标 题: 路易斯安那黑人州议员抛弃民主党加入GOP
发信站: BBS 未名空间站 (Tue Jun 18 21:55:06 2013, 美东)
Louisiana State Senator Elbert Gullory — formerly a Democra — made a
surprising and enthusiastic announcement. The African-American Senator is
walking away from the Democrats to join the GOP. After making the
announcement, Sen. Gullory released this video explaining his unique
decision.
“I’m Elbert Lee Guillory, the senator for the 24th district right here in
beautiful Louisiana. Recently I made what many are referring to as a bold
decision to switch my party affiliation to the Republican Party. I wanted
to take a moment to explain why I chose to become a Republican and also to
explain why I don’t think it was a bold decision at all. It is the right
decision. Not only for me, but for all my brothers and sisters in the black
community. You see, in recent history, the Democrat Party created the
illusion that their agenda and their policies are what’s best for black
people.
Somehow it’s been forgotten the Republican Party, founded in 1854 as an
abolitionist movement with one simple creed that slavery is a violation of
the rights of man. Fred ache Douglass called Republicans the party of
freedom add progress. And the first Republican President was Lincoln, the uh
a Thor of the emancipation proclamation. It was Republicans who offered
the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments giving former slaves citizenship, voting
rights and drew process of law. The Democrats, on the other hand, with the
party of Jim Crow, it was Democrats who defended the rights of slaves on us.
It was the Republican president Dwight Eisenhower who champions the Civil
Rights Act of 1957, but it was the Democrats in the Senate who filibustered
the bill.
At the heart of liberalism is the idea that only a great and powerful big
government can be the benefactor of social justice for all Americans. But
the left is only concerned with one thing: Control, and they guess guise in
control as charity. Programs such as welfare, these programs aren’t
designed to lift black Americans out of poverty. They were always intended
as a mechanism for politicians to control the black community. The idea
that blacks or anyone, for that matter, need the government to get ahead in
life is despicable.
And even or important, this idea is a failure. Our communities are just as
poor as they have always been. Our schools continue to fail children, our
prisons are filled with young black men, who should be at home, being
fathers. Our self-initiative and our several relicense have been sacrificed
in exchange for allegiance to our overseers. Who control us by making us
dependent on them. Sometime I wonder if the word freedom is tossed around
so frequently in our society that it has become a cliche. The idea of
freedom is complex and it’s all-encompassing. It’s the idea that the
economy must remain free of government persuasion. It’s the idea that the
press must operate without government intrusion. It’s the idea that e-
mails and phone records of Americans should remain free from government
search and seizure. It’s the idea that parents must be the decision-makers
in regards to their children’s education, not shop government bureaucrat.
But most importantly, it is the idea that the individual must be free to
pursue his or her own happiness, free from government dependence and free
from government control, because to be truly free is to be reliant on no one
, other than the author of our destiny.
These are the ideas at the core of Republican party and it is why I am a
Republican. So my brothers and sisters of the American community, please
join with me today in abandoning the government plantation and the party of
disappointment.” | l**********r 发帖数: 4612 | 2 中文翻譯:
我是埃尔伯特李盖尔利,是这美丽的路易斯安那州第24区的参议员。
最近我做了個被许多人認為是一个大胆的决定-我加入了共和党。
我想花点时间来解释下我为什么选择成为一名共和党人,
也解释为什么我不认为这是一个看似大胆的决定。
不仅为我,而且为我所有的黑人社区兄弟姐妹们,这是正确的决定。
你看,在近代历史上,民主党總給人錯覺,以为他们的议程和政策是對黑人最好的。
不知為什麼,出於奴隶制违反人权的简单信条,早在1854年就創立了的共和党卻被黑人
遗忘了。
弗雷德道格拉斯曾經稱共和党是為自由前進的党。
第一个共和党总统是林肯,簽了“解放奴隸宣言”。
也恰恰是共和党,提出第13,14和第15修正案,给昔日奴隶們公民权,
投票权和法律程序訴訟权。而另一方面,當時民主党的吉姆·克罗,卻要維護奴隸制度。
正是共和党总统艾森豪威尔強力支持了1957年的权利法案“,
而民主党在参议院阻挠该法案通過。
荔波肉的核心思維是只有一个强大的大政府才可以为所有美国人服務。
但是左派們其實只关心一件事:控制。而且他们把這種控制偽裝成施捨。
如糧食券,社保福利,这些项目并不是在幫助黑人摆脱贫困,而是利用這种机制,
來控制黑人社区。對於黑人,或任何人,一定需要政府幫助才能謀生的想法是卑劣的。
更重要的是,这种想法是失败的。有沒有這些福利,我们的社区還是一样的穷,
我们的学校還是一樣的給孩子失敗的教育,
我们的监狱還是充满了本应该是呆在家里的年轻黑人父親們。
我们已經牺牲了自我主动追求和自我依靠的精神,
换來的是對控制我们,使我们依赖于他们监督下的那些人的效忠。
有时我在思考,“自由”這個詞在日常社會如此频繁的使用,已经成了陈词滥调。
自由的概念是應該是复杂的,是全方位的:
它是经济上必须保持自由,不被政府左右;
它是新闻必须不受政府侵扰;
它是公民的电子邮件和电话记录应该保持不受政府搜查和扣押;
它是家长一定要在子女的教育方面有决策權,而不是政府官僚;
但最重要的,它是个人的想法,能够自由地追求他或她自己的幸福,
不依赖政府, 不被政府控制,因为要想真正的自由,就不能依赖于任何人,除了上帝。
这些都是共和党的核心理念,这是为什么我要做一个共和党人。
所以,我的兄弟姐妹們,请和我一起摒棄這個政府的大種植園和這個令人失望的黨。
讓我們回味那位偉大領袖(馬丁路德。金)的名言,
“终于自由了!终于自由了!感謝主我們終於自由了” | T**********e 发帖数: 29576 | 3 对黑人的照顾和福利实际上没有改善黑人的处境, 黑人需要的是积极的生活方式和勤
