THE GOP AGENDA TO DISENFRANCHISE AND SUBJUGATE AFRICAN AMERICANS

How does the GOP (and it's predominately white conservative membership) plan to disenfranchise and limit African Americans' (and even Hispanics) rise (or access) to prosperity and power?

They do what they've always done.

Any organization where African Americans have ownership or power or where African Americans (do well for themselves) in large numbers, the GOP seeks to crush and/or deny that organization or entity. (*)
-[Remember .. the GOP now has a majority in the U.S. House of Representatives, a majority in the Ohio Senate/Ohio House, and they've gained important political positions (governor, attorney general, secretary of state, judicial, etc.) throughout the United States]
-
Here's how:
-
Crush (and demonize) ACORN (which they did with the help of all but 75 House Democrats); ... Crush the Unions, Public Education, (so called) Big Government; Crush President Obama , lie (and create a climate of unreasonable fear and promotion of negative stereotypes) to get back in or stay in power, and *redistrict.

The next step ... don't hire minorities in political positions (see Ohio's Conservative agenda section below), ... and set in place a libertarian agenda which allows businesses (especially banks) to discriminate in serving and hiring.

With African Americans denied loans to start or maintain a business, and businesses legally allowed to discriminate in hiring and serving African Americans, (and the Unions busted) ... the majority of African Americans will have little place to go - except as non union domestic workers (or low wage health care workers, etc), to prison (after all, according to many conservatives, most Blacks are criminals and that's where they belong) or the military.
-
[And don't forget the GOP's desire to repeal the 14th Amendment] The GOP plan is to [in effect] return to the good ole days of slavery. That's why the Tea Party constantly talk about the "founding fathers". This kind of thinking, and the (founding father's focus on acquisition of property), fits right in with corporate America (corporate globalization) and the GOP's plans to dominate the world (and not in a good way). Ex: WATCH


The GOP also has an obsession with voter id laws that impact voting access for seniors and minorities.



Update 8/9/2012 .. Politics Nation on Voter Suppression:




 

What about African American women? ... With no job (or fewer high wage jobs), ... not being able to pay for higher education, ... no or little health insurance and/or health care [if the GOP succeeds in repealing health insurance reform], ... no full reproductive services ... that means more African Americans in poverty and/or prison or in the military to help keep corporate America and the GOP (white conservatives) happy, prosperous, wealthy, and in power.

 The prisons of course would become increasingly more privately owned and the inmates would be increasingly used for cheap labor. [See also section on prisons]

 Unfortunately, poor and a great many middle class white women (including conservative white women) - won't be able to afford college, or receive specialized career or job training because of the GOP's agenda to demolish BIG GOVERNMENT and repeal that health insurance reform act [that makes it possible for low cost college funding], and the GOP's desire to get rid of PELL grants (see also **) and public safety nets; add to that the GOP's much too cozy relationship with Big Business ... you are looking at the demise of the Middle Class. Furthermore, with no access to full reproductive services or good health care ... and with steadily eroding rights, [please research the number of Republicans against women's rights in the workplace, etc] these women will find themselves working at low wages (since the GOP is against a minimum wage), and totally subjugated to men. The Republican men will always point to some women who have some degree of power ... but some of these powerful women would simply be (conservative) paid Madams who essentially "keep the girls in line" and pregnant, even if a 13 year old girl is pregnant because she was coerced to have sex with an adult (after all, you need white conservative males to take or hold the reigns of power).

CONSERVATIVES FAVORITE LIE ABOUT POOR PEOPLE AND THE ECONOMIC CRISIS

Conservatives love to blame government (esp. BIG GOVERNMENT) for everything, ... yes, I said everything (well, I guess you have to throw in "poor people" too). The next time one of them mouths off, tell them to stop running for a government office. Then tell them to stop funding military/defense/spying/military contracting operations all over the freaking place. Finally, tell them to stop every corporate welfare program including the "Bush Tax Cuts".

Saw this great article on Alternet yesterday ....

CONSERVATIVES PUSH ABSURD LIE THAT WALL STREET HUSTLERS WERE INNOCENT VICTIMS ... OF POOR PEOPLE. (by Joshua Holland)
-
"Deregulation allowed Wall Street to build a house of cards on America's mortgage industry, but many conservatives live in a parallel universe in which the banks are blameless.'

October 10, 2010, Joshua Holland's new book, The Fifteen Biggest Lies about the Economy (And Everything Else the Right Doesn't Want You to Know about Taxes, Jobs, and Corporate America).

An excerpt:

-
"Perhaps the most pernicious right-wing lie of late is that the Wall Street hustlers who came close to bringing the global economy to its knees in 2008 were just innocent victims of government-sponsored programs that forced them to lower lending standards in a misguided effort to increase home ownership among the poor (read: dark-skinned).

It’s an alluring story line for those who are ideologically predisposed to blame “inner city” people instead of MBAs in suits roaming the executive suite. It’s also patent nonsense—a Big Lie that has nonetheless become an object of almost religious belief for some on the Right.

Jeb Hensarling, a notably obtuse Republican back-bencher from Texas, wrote that “the conservative case is simple”:

The [Community Reinvestment Act] compelled banks to relax their traditional underwriting practices in favor of more “flexible” criteria. These subjective standards were then applied to all borrowers, not just low-income individuals, leading to a surge in lower-quality loans. . . . Blame should [also be] directed at Fannie [Mae] and Freddie [Mac], and their thirst for weaker underwriting to help meet their federally mandated “affordable housing” goals. . . . This distortion has had seismic consequences as market participants, wrongly believing GSE-touched loans were sanctioned by the government and therefore safe, began to rely on a government mandate as a substitute for their own due diligence.

This tale has everything a conservative could want—Big Government overreach, well-intentioned but out-of-touch liberals causing devastating unanticipated consequences with their social tinkering, and even their favorite bogeyman, ACORN, and other low-income housing advocates that have pushed for increased home-ownership among the poor.

The narrative gained steam with an influential op-ed in the Wall Street Journal by Peter Wallison, a fellow with the American Enterprise Institute (who, according to his bio, “had a significant role in the development of the Reagan administration’s proposals for the deregulation of the financial services industry”). Wallison found that “Almost two-thirds of all the bad mortgages in our financial system, many of which are now defaulting at unprecedented rates, were bought by government agencies or required by government regulations.”

The data shows that the principal buyers were insured banks, government sponsored enterprises (GSEs) such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and the FHA—all government agencies or private companies forced to comply with government mandates about mortgage lending.

The sleight-of-hand here is pretty straightforward. The U.S. government regulates lenders and provides deposit insurance to banks, which means that a large chunk of all home loans—good, bad, and in between—have some connection to a government program. It’s like saying that the government is responsible for pollution because the EPA regulates industrial emissions.

Yet no bank has ever been “forced to comply with government mandates about mortgage lending.” There are no “government mandates,” and there never were. In order to qualify for government-backed deposit insurance—a benefit that banks aren’t forced to accept but enjoy having—the Community Reinvestment Act and similar measures designed to prevent discrimination in lending (to qualified individuals) only encourage banks to lend in all of the areas where they do business. And Section 802 (b) of the Act stresses that all loans must be “consistent with safe and sound operations”—it’s the opposite of requiring that lenders write risky mortgages.

There are no penalties for noncompliance with CRA guidelines. The only “stick” hanging over banks that fail to meet those standards is that their refusal might be taken into account by regulators when they want to open new branches or merge with other financial institutions. What’s more, there are no defined standards for CRA compliance, and within the banking community, the loose guidelines are considered to be somewhat of a joke.

As Sheila Bair, the chairwoman of the FDIC, asked in a December 2008 speech, “Where in the CRA does it say: make loans to people who can’t afford to repay? Nowhere! And the fact is, the lending practices that are causing problems today were driven by a desire for market share and revenue growth . . . pure and simple.”

Fannie and Freddie: Tempted by Easy Profits

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were created by an act of Congress, but they are (or were, until being taken over in the wake of the housing crash) private, for-profit entities whose dual mandate was to increase the availability of mortgages to moderate- and low-income families, and at the same time turn a profit for their shareholders. Fannie and Freddie did end up with a very large portfolio of subprime loans, with a high rate of default, but they didn’t get into the market because the government mandated it. They dived in deep because there were profits to be made as the housing bubble expanded. As Mary Kane, a finance reporter for the Washington Independent, put it:

Neither the Community Reinvestment Act—the law most cited as the culprit—nor other affordable housing goals set by the government forced Fannie, Freddie or any other lender to make loans they didn’t want to. The lure of the subprime market was high yields and healthy profit margins—it’s as simple as that.

Contrary to the conservative spin, University of Michigan law professor Michael Barr told a congressional committee that although there was in fact quite a bit of irresponsible lending in low-income communities in the late 1990s and the early 2000s, “More than half of subprime loans were made by independent mortgage companies not subject to comprehensive federal supervision; another 30 percent of such originations were made by affiliates of banks or thrifts, which are not subject to routine examination or supervision, and the remaining 20 percent were made by banks and thrifts [subject to CRA standards].” Barr concluded, “The worst and most widespread abuses occurred in the institutions with the least federal oversight [italics added].”

That's not to say that millions of Americans didn’t bite off more than they would eventually be able to chew in the housing market. A lot of people looking to turn a quick buck by capturing the booming value of real estate in the mid- to late 2000s bought property with “teaser” loans that offered very low rates for the first few years; the investors assumed that they’d be able to turn a tidy profit before higher interest rates kicked in. Many of those individuals have since found themselves “under water”—owing more on their homes (and investment properties) than they’re worth.

Yet it’s worth noting that most of the experts also didn’t identify the real estate bubble as a problem, even as home prices far surpassed values that could be reasonably explained by the laws of supply and demand. Irrational exuberance was the theme of the day. In 2006, David Learah, the former head of the National Association of Realtors, wrote a book titled Why the Real Estate Boom Will Not Bust—And How You Can Profit from It: How to Build Wealth in Today’s Expanding Real Estate Market. The book made quite a splash at the time.

In 2010, former Fed chairman Alan Greenspan offered a bit of historical revisionism to a House committee investigating the causes of the financial crisis, telling lawmakers, “In 2002, I expressed concern . . . that our extraordinary housing boom, financed by very large increases in mortgage debt, cannot continue indefinitely. . . . I warned of the consequences of this situation in testimony before the Senate Banking Committee in 2004.”

Writing in the Washington Post, Dana Milbank offered a corrective with some of the highlights of Greenspan’s congressional testimony at the peak of the housing bubble. In 2005, Greenspan told lawmakers, “A bubble in home prices for the nation as a whole does not appear likely.” He added, “Home price declines . . . were they to occur, likely would not have substantial macroeconomic implications,” and explained that “nationwide banking and widespread securitization of mortgages make it less likely that financial intermediation would be impaired.”

In English, that last bit meant “Banks won’t get into serious trouble even if things do go to hell,” and we know how well that prediction turned out. If Greenspan could be so wrong and the smart people at the Washington Post and the New York Times couldn’t see this huge, dangerously inflated housing bubble, how was your average couple trying to get a place to live or the small investor looking for a few bucks in rental income supposed to make a rational decision about how much debt to take on? That’s not a defense of individuals who got in over their heads; it’s simply an important bit of context.

The narrative that the real estate crash and the subsequent recession were the fault of borrowers, especially poor and middle-income borrowers—while members of the financial community were innocent victims—is not only revisionism of the worst kind, but it’s an especially egregious lie.

The obvious sin of this claim is that it shifts responsibility for the mess away from those who created it, but what makes it even more disgraceful is that conservatives have long argued that efforts to increase home ownership among low-income families and communities of color was the “free market” thing to do (and have, to some degree, negated the need for a decent social safety net). It was George W. Bush, not Vladimir Lenin, who said in a 2002 speech, “We have a problem here in America . . . a homeownership gap,” and said, “we’ve got to work together to close [the gap] for the good of our country.” This was standard American Enterprise Institute–quality conservative fare.

Blaming individuals is easy—it’s not hard to understand how people could borrow a bunch of cash they were later unable to pay back. The real cause of the housing crash is, of course, a far more complicated tale. And it’s a story that ultimately represents the abject failure of conservative economic mythology."

AND THE LIE AND SMEAR CAMPAIGN TO DESTROY ACORN CONTINUES

And the right-wing and industry campaign to destroy ACORN continues. People, we need you to support ACORN. Donate to ACORN. Email your representatives to refund ACORN. Refuse to do business with Bank of America if it continues to refuse to work with ACORN. [And Bank of America ... haven't you ripped off and hurt enough people ... and we bailed you out?]
-
Our suggestion to ACORN employees ... there is nothing (we believe) that prevents you, as a private citizen, from working for the United States Census Bureau. You've probably already passed the test. The only difference is that you will be paid directly from the government. If the census bureau tries to add some clause (or has added a clause) that says employees of ACORN cannot (as private citizens) work for the Census Bureau, challenge it in court. We would also urge ACORN to get residents in their neighborhoods to sign up to be census workers.

ACORN, we here are on your side.

RACHEL MADDOW MAD AS HELL - EXPOSES SMEAR CAMPAIGNS TO DESTROY ACORN

You've got to know how really, really, really pissed I am at right wing media and conservatives who have been on a witch hunt for years to destroy the almost 40 year old grassroots organization called ACORN. I'm also mad at all but 75 House Democrats who have joined the Republicans in trying to defund ACORN.
-
Folks, these hypocrits in Congress who have joined with the biased and often hypocritical right-wing media (including the conservative Wall Street Journal), have decided to single out an organization that has done more good for low income and moderate income people, despite problems within the organization. An organization, by the way, that has is earnestly trying to address various problems within its Nationwide 1200 chapters.
-
In the meantime, fraud ridden companies like Lockheed Martin, Blackwater [Xe] and Northrop Grumman, continue to receive millions of taxpayers dollars daily. ACORN pales by comparison to the corruption, greed, fraud, horrendous and vile acts and crimes committed by Lockheed, Blackwater, Northrop, and many other contractors. I don't have the time or energy to list the crimes and corruption within the Bush administration [you can read those at The Long Goodbye]. Many of those individuals and organizations implicated, still go unpunished to this day.
-
When are we going to wake up people! Money, power, and greed often corrupt politicians in Washington. ACORN is to be commended that it has lasted this long under the constant scrutiny of conservatives, who unwavered in their mission to destroy an organization that fought and continues to fight for the poor and low income.

Some White Folks Gone Wild

WILL ALL THE RACISTS PLEASE COME OUT OF THE CLOSET

PAT BUCHANAN
Pat being a racist is not really news, but his coming apart at the seams over the nomination of Sonia Sotomayor and her rejection of the New Haven firefighters claim, is noteworthy. Pat really let loose on the Rachel Maddow show July 16th; I think he might have blown a hair plug or two (sorry, my bad).

Wacky Pat seems to think that White men built this nation and they are all under attack by the ubiquitous affirmative action police. If you feel like laughing out loud … now is the time.

THE BIRTHERS
Recently saw some woman screaming some conspiracy theory regarding the authenticity of President Obama’s birth certificate. See, we intelligent people know that this whole “birth certificate thing” is really just a roundabout way of calling the President the “N” word.
Could this group be “Pat Buchanan gone wild”?
WATCH VIDEO


LOU DOBBS (MEDIA MATTERS VIDEO)
Lou Dobbs revealed his racism during Barack Obama’s campaign. Y’all remember his vitriol, his constant rantings about ACORN (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now)? Lou, I never knew anyone could hate poor people so much.

Well, not having succeeded in derailing Barack Obama’s move to the White House, Lou is at his wits end and has joined with the Birthers. Why, oh why, President Obama, don’t you settle this thing by showing us your birth certificate?! Mmm … done that, didn’t stop Lou who just doesn’t understand why the “white guy” didn’t win the presidential election.

About seven months ago, Ted Turner, CNN founder, asked Lou why he always looked like he was about to blow a gasket (my words, not Ted’s). Lou took note about his snarls and growls and it appears he may have been botoxed, or peeled and face-lifted; however, that darn racist thing just won’t go away.


CONGRESSMAN BILL POSEY
Rep. Bill Posey, R-Florida, introduced legislation (H.R. 1503) on March 12, 2009 requiring candidates to produce a birth certificate to be eligible to run in future presidential elections.
Yep, Congressman, we get it … you’re a racist … but it’s not politically correct to say the "N" word, so instead a bunch of your racist Republicans have decided to draft what amounts to "Jim Crow" legislation (in the midst of the worst economic crisis and health care legislation).

Does anyone know if “The Family” (C STREET HOUSE) has any black members? (SMILE) Just some more White Folks gone wild?
