Liberal Journalist Misplays Race Card Badly

When it comes to the race card game, you can’t win with a liberal. If you’re conservative, you’re racist no matter how you play it. As the 2012 GOP Convention progresses, this liberal con game is once again in play. You’d think Republicans would have learned by now. When it comes to issues on race, you may as well be playing Three Card Monty with a downtown street hustler. No matter how you play it, you will lose.

During the convention, the Dems and their compliant media toadies have used a ruse that everyone should be well aware of by now. Republicans get accused of pandering to minorities when they’re included, and accused of purposely excluding them when they’re not. Republicans are racist either way, in this liberal heads-I-win-tails-you-lose shell game.

Yesterday, karma may have finally caught up with the liberal media when Yahoo’s Washington Bureau Chief David Chalian was fired after he was recorded at the Republican National Convention saying the GOP was “happy to have a party with black people drowning.” Racist, idiotic, and just a little bit confusing. Was Chalian implying that only blacks were going to drown as a result of hurricane flooding? What about whites—wouldn’t they drown too? Or does he believe that whites are more buoyant with better swimming skills than blacks? We’ll probably never know what was really going through that liberal muddled mind.

One thing that would make the incident deliciously complete would be if the Romney campaign offered Chalian a job. In fact I’d recommend that the RNC make a big public deal out of it. They could release a statement saying, “We’re dedicated to putting Americans back to work, not firing them.”

Hey, if there were some such thing as Fantasy Politics similar to what they have in professional sports, that’s how I’d play it.

Now maybe time to fire the babe who claimed Republicans threw peanuts at her and said “This is how we feed animals”?

All he did was come out and say aloud what the MSM was trying to convey, IMO

a few camera’s around and they happen to be camera men too but no photo no video.

Reminds me when Pelosi marched through the tea party and nothing happened so they made it up.
Imagine if the GOP marched through occupy protest, do we really think nothing would happen as we went through the party of the intolerant

There is no way Republicans can drown as many black people as the Democrats are killing with their funding of planned parenthood.

Democrats are sneaky they kill them before they are born.

Genocide through abortion.

This is the result of the coup d'etat pulled off by the communist left. Getting a black man elected to the presidency is the ultimate race card. From now on every issue will be seen through a racial prism. The days of our so-called social order are doomed.

Excellent summary of how the race card is played.

Biggest story of her life and three camera-people fail to get it on film.

I'd fire 'em.

“From now on every issue will be seen through a racial prism. The days of our so-called social order are doomed.”

Whites who have been denied jobs, promotions, or college admissions because of their race know that it has been over for decades. The slump in the “white” birthrate will attest to that.

There is nothing more intolerant than a tolerant leftist.

She could have made it look legit. Carve a swastika on her forehead and tie herself to a tree.

2 things I've never seen a camera operator miss, and those are action of any sort (shooting, etc...) or a pretty girl''s aft section.

They will crawl through briars to get footage of either.

Today, wanting to follow the law now makes one “Controversial”, radical, evil and racist.

Using math and common sense re saying no to rat deficit spending to buy votes from minorities and illegals or terrible green tyranny is evil and racist.

Being a practicing Christian or Jew in today’s America, is a worse evil as well as being racist.

Telling the truth is now evil racism!

Last but not least, believing in personal responsibility is both evil, radical and racist.
