Dems on playing the race card: 'You ain't seen nothin' yet'
AmericanThinker ^ | September 14, 2009 | Rick Moran

A sign of desperation? Can't see it any other way. The idea that Obama's political opponents are motivated by racism will apparently now be "mainstreamed" into the Democratic party's talking points against conservatives.

It's one thing for liberal bloggers and pundits to casually drop the "R" word in trying to smear administration opponents. But it appears that the race card will become an official meme of the Democrats when attacking their opponents.

"As far as African-Americans are concerned, we think most of it is," said Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson (D-Texas), when asked in an interview in between sessions how much of the more extreme anger at Obama is based upon his race. "And we think it's very unfortunate. We as African-American people of course are very sensitive to it."

"It's hurting the spirit of this country," Johnson said, citing concerns about what the rest of the world may think about a powerful nation where a significant segment of the population does not accept their elected leader as legitimate.

Isn’t it a little odd the party of the KKK would be playing the race card all the time?

Was this guy or gal complaining about how much it was hurting the country when half the country was claiming Bush wasn't their president? And we conservatives (with a few exceptions i suppose) aren't even saying that to boot. Only Mr. or Ms. Eddie Bernice Johnson is saying that.

It seems Eddie Bernice does not like having community activism applied to their favorite topic; now that they have had a good dose of it, they cry foul. I guess Bobo used up his race card or he would exploit it.

What would you expect from a member of the politically corrupt Clown Universe; heavily relying upon Marxist of Queensbury sneak, cheat and liar tactics!

What happened to “Dissent is Patriotic?”

The racism meme is backfiring badly.

It will continue to backfire as they flog it.

It should be brought up in conversation every time by saying “Some will say it’s racism, but the facts are:” and list them.

Use the same tactics Zero uses.

What has been, can always be again ... I wouldn’t put it past them to try.

Our founders knew the real responsibility for keeping our republic lies with the people.

I said exactly the same thing back in 2001. Of course, then it was George Bush who was “selected, not elected”, and the dems where in all a tizzy. They didn’t seem to care about the country, its spirit, or its reputation then.

Good. I will have as much concern for this jacka$$’s worries as they did for Pres. Bush.

If we had a conservative black president, the racists would be the very people crying racism. The race pimps who have built careers creating racial tension where there was none are calling the people who place idealism above racist ignorance racists. It’s in the NeoCom play book. When losing an argument, resort to slander.

Johnson also knows that their majority won’t stand absent the support of 95% of black voters. This solid block of 25 million is what keeps the Democrats in power.

This is great news. When you use the race card, you automatically lose the argument and the debate. Same as when you call your opponent a Nazi—or worse, use violence instead of words.

This would be an admission of utter defeat by the Left. And stating that fact (and the reasons for it) should be our sole response.

Probably the reason why Powell didn’t run for the nomination in 1996. He would have got the same treatment that Thomas has.
