“Mitt Romney he’s speaking to a … segment of the population who does not like to see people other than a white man in the White House or any other elected position.Let’s be real clear about it. We know what’s going on here, and some people may be afraid to say it, but I’m not. I’m not afraid to say it. He’s speaking to that friends out there who do not want to see anybody other than a white person in a leadership position. … This is not about anything other than they don’t want President Barack Obama in office … . ~~Louise Lucas~~ Virginia state senator.

    This kind of puts a damper on your theory. He helped Kennedy get elected. and voted Demoractic

    Weighing the niece’s claim against King’s son’s, Honey’s and Garrow’s, and Goings’ speculation that he might have had to register as a Republican even though he always voted the Democratic ticket, it seems to us that the preponderance of the evidence shows that a claim that Martin Luther King Jr. was a Republican is simply False.

    Clinton did DIDDLY SQUAT aside from embarrass the hell out of us with his oval office blow jobs, and tossing bombs at Yugo facilities to take attention off of said blow jobs. he took office at the top wave of Reaganomics and spent it through AND created HUGE spending initiatves that killed the Bush budgets.

    Liberals know they cannot win on truth, they know Obama has failed miserabely. Poll after poll shows the American people believe they are worse of under Obama.

    The only thing Obama has going for him, is his promises of more entitlements and Romney's inability to connect with the American people..

    Liberalism is the ideology of hate and division. Without truth and only failure to run on, all they have left is desperation. Hence the race card. Make no mistake, Liberals will hammer on the race more and more as we get closer to the election. We will see Liberal hate/intolerance in full swing by November.

    For those of you who aren't old enough to remember YOU weren't around when this WORKED and worked almost every time it was used..

    YOU don't KNOW that there was a time when you could shut just about anybody up bhy just calling them a racist.. DIDN'T matter WHAT the subject was or how valid the arguments were in the debate,, the conversation ALWAYS came to an ABRUPT halt when the race caed was tossed out there..

    It USED to be their most potent weapon.. It USED to be their ONLY weapon.. To say that it is all they have NOW is to miss the point.. it's ALL they EVER had but at ONE point in time,, it was all they needed..

    Thank GOD that is no longer the case today.. Well,, NOT as bad as it once was,, anyway..

    We STILL have a President who,, in 2008,, the LEFT was out there saying " If Obama isn't elected then America is RACIST "..

    it STILL seems to work for FAR too many people..

    They have been taught to use it as much as possible. It is kind of similar to posing the question, "Have you stopped beating your wife yet?" There is no correct response. The same thing is the case when they call you a racist. If you deny it, they claim you are lying because you are afraid to admit you are racist, if you agree, then you prove their point.

    It's a given that Obama is only the president because of his skin color. And that his admission to Harvard was based on Affirmative Action. And that he is a racist (as confirmed in both of his books). Why do Democrats use the race card? Because it's all they've got to defend Obama's utter failure for the last four years in office.

    Some people in the right wing always screams race card to cover their racism. They think that if they use that term it will shut people up, and they can go on ranting. Now I do believe it is a minority of the right wing that are racist, but the ones that are use the that term hoping to shut anybody up that points out their racism!!!

    The problem is that a lot of people on the left have thrown around the term so much that it has lost any real meaning and, as a result, when someone is truly racist, attempting to call them out has no affect. The left and left in the media that used that tactic during the '08 election and continue to ues it are the ones to blame because they have cried "racist" so often that people are tired of hearing it when no proof is provided.

    Some people disagree with the President's policies and/or his actions. Big shocker there! There have and always will be people that disagree with every president's policies and actions. Race has nothing to do with it. Crying racisism everytime someone disagrees with him has turned off a lot of people and made the term meaningless to most people.

    Obama, the candiate, didn't run on his race in '08. A major problem is that he allowed and even encouraged his team and supporters to campaign against McCain based on his race. He encouraged them by not addressing it and stating that it should stop. When he took it off the table for himself, he should have been the kind of leader that took it off the table for his supporters. Then, when someone was truly being racist they could be seen for what they were.

    Funny, I laugh when people that cannot argue their point or cannot defend Obama's actions or policies shout "racism". I think people that run around shouting "racist" in political debates without any real proof are probably pedophiles trying to distract others from themselves.

    Sorry, continue on with what you were saying.

    BTW, I voted for Obama in '08 and will be voting to FIRE Obama in Nov.

    Well if you would take your head out of the sand you would see the racism, or maybe you are just in denial, and don't want to see it.
  • Moneyman fudge35 2012/07/30 15:22:23

    Let me see if I have this right. You see the color of Obama's skin first then see him as President, therefore, if anyone disagrees with him or his policies, you see them attacking a black man and therefore must "call out racism"?

    Sounds like you, and others that do the same thing, are actually the racists that are just trying to hide their own racism of seeing him as first and foremost as a black man.

    And you wonder why those false attacks of racism on others have no traction?

    First, it sounds like you need to find some new people to hang around. Just a suggestion.

    Second, I am not about to say that there is no racism still around. People of any color can be racists. There is racism towards the President as well as from him and his administration (look to the DOJ for proof). I do think that Obama pissed away a great opportunity to unite not only our politicians on areas that everyone could agree but also the country as a whole as the leader of the country. Instead, I have seen him be very divisive, even on issues he didn't need to be. He has used class warfare, politics, political games, and race to divide the country far more often than not.

    If you, or anyone, wants to claim that an attack of Obama or his policies is based on racism, AND you have proof of that, then by all means, call it out. If you have real proof, even I would back you up regardless of my opinion of his job performance. Overall, the people that have claimed racism in defense of Obama never offer any proof (probably because they don't have any to offer). They are no better than those "journalist" that started the "call them racists, even if it is not true" crap in '08. They just want to change the subject and not address the issue(s) the other person is attempting to discuss. That, or they can't defend Obama's record and have nothing else but desperation; at least that is what it appears to be.
