As NewsBusters has been reporting for months, Obama-loving media are busily depicting every criticism of the Administration as being racially motivated.
On Saturday, Don Lemon brought on a number of guests on "CNN Newsroom" to discuss how the recent controversy surrounding rapper Common's appearance at the White House is all because he's black.

I honestly don't understand how these people don't get handed their lunch, verbally, when they make those kinds of indefensibly stupid and biased comments. There are so many legitimate and succinct answers with which to cut their comments into shreds, but they are seldom wielded.
Did conservatives have a problem with Condie Rice or any of the black Bush appointees? Did conservatives have a problem with Clarence Thomas? Conservatives don't like the idea of Bill Ayers or Michael Moore visiting the White House either. Is that because they're black?

WOW and all that high minded lecturing to US about civility after a shooting of a congressperson near the border.

Maybe someone should call out CNN for ignoring the candidate who is considered the winner of the SC Republican Primary Debate: Herman Cain. If they keep ignoring Cain when talking about potential Republican presidential candidates, Is it Raaaaaaacist?

Are liberals angry because young people are rebelling against the liberal elite establishment?

"OTOH, how many people voted FOR Obama because of his skin color? "More than we'll ever know. And most of them that did for that reason are very, very sorry.
To: chessplayer
Conservatives have already stated - ad infinitum - why they were upset with Commons appearance in the White House...had nothing to do with color, whatsoever.
CNN is just chiming in with obama, reid, and other leftist who are TRYING TO START A RACE WAR. Civil disturbance equals (in obamas mind) Martial Law. Martial law cancels regular law and Constitutional protections for citizens and...it cancels elections. With obama "leading from behind" he's going to need some form of cheating to stay in office, just like he cheated to GET in office.
Just like he needed to kill bin Laden in order to kill the COLB story, he'll do what is necessary to maintain power.
He's exhibited the signs of being capable of doing this over and over again...be afraid, be very afraid.

These liberals are the racists and they can’t even see it!!!! They’re the ones who keep talking about the color of his skin. Deep down inside they must not like black people if they think that is the only legitimate reason to criticize them. Idiots!

If Bush were President and Common were “white” and had a R in front of his name the “justice brothers” would lead the protest

To: chessplayer
It is hard to imagine that the White House is surprised by this controversy. They must be hoping to increase the black turnout by provoking racial controversy. Perhaps they figure that whites are self-hating enough for this strategy not to backfire.
To: chessplayer
First lesson in reporter school,if someone disagrees with you it’s racially motivated.

Lets hope that they realize it before next election.

Okay, we have had our first black president and that is great. Now, lets get down to business, get serious, and turn this country around.
One of Obama’s major flaws is that he doesn't have a clue about how the private sector works and therefor the economy.
Note to Obama:
You can “stimulate” all day long, but if the jobs created are not sustainable, then it is a waste of money. BTW, pouring stimulus money in the public sector isn't going to cut it. Repairing streets, public works, etc. is a temporary job — once the hole in the street is patched, the job is gone. You need to figure out how the create PERMENANT jobs.
And no — the private sector is not your enemy. The private sector needs to be nurtured and encouraged to grow because that is where the jobs are AND where revenues come from — you destroy the public sector and you have no way of following through on the promises that you have made.

I dont remember conservatives being upset with Sammy Davis visiting the Nixon White House, so thats not it at all. And, if Sammy was a lib, he kept it quiet.
