Black Disenfranchisement and Mandates
Neal Boortz
Wednesday, Dec. 27, 2000
Editor's Note: Neal Boortz is on vacation. While he's away, we will be
publishing material he has submitted recently, much of which we were unable
to find space for before.
Where's the Disenfranchisement?
The Florida attorney general has failed to turn up evidence of what race
warlord Jesse Jackson called "a systematic plan to disenfranchise black
voters." Still you hear the Rev. Jesse ranting about this plan that included
racist vote-counting machines that could sense whether a ballot was cast by
a black person.
Jackson claims that Florida officials and members of law enforcement worked
to prevent black voters from entering polling precincts statewide with
roadblocks and such. Then we had Gore campaign manager Donna Brazile saying
that black voters faced "dogs and guns" while trying to get to the polls.
But the Florida Highway Patrol says a police roadblock set up near a
predominantly black precinct near Tallahassee had been set up in the same
spot a month earlier and was designed to conduct inspections of every fifth
car that passed through it.
There was no regard for the race of the driver. Yet Jackson and others
insisted that only black drivers were targeted. And reports of police
intimidating black voters outside voting precincts proved groundless; they
were searching the area for a robbery suspect.
Fact is, neither Jesse, nor Al Sharpton, nor Joseph Lowery, nor Donna
Brazile - not one of them - has been able to come to the table with one
single black voter from anywhere in the entire state who can show that they
were (a) properly registered to vote and (b) denied the opportunity to cast
a ballot on Election Day.
Jesse saw a huge story - the election recount - and wanted his face right in
the middle of it. To get there, Jesse had to bring the same dance partner
he brings to every publicity party: Madame Race. Now we're finding out that
the old broad didn't dance all that well.
Jackson's response to this news will be sheer outrage. He may even stomp his
feet and hold his breath until he turns blue! Then Jesse will turn around
and blame the Republicans' dominance of politics in Florida.
Yeah, that's right. It's those evil, Nazi Republicans. They've taken all of
those black folks they wouldn't let vote and they've either bribed them or
hidden them away somewhere where they won't talk to the press. It's those
nasty Republicans suppressing the evidence of the disenfranchisement of his
people.
No Mandate for a Tax Cut?
Will George W. Bush try to push his promised tax cut through a tight
Congress? Many guessers and pundits in the media are saying that he won't,
because there's no "mandate" for a tax cut.
Of course there's no mandate for a tax cut. What do you think the leftists
have been working toward for so many years? Do you think there's going to be
a huge popular mandate for an across-the-board tax cut when the vast
majority of the taxes are being paid by only a small percentage of our
income earners?
In effect, most of the taxes are paid by about the top 30 percent to 35
percent of income earners. The bottom 40 percent pay nothing at all. How are
you going to get a huge demand generated for a tax cut when taxes are
concentrated in such a small portion of our populaton?
It's been a brilliant strategy! You weed the majority of the people off the
tax rolls - put them on an essentially free ride - and then ask them if they
feel strongly about a tax cut. Hell no, they don't! Why should they?
We will only get a meaningful tax cut for the folks who are really paying
the bills if the D.C. power structure recognizes that we need to put some
more money back into the hands of the people who earned it to get our
economy cranked again. That's when the high producers once again become the
friends of the great unwashed.
