Perhaps this is a case of actions speaking louder than words. Tashmere Send a noteboard - 12/01/2010 02:29:48 AM


Still though do you actually believe that a if a republican had said what Reid said he would get a pass? You shouldn't because them democrats themselves are saying that Reid's stance on social programs is why they are OK with it. If McCain had said the same thing would he get a pass? Would Palin? Hell would Steele even get a pass?

Whatever Lott said it doesn't change the fact the black leadership is openly saying that support of their political agenda is proof of racial tolerance and opposing it makes you suspect. I guess you call it extortion instead of double standard but that seems harsh to me. Still boils down to support the social agenda or risk being branded a bigot.


I tend to use a person's actions to interpret the possible meanings and motives of their words. Especially when those words pertain to me. I will give someone the benefit of the doubt if their past actions warrant it.

How about you? Do you do that? Many things people say can be ambiguous. Can you think of situations at work where something similar has happened?
