How Inclusive are Republicans?

[Exilednight]

Remember when Jeb Bush ran out his - I forget the relationship - hispanic son-in-law? It was in either 2000 or 2004. They trotted him out to try to show how inclusive they were. What happened to him??
They used him, got the mileage they wanted out of him and then put him back into the darkness in the back of the closet.

First, they trot out Palin. Now they trot out Steele and Jindal...
Desperate and pathetic....

1. They are lost!

They have no idea how to go forward, so they do things like this to try and show they have a "big tent"! They don't understand that the american people aren't buying this show of so called "inclusiveness"! Palin was a joke, as was Jindal's big debut and Steel want's to go after the "hip hop" crowd! Rush says they want Obama to fail, and nobody knows what to do! Newt had the best idea, come up with better policies, but old dipstick Rush slammed that Idea, and says stick with the past tactic's which took this country to where it is today! They should call themselves The New Republican Party, Idiots R Us!

2. Trapped in a web of past lies and Bad Philosophy...they blunder on thinking

the same ole BS could work again...all they need is a fresh spokesperson to carry the message...

They are searchin...searchin for the REAL THING....

But instead....the challenge is futile....

They get to sing "ALL ALONE AM I....."

3. They trot out the new GOP chairman

and Bobby Jindal but the truth is that all their minority members are from South Florida and are all Cuban-Americans. And there are like what--four or five of them-total? Yeah, 99.99% of the party is W-H-I-T-E.

4. There are people that don't want to talk about the substance of inclusion.

They definitely won't vote for people who are solely inclusive and want us to be nice to everybody.

The truth is the right doesn't REALLY need to do anything in order to show their inclusiveness. All they really need to do is pay lip service to inclusion by propping up a self serving first and only player.


Clarence Thomas has kept other Presidents from nominating another black woman or another black man because that quota is checked off the list. If there are only nine slots, aren't there other things people need to be doing?

5. They'll take anyone who meets one of two simple criteria:

You must be either (or both) of the following:

1. A billionaire
2. Completely stupid

6. It wasn't his "son-in-law", it is his son George P. Bush

Jeb's wife is from Mexico.
