Cowardly?? No, what's cowardly is to keep our mouths shut for decades, which is what we've been doing. The black population finally gets their black president and achieve the highest office of the land. They don't have any more legs to stand on. All racist remarks are about 98% coming from the blacks who whine day in, and day out, about how they are being denied this and denied that. They can get the hell over it, because as far as I'm concerned, they are irrelevant.

Im just curious...why is there no White Caucus?

Damifino said: "I belive that with a semi-black president,with arab and african roots in both sides of the slave trade, that the subject of black reparations can be addressed again. Although I'm personally against it because my ancestors never owned slaves(and I also have some possible black ancestors so I could be line for cash myself)I would be for reparations if it was agreed that this would settle the issue FOR ALL TIME and criminal prosecution would be in store for anyone making an issue of it again(maybe make it a hate crime). I'm sick to death of hearing about it."

NO. Drop the silly reparation thing. My family has been middle-class through and through, and never owned slaves either. I suppose we're double-damned since a number of headstones in the family plot have the old CSA cross on them, though.

I owe these people nothing.

But I'll be happy to apologize to every african-american I meet, and hand each one of them a dollar of my hard-earned money, IF AND ONLY IF the countries in Africa whose ancestors originally sold them over here into slavery have to apologize and pay up as well.

It's been apparent for some time now this racism business isn't being kept alive by the people they want you to think it is.

I think a lot of people are using this comment thread to get their deep-seated feelings toward black people off their chest...in a very cowardly manner. I've read a lot of comments on here that have nothing to do with what happened in the Georgia House. Stay on task people...I think this proposal is silly and I would have blocked it. How hard was that? That comment "DANs" by that guy Bulldawg should not have been posted. Tell me that doesn't stand for "Dumb A** Ni**ers." Come on Neal, I thought you were policing this thing. If you are the man you claim to be on the air I know you wouldn't use that word. So why would you allow a coward, a terrified baby to post something like that on your website?

If these legislators are so hell-bent on racial equality, then why do they even have a black caucus? No, racsim there!

this is typical of GA governments at the city level as well.. I used to live in the city of Augusta GA where they get NOTHING done because all they do is yell racism at each other, then they get voted out and a new group is elected to yell racist at each other.

they want everything there to be named after james brown.. kind of like everything is peachtree here.

That being said.. this legislation is the most ridiculous waste of the great state of GA's time I have ever seen.. it should be blocked and removed from the roster..

HELLO GA STATE GOVT?? ever heard of the DROUGHT? are you doing anything to work on that?? no? just proposing water rationing.. yea.. thought so.

Is this what our state representatives do all day? Sit around and come up with asinine proposals, resolutions, and recognitions? Do they not realize we are going to have a tax shortfall this year because GA has over 8% unemployment?
What are they thinking?

It's just disloyal and un-American! Why do you hate America, conservatives? How dare you attck Our President in a Time of War(TM)?

Oh, I'm loving this.... (snicker)

DANs

Look everyone; I can understand that white community is frustrated with the continued bombardment of racism being tossed out by the black political community who continues to use victimization as a platform for personal and political success. However the generalizations that are being made about blacks and work ethics are way out of line with reality. Work ethics are a combination of historical cultural influences, education, and social economics – nothing more. Spend sometime living and working in a trailer park in Milledgeville and you will see similar social and work ethics from a white community – I have.

Don't let the door hit you on your way out of the statehouse.

Good riddance.

Now can we get down to some real business, please?

I'll give reparations if they'll give up their protected status in the workplace and actually do some of the work they're paid for instead of disappearing or conducitng personal business on company time, then threatening lawsuits if anyone objects.

We can agree that Obama is a smooth teleprompter guy. His ability to read somebody else's thoughts from left to right and speak them at the same time is really amazing. But "unimpeacheable integrity"??? Come on! The guy comes from Chicago politics, FFS!

I sorry, but this only a very poorly orchestrated and obvious political “crises” created by members of the Georgia Legislative Black Caucus to generate publicity and to try to renew their relevancy in Georgia politics. The caucus members knew that very few elected members of either party would go as far as approve the words "unimpeachable reputation for integrity" and that this would give them the camera time to cry “racism…racism…racism.” Now that they have their platform for their next election, we can move on to other business.

They have whined long enough and I'm tired of hearing how they think that everything needs to revolve around their skintone. I hope those legislators have walked out permanently. It will save us a lot of time dealing with the idiocy that these racist black bigots bring on America each and every day.

Georgia's founders were wise to limit our state legislature's time, it slows and limits the damage they can do. I wish we could do that with DC.

The fact that a black man was elected as president could have been the final nail in the coffin of black-white racial antagonism in America. Unfortunately, it appears that Obama just might set white-black relationships back 100 years. A black conservative might have brought us together. It is so tragic that our first black president is incompetent.

I think that a caucus whose only purpose is to serve ONE race of people is in FACT,.....RACIST in itself.
