Matthews, Walsh Unsubtly Accuse Obama Opponents Of Racism
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Terry Jeffrey walked away the winner on Hardball this afternoon. Despite being double-teamed by Chris Matthews and Salon's Joan Walsh, the editor-in-chief of our sister publication CNSNews.com had the others admitting that the Obama admin has gone too far with the cult-of-personality way it's pitched the president's speech to schoolchildren.

But that didn't prevent Matthews and Walsh from unsubtly accusing PBO's opponents of racism, archly claiming that the motive for the opposition to the president is his "background."

It is his background. He was raised by Communists.

Color and race have nothing to do with ideology. And 0bama’s ideology is anti-life. But he forgot we still believe in the unalienable RIGHT to Life, Liberty and Property/Pursuit of Happiness.

His 0bamaCare denies babies’ rights to life and pursuit of happiness. Death Counseling denies the elderly of Life, Liberty (to choose where to live and die) and Property/Pursuit of happiness.

0bamaCare is UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

(They don’t have to know that we know that they abrogated the Constitution in 1913.)

Use a bit of Alinsky here. Make THEM admit to their agenda.

RULE 4: “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.”

The Constitution must and should always be the rule by which we must demand our adversaries to abide by. There is no room for interpretations and diversion from the clear articles and amendments. We must know the rules, we must know the Constitution by heart, we must be relentless in bringing up the rules and make them live and act accordingly. Refusal to do so will place them in an uncomfortable situation that will make them weaker and weaker. If we manage to make them aware that the rules are there for them to follow and obey, they have one of two options: obey them or be removed. There are constitutional means by which we the people can hold our representatives and senators accountable for not honoring the oath of office they took when they were sworn in. And, based on the relentless and irresonsible manner in which our Constitution has been manipulated and distorted, even ignored thus far, we must take clear and concise action to stop them from doing more damage to our Country that what they have already done. The Law is on our side and we must find the proper way to enforce it.

Zero’s poll numbers are tanking rapidly and no amount of calling Racism is going to change the fact that the American people have awakened to the obvious and deliberate destruction of our country by Obama, his Gestapo, and his cohorts in the US Congress. Crying RACISM is a Liberal tactic whose day has gone. Isn’t gonna work. The tsunami is rolling and they’re toast regardless if Zero is black, pink, purple, red, or blue. He’s disliked and becoming loathed and that is growing every five minutes. The American people aren’t playing games and the MSM would be wise to realize that.

How about Chrissy's slip of the tongue when he said:

....and the White House doesnt know how to respond - theres a problem there. When are we gonna learn how to avoid being tackling dum..........when are they gonna avoid being tackling dummies for the far right?

Is Chrissy wishing he were a part of the communications team?

That’s what they fall back on every time. They have nothing to debate. Can only call names and call everyone racist when things don’t go their way. Ho hum...hey crissy...you are BORING!

After the disastrous season they’ve had I fully expect to see a shake up in the WH communications team (because it’s NEVER going to be BHO’s fault). Remember when Clinton decided to bring in Gergen as his ‘Republican’ voice? They will find someone the left considers “Republican” or “conservative” to advise.
