t buying it dipsh!t.

    just the bleepn facts,

    Again, what is it that you do exactly that makes you so high and mighty as to talk down on everyone here and still affords you the time to do it?

    And I’m not the one spewing rhetoric about racism all over these forumns ; )

    Gross Profit
    - Expenses

    =Net Income
    -Taxes

    =Net Profit

    Learn Accounting or shut up

    The first item there should be called “revenues,” for starters. Nothing is profit until the expenses have been deducted first.

    c you in November pumpkin!

    Oh yeah, you’re going to go from a barely-enough-to-filibuster minority to a supermajority in both houses in one cycle. Good luck with that.

    You know, if you jump off a skyscraper you can fly… might as well go for that while you’re at it.

    oblaskins says:

    Liberals use the label racist whenever they know they no longer have anything meaningful to say about the issues

    The fact that y’all are racist is a pretty meaningful issue, I’d say.

    Revenues=Gross Profit, again someone look at an income statement before making a stupid post

    The fact that y’all are racist is a pretty meaningful issue, I’d say.

    Shows how “open minded” liberals really are

    “again someone look at an income statement before making a stupid post”

    Here here! OR… one could simply look up the actual definitions of the terms:

    Revenue is total earnings and gross profit is like a step below EBITDA. Net is operating profit in an ongoing enterprise, total profit in a one-off transaction.

    Now that that’s settled… what’s the freaking point? Oh right, unemployment. I paid a whole boatload into that system and feel no shame whatsoever for collecting on it for the first time after 30 years in the labor force. In fact, the way I left my last job was designed to guarantee my eligibility. I earned every penny and a whole lot more. Only a fool wouldn’t collect on that which is rightfully owed.

    Beethoven Rules says:
    “Did I forget to mention repealing the 14th amendment?”

    You mean the one the Supreme Court used to justify granting 1st Amendment rights to corporations in the CU v FEC ruling? Well, you just enjoy trying to throw that baby out with the bath water but we’ll stick with the equal protection clause all the same, thanks.


  189. just the bleepn facts says:

    olbytard still doesn’t know what “profit” means, but talks down to everyone’s ignorance like a good little insecure hypocrite? Shokkker!

    olbytard defends racism by saying anyone who criticizes a racist isn’t “open minded”? ROTFL! dumphukkk can’t be fixed…


  190. just the bleepn facts says:

    olbytard, did you miss the point of this thread where the GOP official admits the GOP is using racism? ROTFL!

    how about you “open your mind” to the “fact” that you and your party are a bunch of incompetent dumphukkks? ;)

    Beethoven Rules says:

    Typical southern white male voter, “I gotta vote democrat or people will call me a racist!”

    All people have to do to not be called racists is not be racists. But as Inglis’ situation demonstrates, that results in expulsion from the GOP.

    oblaskins says:

    Couldn’t possibly be that Obama’s economic policies are scaring businesses who have sufferred losses due to the recession away from hiring because they know they are going to be taxed at a higher rate next year, and are going to take huge losses due to Obamacare mandates.

    Nope, it couldn’t. Obama lowered taxes, with a ceiling exception for business, in order to help businesses recover from the massive collapse caused by GOP policies.

    .

    Beethoven Rules says:

    Rich man/bigger tips. Poor man/no tips. Economics 101.

    Economics isn’t based on “tips.” The middle class hasn’t had to beg and scrape for the optional largesse of the wealthy since we were operating under a fuedal system. Apparently that’s either how you think the economy still is, or how you want it to be.

    .

    Beethoven Rules says:

    Negroes and low income families defaulting on mortgages contributed to thos unsavory stew as well.

    That’s right, blame those uppity “negroes” for daring to think they can own a house. You know what – if black folks could take down the Man just by filling out some bad mortgage applications, they would have done it back in the 70’s.

    Never complain about being hit with the “race card” again, racist.

    Beethoven Rules says:

    Evolution is still a theory.

    So is gravity. Go find a nice tall building and jump off it.

    Alas, a Republican with some moral courage and honesty. Our party has floated into never never land. Rep. Ingles is to be commended and I can see why the party worked so hard for his defeat. The party leadership is now made up of a large group of group thinkers who ahve gone off the Republican logical respnses and the vocal ones are starting to sound like pure racism. It just kills them that we have a Black President. They surely shame the good name of our party!
