We would probably laugh out loud if a participant in a formal debate contest accused the other team of being racist. Why? Because it would be a clear indication the participant had no viable counter to the other team - a sure sign of defeat - and was using the charge at a hail mary attempt at humor. Yet I watch aghast at the spectacle of no less than Jimmy Carter accusing all people who have oppositions to Obama's policies of being racist. Of course Carter is not alone; he is in the company of many other Democratic politicians, columnists, and the individuals commenting online.
One individual responded to an opinion piece on CNN.com, which declared the opposition to Obama wasn't rooted in racism, by saying that any opposition to welfare legislation was racism, "...why don't you people get this?" If I were Ross Perot I would be recalling my failed presidential campaign wherein I was eternally chastised for referring to the black community as "you people" and wondering why the reciprocal isn't racist. However, conservatives are not afforded any grace - even, perhaps especially, when we're correct.

We all know that, having the exact same policies as Obama, he won re-election in a landslide, just because he's white, right?
Cheers!
Jimmy Carter, not content with being the worst President of the 20th Century, is intent on being the worst human being of the 21st Century.
Carter wants to make sure Obama only has a single term like him.
Carter knows that the more the charge of racism gets out the more the people who are protesting against Obama’s policies will be p!ssed off they are DEFAMINGLY labeled racist.
The ones who aren’t even protesting against Obama who were foolishly hoping for a post racial atmosphere after the US elected its 1st black president will throw up there hands in disbelief that it got even worse.
Thye will then bring down their hands and punch a ballot for anybody who is a non-black.
This is great!
Always remember that with the Left it's always -- always -- about power. They will do anything, say anything and create anything to achieve and maintain it -- even if in doing so it hurts America.
