Dear Newt Gingrich

Dear Newt Gingrich,

First I want to let you know who I am. I am a College Educated, Black Republican who voted for George W twice proudly. I am a lover of all things free enterprise and I want the Government to stay out my life, most notably my bedroom. After having watched you in last week's South Carolina debates I have a few issues I want to raise with you.

The first being, in 1998 when you were Speaker of the House, you LED the Impeachment against President Bill Clinton for having an affair with one of his employees. We now know that you, in fact, were doing the EXACT same thing with your current wife, Callista; that is, having an affair with one of your employees. Shouldn't you be called to the carpet on your hypocrisy, Sir? You are running for the White House as a champion for Family Values, when you have cheated on two of your three wives, and after hearing how "Callista doesn't care what you do", we may know why you haven't cheated on her. My point is this, you want the right to make sure that I can not marry my Girlfriend because I am a Woman, it is morally wrong, and destructive to the structure of the family unit. Isn't Adultery also morally wrong and destructive to the family unit? Neither the "blood sucking News Media", nor your Republican peers have demanded an answer for your hypocrisy.

The second issue I have with you and your campaign is this; your political views and policies seem to be extremely anti-Black and it appears that they may be based in racism. Again, while Speaker of the House, you constructed the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Act, much of which I agreed with and supported. I agree that Welfare should be a roadway to employment. Some of your statements are have factual merit and can not be argued, I actually agree with some of the things you say. I too feel Black people demand paychecks instead of food stamps. However, I continue to find some of the generalizations you make about Blacks to be filled with racial undertones, and it only serves to remind me that you grew up in the Segregated South. Saying Black people have low work ethic is racist. Saying that Black people want a hand out is racist. Are there generations of Black people who have been satisfied with living off of public entitlement programs, YES! Is it because they all have low work ethic and want handouts, NO! Is it because they are severely under-educated and under-employed, YES!!

Every other ethnic group of Americans came to this county because they wanted a better life; my people were forced to immigrate, going from freedom to property in the blink of an eye. There are millions of Blacks who have felonies on their records just because their drug of choice to use or sell was crystallized, not powered cocaine. I am only THREE generations from slavery, (a statement my President could never make, his father was African) and miles away from ethnic equality. I am working hard to take my sons one step closer to the American Dream than I was. It is statements like the ones you continue to make that make me feel racism won't die until the ones who grew up supporting it d--let me stop right there before I make a racist generalization. It is clear to me that American policies reflect the racists views of those in leadership.

I hope that you in fact do win the Republican nomination so that President Obama can check you on your bullshit, you can't trump him on family values. I will be at the edge of my seat watching a debate between you and President Obama. I can't wait to see you two go at it, it's going to make for some great sound bytes. You are the best Republican in the race, but I think the bi-racial Obama has a better vision for the country. I will vote for you to be the Republican nominee on Super Tuesday, but I won't vote for you in November; not because you're a hypocrite but because you're racist.

...Hate it or Love it; Either Way You Felt Somethin'
