On Fox News this am, author and media critic Bernie Goldberg declared -- as have I for months -- that the media elite, who have NO understanding of the REAL America out there in "flyover country" have predicted that if Obama loses, the ONLY reason will be racism by whites. Inexperience, character, political philosophy, etc. have NOTHING to do with this election: If Obama loses, it will be because white America is STILL RACIST.
He went on to say, as some of us have been saying, that if the black community feels that they have been ROBBED of the first black president due only to his race, "This will not be a good thing."
Bernie did not predict a new, higher level of racial unrest within the black community but as much as said so by declaring that "The elite media is PLAYING WITH FIRE."
When Obama loses -- not IF -- I'd advise Americans -- especially white Americans -- to be alert to the possibility of some very serious problems here and stay close to home until things settle down.
Thanks for posting this article.
“He went on to say, as some of us have been saying, that if the black community feels that they have been ROBBED of the first black president due only to his race,”
Well, they might feel that way. If, and when, they actually have a black candidate.
After we defeat the ChicagoWay candidate, we must take our reform candidates at their word and stay after the Moron Media until they are completely discredited and financially broken! They deserve nothing less!
I videotaped the segment. He made the point that they will only believe that they've been robbed IF the election is close.
The election will NOT be close. McCain/Palin will win in a landslide.
just wait for the taxpayer pork shakedown.
we will have racebaiters demanding quota programs.
“Anyone using the election as an excuse to threaten me, my family, or my interests with harm or destruction”
OK, I have a long list of people who want to do that.
Of course, they all be white folks.
(Franken,Colmes,Pelosi,Boxer,Sebelius,Clinton,Clinton,just about any DEM politician, the list goes on and on)
Wasamader? You don't count Halfricans?... /sarc
White Americans that simply don't care what color someone is, and have zero residual guilt. To the MSM, a white American that can vote against a Marxist without even stopping to consider the Marxist's race first, is a racist.
The MSM has turn the world on its head.
Telling women what they must be = feminism
A woman choosing her own path = misogyny
Ignoring a person's color = racism
Putting color first = getting past race
Orwell certainly knew the left well.
You make a good point.
YES, we need to worry about COLOR.
BUT, it’s not the color of anyone’s SKIN that is the problem, it is the color of their PARTY (RED!)
Can't you smell the bullcrap?
Since Conservatives wouldn't vote for a Commie Democrat, no matter what the color, it follows that should the little 0 go down in flames, (and he will) it simply means ...
1) There aren't enough dead people getting their votes counted.
2) There aren't enough Afro-Americans, or pseudo Americans, in the population yet.
3) The MSM has failed miserably in their attempt to instantly change the U.S. into a third world country.
4) McCain will have won because holding ones nose has become rote to the majority of voters.
If there is any reason why this moron is not elected, you can be certain it isn't because of white Conservative bigotry.
“Just remember they know White America ( at least the conservatives ) is armed “
There is no such thing as ‘WHITE’ America. We are either just one FREE AMERICA, or we will end up nothing.
Yes, many conservatives are armed (at least at home).
So is every young black male.
Which is good, because we are all gonna need some weapons if we let Muslims,communists and terrorists take control of our country.
If you've ever inadvertently strayed near a race riot, you would rethink that. We did, in Cincinnati about 8 years ago, and it was downright terrifying. We truly feared for our lives.
“This could get ugly!”
I doubt it.
Obomber and Bidet are getting more and more ‘useless’ as time goes by.
I think those who felt strongly about having a BLACK President are beginning to see that Obama/Biden is like an ambulance full of injured nuns, running over children on bicycles, and into a train.
When the pundits are warning about racism aren’t they in fact condemning their own party? Since Republicans are going to vote Republican anyway that only leaves Democrats and Independents as the potential core of racist voters. Do they have so little faith in their own party that they brand them as bigots even before the election? It’s a pretty bizarre line of reasoning they are taking.
Cmon, Abe. . .stop beating around the bush and let us know where you stand on the issue! /sarc
I have to agree that we still have a horrifying preponderance of racism in this country. It’s found on every corner of the black community.
Don’t believe it? Well, here’s a little experiment for you: Tie a $100 bill around the neck of a black person and have him walk down the street in your average white community in the middle of the night. Now, tie a $100 about the neck of a white person and have him walk down the street of your average black community.
Who do you think is most likely to come back with the $100 bill. If you said, “The black person,” you have just belabored the obvious. If you said, “The white person,” never ask to borrow money from me.
Let’s put it this way: If you like Zimbabwe, you’ll love Barack Obama’s America.
If it is ok for Blacks to vote for a Black candidate, why is it wrong for Whites to vote for a White candidate?? Isn’t it racist forcing me to vote for a Black guy??
Pray for W, McCuda and Our Troops
They never look at the real problem - the Dems keep running ever-more-liberal candidates.
Exactly. Dems figured if they moved as far left as they could this year AND use a black man to do it, they could call all Repubs racist when he loses. The MSM will jump on this at every opportunity and pray for another civil war.
Try as I might, I can not grasp how these lefties think. I work with PhD’s . . . they are not stupid. Some are wonderful generous people and yet lean far left that a reasonable political conversation is impossible. So what makes them tick?
Here’s another thought I want to contribute.
Obama may have snorted coke and smoked pot. But he doesn’t have a history of violence.
Now one of his alleged mentors does. Ayers. And he’s WHITE.
The CODE PINKOS. All WHITE. (well, in skin color anyway).
I am concerned that if McCAIN/PALIN win, there will be some rioting, but I would bet not a one of them will be ‘black’.
You know the black caucus in Congress.. the recriminations of not Honkifiying Obama enough.. would be precious to watch.. or the Darn'ification of running a Halfrican instead of full blooded Rap artist from the Hood..
