No no no, I'm talking about Tillerson. Booker basically sucked him off saying he thinks he will be great... The one "negative" comment he had was he asked if Tillerson wants to ban muslims, Tillerson said no and Booker was like "thank you sir I look forward to your confirmation" also, here is a video of Booker praising sessions work in civil rights acknowledgement in the past http://dailycaller.com/2017/01/10/flashback-cory-booker-praises-jeff-sessions-for-civil-rights-work-video/ gently caress Cory Booker. Seriously. e: The Republicans with DONALD TRUMP as PRESIDENT just took nearly full control of the government, and Booker rolls over like this. Spineless loving hack. I'm going to be so pissed if he's who the Democrats try to put up for 2020. Mixodorian fucked around with this message at 00:10 on Jan 12, 2017 |

People in this thread wanna boost Cory Booker when there are vastly better options like Kamala Harris. Why is that?

Koalas March posted:Michigan used to have a big Klan presence, and some have lingered. Howell, for example, was a sundown town and is still racist AF to this day. A friend of mine got attacked there actually. The North actually has more sundown towns then the South due to the way economics worked across the South.

Cease to Hope posted:sessions has an incredibly racist record, including specifically targeting black people for voter suppression I've read up a little on a history of iffy voter ID stuff, but as the AG what is it that he is empowered to do to gently caress with the black vote, specifically, and ethnic minorities more broadly? Or is it more a matter of using his discretion to not pursue challenges against more lovely laws?

Who the gently caress is boosting Corey Booker? And that link of course he loving did. He's not going to make to make the presentation of a senate award to those who marched from Selma into a way to politically attack someone who was one of the sponsors of the award. He didn't say anything praising Sessions other than what was essentially I'm working with him to do this thing. Didn't praise anything about his civil rights work(of which there is none) just said that he was one of the co sponsors.

Dexo posted:Who the gently caress is boosting Corey Booker? "who is boosting Cory Booker" ... "Why would he dishonor noted racist Jeff Sessions because he helped him with the awards for civil rights heroes?" This was mainly against negromancer who seems to think Booker is good for whatever reason. Booker is the exact type of democrat I don't want. Being the adult in the room means god drat nothing when police get paid vacations for killing people like us. Why we still gotta play this game? With Kamala Harris in Andre Carson, I really don't want to see anyone supporting Booker's flakey rear end. Please watch his interaction with Tillerson if you want to understand my extreme disdain.

I work in finance so all white/indian/asian people and I'm always having to bite my tongue. Big difference between a recall election and getting fired for slapping your Trump loving coworkers tho. Thankfully (sort of) 2020 is a ways off. I hope whoever runs isn't anyone the mainstream is expecting to right now. Booker did pretty well in the Sessions hearing yesterday but blew that good will with how he kissed Tillerson's rear end today, at least to me. e: ^^^^^ Mo Brooks is the stupidest motherfucker and there better not be any capitulation by any democrat to anything he pushes in the coming years.

I posted about our black sumo Wakaichiro a few months ago, and he is now fighting in his first tournament at the lowest level. Quoting from the Sumo Thread:Rigel posted:For those wondering about Wakaichiro (kid from Texas with a glorious afro), he looks solid. He's 1-1, but that loss was against (relatively speaking given the division) a pretty good opponent and was competitive. He looks pretty good as a first timer, fighting a relative veteran in that second match. I do wonder how they are going to turn his afro into a top knot once he moves up the ranks a bit. Sumo has had its fair share of bullying issues amongst the wrestlers, doubly so for non-Japanese. I do hope he can push past that and have a great career. I will keep you all updated on this weird rear end sport that like 10 goons watch.

On the subject of an earlier thread topic of white people stealing music from black people, I heard on the radio during my commute that Don Henley (old white guy that should have retired during one of the last times The Eagles retired) is planning to put together and release an R&B album.
