Daily Kos: Herman Cain Is The Perfect Racist Republican
NewsBusters ^ | 10 Jun 2011 | Tim Graham

Posted on 06/10/2011 3:58:27 PM PDT by mandaladon

On Friday morning, the Daily Kos blogger with the byline Seneca Doane tried to have fun with the mass defection away from Newt Gingrich, satirically offering Newt his services in defeating the other GOP candidates. He was especially vicious with Herman Cain: "I'll admit it right up front -- Cain scares me. I don't mean as an opponent; I mean as a human being." Cain, he says is the perfect racist:

Cain poses a problem, though. Cain can get away with saying more racist things than you can, because white (i.e., almost all) Republicans think that because he's Black, he can't be racist, even if he's trotting out every vicious anti-Black stereotype in the book to the delight of white onlookers. (And he will. You should let people know that he'll be your choice for HUD Secretary. The more pissed off he gets at it and denies that he'd take the job, the better. You'll tell him that you know that he wants a job and will give it his all.)

Cain's "insider racism" is a problem for you, because it takes away one of your strengths. I'm no expert on racist appeals, Newt -- I assume that Republicans have a list of people you can call for those, but I have made a study of your speeches in the past day and I have an approach that I think will fit you well: be extremely, extremely patronizing. It's one of your strengths anyway; might as well use it!

Seneca Doane went further, insisting Cain is seriously stupid and needs basic facts explained to him:

Daily KOS is on the extreme fringe of the lunatic fringe.

I will really look forward to watching the Democrats try to play the race card against Herman Cain if he wins the nomination — which I hope he does.

He will shove that race card so far up their asses that they will be coughing it up. They Dems will never survive the public ridicule they will earn if they are really stupid enough to try to label Cain as a racist.

Cain represents success through hard work, perseverance, and faith. Traits to which liberals have a natural aversion.

Liberals are beyond hope!!!

Yes, they are. They are evil. Not by accident, not by ignorance, and not by compulsion.

But by deliberate, grinning choice.

Last night Jon Stewart mocked Cain by doing a very "Amos and Andy" routine...highly offensive.

But he gets a pass, the ugly, cowardly putz...

Thanks mandaladon.

The so-called Democratic Party is the party of slavery, the party of the klan, the party of jim crow, the party of segregation, the party of the single party state...

We HAVE to use these “rules” against the Liberals.

Rules for Power Tactics:

1. Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have.
2. Never go outside the experience of your people.
3. Whenever possible, go outside of the experience of the enemy.
4. Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules.
5. Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.
6. A good tactic is one that your people enjoy.
7. A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.
8. Keep the pressure on with different tactics and actions, and utilize all events of the period for your purpose.
9. The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.
10. The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition.
11. If you push a negative hard and deep enough, it will break through into its counterside.
12. The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.
13. Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.

Any Republican who doesn’t scare liberals isn’t worth electing. Keep it up Herman Cain.

This may be the most racist thing I have read since Eric Holder's last interview.

Why is it that the Left hates any African-American who does not want to live on the Democrat Plantation?

Why do they hate anyone who wants the freedom to decide his or her own course in this world rather than the affirmative-action path? Are they actually threatened by an African-American man who can make his own way in this world?

That kind of "we are better than you" thinking is just racism, pure and simple. Yet, it is the Left who claim that it is conservatives who are the "new Klan".

I find this to be just disgusting.

Or if you speak after him, go with "That was a nice point, Herman! That was very good. So clever! I'm proud of you." The goal is to get him to snap, to turn into Sherman Helmsley doing a rant from The Jeffersons. (It was a TV show in the 1970s, Newt.)...........

This idiot doesn't even see how incredibly racist those comments are. LOL

When it comes from the Left, "racist" is simply a synonym for "conservative I can't answer rationally". That's all it is.

The leftists are the real racists. They exalt the systematic genocide of black people by abortion, for starters. They defend and enable the systematic, cold-blooded, industrial execution of 400,000 black kids in this country every year, and they have the utter, stinking, filthy hypocrisy to call conservatives "racists" ... ?? That's like the Nazis calling Winston Churchill "antisemitic".
