War Against Whites? I Think Not
The New York Times ^ | August 6, 2014 | Charles M. Blow

Posted on 08/07/2014 9:19:15 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

When Representative Mo Brooks, Republican of Alabama, claimed earlier this week that Democrats were waging a “war on whites,” he lifted the lid on a simmering resentment that is very real and very resilient and feeds on anxiety — and fear — about a changing America, and the possibility of those changes upending historical architectures of privilege.

On Monday, Brooks was on Laura Ingraham’s radio show to talk about Republicans’ deportation policies. She played a clip of Ron Fournier of National Journal on Fox News saying:

“The fastest-growing voting block in this country thinks the Republican Party hates them. This party, your party, cannot be the party of the future beyond November if you’re seen as the party of white people.”

Ingraham asked Brooks to respond to the clip, and he did:

“This is a part of the war on whites that’s being launched by the Democratic Party. And the way in which they’re launching this war is by claiming that whites hate everybody else. It’s part of the strategy that Barack Obama implemented in 2008, continued in 2012, where he divides us all on race, on sex, greed, envy, class warfare, all those kinds of things.”

This is a paranoid delusion wrapped in a staggering deflection inside an utter lack of personal — or party — accountability.

Republicans have been digging a trench between themselves and racial minorities for decades. One could argue that it began when President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and reportedly lamented that, in doing so, he was assuring that Democrats had lost the South for a generation....

Just as an aside, Charles was pretty much the first national journalist who fanned the flames of the Trayvon Martin situation.

“Republicans have been digging a trench between themselves and racial minorities for decades.”

Meanwhile, Democrats were digging shallow graves for them after a lynching.

And this is one of the patrons of Saint Trayvon? attention whore to the max

I was fixin’ to go to bed for some much needed rest when I got sucked into reading this screed by Mr. Blow. Of course, the courageous NY Times has closed off the ability to leave a comment about this latest reverse racist tripe masquerading as learned opinion.

So now, I’m hung up.

Please. Next time, include a barf alert.

Republicans have already dug their own graves by doing nothing about illegal and LEGAL immigration over the last 40 years. It’s already too late for them even without another amnesty (good ol Reagan gave an amnesty in 1986).

Charles Blow is your “barf alert” if you’ve ever read even one of his columns.

War Against Whites? I Think Not


War Against Whites? I Know So

Just yesterday, Dana Milbank wrote an editorial in The Washington Post titled “Battle Cry of the White Man” where he honestly lays out the Democrat plan to use massive illegal immigration to demographically reduce White American citizens to a permanent, marginalized minority status in this country.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3189922/posts

The Progressive Elite sees White America as an embarrassing remnant of an oppressive, racist, paternalistic, homophobic and colonial past that must be eradicated so that a utopian New America devoid of it's White majority can be re born and prosper.

Milbank brilliantly summarizes and lays out the Progressive Elites views on White America and their plan to destroy the dominant White majority with a tsunami of Third World Minority immigration honestly and succinctly with the following paragraph directly from the Washington Post editorial

“But for the country, the disassociation of whiteness and American-ness is to be celebrated. Indeed, it is the key to our survival. This is not merely about a fresh labor supply but about the fresh blood needed to cure what ails us. To benefit from such a transfusion, we not only need to welcome more immigrants but also to adopt pieces of their culture lacking in our own — just as we have done with other (mostly European) cultures for centuries.”

This has been the Democrats under the radar strategy in California since the 1980s and they have finally succeeded in demographically swamping white voters since the year 2000

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/09/01/california-minority_n_945181.html

The Left in Great Britain has executed pretty much the same plan by inviting in massive illegal and legal immigration of Muslims into that country and placing them on the Dole.

Hugo Chavez used exactly the same tactics to seize control of Venezuela, marginalize it's productive middle class with the same demographic tsunami tactics Obama is trying to implement on our Southern border, and impose a Dictatorship.

Look and see how that has turned out for the Venezuelan people.

Not only is Obama and his allies in the Progressive Elite waging a war from the top against White America, Obama’s war against Whites is much more of real war than Americans realize or grasp the seriousness of the situation.

BTW, it's not really a “War Against Whites” - that term is just more Alinsky misdirection and divide and conquer tactics.

The real war is against the American Middle Class of all colors, races and genders because the real intent of the Progressives is to marginalize and then wipe out the Bourgeoisie Class in America

How else are they going to institute The American Caste System?

One could argue that it began when President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and reportedly lamented that, in doing so, he was assuring that Democrats had lost the South for a generation....

Or one could repeat what LBJ is credited with saying: "This'll have the n****** voting Democrat for 50 years."

Either way, it worked. The land of Gibsmedat opened it's gates on a land of milk and honey, or lemonade springs and chewing gum trees, where unicorns dumped Skittles from clouds in the sky, and everything was free--and all you had to do if it wasn't was threaten to burn and loot part of another town.

Now, the people who were set to push for self-improvement through education and accomplishment have been often undermined by those who push for gimmies and set-asides, for quotas and 'reparations' for evils allegedly perpetrated upon those long dead by those who might not have even been the ancestors of the living.
