GOP Gone Wild: Christine O'Donnell Indicates that Barack Obama is a Communist

Did you see former GOP senatorial candidate Christine 'I'm Not a Witch' O'Donnell on CNN earlier this morning? She tried that old GOP line that Obama is a communist ... and Soledad O'Brien wasn't having it. Here is the full interview on video:

I think that Christine O'Donnell may be the dumbest politician in the country. I won't be surprised to see her up in Missouri endorses Rep. Akins next. What is your take on Christine O'Donnell?

Tea Party Activist Christine O'Donnell Runs Away From CNN Interview with Piers Morgan

Christine O'Donnell is a good example of what we can expect from Tea Party politicians. I suspect that Gov. Rick Perry may have a similiar moment at some point in his fledgeling presidential campaign. Tea Party folks don't much care for it when they are asked about 'uncomfortable truths'.

Here is video of the O'Donnell retreat from her CNN interview. Evidently, she didn't want to talk about some of the more radical policy views of O'Donnell on issues like gay rights.





Christine O'Donnell wanted the focus on the interview to be on her book, 'Troublemaker'.

More GOP Racism: Why Would Any African American Join the Republican Party?

Politics is rather boring this year in Ohio. We don't have the same excitement that is occurring in other parts of the nation.

• In Delaware it appears that a GOP civil war is about to break out now that Christine O'Donnell is their candidate for senator.
• The GOP candidate for New York governor, Carl Paladino, is a guy who sends out racist and pornographic emails to his GOP buddies. He's also made controversial statements such as teaching welfare recipients job training and "personal hygiene" while housing them in converted prisons and calling outgoing Gov. David Paterson a drug addict.
• South Carolina heavy-hitters in the Republican Party hosted 'The Southern Experience' at the Country Club of Charleston a few days ago. SC Gov. Mark Sanford and SC Senate President Glenn McConnell (shown in the above photo) hosted this event in which the only Black people present were dressed up as slaves.

I have never voted for a Republican candidate on a state or national ballot.  The policies, actions and culture of the Republican party never appealed to me. I don't feel any different about the Tea Party. They seem like a bunch of folks who strongly believe in white privilege and who've never interacted on a professional or personal basis with a Black person in America.

I don't like the way that the GOP and Tea Party have taken such a personal and pre-meditated hatred of our nation's first Black president and turned it into a 'Just Say No' or 'birther' or 'socialist' mantra over the past year. The GOP leadership is now calling our president a 'con' and a man with a 'Kenyan, anti-colonial world view'. What kinda shyt is that?

I try to stay open-minded. I include A Political Season and Booker Rising on my RSS-feed so that I don't miss any blog postings that either Aaron or Shay put on their blog.  However, I still don't have a clue why any person of African descent would become a member of the Republican Party.  It must be lonely to be a Black Republican. If the African Americans in Alaska weren't fooled by Sarah Palin ... why should those of us in the lower 48 be fooled?

Can any of y'all explain it to me?

How can a Black Republican have so much self-hate in them that they would want to be associated with these racist wackos who have no love for people of African descent living in America?
