That's because you've run out of insults, domini

Then you play black police. Words fail me.

Um. where in any of my posts domini have I said that I AM or EVER WAS a registered Republican? You know abcolutely nothing about me, except that I'm black. And I'm not the one playing the black police, you are. I allow you to think and sign off on anyone''s bullshit that you desperately need to buy into; i only ask the same right.

Oh, and the old "neoconservative" tag for anyone that does not tow the liberal party line? Sure, I'll wear it if it will make you happy. You can gladly have my place in the "I'll stick with folks that have nothing but platitudes for me" sweepstakes.

Star Parker, huh? Well, she's a lousey writer and a homophobe. Tony Brown? Been where you're trying to get. And I am so waiting for you to rip off answers to my questions: what have the Democrats really done for Black America in the last 40 years, AND why are yhou so comfortable or have so little self-esteem that you do not demand pay-off from the folks tha insist upon your unquestioning loyalty?

It is now for Democrats to earn the 90% of the votes they receive from us. And of that "i'm doing this and that for our black folks..." Um, you're supposed to do all of that. What do you want from me - a cookie for doing what you're supposed to do? I'm comfortable doing my part for my community and I don't have to do the get-down-for-the-community-from-Good-Times speech to prove my "race loyalty", which you have deemd imperative - silence to our so-called "white liberators", or a fascimile.

There is community global warming. Our real issues (legal abortion, in my opinion ain't one of them-it cannot come before achieving basic heath care in our communities) need to be dealt NOW. You're comfortable with white liberals and Democrats setting your community and your peoples agenda. Good fo you. And you and anyone else hooked into their bullshit will die from their continuing benign neglect.

Tony Brown, Starr Parker, Larry Elder, Jonathan McWhorter. All the black folks that don't agree with you in lockstep, well, I guess we're all Uncle Tom sellouts in your book. Or am I more like Al Sharpton, Louis Farrakhan, Sharazad Ali? Yoy have veered back and forth from calling me out as an Uncle Tom one minute and a Mau-Mau black supremacist. Pick one already, will ya'?

You'll "get it" only when you demand and receive proper payoff from those who take you for granted because you demand nothing. You're in their back pocket. You're too lazy to look or create an alternative.

I did read your response

you might want to read what I actually wrote before "responding." You'd save yourself a lot of worthless typing.

I just thought your lead in was full of shit and historically and painfully inaccurate.

Time for the Pro-Choice Movement ot get a new mission statement

Perhaps is the organized pro-abortion groups, including NOW, NARAL and Planned Parenthood, would actually get new mission statements to include protecting the full rights of women to INCLUDE mothers (both married and single) as well as women seeking abortion, then maybe we'd vanquish the draconian laws that pop up under state- and somethimes county- and municipal rights.

All of those groups would be REAL forces to be reckoned with had they not taken the one-and-not- the-other dogma of being all about aborton rights, BUT also about women who want to keep the "zygotes" that they begome pregnant with.

Imagine if these groups had leaned on Congress AND every single lawmaker in the country to provide free health care for children, better schooling starting with the head start program for ALL, a nice stipend for every woman when the baby is born (like in most of the EU), paid family leave for up a full year. "Yep, you want us to have babies, then the government subsidize us in every way possible. Oh, and free prenatal from the time the pregnancy test turns blue.

Yep, if those so-called feminists crones had taken up that mantle, the anti-abortionist supporting lawmaker would have gone the way of the DoDo bird with the 1988 elections. An federally funded abortion is a lot cheaper than that Pork.

But if you only really care about a certain class of women (white and middle), and the only time a mother's rights matter is when you believe you can use those threatened rights as cannon fodder, well...
