Judy calls African Americans "they" says she is a "sistah" pass this 1 on

[wndycty]

This is from the Bud Billiken Parade, Judy obviously does not get it. As an African American I can tell you it does not speak well for her when she walks around calling us "they" she might as well as called us darkies. Spread this one on!

Here is footage of Rod in the same parade pressing the flesh as he walked with a ton of supporters, later in the video you will see Judy riding alone in her car:

1. Jeez.....

That woman is so damned annoying.

[wndycty]

2. How have you been?

:kick:

3. I am okay...moved to Forest Park at the end of April.

I miss the Far North Side, but life goes on. Did you know that my mother died right after Christmas last year and we (my sister and I) sold the house? At least I moved from Jan Schakowsky's district to Danny Davis'. Not a bad trade-off, but I miss the lake breezes.

How are you doing? I imagine you are busy with the re-election.

4. Yeah just got back from Springfielf for Governor's Day. . .

. . .as always a lot of fun.

5. Was there a good turnout for that?

I got home from work in time for the weather. :evilfrown:

And Daley even came for Democrat's day yesterday. First time in a long time!

[wndycty]

6. Yes, excellent turnout and even Michael Madigan showed up . . .

. . .it was kind of interesting with Alexi being there.

12. half the crowd was from Chicago.

Still, it was nice to have the Mayor of Chicago come down for the fair again. His Dad used to come every year.

9. I'll say!

Very unpolished. Her voice makes my skin crawl.

7. More significant is this obvious attempt at pandering to racial biases:

"The Republican candidate said she would cut $400 million in "pork" during the next four years, identifying projects such as $30,000 allocated for a hip-hop dance class in Chicago..."

There's only one reason to bring up a project that costs such a tiny amount of money. She was pandering to a downstate audience. It is the equivalent of Reagan's fairy tails about black welfare queens in limos.

[Bridget Dooley]

8. Damn!

That is AWFUL about the dance class! Incredibly transparent.

I think it's kind of funny that JBT thinks of herself as a "sistah". Funny, like her. I was thrilled when she won the primary because I knew she'd be wildly entertaining.

Rod mixes so easily with people of all ethnicities in all communities. He reminds me of Clinton in that way.

[mopinko]

10. he's a wonk, too

the way he goes on and on sometimes, you know the guy loves his job. that reminds me of bill, as well.

[DanCa]

11. What is she thinking? (nt)

[AX10]

13. A Republican is Republican (aka: racsist).
