Mitt Romney Loves Using the Word "Dog" Around African Americans
It has come to my attention that whenever Mitt Romney is in the presence of African Americans, that his favorite word of choice to use is "dog".
Is this just a coincidence that he happens to use this word only around black people, or is it a deep rooted issue that makes him refer to black people as dogs?

Recently, Republican Representative Steve King was secretly recorded referring to U.S. immigrants as "dogs", the very same word that Mitt Romney can't seem to escape from whenever he's surrounded by minorities.

Mitt Romney visited an inner city elementary school in Philadelphia, and once again, he decided to use the word "dog" in a sentence while surrounded by young black children. The Governor's sentence read, "Dogs drive Douglas dizzy."
Was this the Governor's secret lingo for really saying, "Dogs drive Mitt Romney dizzy" of course referencing the black children around him?

Watching Romney in various settings, never once have I heard him use his favorite word "dog" while surrounded by a group of Caucasians, so what really gives? Why are these Republicans so comfortable with referring to minorities as animals?
And watching Mitt Romney hold that sign up made me feel that he hasn't changed much from his private school days in Cranbrook, where he was known for being a school bully when others differed from him.

I understand that The Mormon Church in which Mitt Romney was raised, didn't allow black people to join until 1978, as it says in the Mormon Bible that, "Africans were cursed with black skin" as descendants
of the biblical Noah's son Ham, and because "Ham saw
his father's naked body, he and his descendants were cursed to be the servant of servants."
And as U.S. history shows, minorities were enslaved and used as servants for centuries.

The Mormon church added a unique twist that blacks were somehow "less
valiant", than other races in the spirit world before this life. So it would appear that the Mormon Church validated institutionalized racism from 1831 when the church was first founded, all the way up until just 34 years ago in 1978.
I guess even the Civil Rights Movement which took place from 1955-1968, wasn't enough for the Mormon Church to begin accepting black people?

Mitt Romney has consistently commented that he firmly believes in his Mormonism, and the principles of the church. Would this also mean that Mitt Romney firmly believes that black people are "cursed with black skin", as it says in the Mormon Bible? And if so, is this the reason behind his "dog" antics?

In Steve King's Words,
"Well you go in and you look at a litter of pups, and you watch them. You watch how they play, they run around a little bit, and what do you want? You want a good bird dog, and you want one that's gonna be aggressive? Pick the one that's the friskiest, the one that's in games the most - not the one that's over there sleeping in the corner."
"You want a pet to sit on the couch, pick the one that's sleeping in the corner. That's so, you get the pick of the litter, you got yourself a pretty good bird dog. We got the pick of every donor civilization on the planet because it's hard to get here, you had to be inspired to come. We got the vigor from the planet to come to America. Whichever generation it was, and then we taught our children that same thing."
Another view is he might be trying to be cool. Guys used to say, "What up, Dog!"; Arsenio Hall had the "Dog Pound", etc. It's sort of similar to a guy who assumed I wanted to "hi-five" him, but was shocked when I shook his hand. Also, notice how SOME try to make a raspy talking/singing voice to fit in and then change back to their regular voices when their among other groups. So, he might have been trying to fit in.
ReplyDeleteBTW, notice how Romney tries to copy POTUS Obama? He tried to sing; he now wears no ties, open top-buttoned shirts; shows PDA to his wife; tries to relax; has his wife speak at the DNC; etc.---to lighten his public image. JSMH.
