Eat, Pray, Love And Be Black, But Don't Be A Republican

Crystal Wright, a conservative Republican blogger in Washington, D.C., comments on the misogynistic and foul comments by Cedric The Entertainer and other liberals towards her, after a recent appearance on Black Entertainment Television: "Since I began my blog, most of the hateful email and tweets I receive come from black liberals. I find this ironic since the Democrat[ic] [P]arty touts itself as the party of tolerance and as DNC Chairwoman Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz recently said it is 'the natural home to minorities.' Some tolerance!"

She continues her commentary: "To give you a taste of the kind vulgar, distasteful and racist comments I receive, I thought I would share with you some unsavory tweets hurled at me while I joined BET’s Ed Gordon Tuesday night as the only black Republican woman providing analysis of President Obama’s State of the Union Speech. Cedric the Entertainer, as he refers to himself, didn’t like my commentary that Obama’s speech was more Obama blaming Bush, Republicans and everything under the sun for his failed policies. So, he tweeted the following:


A series of more vulgar tweets were made by his followers.


More: "In America, no matter what your race, you have the freedom to believe in any religion or support any political party you choose. What’s really pathetic about these racist attacks is  instead of responding with a counter viewpoint, people like Cedric and others respond with ignorance."
