RACISM, RACISM, RACISM!

Throughout this campaign, we have heard the steady cries of racism ... people say that the only reason the most liberal Senator ever to run for president – a leftist Senator with a penchant for Marxist ideology – could possibly lose this election is because he is black and people are racist. As we get closer to the election, these stories have exploded into the media.

Let's go down the list of the few we got just over the weekend!

We have foreign leaders (technically a former leader) like Fidel Castro saying that the only reason million of people will not vote for Barack Obama is because of "profound racism in the United States."

In South Carolina, we have vandals spray painting "Republican means slavery" on the door of the GOP campaign headquarters. Because, to the mind of an ignorant voter with a racial chip on his shoulder, being a Republican automatically makes you a racist because you don't want Barack Obama to be president.

Please remember the idiot Whoppi Goldberg when McCain appeared on The View. She asked McCain if he were elected would she become a slave again.

Here's Time Magazine proclaiming that the John McCain and Sarah Palin are using Obama's race to make him appear "anti-American." It couldn't possibly have anything to do with his view of this country, could it?

Then we have Frank Rich in the New York Times over the weekend. Frank Rich says, "From the start, there have always been two separate but equal questions about race in this election. Is there still enough racism in America to prevent a black man from being elected president no matter what? And, will Republicans play the race card? The jury is out on the first question until Nov. 4. But we now have the unambiguous answer to the second: Yes." So there you have it. Not surprising that The New York Times publishes a column proclaiming that it is the Republicans who are playing the race card, and if Obama loses, it is because Republicans have stirred the racist pot.

Remember also other charges of racism in this campaign:
The use of the word "skinny" in referring to Obama is racist.
Using the words "community organizer" is racist.
Saying Obama – an ultra-leftist – doesn't see America the same way a conservative would is racist.
Using his middle name is racist.

Just remember my friends: This is only the beginning. When Obama becomes our (czar) President any utterance of disapproval with any proposal he floats before the congress will, of course, be racist. It is going to be a fun four years.

Before we move on, I want to point you to one other part of this column by Frank Rich. He says, "Voters are looking for a leader who might help rescue them ..." I ask you this, how on earth are you expecting your president to save you? I've said this many times ... these federal elections should not be as important as we have allowed them to become. People should not vote for the person who they think will go to Washington and solve their problems!

The problems that you should be voting on should be those in your local community, maybe even your state. But this notion that you are electing a president so he can go to Washington and "rescue" you is absurd.

AND THEN THERE WAS THIS FROM JOHN LEWIS ...

Over the weekend we heard from Georgia Congressman John Lewis. He says that the negative tone of the McCain-Palin campaign reminds him of the 1960s when Governor George Wallace fostered a hateful atmosphere in Alabama. Lewis says that John McCain and Sarah Palin are "sowing the seeds of hatred and division, and there is no need for this hostility in our political discourse."

Then the back peddling begins ... later on Saturday night, Lewis tried to say that he did not intend to compare McCain-Palin to George Wallace. Like hell and you know it. That's exactly what he wanted to do. Because any time that you can make Barack Obama appear to be the victim of his race, that makes Republicans, John McCain, Sarah Palin racists.

This is standard fare for John Lewis. I love the guy, really do. He's my congressman. But the fact is he is not exactly the brightest star in the firmament. He is a civil rights icon .. and his sole frame of reference on America, on the World, on economics, on social policy ... on virtually everything ... is race based.

A few years ago there was a relatively minor local race in the Atlanta area where a black candidate happened to be running against a white person. John Lewis actually taped (along with Atlanta's mayor Shirley Franklin and former UN Ambassador Andrew Young) a radio commercial which said that if the white guy won blacks would once again be attacked with water hoses and police dogs. Mindlessly moronic .. plainly stupid .. but sadly these things come out of the mouth of John Lewis all-to-often. He gets a pass in these parts though because of his courageous civil rights history.

It’s not much to see; the neanderthals behind it couldn’t get too creative. Just imagine solid block letters saying “Palin is a C***” (rhymes with bunt) on a flimsy t-shirt, worn by some ugly, hairy leftist POS. You can search the web for the phrase for more, if you really want. I don’t recommend it.

I AM A RACIST! I am a conservative, I do not support a socialist marxist ideology, I am against income redistribution, reparations, generational entitlement lifestyles, big government, the “new education” our children's indoctrination into radicalism paid for with our tax dollars, billions forwarded to community organizing groups to support other radical organizations plotting to undermine our country and.... Oh he's black? I didn't notice!
IT'S NOT RACISM STUPID IT'S IDEOLOGY

If Obama is not the Anti-Christ, then I believe he might be the False Prophet.

He could be the Anti-Christ, but I know he is evil. The False Prophet will be able to enable the Anti Christ, and bring about much evil upon the earth.

[Artemis Webb]

I have a feeling that you're one of those people who say “(enter name here)has lost credibility with me” very easily.

Boortz is not a conservative. He's never said he was.

[Salamander]

O’Really is just hedging his bet so that he will not be purged from the airwaves when the “ideological cleansing” commences.

[at least not right away]

I was at the rally in Richmond today for Gov. Palin. Of the 25 - 30,000 estimated attendees, I saw maybe 3 black folks. I remember one nice lady who seemed to fit it well with the others. She sat on the grass near a latino family. I just appreciated seeing her there.

This is a rally for a national candidate in a community with a high percentage of black folks. Why so few in attendance?

We all know that lots of white folks show up at Obama rallys, so that would not be racism.

Racism is when we let skin color affect how we choose to respond to someone. From what I saw today, racism is real.

If Sarah Palin were in Alaska, she would be loved on big time by the Alaska Natives. They are not racist.

I don’t think stating that he’s lost credibility for saying he’d vote for a racist to represent him is “very easily.” I haven’t listen to Boortz often. Maybe you do. He crossed a line there. Just like when J.C. Watts said he’d consider voting for Obama. When you make statements like that you lose credibility with me. Quickly, not easily.

Keeping a weather eye out for CNN here. Liberal spouse has it on. Last night, perfect Campbell Brown and an occasional Bill Schneider held forth. The crews went to a residence for able bodied (I would think) seniors. The chief topic was that of the inner racism and bias of "some" seniors.

An elderly man gave them what they wanted. Ah, says he, when asked if they would vote for Obama, they say "we hardly know anything about him". The elderly man then sneered "two years of seeing him" and they don't know him?

"I call them bigots".

I wonder if he got a gold medal for that? It seems a massive exercise in brain washing. I have never seen anything like this in fifty years of watching elections, both in England, Canada and the United States.

We have our own election tommorrow in Canada for the Federal government- I might add our own version of bias by the press. The polls, though grudging a Conservative victory have doomed and gloomed Harper. Suddenly, we find he "fell apart" in the last month,according to the polls. (sad chuckle)

You couldn't be more right in what your statement, "he will set racism and the black community back 4 - 6 - 100 decades." . It is already a risky option to discipline a minority in the workplace and there are examples of minorities being promoted just to make them "someone elses headache".

A dear friend of mine recently had a huge run-in with HR and their "Compliance" hotline idiots, after she tried to discipline a minority employee over repeated No Show/No Call absences. She is no longer allowed to discipline or review her employees work (while still remaining responsible for QA and production of her department).

This woman is(was?) the least bigotted, most tolerant and the most compassionate person I have ever known. I was never so shocked as when I told me that the easiest way to make sure she's never painted as a racist again is to only hire whites.

You mean like the Charlotet Bobcats?
