Liberals tend to devote a significant portion of their daily lives to proving how not racist they are. One particularly expedient way of doing this is to declare that something a conservative has said or done is totally racist, and then to place oneself in opposition to the thing that was racist: “See, I’m not a racist!”

As result, the List of Things That Are Racist has grown incomprehensibly long. The Free Beacon‘s devotion to public service obligates us to provide this list (not exhaustive by any means) of what liberals do and do not consider to be racist.

Saying the word “Detroit”.

Liberals tend to devote a significant portion of their daily lives to proving how not racist they are.

People that are obsessed with racism are racists, by definition.

[jiggyboy]

That reminds me, gotta shine up my “Dog Whistle” for the next meeting.

[IronJack]

And, to close the tautological loop, denying that you’re racist is ... racist.

[ROCKLOBSTER]

Chinaman is.
Englishman, Frenchman isn’t.

[Altura Ct.]

Breathing as a white person is generally racist.

[Tigerized]

I’m too old to care anymore. Go ahead, call me a racist.

That epithet has been so overused, that it’s completely lost it’s power over those of us who have grown tired of being bound and gagged by political correctness.

Liberals tend to devote a significant portion of their daily lives to proving how not racist they are.

And I take every opportunity I get to remind them that the slave owners, Confederates and segregationists were RATs, and that the Abolitionists became "The Republicans".

[jiggyboy]

Not exhaustive, indeed:

- supporting / voting for a black person (e.g., Herman Cain), if you’re white
- supporting Voter ID
- disagreeing with Obama on any issue
- describing Obama as “slim” or “skinny”
- noting that Obama plays basketball

ah here we go, about a dozen more here too:

oops a couple of duplicates there, dunno how I missed them as I was specifically looking for them

[jiggyboy]

oops I forgot, per Alan Colmes and many others, the Secret Service is racist too, that’s why there are so many “intruders” the past few years:

Sounds as if someone is a “Victicrat”. (New word I learned last week)

***Chinaman is.
Englishman, Frenchman isn’t.***

I found a chink in my armor. I told him to take it off.

Addressing Bush’s Brain author Wayne Slater, Matthews tore into what he saw as GOP efforts to ensure that the president’s legacy is a mixed one..."They refer to him as ‘Obama.’ They don’t say the ‘the president."

Of course titling your book that way is just fine, if it's a Republican president.

[Fred Hayek]

Any independent thought is racist

[Paladin2]

Confusing skin color with race.

[Scrambler Bob]

I’ll cut you some slack.

Breathing out is OK. It is breathing IN that is racist.

[Scrambler Bob]

Where the HECK are Oreos???

[liberalism is suicide]

Oh, my,my. We must find a way to do penance for our whiteness. Maybe rebuking our white parents for giving birth to us would be a good way. Then maybe the Kingdom of Equalitaria will reward us amply.
