Too Funny: CPAC Minority Outreach Panel

[WhoIsNumberNone]

For me the LOL moment was in the first minute when I saw whose faces were popping up as the V/O speaks the phrase "principled leaders"

If you're not inclined to dedicate a whole hour of your life to watching this turd, you can read the recap here. Believe me, it's worth it.

1. Conservative is when you're Up 30 to Nothing at Half Time....

And the opposing star quarterback is out for the 2nd half
with an injury. This is a done deal, just sit back and watch
the clown show, though comebacks in football do happen,
the odds are not in your favor. This shit will be more fun than
Herman Cain's 9 9 9 Plan.

2. I love the empty chairs

Was one of those for who Clint was talking to at the convention?

3. A real brain trust.

Sorry, but that's about all I can say for this panel. What is truly sad is that ANY minority, black Americans in particular, would even consider to vote for the party of voter suppression...the party that is all for cutting the safety net and rewarding the 1% even further than they are already being paid-off.

I listened to the whole, depressing circus; but I would say that Democrats had better be listening too, because there is a very strong message in this circus that would help ALL politicians to better serve their constituents....minority and not, Democrats and not. We had better be the party that is MORE RESPONSIVE, and not just the party that offers lip-service and "some social safety-net". Not a strong position in this world of mis-information and powerful money-talk.

11. SO, WHAT WAS THE REAL PURPOSE OF THIS PANEL?

Looks to me like it was how to be "sincere" so that you can grow the vote from those of color...they repeatedly had to walk back language of "gifts", ala Rmoney...and what they didn't say was how hard it is to hoodwink people of color when Rethug idiots tried to stop "Obamacare" 50 times and weekly there are several anti-woman and anti-people of color remarks made in congress...that is a really tough set of facts to talk around...overall, I thought it was pretty funny, at times at the level of a SNL skit about politics of the Right. We have met the enemy and by golly, we gotta crème 'em.
