Nope. Then again, I'm talking about conservatives, not the neo-conservatives that infest the modern day Republican Party. The two are not the same.
The picture indicates black people have separate water fountains still, one for most black people and one for black conservatives.
A truly poor cartoon
It does seem that black conservatives are treated very similarly to communists in the US. Shunned by the general population for their political beliefs

No, not exactly. I do think it's true that black conservatives sometimes get their race thrown at them by some of the very same people who are supposedly so racially sensitive. It seems like some of the very same liberals (not all by any means) that will see "dog whistle" racism in the most innocuous terms will openly engage in insulting someone on the basis of their race if that person is also conservative.

well, the treatment i see the left giving black conservatives lines up with this cartoon pretty well.... as well as a cartoon can represent the issue anyways.
I think we have to be careful about generalizations. You know that saying, "Empty wagons rattle the loudest"? Well, I think we're just more likely to hear the loudest voices and then tend to think that's representative of the entire group. I have seen plenty of liberals condemn the use of race based insults regardless of who says them.

It just seems that black conservatives are allways being told how they are not really black or they are uncle toms or house n. Go look at what is treated at denean barelli and tell me that's not true.totally disagree
i think its like everything else
you have your PEOPLE no matter what they are then you have your LOONS
would it be fair to judge all conservatives based on palin, rush, bachmann, beck? no of course not and the people that do are PART of the problem
i know black conservatives that are normal as can be i dont judge them based on people like cain and west

LOL...either way 93% of Blacks vote Democrat. That proves they are smarter than Herman Cain.....course most people are.
Every time a conservative black man seeks a powerful position in the federal government the liberals drag out some bimbo to bring him down. Clarence Thomas and Herman Cain both had to go through hell thanks to liberals who claim conservatives are racists.

Go look at the twitter messages sent to black conservatives and then tell me it's just a meme!This is one of those "conservative" memes that is just silly.
The idea that liberals treat prominent black conservatives any differently than they do prominent white conservatives is bunk. At issue with people like Cain and Carson is their political ideology. What you are saying is that liberals suddenly become racists when the black person in question is conservative. You must see how that makes absolutely no sense.
On the other hand, white conservatives sure do spend a lot of time crowing about how much they love their black conservatives. What they do not do is actually cast votes for them. See how tht differs?

That would prove nothing. This is a silly case of faulty logic. If the liberals that you are speaking of would support a white conservative but not a black one, you would have a point. But.....that is not the case. and....liberals have proven a willingness to elect black politicians. The only possible reason that you can point to for liberals not supporting Cain or West or Carson......is their politics.
Lets stop this silliness. At least here in this forum. What do you say?
No the wouldn't support a white conservative but the don't say a white conservative is betraying their race or isn't really a member of that rave because of their political views. Look at Robert Griffin he has conservative and Christian views plus doesn't act like a thug so he was labeled a "cornball brother".
blacks have the right to be conservative in my opinion
but no need to be like white cons
