Black Christian nominee making GOP squirm (Black conservatives not welcome in Virginia?)

Some 25 years ago I changed my life.

A visit inside a church opened my eyes to the destructive life I was living, financed by welfare checks generously provided by American taxpayers.

I got off welfare, went to work, got politically active and became a Republican. I didn’t become a Republican because of what the party looked like. I became a Republican because of what the party stood for.

Individual freedom, traditional values, with a view that government’s role is to protect our freedom at home and abroad.

For the next 25 years I had to suffer indignities from liberals who could not fathom that a black could be a Republican because she actually embraced these values.

But now, we have a strange turn of events.

Liberals no longer feel on the run like they did in the 1980s and ’90s. They are running the show, and they know it. So I hear less from them.

Now the indignities come from inside the party that I embraced 25 years ago.

It was always the Democrats that were about interest-group politics.

Now Republicans have somehow concluded that their party’s woes are because it once stood for something. So the game plan is to morph into the Democrats’ stepsister.

Whereas once Republican buzzwords were family and freedom, now it is inclusion. The marching orders, according to the post-election RNC “autopsy” report, is outreach to blacks, Hispanics, gays, women and Asians. It’s now about what the party looks like, not what it stands for.

Christian conservatives, once the answer, are now the problem.

Which gets to Bishop E.W. Jackson.

Bishop Jackson is an outspoken black Christian conservative with a law degree from Harvard. He also was just selected as the Republican nominee for lieutenant governor of Virginia.

"They weren't told to stand down. A 'stand down' means don't do anything," he said.

"They were told that the mission they were asked to perform was not in Benghazi, but was at Tripoli airport."

MSNBC: GOV. GEORGE WALLACE WAS A REPUBLICAN



by JOEL B. POLLAK 12 Jun 2013, 6:05 AM PDT

MSNBC's All Inwith Chris Hayes tried to rewrite history on Tuesday, describing the late segregationist Gov. George Wallace of Alabama as a Republican. Wallace was a Democrat--as were most Jim Crow-era leaders.Hayes
was trying to draw a parallel between the recent National Security Agency surveillance scandals and the extensive efforts by the U.S. government to spy on civil rights activists and black radicals in the 1960s.

The federal government then, too, was governed by Democrats.

As Rich Lowry noted recently, Democrats are often at great pains to blame Republicans for their own sordid racist history. And often, they succeed.

Wallace, who later recanted his racist politics, has been a favored symbol of the left and the media lately to describe Republican opposition to President Barack Obama's agenda, such as his immigration reform policy.
