Tom Tancredo is using all kind of code words in his speech I'm posting two videos. I doubt the crowd understood what he really means by a literacy test.

[YOUTUBE]<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/u27YopczkF4&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/u27YopczkF4&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>[/YOUTUBE] When he talks about people that cant spell vote he is saying stupid black people. And when Tom say our country he is talking about the white culture I had a white republican explain that code word to me. Go back home of course referring to blacks to go back to Africa or any other minorities they don't consider true Americans. So it's a lot of code words I'm posting this video for all of my black republican friends that don't believe theres a lot of racist in their party.
This guy is a douche bag. Where does he get the nerve? They should start off by sending his parents back to Italy then.
He's known around here as kind of a nutjob. Immigrants is one of his pet subjects and he's got more than a few he will go off on in addition to that.
Yes it does, and Tom the idiot is the son of italian immigrants they were mistreated as well when they came to this country, how soon one forgets history ? italians sometimes aren't considered white they are called "the niggers of Europe" some of them are people of color I've met girl of sicilian roots from alabama who told me her folks were treated as colored during segregation many years ago. Right wing crap isn't welcome here so why don't you take a hike you white fag
I'm not White, right wing or a Fag, and Tom Tancredo's politics or roots are not important to me. I haven't even watched this video. Tom Tancredo ATTACKS black voters is a misleading subject title, code words or not.
I think you are reading too much into this. This guy is obviousily talking about democrats or liberals. He doesn't care for color.
Did I state your name xoxo in my previous post ? Are you 100% sure I was addressing you ? Yes? No? Maybe? The notion "sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me" Is all bullcrap yes words can hurt people and can cause them to be brainwashed where they vote against their vested interests, You and those of your ilk need to be placed in re-education camps, you also need to read an excellent book titled What's the matter with Kansas ? By Thomas Frank the right wing morons have been brainwashing the masses in America for decades it's about time some smart people stop them in their tracks before this great nation becomes another Mexico. A banana republic for republicans LOL The second richest man in the world lives in Mexico, Carlos Slim Helú a telecom titan. It's important to ask how a country so poor where many of their citizens are so desperate they are fleeing en masse to the north risking their lives [as matter of fact many of them have lost their lives trying to cross the border illegally] others are working for the drug Mafia How can that country produce the second riches man in the world after Warren Buffet ? It doesn't take a genius to figure that something went terrible wrong in their country for one thing they have no middle class Millions and Millions of poor people and handful of super rich [that is mexico] The reason India china and Brazil are doing far better economically than Mexico is because they have growing middle class. Mexico's GDP plunged more than 7% in 2009 sad but true go and Google it. The government serves the rich and the rest can eat dirt nobody cares. Americans need to be awakened and put on notice that republicans will turn this nation into another mexico they prefer serving the rich over the working men and women. Attacking someone or group of people doesn't always have to be physical it can also be verbal, I have attacked you in an underhanded way it's the same tactic used by tom tancredo and right-wing republicans towards AA there is no love lost between black people and the right wing republicans everyone knows it. It is not cool to be so brazenly racist these days even to those with low IQ won't accept it so the good ole boys have to use code words because they can't help it. They are what they are.. I have been observing you on this message board and yes you are right wing nutcase please have a backbone atleast I will have more respect when you are honest, you aren't fooling anyone by denying what you believe in and that is not gonna change anything......OK ? THANK YOU !!! MEXICO [youtube]opjFDJ5tDPg[/youtube]
I'm sure, everyone who has read this thread is certain that “yes it is” was a response to my post and none prior. Save your energy for someone who actually believes the things you ascribe to me, and if you ever truly want to change a right wingers mind I suggest not telling them they need to be put in a re-education camp. Your response, Rachel Maddow, Tom Tancredo followers and the like are all part of this delusion that these parties (left and right wing) actually mean something. Well, they don't mean anything to me and I'm not even going to get into the why or (excluding the next paragraph) espouse some political world view beyond the scope of this thread, that has nothing to do with Tancredo's words. I watched the video and Tom Tancredo mentioned the 9-12 movement. Well, I support the 911 movement and believe it was a false flag operation. I voted for Cynthia Mckinney in 08 and Nader in 00. In the thread What would have happen if TEA party took over? I stated the I supported Ron Paul for president until he dropped and I attend/donated to tea party events. I supported those candidates for a number of reasons....party affiliation be damned It''s obvious he's alluding to Mexican illegal's, especially in the second video and while the methods he described where used against Black people and Maddow's piece focused on that, it's clear that by him saying spell Vote or say it in “English” that he meant a civics test for non english speaking immigrants. Granted some of those could be Black, but knowing Tancredo's views on Mexicans, I'm guessing they were more the focus. Does this mean Tancredo isn't against Black people, of course not, but these words were more an "attack" on Mexicans/Latino's . I haven't really espoused a wing and my opinions are not fixed. You've seemingly taken some of my other words or opinions and formed some personality type. If you think my responses make me right wing than so be it. My party or wing doesn't matter, only what I say on a particular subject does, arguing against my perceived wing or party gets into ad hominem land. That might be how they do it on cable news like Rachel Maddow and Faux. Respect me or not, I'm not going to play some right wing pundit every time some political shit pops off in this forum just so I can ease sensibilities and let everyone know where I'm standing. I thought the title "Tom Tancredo ATTACKS black voters" was inaccurate, and I certainly thought that after seeing the first video in which he didn't physically nor verbally attack Black voters and in the second video in which he directly mentions Mexican organizations (unless reconquista is some new code word for Black people) that his words were about Mexicans or illegal immigrants. Your lengthy paragraph and youtube video speak to that. Do I agree with what he said? No. Barack Obama was elected by the smarter people in this country (The smartest voted for neither) and if a civics test came down to who could vote, Obama would probably win. Do I think the borders should be guarded and the immigration laws be enforced? Yes. The “disproportionate” wealth in Mexico that might soon be mirrored in this country has nothing to do with the mainstream left or right. If the elite decide to further bankrupt the middle class in this country, then they will continue to do it unabated....
