"I said over a year ago that this was going to be, this presidential race, Lawrence, was going to be the ugliest, the nastiest, the most divisive, and the most racist in the history of this Republic," PBS host Tavis Smiley said on MSNBC.

How many memes does this touch? Early and often use of race card, liberal PBS, total ignorance of history (1948?) etc. Words fail!

[Puppage]

this presidential race, Lawrence, was going to be the ugliest, the nastiest, the most divisive, and the most racist in the history of this Republic,"

Yeah, the democRATS will see to that.

I am tired of this racist crap.....we have a BLACK president for God's sake!

[albie]

The race card is cooked. It’s all they have. If Cain runs, THEN what do the libs do?

[TheBattman]

Only if the Democrats choose to make it such...

[kittymyrib]

Keep playing this tattered race card, Tavis, and voters will be so sick of it by Nov. ‘12 that the only votes BO will get are the 99% of the Black vote. (That’s not a racist vote, of course.)

Like Michael Stanley Dukakiks said of the first Bush, “George, when it comes to ridicule, you win a gold medal.” We can say of Tavis Smiley, “Tavis, when it comes to racism, you win a gold medal too.”

BTW, I was on the Tavis Smiley show (it aired a couple of weekends ago) and he just kept beating the dead horse of the Founders were racist and I wouldn’t let him get away with it.

Here we go. The race card is primed and in the starting gate.

If you don’t vote for Barack, you’re a racist.

Some people have a flair for overblown rhetoric. Smiley working overtime on behalf of President Obama.

[LibLieSlayer]

tavist is a racist... a racist sees the world through a racist's filter... therefore everything tavist sees is racist.

[LibLieSlayer]

They will Bork him if he runs.

I have no doubts about this. I predicted before the 2008 election that IF Barak Hussein Obama were put into OUR White House that he would do everything possible to set race relations in this country back by at least 50 years. He would do so intentionally and with purpose.

He can’t help himself since he is a racist to his very core.

[SueRae]

Obama and Holder have set race relations back a generation. The most divisive administration in my lifetime.

[MrB]

I agree it will be the most racist election ever,
because the black population will vote for 0bama simply on the basis of his race.

[popdonnelly]

The Presidential race hasn’t started yet, and Smiley is already throwing a tantrum.

'2012 Will Be "The Most Racist" Election Ever'

Actually, I think he's right. In 2008, there were plenty who voted for 0 based on racism, but there was some hope he'd be a good President.

In 2012, one of the only reasons anyone will vote for 0 is racism (remember the 90%+ of the black vote he got last time). The only other segment really supporting him will be the anti-American vote.

All right-thinking, patriotic Americans will be supporting his opponent, whoever she may be ;), for entirely non-racist reasons.

[GoCards]

geez. Well Im proudly voting for the other guy black or white.

[laweeks]

You're right, Tavis: we have one of the most serious racist living in our White House who’s married to one too, and we have the horribly racist Dept. of Justice, the dummycrat party rife with a disgusting history of racism, add to that the race hustlers Jackson and Sharpton, and on and on and on.

So, you're right, Tavis baby!

And the party of Lincoln will sit back and allow themselves to be insulted throughout the election.

[Red Badger]

They will declare Cain an Uncle Tom and tool of the white man and continue, of course................

[sr4402]

I agree it will be the most racist election ever.

It may be more Anti-Christian, Anti-Family and Anti-American than ever before too.
