If a black congressman were to vote against a Democrat health care reform proposal, could he call himself a black man? According to this source:
The Rev. Jesse Jackson on Wednesday night criticized Rep. Artur Davis (D-Ala.) for voting against the Democrats’ signature healthcare bill.
“We even have blacks voting against the healthcare bill from Alabama,” Jackson said at a reception Wednesday night. “You can’t vote against healthcare and call yourself a black man.”
Brother Jesse apparently thinks that it is somehow inscribed into the very essence of being black that one be a leftist.
When we conservatives label libs and lefties as loons, it is this sort of preternatural idiocy that we have in mind.
