Over in the States, a phrase has been coined that sums up the “white-Americans-must-be-racist-because-they-oppose-President-Obama” accusation repeated ad nauseam by the BBC – Liberal McCarthyism.
On Pajamas Media, via Fivefeetoffury:
What we’re hearing is the liberals’ McCarthyism, which is, when in doubt, blame people for racism. Litigators have an old argument: When the law’s on your side, argue the law. When the facts are on your side, argue the facts. When neither’s on your side, pound the table. This amounts to pounding the table.The battle against racism took a McCarthyite turn a long time ago in the UK, the turning point being the Macpherson report in 1999. Theodore Dalrymple summed up the twisted logic perfectly in this article:I have yet to see evidence, is there — does evidence even intrude in this conversation? Is there any evidence that these people are racists? I think not.
Thus Macpherson’s redefinition of racism: “Failure to adjust policies and methods to meet the needs of policing a multi-racial society can occur simply because police officers may mistakenly believe that it is legitimate to be ‘colour-blind’ in both individual and team response to the management and investigation of racist crimes.”As well as the “institutional racism” of the Metropolitan Police, there was also unwitting racism, subconscious racism, potential racism and dog-whistle racism, in which politicians who spoke out against crime were deemed toOn the very next page, however, Sir William quoted approvingly the assertion of an association of black police officers: “Institutional racism leads officers to act, albeit unconsciously, and for the most part unintentionally, and treat others differently because of their ethnicity or culture.” In other words, if you treat people the same, you are racist; but if you treat them differently, you are racist.

I vote Liberal “McCartyism”
No, we are not a victim of “Liberal McCarthyism.”
For one thing, McCarthy was right all along, and the commie pinko scum supporting this administration is wrong.

I’m NOT RACIST or a victim of anybody, thank you very much!!!
I think for myself!!!
In a similar vein:

It’s not because he is black!
It’s because he is “RED”!!!!!!
That's exactly correct as proven by the FBI's decades long Venona Project.
McCarthy was 100% correct so to use his name in this manner is to agree with the Liberals that he was wrong...he wasn't!!
Also, one of the best books of all time is: Witness
Good answer.
Despite the fact that our opponents are racist marxists, I have no intent of becoming a victim.
The McCarthy era reaction to commie insurgents was nothing compared to what the NeoComs are doing and will do to patriots. McCarthy was a gentleman compared to the vicious, hate-filled, rabid NeoComs. Slaughtering political enemies is what commies are best at, and our NeoComs are no different.
Just exactly how can a white person be racist against someone who is half-white? By being a half-racist? Geeesh, when is the SRM going to start saying the the Messiah is HALF-WHITE? Oh, wait, I already know the answer to that.
Color blind was shtick for squishy libs, anti-racism is anti-white hate, because the left needs hate as a tactic. (see Lenin)
Blacks voted 95% for Obama - that is a clear sign of racism.
Isn't that the truth??? I'm trying to curb my pure frustration at this point...
Yes...sadly we do know the answer....
That point must be a dream, because I think it’ll never happen...not this side of GLORY!
