Default It's "OK" to be a Bigot, if you're Black.

If anyone can get away with being a Racist, it's Liberal Blacks...


Nagin Suspects a Plot To Keep Blacks Away

By Hamil R. Harris
Washington Post Staff Writer
Saturday, March 17, 2007; A07



New Orleans Mayor C. Ray Nagin has suggested that the slow recovery and rebuilding of New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina -- which has prevented many black former residents from returning -- is part of a plan to change the racial makeup and political leadership of his and other cities.

"Ladies and gentlemen, what happened in New Orleans could happen anywhere," Nagin said at a dinner sponsored by the National Newspaper Publishers Association, a trade group for newspapers that target black readers. "They are studying this model of natural disasters, dispersing the community and changing the electoral process in that community."

Nagin's remarks Thursday night recalled the controversy stirred up by his prediction in a Martin Luther King Jr. Day speech in 2006 that, despite the evacuation of thousands of black people in the wake of Katrina, New Orleans would once again become a "chocolate city." The mayor later apologized for the comment, which had infuriated many whites and African Americans.

Nagin, who won reelection last May over Lt. Gov. Mitch Landrieu, referred obliquely to the "chocolate city" comment at the dinner and suggested that his assertion that New Orleans would once again be a majority-black city had made him a political target.

"Everybody in America started to wake up and say: 'Wait a minute. What is he doing? What is he saying? We have to make sure that this man doesn't go any further,' " Nagin told a room full of black newspaper publishers and editors at the Capital Hilton.

Referring to Landrieu, who is white, as "the golden boy," Nagin suggested his chance at reelection in the mayoral race had seemed slim because "they dispersed all of our people across 44 states with one-way tickets."

"They thought they were talking about a different kind of New Orleans," Nagin said. "They didn't realize that folks were awake, that they were paying attention."

i agree there is a double standard when it comes to Liberal Blacks and white folks.... But issn't there a double standered with everyithing the LIBBS say?

As far as Nagin... the money has been allocated... Neo orleans has not been recovering because he has not been leading....

I am afraid Blanco and Nagin have been purposly deleaying the recunstruction in order to create another Race argument for the 2008 election.. But what do you excpect from libbs

excpect from libbs? Neo orleans. what Matrix sequel is that out of?

You are doing much with your posts to further the trailer park stereotype of conservatives.

There are many conservatives that have intelligent comments to make.
Don't constantly fuck them up with your stupidity.

Mr. Nagin has a major problem with his own side when a Liberal rag such as the Washington Post starts taking him to task...

That's funny calling the Washington Post a liberal rag.

Without a doubt H/T, our perspectives in Life are at polar opposites.

Take care.

I agree with you there. I think fair and balanced can be found on http://www.democracynow.org/ That left wing is what's found at http://www.pacifica.org/stations/ and that right wing stuff is what's found at the Washington Post and NY Times. What you read I'd probably consider about the same as the other tabloids found at the check out counter.

I still read Books H/T. Written by the very people that lived thru the trials and tribulations of their generation. Try it sometime...

I do, it's amazing how my voice is echoed by people who have first hand experience.
  1. Conservatives Without Conscience
  2. Fiasco: The American Military Adventure in Iraq
  3. Against All Enemies
You might want to read some of these, not Bill O'Reilly's crap.
