What do you think telling a politician telling a black audience that Republicans want to put them back in chains means? Do a Ctrl+F search for a little common sense and intellectual honesty. 2 1 Link to comment

If you're truly being intellectually honest, you'll provide the context for Biden's comment and not spin it to fit an agenda. 2 Link to comment

Do a Ctrl+F search for a little common sense and intellectual honesty. Intellectual honesty? It's called a metaphor my guy. Specifically in this instance, it's a metaphor for race-based inequality, since the quote is in regards to Wall Street and rolling back financial regulations. In fact, the article even says that. She said on MSNBC that Biden was "using a metaphor to talk about what's going to happen" if Romney is elected and financial reform is repealed. and "we have no problem with those comments" in their full context. If you actually think (I'm getting the feeling that you're just a troll) that this had anything at all to do with a message that Republicans want to bring back slavery, plantations and segregation... well, I gave you way more credit than you deserve. 3 Link to comment

It's pretty rich to hear Democrats constantly complain about race baiting, wolf whistles, and coded language and then argue that telling a black audience Republicans want to put them back in chains is some sort of metaphor related to economic justice. 1 Link to comment

I’m unclear how pointing out obvious and ridiculous hypocrisy is ceding the field. For a discussion board, there are surprisingly few people here who want to actually discuss anything. #DISAPPOINTING 1 Link to comment
