The all white winter olympics ( the race card and MSM's tea party politics)

[Halfmanhalfamazing]

A thought occurred to me:

The complicit progressive media is incredibly quick to point out how "all white" the tea parties are, how come these liberals haven't yet noticed how "all white" the olympics are?

[Halfmanhalfamazing]

Of course the question is rhetorical, but the journalistic chattering class simply does not look at olympics-goers as a group of political enemies.

However, the 5th column *DOES* see a bunch of enemies when it looks at a tea party rally.

Maybe because Shani Davis won a gold?

[Trust but Verify]

Shani Davis

[manc]

there was some racist idiot on ESPN some time ago , maybe a year ago who said that it was a waste of time watching the event due to it being a bunch of white people with no talent

forget his name now

[rintense]

There’s also a black female bobsledder. And Hershal Walker also ran bobsled, believe it or not.

[Halfmanhalfamazing]

Ok....... well........ Shani Davis.

I’m sure the media has seen similar tea party protest pictures to the ones I’ve seen...........

Just because the winter olympics has it’s one or so token blacks, so too have the tea partiers.

*end devils advocate*
*end sarcasm*

That was Bryant Gumbel, wasn’t it?

[massmike]

You mean Bryant Gumble is slacking-off in his journalistic duties?

I think I misspelt his name.

Is this what you mean?

[Carley]

I noticed that when the national anthem was playing for Shani Davis’s gold medal.......he adopted the Obama crotch salute rather than putting his hand on his heart like the silver medal winner did.

[manc]

that’s him, thanks mike

[Halfmanhalfamazing]

Let's not forget the crowd of olympic goers, not necessarily just the athletes.

[manc]

yes he ‘s the guy.

imagine saying don’t bother watching the summer event because it’s just a bunch of black guys who can only run.

[massmike]

...of course,he was vilified throughout the media like Michael Richards,and Dog the Bounty Hunter,(...for something he said during a PRIVATE phone call),and Don Imus! </sarc>

indeed.
seems that the media have that selected outrage when it suits them.

Actually, at least one writer (I believe whose is of Bangladeshi (sp?) descent) wrote an article about the lack of people of color at the Winter Games, tbhough it seemed to be somewhat tongue-in-cheek.

The writer seemed to either forget or ignore the large number of Korean and Chinese athletes in the games.

Of course, nations with large populations of people with darker skin, are generally nations that get little or no snow, so that would explain their scarcity at the games.

I was thinking you could make a similar explanation for the relatively low percentage of black tea partiers. Blacks are about 12% of the population and about 90% lean Democrat, so you would only expect about 1% of tea partiers to be black.

Must be a Chicago thing.

Who can forget the Jamaican bobsled team?

To the left... go watch basketball for a while. Leave us alone you racists!
