Twelve percent (12%) of voters nationwide believe that most opponents of President Obama’s health care reform plan are racist. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 67% of voters disagree, and 21% are not sure.
In recent days, several Democrats have suggested that racism is a factor. The most prominent to make that accusation is former President Jimmy Carter.
Eighty-eight percent (88%) of Republicans reject the notion that most of the opponents are racist. So do 78% of voters not affiliated with either major party. However, just 39% of Democrats share that view. Twenty-two percent (22%) of those in the president’s party say that most of the opposition to his plan comes from racists, and another 39% are not sure.
*snip*
Only one percent (1%) of those opposed to the health care plan believe that most of the opposition comes from racists.
Among Obama’s strongest supporters, those who Strongly Approve of his job performance, 35% say most opponents are racists, 32% disagree and 33% are not sure.
Among African-American voters, 27% say most opponents are racist, 25% disagree, and 48% are not sure.
Fifty percent (50%) of white Democrats reject the charge of racism, but 15% say it’s true.

I’m betting we get Hannity to adopt it,
perhaps Beck first...
Rush will hold off a while.
My first thought exactly.
Just a thought! What is the percentage of the U.S. population that is African American???
My initial question was really meant to be rhetorical since I kinda knew that the percent was close to the percent given in this poll for those who believe opposition to health care is racist. But, being the diligent person I am, I looked up the population percentages anyway. African Americans make up 13.4 percent (approximately) of the total population in the U.S. So, based on that 1.4 percent of African Americans do not believe opposition to health care is racist.
“O” has shown me that he is willing to steal, rob, cheat and railroad America. He ain’t worth crap, at any color! I know good people and he ain’t good people. The sooner we get rid of him and his crooked back-door politics, the better for American.
Land of the Free...Everything else you have to pay for..
Percentage of voters who say it’s “racism” = 12%
Percentage of voters who are black = approx. 12 %
Hmmmmm.
That 12% includes the state run media who have been preaching racism daily.
Yup. I have already adopted it. It fit's in perfectly with the other -er words: Truther & Birther. Now this is just me but it seems important to spell it is with a capital R so as to make it a clear noun.
One other term I think is a good one is NeoLib. Because while people can have their opinion on what or what not a NeoCon is, it was created with an anti-semitic intention on the one hand and to have a more clever way to "Nazi." So using Alinsky's tactics, use their very word and play on it. NeoLib is so much better than liberal, progressive or even socialist. It's a word we get to define and that they must disown. And it also highlights the fact that THEY are more in line with the National Socialist Party.
Whose side is the MSM on?
I think Im going to puke

BINGO!
Most of the 12%, as Richard Pryor would have put it...”Blaaaaaaaaack!!!”
There is racism in this debate and it is owned by the left.
This Chicklittle approach is really a comment of what they think of Obama.
All Presidents, but this one, have received indepth scrutiny and as President have to stand up on their own two feet.
The left however, does not think their President, or in their eyes “black” President can or should stand up to any scrutiny. Racism is implied by their attitude.
Re: “2008 Census Report says 12.8% of the population is black ... cause or correlation?”
*************
I noticed that right away as well — thanks for posting it!!! The racism expressed is, of course, black racism, of that I am 100% positive.
RE: “That leaves 75% of blacks that do believe anything said against Obama is racist and some of us have witnessed it first hand with an arrogance that makes no sense.”

Let’s face the truth, this is O.J. Simpson, Part II!
How easily they forget it was DUmocrats throwing oreos at Micheal Steel, it was DUmocrats who slandered black republicans such as Alan Keyes, Clarence Thomas, Condi Rice and Gollum Powell (untill he showed his true colors and jumped on the Obamatron express).
Most DUmocrats weren’t voting for DUh-bama because he was black...they voted for him for the empty promises of “free” gimmies:

The Democrat party has always been the party of slavery, sedition, subversion, socialism and surrender.
And I believe that 12% of voters,nationwide,are race pimps.
I agree 100% with your OJ, Part II comparison.
It is! Among the 12%...
