The Hill: Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) said that it's not enough for African-Americans to levy allegations of racism against the right-leaning protesters, and that the media must look into their views.

"I want those people talked to; I want them interviewed," Waters told the liberal Bill Press Radio show in a podcast. "I want journalists to be all over those rallies and the marches with the birthers and the teabaggers."

I was thinking about this the other day. I have an idea:

How about if we just start prefacing everything we say politically with “I know I am a racist, but. . . .”

And I do mean ALL of us -— red and yellow, black and white -— as the little children’s song says.

Let’s either make the powers that be edit that ubiquitous proclamation off our every statement, or let the audience hear it repeatedly for the joke that it has become in our USA -— a USA that has become post-racial on its own free will and BEFORE we elected Obama as president.

I think “owning” the “racism slur” in such a flamboyant way, like the satirizing use a decidedly insulting term like the “N” word among friends to desensitize it and to remove its power, will help to further diffuse a slur that just doesn’t fit anymore, and finally let us relax enough to get over it.

Waters is probably the nastiest most radical racist in the Congress. There is no one worse. She is also in a district where she is politically safe. Nothing can be done about her.
She either dies in office or is convicted of a felony and those are the ways she leaves.

Is it illegal to be a racist?

No more than it used to be illegal to be a card carrying communist. Pretty much prima facie evidence of treason, but not against the law.

People like her are enough to make me a racist.

Nothing is ever good enough.

She can stick it where the sun don’t shine. (I suppose that is a racist comment too, huh, Maxie?)

Once again the socialists prove they can’t win on the merits and substance of an issue so they revert to the Saul Alinskey method of isolating, attacking and insulting anyone with a dissenting point of view. Don’t be intimidated folks! These reactions clearly show we have them on the run. Keep up the pressure! We are the majority!

What are they going to call us when racist no longer works?

And yeah...CNN...just try to stick a microphone in my face and ask me if I'm a racist.

Maxine Waters wants government to run all oil companies.

Maxine Waters warns Shell president in House committee hearing

Posted: May 23, 2008
© 2008 WorldNetDaily

A report by Fox News, captured in a clip posted on YouTube.com (Must see video! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUaY3LhJ-IQ) , showed Waters challenging the president of Shell Oil, John Hofmeister, to guarantee the prices consumers pay will go down if the oil companies are allowed to drill wherever they want off of U.S. shores.

Hofmeister replied: "I can guarantee to the American people, because of the inaction of the United States Congress, ever-increasing prices unless the demand comes down."

The Shell exec said paying $5 at the pump "will look like a very low price in the years to come if we are prohibited from finding new reserves, new opportunities to increase supplies."

Waters responded, in part, "And guess what this liberal would be all about. This liberal will be about socializing … uh, um..."

The congresswoman paused to collect her thoughts [for about 5-6 seconds this went on, while her colleagues behind her laughed].

"...would be about, basically, taking over, and the government running all of your companies..."

The oil executives responded, according to Fox News, by saying they've seen this before, in Hugo Chavez's Venezuela.

That’s perfect. It would be great if “racer” could get widespread circulation and become part of current political culture in exactly the same way “truther”, “birther”, and “tea bagger” have. It’s absolutely the correct description of these loons and they need to be ridiculed.

Maxine Waters: Press Should Probe Conservatives For Racist Views

Oh be careful out there boys and girls. The DNC is going to call out their SRM watchdogs and probe what you are thinking. Sounds like Minority Report - criminals are caught before the crimes they commit

"I want those people talked to; I want them interviewed," Waters told the liberal Bill Press Radio show in a podcast. "I want journalists to be all over those rallies and the marches with the birthers and the teabaggers."

This is Maxine applying radical techniques like she has done all along.

RULE 5: "Ridicule is man's most potent weapon." There is no defense. It's irrational. It's infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions. (Pretty crude, rude and mean, huh? They want to create anger and fear.)

RULE 12: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it." Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions.
