The group is calling upon President Obama to condemn all efforts to derail legitimate public debate, specifically including this effort to stifle debate with race-baiting tactics.

Gonna take a keg’r to get this one fixed.
Wow! (I mean that with mouth wide open)

Yes, I know. Problem is we never hear about them in the snews.
Krugman acted “stupidly”.
The author of this is FReeper “bocopar”. Thanks to Bob Parks for another excellent article, and thanks for posting this adanaC.
“Paul Krugman is a vile race baiting partisan bigot.”
Very true.
“Ergo, when all else fails, parade out the race card and attempt to incite blacks into becoming the useful idiots.”
Indeed!
This isn’t the only group in the ‘black community’ that has spoken out. The media just ignores them. Jesse Peterson of Bond. Terry Anderson, TheTerryAndersonshow.com, Thomas Sewell, and many more.
OUTSTANDING post! Thanks. Thanks Bob. There you go naming names again...and pics too of great Americans! Thank you sir. OUTSTANDING (as usual)!
I'm sure he will git RIGHT on that!
This white guy is ready to stand with Project 21 on this issue.
Never heard of Mychal Massie, but he sounds like a fine fellow.
