LMAO!
Ouch. The truth can be a summ-ana-batch.
If America is ever going to rid itself once and for all of the scourge of racism and its damaging effect on our Nation, it will be because America's blacks finally understand that whatever they may benefit from playing that vile card, the negative impact its play has on their lives and families is just not worth sustaining the charade.
Man up, pull that up-turned extended palm or raised clenched fist back and put those hands to work doing some good instead. That is the only path to the American Dream, regardless of race.

I just don’t see a better option than ignoring the screams of racism. After all, you really can’t fight something that doesn’t exist.
He actually counters this statement later on, and points out that many Blacks vote Democrat simply because they have been told to do so. The perception is that Democrats help them but Republicans hurt them. Hmmm? If that's the case, why has the War on Poverty and similar programs passed during Democrat-control Congresses failed to change the relative position of Blacks in the economic spectrum? The reason is because Democrats need to make them dependent on them in order to maintain power. Contrary to the Democrat belief that encouraging private enterprise is a bad thing, Republicans know that a rising tide lifts all boats. Alas, the GOP doesn't know how to get this message across.
No mention of Herman Cain! I wonder what will happen to the accusations of racism defense if he becomes our nominee?
“America’s Tea Party Hurt By Racism”
Correction: “America’s Tea Party Hurt By FALSE ACCUSATIONS of Racism”
Its kinda funny really. The political figures that genuinely excite the GOP base the most are two women (Palin and Bachmann) and two black men (Cain and west).
The democrats on the other hand are stuck with one likely candidate who happens to be more or less black and a complete and utter proven failure. Their most likely potential challenger is Clinton and she doesn’t excite the democrat base much at all.

If by "He" you refer to the author, please point out where "he" does this. I don't see it anywhere in the article. Nowhere.
Please, show me.

All that evil needs to prevail is for good men to stand by and do nothing. Please don't advocate for doing nothing. If you don't want to fight it, fine. Stay home. But don't discourage those who would defend that which is worth fighting for.

So what if the tea parties are mostly white? Anything that happens to be “mostly white” is now considered evil. Just why is that? Maybe the ones calling the tea parties racist because they’re mostly white are the racists. Seems to me many of the tea partiers are so busy bending over backwards to prove they’re not racist that they’re not much good for anything else. I heard a black man say once, “The only danger I was in at the tea party was being hugged to death.” Well, of course! Tea partiers are so terrified of the “R” word, they’re thrilled to see any black enter one of their tea parties. They pounce upon him, lavish him with attention, and usually drag him to the bandstand so he can give a speech. They make sure he’s in the pictures so they can say, “See? We’re not racist!” This is why the “R” word has so much power and sting...because we let it! We grovel and cower at the very sound of it. When we stop doing that, it will lose its power and we can get on with doing what needs to be done.
Is he? We still haven't seen his Kenyan BC, only forged CGI PDFs.
I'm betting his REAL BC says ARAB!
The reason why the Tea Party crowds are predominantly Caucasian is because the vast majority of America's blacks still back a president who, by any measure, is arguably one of the biggest disappointments... even failures... in this diverse nation's rich and multi-cultural history. It is also the case that the black community who continues to support this Oval Office disaster largely do so for one reason only: The color of his skin. And that, simpy put, is racist. The NAACP has proven itself to be a racist organization, which is very different from being a 'racial' organization.
I think it is high time we used some of Alinsky's tactics on the left. Here are his tactics modified for use by the right.
1. "Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have." This is what Palin is doing. She refuses to let the left take away her power. She acts like they don't exist or in some cases, toys.
2. "Never go outside the expertise of your people. When an action or tactic is outside the experience of the people, the result is confusion, fear and retreat.... [and] the collapse of communication.Follow Reagan's example of a handful of core topics. In this case it should be undoing Obama an dfixing our financial house.
3. "Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy. Look for ways to increase insecurity, anxiety and uncertainty. (This happens all the time. Watch how many organizations under attack are blind-sided by seemingly irrelevant arguments that they are then forced to address.) This should be easy. The left knows nothing about economics and free markets. When they give an answer, make them explain further and further until they are exposed as the posers they are.
4. "Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules. You can kill them with this, for they can no more obey their own rules than the Christian church can live up to Christianity." In this case make the left live up to its views on things like racism. Point our the whiteness of their media networks like MSNBC, the devastation Obama's policies have had on black communities. The effects of abortion and welfare on black families. How the poverty pimps are harming rather than helping.
5. "Ridicule is man's most potent weapon. It is almost impossible to counteract ridicule. Also it infuriates the opposition, which then reacts to your advantage." This is what is working on the Wiener fiasco. We should mock and laugh at Obama's policies as foolish and explain why. Obama really hates being mocked and it will lead to him losing it publicly.
6. "A good tactic is one your people enjoy." We are already doing this... Tea Parties!! We also have Palin toying with the left.
7. "A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag. Man can sustain militant interest in any issue for only a limited time...." We can't keep saying "tax cuts" without explaining how they will help the individual and the country. The term has been so over used that the common person fails to understand the true meaning.
8. "Keep the pressure on, with different tactics and actions, and utilize all events of the period for your purpose." Palin seems to be a master at this lately. Trump did it too. I think the person that can pull this off the best will win the nomination.
9. "The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself." Trump did this with the BC. The debt limit is another. Find something that the left loves and protects and squeeze it until they give.
10. "The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition. It is this unceasing pressure that results in the reactions from the opposition that are essential for the success of the campaign." More Tea Parties and protests for right causes. Also out show the left. Never back down unless you are giving the left room to stumble and fall down.
11. "If you push a negative hard and deep enough, it will break through into its counterside... every positive has its negative."I may be biased by I don't see many negatives on the right. I am not sure how to pull this one off.
12. "The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative."Unless we fill the vacuum of a failed marxist policy, they will create a worse one to fill the void. We cannot wait. We need to be prepared.
13. Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. They have done that with Palin, Rush, Newt and others. It's our turn. Focus on one lefty after another. Take them down one by one. First Obama, then Frank, Pelosi,..... until they are dismantled. I would also try to break Soros's financial structure. Make him broke.
I am not sure if they will all work but some could. We need to send these commie democrats back to the rocks they crawled from under.
