Dem: Scott Walker 'tightening the noose, literally' around blacks

By Jesse Byrnes

Rep. Gwen Moore (D-Wis.) said Monday that Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, a Republican presidential candidate, is "tightening the noose, literally" around African-Americans.

Moore, a black lawmaker from Milwaukee, made the comment during a phone call with reporters that coincided with Walker campaigning in the early voting state of South Carolina.

Moore said Walker was "literally campaigning around the state, saying you don't want to be like Milwaukee, while at the same time really tightening the noose, literally, around African-Americans."

"He cut his teeth on 'three strikes and you're out' mandatory minimum sentences — really, you know, trail 'em, nail 'em and jail 'em politics ... and so we really have a high incarceration rate," she added.

Moore mentioned Walker's opposition to raising the minimum wage, support for requiring photo IDs to vote and drug testing in order to receive public aid as hurting blacks, according to The Associated Press.

A Walker campaign spokeswoman did not immediately return a request for comment from The Hill. Wisconsin Radio Network contacted another campaign official who declined to respond to what she called “inflammatory and inappropriate comments."

Sounds good to me.
Let's draw that "noose" tighter -- get rid of the Obamaphones, free internet, free this, and free that.

Really, why should any thinking Republican or conservative even bother caring about "what blacks think" any more?
That is posed as an honest, rhetorical question.

If blacks believe that Republicans values are anathema to their "needs", well.... it's the truth. It's "the truth" because American "black culture" has devolved into something which is (in turn) anathema to traditional and American standards of behavior.

If "black truths" have no correlation to traditional Euro-American truths, why should we care?

It will be decades -- if ever -- before the Republicans draw more than 10% of "the black vote" again.
Let them vote for someone else.
It no longer matters.
