RNC: Obama playing on 'class warfare and race'April 28, 2010

The Republican National Committee Tuesday night accused President Obama of making "an appeal based on class warfare and race" after Obama outlined his party's midterm strategy of returning people who voted for the first time in 2008 to the polls in November.

Obama, in a video released this week, spoke in the demographic terms more commonly -- though very commonly -- used by political consultants, saying Democrats must appeal to "young people, African-Americans, Latinos, and women who powered our victory in 2008 [to] stand together once again."

The Wall Street Journal (sub. req.) reports Wednesday on another Democratic strategy to fire up the base, a planned speech by DNC Chairman Tim Kaine that will reportedly allege that Republicans aim to suppress minority votes, a frequent Democratic charge that is inevitably mirrored by GOP claims of vote fraud.

"Only days after our post-racial president made an appeal based on class warfare and race, Gov. Kaine is doing the same thing," said RNC spokesman Doug Heye in an email Tuesday. "It tells you how bad things are for them. Desperate times call for desperate measures, only now it's on an advanced timetable."

WATCH ARIZONA CLOSELY.

ARE WE A NATION OF LAWS OR A NATION OF FASCIST POLITICAL CORRECTNESS?

The Fascists are on the move.

Arizona will open this battle.

Leftists playing on “class warfare and race!” Now isn’t THAT unusual!!

[Pearls Before Swine]

Was it RNC chairman Richard Steele who said this? Didn’t think so.

[MrB]

The courts will probably go against AZ.

Then what?

Does AZ say screw you, or roll over and show their belly?

Leftists playing on “class warfare and race!” Now isn’t THAT unusual!!

And Marxists are so predictable.

“The Wall Street Journal (sub. req.) reports Wednesday on ... a planned speech by DNC Chairman Tim Kaine that will reportedly allege that Republicans aim to suppress minority votes,”

Kaine had better have some evidence for that allegation. Otherwise, it is akin to yelling “fire” in a crowded theater (or, hmmm...is that the objective?).

Moreover, it is disingenuous for the WSJ to compare it to RNC claims of “[DNC] voter fraud” (evidence for which could fill volumes).

"Obama playing on 'class warfare and race'"

The kenyan, obama, is CONSUMED with race. I'm no shrink but it probably stems from his f***ed up childhood.

Being a "community organizer" is all he will ever be, because that is what consumes his mind, and is the only "skill" that he has ever had.

He's comes across to me as a mad, spiteful, and pouty little boy who is hell bent to get his way, no matter how many tantrums it takes to get it.

Any problem that comes up, from healthcare to immigration, he looks for the racial angle first. I think he is socially blind to anything else.

And I think a lot of that comes from him not being quite as "bright" as everyone gives him credit for...he has a one-track mind and only focuses on things that he likes, and understands...(or thinks he understands).

He assembled his "czars" to do the actual "work" involved with the office, while he tends to the speeches, vacations, and showboating - his specialty.

Some say he's really smart with the way he's taking down America...I say he's just following Alinsky. This Alinsky guy basically wrote a book on how to misbehave and destroy things. I've only read excerpts from it, but those who have read the entire book say it is a dark, foreboding piece of work.

To invoke the Alisky methods and set socialism into full motion, they needed a totally "teflon" President that no one would challenge...what could be better in this PC world than a "black" president. Anything that resembled criticism could be construed and reported as "racism"...and has been.

However, some of that is backfiring on him...he has rounded the edges off "racism", and overused the term to the extent that it has lost a lot of its former impact....a lot.

The left has been reduced to making up s*** about "racists" now, like with the TEA party thing that no one could prove. It's pathetic - especially when it's the only card they have to play and there policies won't stand on their own merit.

You can coat a turd with chocolate, but you'll only sell one or two of them before the word gets around...DON'T BITE.

Blacks and Hispanics appear to be total ‘suckers’.

[Diogenesis]

The GOP has (unwisely) picked Steele and
Romney to make moot the issues of the DNC’s racism
and Obamacare; issues against which the GOP might have
otherwise successfully championed.

This battle is not about race. Its about denying the creation of an illegal slave class in Amrica.

Conservatives do not want slaves ti a fascist givernment, we wat patriots who are thinkers.

This could be a winnning situation for the RNC, but who will come forward?

Obama , a "post racial president?" Obama is as rascist as they can come. We have the equivalent of a KKK A$$ hat sitting in the white house.

[Candor7]

Ping!

[piytar]

Why’s the RNC openning their mouths? From what I’ve seen, there’s little difference between what obama says and what Steele says...

[stephenjohnbanker]

“Arizona will open this battle. “

And we will help to finish it as well.

[Candor7]

It is unusual because if they push it in Arizona, there may be race riots.Thats the iunusual thing.

Arizoa is trying to remind our whole country that we are a nation of laws/

Obama and his runnig dogs want to rule us as fascustrs, through political correctness.

The unusual situation is a show down. Who will blink?Surely not Arizona and Jan Brewer. She carries too heavy a rancher corpse to back down. Arizonans have had enough and are ready to slap leather.Two forces are about to confront each other.

Thats unusual.

[1raider1]

Was it RNC chairman Richard Steele who said this? Didn’t think so.

I know that you know the RNC's chairman's name is Michael Steele.

[Candor7]

From your lips to carved in stone.

[stephenjohnbanker]

Obama plays the race card.

Steele plays the race card.

Obama is for amnesty

Steele held a private meeting with LaRaza types, promising to recruit Republicans for amnesty(until he was “outed” by a participant).

What is the difference between the two?

[Uncle Miltie]

Republicans need to motivate old people, whites and men to defeat the young, the brown, and the girls!

(See tagline.)

[stephenjohnbanker]

LOL!
