“Should I Worry About Becoming a Slave Again?”…

I know everyone’s mad at Whoopi Goldberg for asking that question, but she was simply articulating a common fear that people have about strict constructionism, and it’s a fear that right-wingers must address, particularly if we are going to assert……

What Whoopi doesn’t understand is that McCain by vowing to nominate strict constructionists is the candidate that would best protect people from slavery. If judges are allowed to legislate from the bench who’s to say some strange twist of fate wouldn’t have judges saying the 13th amendment is part of a “living document” and subject to interpretation.

Exactly! Only trouble is, it’s aready been done.

When Roe v Wade ruled that the 14th Amendment applies only to “legal” persons, it thereby excluded Blacks and returned them to the Dred Scott definition – human livestock. The Thirteenth Amedment doesn’t ban involuntary servitude of livestock. Thus, without the 14th Amendment meaning “biological persons”, Black slavery is still permissible since Blacks are Constitutionally defined as livestock.

There were 100 years of legal precedent that were undone when Roe v Wade ruled that the 14th amendment doesn’t apply to merely “biological” humans such as Blacks (as define by the SCOTUS in Dred Scott and never Constitutionally redefined).

Whoopi Goldberg is a five-star imbecile, a glittering jewel of colossal ignorance. What Whoopi doesn’t realize is that she’s already a slave. She’s a slave to liberalism. She is a slave to ignorance. She is an arrogant, condescending pseudo-informed and educated person who has no clue that she’s already a slave. So don’t worry about it, Whoopi. You’re already a slave.

John and Cindy’s appearance on this illiterate show only gave it credibility it doesn’t deserve. This is an excellent example as to why, as a women, I always hung out with the guys.
A more perfect example of trailer trash was never exhibited. Add that personification of trailer trash, P. Anderson with the sticky eyelashes and it’s a trailer park, not a TV show.

The harpies of The View once again live up to their stone ignorance but, McCain’s apology should have been rightly stated as; “I’m sorry you don’t understand the meaning of the term ‘strict constructionist’ where in fact slavery was abolished through an amendment to our Constitution which are acts of our other two branches of government and certainly not through judicial activism which violates our separation of powers but, I appreciate the opportunity you just gave me to clear that up for anyone else who also didn’t know.”

However, this was not McCain’s response.

What whould make her say such a thing, even rhetorically? I used to like her just as I used to like Oprah once upon a time. Why do African Americans need to spend so much time dwelling on race? Even when they are successful way beyond average, it seems to take front and center. Surely there’s more to their lives than that?

There are those who are ignorant, and then there are those who are willfully deceptive. Which one do you suppose Whoopi is? Does she really believe that the president/ vice president can overturn Roe v Wade by fiat, or decree slavery to be legal again? That would be stupendous ignorance, which I find highly unlikely.
More likely, she is being willfully deceptive, playing to and leading the truly ignorant to score cheap political points.
How classy.

She’s a slave to ignorance and stupidity. Ron White said you cant fix stupid and I’m inclined to agree with him.

You want a Constitutionally-protected right to put a fork in your baby’s brains, then pass a damned Amendment.

That’s what the Burger court did in ’73 – they just cut out the middle man.

1) Whoopi is not stupid.

2) Whoopi’s question, on the other hand, scaled new heights of inanity

3) A few more questions like that, and I will have to rethink point #1

No “groan” – McCain did exactly what grown men are supposed to do whenever they come face-to-face with obvious slobbering nutcases: Tell them they “have an excellent point,” then back away… slowly.. and live to fight another day, while coming across as somebody even Joy Behar might even invite to her next dinner dinner party. Has this interview been on the front pages, and at the top of the hours, on all the major papers and cable channels as proof of John McCain’s desire to enslave the Negroes again, or to “force women back into alleys with cothangers?”

No, and that’s just as Steve Schmidt designed it.

Carry on…

John McCain doesn’t own a plantation so why would he be interested in people becoming slaves?

Besides, it is cheaper to let ‘brown people’ sneak in and work cheap, than it is to turn ‘black people’ into slaves.

Because he’s running for President and there’s some benefit going on these stupid shows because they have large audiences of the kind of voter McCain hopes will be attracted by his choice of Palin.

You never were a slave Whoopi. Stop denigrating the challenges faced by millions of people in the past who were truly slaves–and even some who face it today in those wonderfully cultures you lefties like so much–Communism and Islam.

You, Whoopi, are a rich, foul-mouthed, washed-up, coddled, ignoramus.

I swear if your not a lefty liberal, or for that matter jewish it seems your not going to have a job no more in that industry….

you want to know what is really strange about that?
the lefties are the ones that would throw Israel under the bus if they get the chance, but for some reason the Jews like them and support them. Why they support each other in hollywood is baffling.
