Oh please Beto, most intelligent one, please enlighten us! 

Beto O'Rourke says white Americans don't know the full story of slavery, continues to support reparations

....O'Rourke spent Friday at a Baptist church in Beaufort, S.C., where the former Texas congressman met with leaders of the Gullah/Geechee Nation, a culture of coastal slave descendants whose separation from the mainland allowed them to retain much of their African heritage, including a unique dialect and skills such as cast-net fishing and basket weaving...........

..........."White Americans do not know this story," O'Rourke said after a tour of the church's grounds, where he learned that anti-slavery activist Harriet Tubman had lived in the area......

.........We must repair this country from its very founding, kidnapping peoples from West Africa, bringing them here in bondage to literally build the wealth of the United States," O'Rourke said. "The path there, though, has to come through learning and telling this American story with everyone. Then, I think, we define what reparations look like."

What about my ancestors who were Republicans before the Civil War?

 If there are to be any "reparations", then they ought to come from the Democrats who enslaved blacks and not from the Republicans who freed them.  Even more so, since Democrats have promoted policies that have destroyed black families and neighborhoods and made them permanent government dependents.

Yes, that is the true story and perhaps the story the GOP needs to reiterate; unfortunately the DEMS have left that history lesson out of our schools and the story of the angry rich white man has been sold to the Blacks.

[Bill Cipher]

Reparations, if at all, should consist of nothing more than a one-way economy class ticket to a city on the west coast of Africa, a week’s worth of walking-around money, and only if the recipient hands over in exchange a fully completed, signed, notarized State Department Form DS-4080.

Bingo

Robert Francis, effeminate putz, is like fingernails on a chalkboard to me. I cannot understand his appeal.

[skeeter]

For the love of Pete stop with the incessant whining. You can't make me ashamed of who I am.

[jafo2010]

austingirl....I agreed completely on this putz.  He brings nothing to the table.  But then again, the entire Democommie Party is vaccant of substance.  They stand for nothing, are largely treasonous and deserving of the worst, and yet they think they are the real deal.  How anyone bothers to listen to any of them is a mystery to me.

I can't wait to see AOC run for president.  That day will come soon enough, and they will be drooling over this idiot.  Ugggh!

I agree. By the time the bartender runs there will be plenty of illegals to vote for her as well as more ignorant young people.

Wait a minute...isn't he white, and therefore also doesn't understand?

That is, assuming Fake Hispanic = White

As Irish leprechaun Robert Francis would say while gesticulating madly, "Absolutely and I apologize and will try to do better."

[conservativevoter]

Slaves were exported from Africa once upon a time........ by their chieftains and by enemy tribes who sold them to whoever wanted to buy.  As for reparations, who should I write to to get my family's name on the list?  Just poor white folks from Vermont they were; they risked their future generations to come and fight for the black man and for those stolen from their homeland.  Those who are more than willing to spend money on this toadmanship best not forget those who risked it all!!   

What does kissy-kissy Beto know?  How about the Afrika Corps? Medical treatment of black soldiers during the American Civil War?  Abraham Bryan?     *****rollingeyes

I hope he stops flapping his arms around like some fragging bird.  I am going to hurl if he keeps that up.
