The truth shall set you free, says the Bible. Speaking of which, let me introduce you to 82-year-old Joyce, a black grandmother who is so utterly fed up with the fraggle-nackle bull being peddled by Democrats that she took the time to call into CSPAN’s “Washington Journal” and lay the truth down for host Greta J. Brawner.
Listen:
Below is my attempt at transcribing this wonderful woman’s astute words:
I am an 82-year-old black senior citizen and grandmother, and I voted straight Republican because I have noticed through the years what the Democrat party has done to my people. Unemployment is higher in the black community than it is any . . . we are double with unemployment . . . than it is anywhere else.
And there is no way I can continue to say that I was a Christian and stay in the Democrat party. They advocate the killing of babies, they advocate taking from the doers and giving to the ones that’s sitting doing nothing. And I’m not talking about the people that need help, because there are so many people getting help that don’t need help that it prevents the people that really need help from getting it. And you know, I see here in Texas, a woman is running to be the governor of this great state and she stood 13 hours advocating the killing of babies. And I can remember the Democrat party took God out of the platform, and they voted three times to put it back in, but three times it lost but they pretended that it won. And people were in that audience just mucking and pitching, “Take God out!” So for that reason, there is no way I can say that I was a Christian and stay in the Democrat party.
And another thing – I hear my people calling in all the time saying that every time you say something against the ideology of President Obama, that you’re doing it because he is black. We need to stop that foolishness. This man is destroying this country and that’s what he intended to do. He said he was going to transform America and that is what he is doing.
I am not a Christian and will likely never be one, but I still love her words. I especially appreciate the criticism she lodges against those people who use racism to deflect from any and all opposition to President Obama and his horrible policies. Kudos to you, Miss Joyce, for speaking the truth! Kudos indeed!
PS – The woman in the picture is is actress Irma P. Hall, who for the record played Mother Joe in the critically acclaimed film “Soul Food.”
So is this an “Auntie Tom?” How dare she speak her mind like that! Now the liberals and blacks will be after her for apostasy!
But I have to give her a tip of the hat for having the guts to speak the truth in the face of so much opposition.
Looking for , for whites only signs to be going back up. Ahhhhh the good old days, back to segregation .
Wow, that is the exception that proves the rule. lol You go Granny, speak the truth!
Jesus said himself he didn’t come for those with a good heart. If you have a good heart and follow the Golden rule, generally speaking, then you don’t need Him. But his teachings (the New Testament) are synonymous with what it means to be a good natured person, whether we call it Christian or not. I mean, what other leader of men said love your enemy and actually meant it throughout all of history?
Thank Jesus for this lady, and her devotion to His words. “Do not be a hypocrite and claim you are a Christian while voting democrat” is a trend of thought I hope catches fire and consumes the evil doers (channeling GWB).
Jesus said he didn’t come to call the righteous but to call the sinners. And all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Also His word says only God is good, call none good. So that is flawed in so many ways
Lol. I’m sure your interpretation is the only correct one. I stand corrected. Shoot, and i thought I was good to go. Gosh darn it. See you in hell I guess.
Search ….”Back when we were Negros” nice read from an older Negro man up in Georgia. The good ol days are gone,thanks in part to the Blackbriars of this once great Nation. Whadda ya have? wadda ya have? wadda ya have? Have your money in your hand and your order on your mind…..maybe someone here will know what I’m talking about.
Big difference between “old school” and new dumb fools. I understand that for sure…tru dat!!!Ha.
This chick is hip to the demoncrap’s tricks. You go with your bad self grannie!
Gaawn gurl! Preach it Sistah Soulja!
I LOVE YOU, Granny! AKA: Irma P. Hall! You are a blessing, a disciple of the Lord, a true Patriot, and an Angel from Heaven! I’m a seventy four year old widow and probably won’t see you on earth, but for sure I will meet you in Heaven! Thank you for your wonderful testimony! God Bless you! Luci
Lol. I guess reading comprehension is beyond your comprehension. The caller is NOT Irma P. Hall.
You just called out a 74 year old widow. Feel better?
You can bet he feels like a “big tough man” because that is what the wimps/cowards do to feel good. They won’t go after anyone they know will make a fool out of them. He is another keyboard commando that talks big while hiding in the basement but won’t say a word when face to face. Look at the name the troll is using and if that doesn’t tell you what a loser he is nothing will. Also 99% of the leftist/Marxist cowards use other names and hide their profiles like this loser.
I knew one of you tards was obsessively rainmaning that. Its funny that your parents named you Maddog2008. Where are-Josey Wales (parents were Eastwood fans, the boy is a jailbird dirt bag in love with the dirty hairy), semperguy and the rest of the nitwits in your data?
Oh my, another gutless liberal who hides his profile and who has a keyboard tough guy complex, I am shaking in my boots. I’ll bet that you were you a trial lawyer that sued every chance you got to make a meager living off the backs of the insurance companies and were caught breaking the law. Could it be that you were given the choice to either surrender your license or “retire” or that you were such a lousy mouthpiece and couldn’t make a living? Don’t be upset, just asking Zippy, please don’t sue me. Looking at your avatar you look like you are white yet you use “godlesswhitetrash” as your posting name, sure does tells a lot about you and your liberal agenda sonny. Now be a good little boy go troll elsewhere where you might be able to pull off your B/S.—- BTW: Did your parents name you “godlesswhitetrash”? If they did it sure does prove the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.
You miss the point. I didn’t call anyone a coward for using a pseudonym. You did. and that is the act of one so oblivious of the feces rolling down his leg and onto the podium that … never mind you will never get it. There is no equivalency in our positions. We diametrically opposite. Actually, I am in good standing and could reactivate, but I retired at 60 and I am out. How could I sue you? You don’t use your real name, or do you? It would be easier to find that then Schiestkopf or whatever it is. What profile? I answered questions when I got on Disquss to play with you wads of fetal tissue no more and no less. So, I am not hiding anymore than you are, at least I know that I am using a “nom d’ plum.” “Off the backs of insurance companies?” Who’s unit are you licking for how much? Have you ever used a phrase of your own making, one that didn’t come from the echo chamber?
In HannityLand, anyone with a high school diploma and a reading level above “See Spot Run”, is a “Marxist/Leninist” these days.
Got to love the trolls like you as they are always good for a laugh. 99% of you “tough guys” use a avatar along with some real scary sayings like your “I like wiping the blood spray out of my eye, ect-ect”. WOW! I am impressed, I am surely not going to get a warrior like you upset with me. What are you 12 years old or maybe 5’1, 350lbs, still live at home with mommy and daddy in the basement? I know, I know you were a Marine, a Navy Seal, a CIA Agent, a war hero with countless metals awarded to you by your God Obama, right? As I said to the other troll, get a life and get back to the Daily Kos, they are missing their village idiot zippy.
LOL. Yep. the village idiot is missing, and the son of the town “pump” was last seen giving free psychoanalysis readings on Downtrend. I hear he goes by the name “Maddog 2008”, in honor of both the beverage used in his conception and the “NOW SERVING” ticket his father held in line.
Who really gives one shit! she is 74, come on
I’d be damn proud to call her my granny!!!
Truth its not a color
When will the left start calling her delusional/senile….
No doubt… And perhaps obama will send AG holder and a few of his goons to investigate this woman on the basis of i dunno, sedition, inciting riots, maybe hate crimes, I mean she spoke favorably of Christianity- must mean she’s a hater and oppressor of others, right ? Could be shes even a domestic terrorist what with all these radical ideas….!
I don’t guess greasy al and jesse will be praising her. Bless her!
Remember Jesse’s famous line- “not only do I deny the allegations- I deny the alligators!”
Yes…you go girl. Old school, and F ing A dead on. Take that Darth, and the criminals you rode in with.
This is a woman who tells the truth,,I hope the republicans heard her to,because progressive republicans need to be voted out.
Kudos to Miss Joyce. There is hope for America to survive.
She is exactly right
The lady is ver wise. Listen to what she says and consider your own beliefs.
Spoken like a Prophet/Angel.
Well said Josey.. I hope more people realize the Commiecrats are like this.
TY Frank, we can only hope these last 6 years has opened alot of eyes to what is transparent and what is not.
You think that everybody automatically get wise with age? You must because you don’t the poor ignorant soul from Adam and Steve but you know she is wise. Which makes you the chump of the century.
Such hatred but not suprised coming from one with such a tortured soul . Materialistic trash.
Still talking about things you know nothing about. I am neither materialistic or tortured. My life has been fulfilling and I am happy as a clam these days. How would you know that? You don’t even know how much b.s I have fed you, Meat Puppet. The 6th article of the US constitution prohibits religious tests for elected and appointed office. She should be blaming the people that wrote the constitution for keeping her god out of government. The D’s lost the white south over the 1960’s civil rights bills that were supported by enough black people that a number of them died to make them happen. Where was she then, with the klan? The klan went to the Rtard party. Good luck with your rectal-cranial inversion. It is diverting messing with you. I wouldn’t do it but you are a bigoted douche bag.
I find it amusing that your parents would name you godlesswhitetrash but it fits.After quite a few exchanges with your happy as a clam ass , I have come to the conclusion that you are really a miserable old curmudgeon.
Could have been a lawyer but couldn’t refrain from drugs and alcohol so what little you did retain you find pleasure in regurgitating on others. Save it fo someone who is easily impressed.You know someone who gives a fvck.
Me being a “jailbird you are the one guilty of one who assigns characteristics to a thing or persona you know nothing about. Prove your words.I stated I had representation but not a thing about doing time. Again prove your accusations Meat Puppet.To bad for the other’s on this great article that you had to stumble your drunken ass in and fvck it up with your white trash godless stinking ass.
Tell me, where are all the libby lefty blow holes? Whats a matter, game cocks got your tongues (stupid question)? What are they going to do call her SENILE? Crazy? LMFNO its amazing isn’t it?.
This is great and thank God they cannot call her a racist, sexist, or white privilege but only a wonderful and knowledgeable woman who sees and knows what is happening because of the democrapt’s! The schools need to be held accountable along with teachers, parents, and the children, and once we remove all political correctness and white guilt our children, all colors, will be much more prepared for their futures!
God Bless America!
Wink, wink She’s 82 years old so any thing she says is the ravings of an old black woman . But why is she spot no.
Blacks have been poor and abused forever in America. Republicans have done nothing but
Grandma Joyce is a treasure. The woman is beautiful and could be anyone’s beloved granny.
Mr. V Saxena I just wanted to say that was a very good article and I am a fan of your writing. This is one of the reasons I come to Downtrend.. Keep up the good work..
