Crazy Ass Republican Marriage Pledge

I took a long look at the GOP-Tea Party-Republican Marriage Vow and here it is in short form: The document implies that children born to slaves during the pre-civil war era were a lot better off since they had two parents? It seems to me and a lot of other Black folk that these racist red necks need a history lesson again or they are attempting to re-write history once more! Children born to slaves were not recognized as legitimate, since marriages between slaves were not recognized as valid marriages. Slaves had no rights, no legal marriages and certainly their children all grew up illegitimate in the eyes of their masters. Women slaves who were RAPED by their slave owners and bore children were not with their fathers, because they were abandoned by their rapists. Children born of slavery were raised by one parent in dirty, dingy, nasty huts and out buildings, and none were actually “married”, so this marriage pledge is absolutely incorrect historically but morally corrupt as well. You probably wonder what slave children have to do with a marriage vow in 2011? In all reality, the Tea Party, and especially Michelle Bachman want a return to slavery! She utters something almost daily about slavery! Under no circumstances can ANY white person or any other person state that children born in this era were better off. How ignorant is the writer of this pledge, that no one but two ignorant and dumb suckers will sign it (Michelle Bachman, Rick Santorum). After this silly ass document came out, a day or so later the references to slave children was removed entirely, but the total sum of this pact is intolerance of others. The Republican establishment does not have the control of the party it once did and the radical right appears have taken over the asylum. In short, this Republican Marriage Pledge represents the repression of minorities, and incites intolerance of anyone who is not white. This party is now running on social issues in the midst of the greatest recession (Black Depression), since the First Great Depression. The whole Republican Marriage Pledge concept makes me depressed just reading it; you feel like you’re being indoctrinated by some religious cult. Seriously, the Republican Party is now the party of the delusional right. It has become a religion, not a political party. The GOP still ain’t got nothin on Obama. Basically the document is a Pledge to do away with: 1. Social programs that bolster Blacks, 2. Gays, 3. Pro-Choice, 4.Pornography, and, 5) Muslims. Do you finally believe now? I’m Phillip Norton and I’m out!
