Tactics From the Progressive Playbook: Race-Baiting

Unless you’ve been sticking your head in the sand, or had a busy summer of spending American tax dollars with Obama on the golf course, you’re probably aware of all the race baiting going down in Ferguson, Missouri.

Several weeks ago, a black man named Michael Brown was shot and killed by a white police officer, in the economically depressed community outside of St. Louis, creating a perfect recipe for race riots, looting, and liberal race baiting geared toward keeping Americans divided.

America’s favorite race hustler, the Rev. Al Sharpton shot over to Ferguson before Brown’s body went cold, sensing yet another opportunity to further his career and line his pockets by stirring up racial tensions and egging on violent protests.

Jesse Jackson caught a ride on Sharpton’s opportunistic coat tails, spewing racially charged rhetoric to crowds of protesters, and then getting booed off stage when he asked attendees to grease his palms with a little greenback.

Attorney General Eric Holder and President Obama have both jumped on the bandwagon, slapping the race card down on the table on repeated occasions since the shooting took place, attempting to boost their approval ratings and continue their mesmerizing hold on minority voters.

This hateful rhetoric being puked up all over the good people of Ferguson and being lapped up Obama’s pet puppy (mainstream media) is all part of another tactic utilized by Progressives to maintain political power and control.

Race-Baiting.
