Racism is fine... unless you are a Republican!

So if, according to Democrats, Harry Reid has apologized and it is now a “done deal,” why did they carry on so long after the SC senator’s personal apology to Obama for saying “you lie”?

Harry Reid could be having sex with under aged male light-skinned pages, while watching Birth of a Nation for stimulation, and the Dems would see no reason to make a fuss.

Its all a joke, no one of these clowns has a definition of “racism” that would make any sense, and yet we continue to be led around by the nose by these evil fools. Our side plays along with this game trying to find a white person dumb enough to have uttered something stupid like Reid to go on their own holy jihad against for something they cannot accurately define.

The Left: Bending Over Backwards to Excuse Racism

Wouldn't that be bending forward?

I can just see it now. Come 2020 or so, a dark skinned black guy runs for president. And unless he gets elected, America will be considered a racist country.

Johnnie Cochran calls it racist.

Remember when this happened during the OJ Simpson murder trial?

Darden angered Cochran when he asked Heidstra if he (Heidstra) had told someone that one of the voices sounded Black. Cochran emphatically objected to the question and Ito Sustained it. However, Heidstra continued speaking. That led to Ito yelling at him to "Wait! Wait!"

The jury was then ordered to leave and Darden defended his line of questioning by pointing out that an aquaintance of Heidstra's quoted him (Heidstra) as saying one of the voices sounded Black and like O. J. Simpson.

Cochran angrily responded: "I resent that statement. You can't tell by somebody's voice whether they sound Black. That's a racist statement."

Democrats say that saying "Negro dialect" is not racist. Johnnie Cochran says that "sounding black" is a "racist statement."

Its not racist to make a reference to someone’s race. The racism in this episode, and there is plenty, lies in all the histrionics and mea culpas and overwrought apologies and in the embarrassing race obsession that the Left engages in. They find it impossible to ignore race, and they find it impossible to be casual or analytical or neutral, its always a big deal to them.

The DNC is the party of race obsession. They can’t help it; its who they are. For them its impossible to ignore and impossible to be relaxed about; every racial reference is for them fraught with peril.

Its a mistake for us to play their game and get sucked into their obsessions as we do occasionally. If what you’ve said isn’t offensive, you should never apologize. It only makes it worse; you are just feeding their obsession which is a mistake especially when you don’t share their obsession.

The excusing of Reid’s racism by the NAACP and other well-known black Americans has clearly demonstrated that “Racism” is no longer a real concern in America but has become ONLY a baseless charge to be trotted out for political purposes.
