Racism simmers below surface on health care

During the showdown over healthcare reform, some of the members of the Tea Party took off their masks.

Many African Americans had already suspected some of these people are more opposed to the skin color of the man in the White House than they were to the president's political ideology.

This is a ploy to try and tarnish the Tea Party. I am skeptical that any of these things happened. I want to see proof.

“Racism simmers below surface on health care “

Finally! An article that looks into Obama’s and the dimocraps institutionalized racism.

What?

When all you have is a hammer....

There seems to be an all out blitz bent on discrediting the opposition to the Dems agenda.
Recognize the attempt to morally sanction the opposition, as a warfare technique,

Racism?

Not even close.

But it is true that most productive, sane whites are tired of the racist, trillion dollar income redistribution scheme that has been going on since the 1960’s.

The only racism that I’ve heard concerning the election of 0bama was

“you’re gonna be ruled by the black man, now, cracker!”

FOX was unable to find any video verifying this accusation.

Maybe it did happen, but video was taken all along that ‘march’ and there is no evidence of it.

I wouldn’t put it past the dems to place a liberal stooge in the crowd to actually anonymously do this to slime the Tea Party and other protestors. If it DID happen.

Yup, the unborn black babies are going to get slaughtered by this health care bill - a disaster facilitated by the Left.

Isn’t it amazing to see this same story on the front page of every big city news rag today?

There is no such thing as racism. There used to be, but progressives have so abused the word that they have denuded it of any real meaning.

All the word racism means now is to identify someone progressives don't like.

Mary whats-er-name and the Chicago Sun are race baiters.

IF--and a big IF, there was any racism, it was probably a plant. Even given a couple of bad apples really attending the Tea Parties, so what? It doesn't follow that Tea Partiers are thusly all racist.

You are right---this meme has seen its day. Most of the country is sick to death of it.

I was watching MSNBC roll out this new theme. I think they are preparing for Immigration reform that Obama promised House Hispanic caucus for their HR votes on the Senate bill. I even wonder if they used democrat plants to make these stories.

It sets the stage for them, they plan on “The same racists that opposed HR now oppose immigration reform”. However, pushing amnesty with >10 % unemployment seems like a loser for Obama. Add free health care.
