A Politico reporter has suggested that racism was behind Neil Munro's questioning of President Obama at the White House yesterday. Saying "it's very, very difficult to place race outside of this context," the Politico's Joe Williams claimed racially-motivated direspect of PBO is part of a pattern among conservatives, citing Rep. Joe Wilson, Arizona Governor Jan Brewer, and the Tea Party.

Oh, brother. Joe Williams is the REAL racist here. People who see racism everywhere are, by definition, racists.

If you are a racist, racism explains everything.

If you DARE to question THE MESSIAH, or make him look bad in any way, YOU MUST BE A RACIST!!

If you question his questionable past in any way, YOU MUST BE INSANE!

I know it was a LONG time back, but when did we cede control of the language to the Radical Democrats?

I sooooo hope they keep this up. I talk with more and more people, of ALL colors all the time that are discovering how asinine this is. One of the things I’ve heard most is some variation of “What’s wrong with these people?”

It’s really a thing of beauty. In their quest to brand anyone disagreeing/questioning the Dems/Obama as racist, they are alienating their target audience and opening their minds to what the right has said for years.

And yes, this includes black people. The blowback is going to be epic.

Once the word “racism” was redefined by the Marxists, this kind of crap was inevitable...

“If you are against Obama, you are a Racist.” Better get used to that as you are going to be hearing it a lot between now and November. If Obama loses the election you are going to hear a lot more of that in the post election analysis. Just get used to it you “RACISTS”!

The biggest racists are the men and women of color, the word racist brings untold power and riches.
