Newt Gingrich got one thing magnificently right last week. He called Barack Obama The Food Stamp President. Newts old; a bit behind the times. It should have been The EBT-Card President. Still, the shoe fits, and Obama should get stuck wearing it in November 2012.
The American Left, with its typical intellectual brilliance, assumed that Newt Gingrich only called Barack Obama President Food Stamp because he was black. Newt would have called a white president Captain Safety-Net instead. I remember all the times Ronald Reagan went around thanking Jimmy Carter for all the social welfare he handed out in the late 1970s. Gingrich was clearly and obviously RAAAAACIST!
David Gregory interviewed Gingrich and furrowed his eyebrows in deep and sober concern over Gingrichs use of coded language. His potential post to the Stuff Leftist White People Like website follows below.
You gave a speech in Georgia with language a lot of people could be coded racially tinged language, calling the president, the first black president, the food stamp president.
(HT:Politico).
While I typically would classify Sarah Palins philosophical beliefs as American Pragmatism and Reality Television, she can slyly go Postmodern on leftist twits with the best in the business. She Deconstructs the implicit favoritism towards those of The Caucasian Persuasion underpinning Gregorys worldview quite exquisitely below.
Well, talk about racism that was a racist-tinged question from David Gregory, Palin declared. He made it sound like that if youre black youre on food stamps and the president is referring to you being on food stamps. I think thats racist.
(HT: The Daily Caller)
And then, God Bless her, Sarah Palin did something unique. She not only pointed out that David Gregory is your typical bigoted Limousine Liberal, a veritable Ethanol Ethnocentrist. She suggests a solution for the problem that the David Gregorys, who infest the so-called journalistic profession, present. Sarah raves on below.
Why do we let the press, the media personalities get away with such? . The real issue is we have 40-something million Americans on food stamps. You know why? Because we dont have a robust economy . because government has overreached, overtaxed and overspent and got us in debt and there isnt enough private sector money out there creating jobs. That needs to be the focus, not allowing David Gregory to falsely charge Newt Gingrich as being a racist because hes making a statement of fact about how many people are on food stamps.
So how then, Governor Palin, do we reach this state of nirvana? She was totally on her game. She had that angle covered as well. More of Sarah Palin at her finest below.
Well, I think to start with, we ignore some of these reporters and their requests for us to comment and be interviewed, she said. We know going in to it what they are going to do to a conservative. So why participate in their game? Instead, candidates need to get their message out via new social media, via fair and balanced reporters who will just allow the facts to get out there. Dont participate in that goofy game that has been played now for too many years with the leftist lamestream media trying to twist a candidates words and intent and content of their statement.
(Daily Caller, ObCit).
This is why Palin is like kryptonite to these people. This interview alone is worth three columns of unsolicited gynecological theorizing from the detestable Andrew Sullivan. Tina Feys pager is going off as we speak. Governor Palin just cant be allowed to say such heretical things. Its as bad as Copernicus claiming the Earth went around the Sun.
Tedious, maundering leftists like David Gregory have probably watched two or three episodes of The Wire on HBO to learn about American urban life. They are as obsolete as The Model T. They have nothing to add to the national conversation and dogmatically report left-wing settled science. Sarah Palin was correct to recommend we avoid this type of Journalist the way hotel staff should avoid high-ranking officials with the IMF.
That’s such a GRATE idea!!!!
I’m going to change mine to REDNECK WOMAN!
I see that you have nailed the mainly-slime media’s thought processes. Bravo!
I love and support Sarah Palin, in any way she chooses to help this country.
I do think she is in trouble with working women, based on my experiences at work. And if you look at abortion statistics, many American women have had an abortion. They have a lot of cognitive dissonance about her stance on it and what it means for them if they vote for her. That has to be addressed somehow.
I hope she finds a way to reach out to all the women who haven’t made the good choices she’s made. A lot of them are pretty bitter.
I would rather vote for a polarizing figure than a non polarizing one.
She did not defend Gingrich.
She criticized Newt's Ryan remark. She defended Newt's food stamp remark.
It's called speaking the truth.
I agree! That’s an idea that should spread.
The truth is that Fox is ~relatively~ fair and balanced. Why should one not speak the truth about Fox. Why should one remove the phrase "fair and balanced" from our lexicon just because one network tends to be it while the others fail at it miserably?
One can't live in fear of false accusations. We've been doing it for too long and the results are obvious.
LOVE this! Can you provide a link to some more?
Say hello to pissant for us next time you see him, okay?
And our candidates must refuse to participate in debates run by liberals! One being planned for Jan ‘12 is with CNN. Hellllo? No. No Anderson Cooper moderating a republican debate. We need to stop this crap.
TFTP!
What Sarah needs to do when she is elected is to make Les Kinsolving her Press Secretary.
That would be justice!
Okay, I misread it as a tweet.
In any case Gregory did not ask her the question hence she could not have hit his "pitch".
GO SARAH GO!
GO SARAH GO!
You, my FRiend, are totally clueless.
Unbelievable.
