President Barack Obama’s supporters are raising a claim of racism to quash a proposed $10 million ad-campaign that highlights the president’s personal ties to his one-time spiritual mentor Jeremiah Wright.
The pushback helps the campaign minimize Obama’s association with the controversial pastor, but it also keeps the public’s focus away from the stalled economy’s high unemployment, deficit and debt.
The information campaign must be rejected by an act of “moral leadership,” the campaign claimed in a 1:35 p.m. tweet from Obama’s official Twitter account.
Campaign manager Jim Messina also hinted that the proposed ad campaign — outlined today by the New York Times — was motivated by racism.
“The blueprint for a hate-filled, divisive campaign of character assassination speaks for itself,” Messina said in a press release. “Governor Romney has fallen short of the standard that John McCain set, reacting tepidly in a moment that required moral leadership in standing up to the very extreme wing of his own party.”

The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Them breaking out the “racism” card shows that this Wright issue was striking a cord with them.
Romney is a tool. To borrow from savage, he’s the fall guy.
Thanks Nachum.
WE WON! You know you have won as soon as the ignorant, lazy, inferior, scum of the earth play the race card.
We are racist. Thats it. Thats all they got. Boring
Its so transparent its laughable.
Well paint me surprised!
“Obama’s team suggests racism behind proposed Wright ad campaign”
They also suggest racism behind the sun rising in the east and Mitt Romney’s hairstyle.
As someone who isn't white, married a woman who is, and have 4 beautiful kids from that union....I am glad to have an authority like Messina to help me figure what is or isn't racist (snicker)
That’s the dude who melted in Indiana Jones!
This administration would claim racism if the sun rises in the morning!
But guess what, it is his own former preacher, Rev. Jeremiah Wright that is the author of the new info and noose for Obama. He's not happy with Obama and is spilling his guts about him
Watch the video at the link, and watch Hannity tonight for more playing of this tape. They had quite a bit on last night.
of course he plays the race card.
in battle, you apply your strenghths.
can 0bama play to his ‘successes’ (0bamacare, greenenergy, cap-n-tax, etc)?
no...hence the race card...
Oh now, that is funny. Is Obama’s white side claiming reverse racism?
Racism is behind the very existence of white people. It’s much like the Palestinian position: Israel’s mere existence is a mortal threat to them, and explains why as a people they have managed to achieve so little.
They just might as well come right out and say it, “If you don’t vote for Barack Obama, you’re a racist.”
Racism is clearly behind this. I mean, have you ever read any Black Liberation Theology? That’s some pretty racist stuff.
