Bernie Goldberg and I Agree
Vanity ^ | 9 25 08 | Dick Bachert

Posted on 09/24/2008 4:59:04 AM PDT by Dick Bachert

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.

It's their pattern. When Gore lost in 2000, it was because SCOTUS stole the election. When Kerry lost in 2004, it was because he was unfairly Swift-boated. They never look at the real problem - the Dems keep running ever-more-liberal candidates. And the reason they don't look at it is ... they don't want to. They don't want to face the fact that the Dems have to move to the center to win.

I saw Bernie this am and I thought he was somewhat alarmist. However, I think the VERY important part of his comments were just how little the “media elite” understand mainstream America. This should not be overlooked in this election. Their continued attempts to attack Palin are a clear indication of just how out of touch they are. NBC is so clueless they are like some kid standing in the middle of the road with a paintball gun shooting cars going by. They, like the kid, will be stunned when a car hits them.

That streak will end this year because there isn't anyone out there who is more liberal than Barack.

I'll be alert, but it's NOT going to make me stop going where I want to go and doing what I want to do. Stay close to home? Bullsh**!!

Love for America and what it stands for is what will win this election... not racism.

Conversely, if Obama might win, incognizant of their unfettered racist leanings, his proponents shall feed their insatiable lust for power and elevate their lingering propensity towards criminality and violence beyond subordinate levels. Tyranny results in such conditions with the criminals changing the laws to self-justify their insatiable lusts.

Anyone using the election as an excuse to threaten me, my family, or my interests with harm or destruction will have their skulls exploded with a large caliber projectile. It will be a head shot, I will not miss, and I will stand at the ready to repeat until the threat is over.

Interesting observation.

I’ve become fairly convinced that Obama’s run was — and IS — a test by the anti-American sentiment of which George Soros, et al are exemplars to see how “ripe” America is for their brand of elitist, utopian socialism.

Vladimir Lenin (in the early 1920s):
“First we will take Eastern Europe, then the masses of Asia. We will encircle the last bastion of capitalism, the United States of America. We will not need to fight. It will fall as a ripe fruit into our hands.”

After they lose on 11/4, depending on the numbers, they will meet to reformulate their cynical plan for the next push to the goal line.

It has absolutely nothing to do with I.Q. level. These people are agenda driven only. They don't care how and when America goes down the tubes. They are "The Borg Media". 'Resistance is futile'!!!

They are attached at the hip to the Rat party.

Remember Kruschchev's rant? (depending on your age, maybe not). "America, we shall crumble you within!"

Well, we're as close to the 'within' scenario as we're going to get before we fall - it's called the MSM!!!!

These not-so-veiled threats are meant to intimidate voters, i.e., in order to avert a race war you should vote for Obama. It could influence some voters, especially independents.
