Shut the fuck up, it's obvious what Smilin' Joe was saying.

Bingo - and so did the crowd!

Shut the fuck up, it's obvious what Smilin' Joe was saying.

Perhaps it would do you some good to learn American History and not some liberal revisionist version that never happened or which is glossed over.  This is where you and the liberals converge.  

I don`t care what Joe said as its not offensive to anyone and if you REALLY examine the issue and apply it to American History as it happened, his comment makes zero sense anyways.

Yet, you and the other know nothings are all Butt Hurt over it.

"People at the North are disposed to be incredulous when they hear of white slaves at the South: and yet a little reflection would convince them not only that there must be such slaves under the present system, but that in process of time a large proportion of the slaves must be as white as their masters."

Blah blah blah, more of your pseudo-intellectual bullshit. Indentured servants, black slave owners........ Yeah I well aware of American History, the problem is your incessant need to justify stupid shit the dems say, when everyone knows exactly what he is getting at. But lets do a history discussion, and wow, Binden looks even more like a fucking moron

So again SHUT THE FUCK UP!

I`m 100 percent sure he is not.  But if we were to actually take his words and apply it to the true history of the South, then they do apply across the board to whites and blacks.  He didn`t know this as most don`t.  Most enjoy the Liberal and untrue version of American History instead of what really happened.






On January 30, 1864, Harper’s Weekly printed an engraving of a photograph, entitled “Emancipated Slaves, White and Colored,” depicting three adults and five children who had been brought north from Louisiana by Colonel George H. Hanks and set free by Major General Nathaniel P. Banks. The group made a series of public appearances and were photographed as part of a campaign to raise funds for public schools for freed slaves, the first of which was established by Major General Banks in October 1863. The hope was, writes Kathleen Collins in “Portraits of Slave Children,” that “these enigmatic portraits of Caucasian-featured children” would galvanize “Northern benefactors to contribute to the future of a race to which these children found themselves arbitrarily confined” (207). The “white slaves” depicted in the engraving were described by the editor of Harper’s as being “as white, as intelligent, as docile, as most of our own children” (66).

Right, Biden is a moron at times.  But if anyone feigns outrage over this, this only gives credence to the bullshit version of American History and not the way it really happened.

Don't get bogged down in his BS, odds are these "Caucasian-featured children", were the offspring of the white slave owner and black slaves.

A petition to free a white slave

Petition of Gurdon Deming to the North Carolina General Assembly, December 1800. Records of the General Assembly, Session Records, North Carolina Division of Archives and History.

To the Honorable the General Assembly of the State of North Carolina.
The Petition of Gurdon Deming a citizen of the county of Cumberland Humbly sheweth, that he is the owner of a Certain woman named Lucy and her child Laura Who were represented to be slaves and as such purchased by your petitioner –
That he has reason to believe and doth believe from diligent inquires made, that the Said Lucy ought not to be held in bondage. Your petitioner is aware that legal proof cannot be made of the fact, yet your petitioner is fully satisfied, that the Said Lucy is the daughter of a free white Woman – that to conceal this circumstance, so as to protect the reputation of the real mother, Lucy at her birth was placed in charge of a woman slave of one John Selph – Your petitioner learns from a number of the most respectable citizens of Fayetteville, that it was always the intention of Mr. Selph to manumit the Said Lucy at his death – but the death of Mr. Selph being sudden and his estate providing insolvent, his intentions were frustrated – Lucy was sold by his administrator and she was purchased at a mere nominal Sum by Several Gentlemen with the View to Carry out the wishes of Mr. Selph; Owing however to the insolvency of the person delegated to bid her off, occurring soon after, She was again Sold and has subsequently fallen with into the hands of your petitioner –
The History of Lucy is a romantic one, and if your petitioner could detail it without giving offense and bringing to light, what has long been forgotten and thereby do injury perhaps to persons now residents of a distant state, he is certain your honorable body would not hesitate a moment in assisting him in doing simple justice to this injured Girl, by authorizing her immediate Emancipation –
Lucy in colour is perfectly White, and cannot be distinguished from the purest of the race, her associations have been distinct from the coloured population, and her whole demeanor that of the whites to which class she evidently belongs.
In consideration of these things your petitioner humbly prays your honorable body to pass a law authorizing the Emancipation of the Said Lucy, and her child Laura, And as in duty bound, your petitioner will ever pray.
Gurdon Deming

"When I was a boy, 'recalled Waters McIntosh, who had been a slave in Sumter, South Carolina, 'we used to sing, 'Rather be a N I G G E R than a poor White Man,' Even in slavery we used to sing that.' Mr. McIntosh's remarks reveal...that the poor whites of the South ranked below blacks in social standing...slaves felt unbridled contempt for lower‑class whites...Frederick Douglas opened his famous Life and Times with an account of Talbot County, Maryland, which he said housed a 'White population of the lowest order..

The many (Negro) ex‑slaves who recalled the lot of the small farmers and Poor Whites as Hard and Even as Bad as Their Own knew what they were talking about...The slaves saw enough abject poverty, disease, and demoralization among the Poor Whites...to see their own condition under Old Massa's protection as perhaps not the worst of evils."

Thats precisely my point.  By 333366 and fellow Republicans making this an issue (when it is not one according to Historical Record), you are further casting black people as the sole victims and that just wasn`t the case.  You guys oughta drop this issue, unless you want to continue the liberal agenda of victim hood.

Ummmm....who claimed they were the sole victims?

None of this pointless posting of yours negates the fact that Biden's boneheaded remarks were aimed squarely at black people, not white people or Native Americans.

Oh please - its an issue because Biden was race baiting and trying to stir the crowd - not some historical debate.

that was palin doing what palin always does - trying to 'call for' something that would be the next obvious move.

She 'called for' Rahm to be fired after he said some shit.  So if obama fires him, to her cast of idiot followers, she "wins"?

Either way, hilary on the ticket would be romneys WORST NIGHTMARE.  And 33, you fuckin know it.

you want obama/biden on this ticket.  Hilary would make Ryan look like a fuckin schoolboy in the debates - you know it dude.  she has been running the world on and off for 20 years, and can speak firsthand on shit all over the word for the last 25+ years on int'l scene.

You'd better PRAY hilary isn't on the ticket.  Obama destroys Romney then.

By you and others harping on this issue though, it only serves to put another coat of paint and gloss over the true History of America in the South.  Biden is a moron of course and he had no clue what he was saying, but when you actually apply it to the actual history (which I am sure Biden knows nothing about) his comments are extremely banal and accurate as a historical reference.

Biden I am sure was unaware of this totally.


But, by harping on this, you and the others are only serving to engender the Liberal cause of Black Victim Hood and a revision of history that never happened.  Its important that Nobody does this.
