Well, you can count on Democrats accusing conservatives of racism the way you can count on the sun to rise in the morning.
In remarks decried by Republicans, former president Jimmy Carter told NBC’s Brian Williams in an interview Tuesday that he believes race is at the core of much of the opposition to President Obama.”I think an overwhelming portion of the intensely demonstrated animosity toward President Barack Obama is based on the fact that he is a black man, that he’s African American,” Carter said. “I live in the South, and I’ve seen the South come a long way, and I’ve seen the rest of the country that shared the South’s attitude toward minority groups at that time, particularly African Americans”
Continued Carter, who is famously from Georgia: “And that racism inclination still exists. And I think it’s bubbled up to the surface because of the belief among many white people, not just in the South but around the country, that African-Americans are not qualified to lead this great country. It’s an abominable circumstance, and it grieves me and concerns me very deeply.”
I wonder if you’ve looked in a mirror lately, Jimmy. Maybe you’ve figured out that most of America despises you on account of the color of YOUR skin.
But it was never about your melatonin level, Jimmy. It was about the fact that you were an incompetent nincompoop who ran the country into the ground.
Same as Barack Obama is doing now.
Allow me to provide you with a smattering of articles that I have written over the past months to demonstrate how desperately wrong you truly are:
Messiah Obama Really IS The Second Coming… Of Jimmy Carter
Jimmy Carter Addresses Barak Obama’s Convention: How Appropriate
Carter-era Economist Sees Deja Vu In Barack Obama
The Obama ‘Crisis In Confidence: Welcome Back, Carter’
So you see, Jimmy, you incompetent and morally-blind disgrace, the reason we despise Obama isn’t because he’s black and therefore not qualified to lead. We despise Obama becuase he’s like YOU and therefore unqualified to lead.
And just how did Barack Obama ever get elected in the first place if people really thought the way you now demonically accuse them of thinking, anyway?
Polls show that Americans overwhelmingly disagree with your view, just as they came to overwhelmingly agree that your entire presidency was a pathetic joke:
The suggestion that race is behind criticism of Obama has been made by New York Gov. David Paterson and Reps. Charlie Rangel of New York, Diane Watson of California and Hank Johnson of Georgia, among others.
But a poll released Wednesday by Rasmussen Reports showed that just 12 percent of voters believe that most opponents of Obama’s health care reform plan are racist. The survey of 1,000 likely voters, taken Monday and Tuesday, found that 67 percent disagree with that contention, while 21 percent are not sure. The survey had a margin of error of 3 percent.
Rush Limbaugh boldly predicted that an Obama presidency would make race relations worse. In a call from an Obama voter who said he voted for Obama BECAUSE of his race, Rush Limbaugh responded:
RUSH: I said — you must have missed it — this is what I want to ask you about. Well, no. Several occasions I had people who were very hopeful, as you expressed you were hopeful, that the election of the first African-American president would end or really crimp racial strife in the country. People asked me if I thought this and I said no. It’s going to exacerbate it. It is going to make it worse. We are going to have more race related problems in this country than we have ever had. Did you hear that and not believe me?
CALLER: Well, I did hear that. I took it into consideration. But I also had the possibility of McCain getting in as president, and all he’s done is trash Republicans his whole life, so I didn’t feel we were gaining much. It might just be a slower —
RUSH: No, no. I understand that, but I mean you were hoping, this is a pretty big reason to vote for Obama. You were hoping —
CALLER: Yes.
RUSH: — that the elephant in the room that’s dividing this country along racial lines would be obliterated. That’s the primary reason for voting for him, at least as you said.
CALLER: Correct.
RUSH: You heard me say that that would not happen. You must have doubted me.
And, yep, he was right, as a CNN poll revealed:
During the 2008 election, 38 percent of blacks surveyed thought racial discrimination was a serious problem. In the new survey, 55 percent of blacks surveyed believed it was a serious problem, which is about the same level as it was in 2000.
Candidate Barack Obama was discovered to have sat for 23 years in a hard core racist and anti-American church under the ranting of Jeremiah Wright, and offered a patronizing speech to cover for what should have disqualified him from the presidency in the minds of voters.
During the campaign, we had key Obama surrogate John Lewis unleash a vicious dose of race hatred:
“I am deeply disturbed by the negative tone of the McCain-Palin campaign,” said Lewis, an Obama supporter, civil rights icon and Georgia Democrat in the U.S. House of Representatives.
“What I am seeing today reminds me too much of another destructive period in American history. Sen. McCain and Gov. Palin are sowing the seeds of hatred and division, and there is no need for this hostility in our political discourse,” he said.
We had the media literally inventing incidences of Republican racism, and Obama jumping on the lies to deal another race card. Just as he dealt the race card when he gave his famous “And did I mention he’s black?” line. Obama said Republicans would use race when HE was the one using race.
In February, Rep. James Clyburn decreed that any opposition to Obama’s ultra-leftist and frankly socialist agenda was actually racism:
COLUMBIA, S.C. – The highest-ranking black congressman said Thursday that opposition to the federal stimulus package by southern GOP governors is “a slap in the face of African-Americans.”
And of course, that’s the new line from the “post-partisan” Democrat Party. The Democrats who used to butcher Thomas Jefferson by citing him as the source of “Dissent is the highest form of patriotism,” are now accusing that “Dissent is the lowest form of racism.”
When corrupt scumbag Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich selected a scandal-tainted Roland Burris to fill Obama’s Senate seat, former Black Panther Rep. Bobby Rush issued a racial declaration when he said:
“I — my prayers have been answered because I prayed fervently that the governor would continue the legacy established by President-elect Obama and that the governor would appoint an African-American to complete the term of President Obama.”
And in a blatant display of racism, Rush warned white Democrats who didn’t want to see Blagojevich pick ANYONE to fill Obama’s seat:
“I will ask you not to hang and lynch the appointee as you try to castigate the appointer.”
And then Roland Burris proves that he is such a naked ideologue that he “voted for ACORN” – a “community organization” that is so blatantly evil that it has been caught on tape repeatedly (at least five times now, with promises of more to come) trying to help a pimp and prostitute cheat on their taxes and buy a house so they can import over a dozen 13-15-year-old illegal immigrant girls and use them to set up a brothel.
I could go on. The blatant racism from Democrats has been amazing.
Obama attacking a white police officer as “acting stupidly” for doing his job and then holding his patronizing “beer summit.”
And now we’re at the sorry and pathetic state where the words “You lie!” are classified as “racism” from the PARTY OF RACISM:
Making an obvious reference to the Ku Klux Klan, Rep. Hank Johnson, D-Ga., said Tuesday that people will be putting on “white hoods and white uniforms again and riding through the countryside” if emerging racist attitudes, which he says were subtly supported by Wilson, are not rebuked. He said Wilson must be disciplined as an example.
But lest we forget, it was the Democrat Party that literally went to war with a Republican President to keep the institution of slavery. And it is a rather ironic historical fact that the Ku Klux Klan was created by Democrats to thwart the rise of the Party of Lincoln in the South. And that it was the Democratic National Convention of 1924 that was so dominated by the Klan that it went down in infamy as “the Klanbake.”
Just a little trip down memory lane, for those who want to understand why we are more racially polarized under the presidency of Barack Obama than ever.
And of course, Barack Obama all the while gets to position himself as being loftily above such petty things while his demonic surrogates unleash their racist hell.
Maybe a little less racist demagoguery, and a lot more shutting the hell up would help.
I am now completely immunized against any charges of racism by a party that has used race as a club to advance their ideology in the most grotesque mockery of genuine racism. If anyone wants to accuse me of being a racist, my simple retort is, “What a racist thing of you to say, you racist bigot.”
