Race Is No Longer An Issue

You were mistaken with BrianR for your answer on my blog and you were half right. I was looking for both Hitler and the O-man.

BTW, you realize that Obama cannot claim he is African-American at least not in the slave sense. His heritage is that of slave OWNERS. What a coincidence, soon he'll have MANY slaves at his command!

Dude....take a chill pill.

Who made you knuckle under? Why do you feel like you have to tip-toe around issues of color? You sound a bit conflicted. You are bold with your blog posts, yet you say you tip-toe around issues of race? I don't get it.

Did you read Mike Gallaghers blog? Evidently not! He gets called a RACIST for wearing a black armband! A BLACK ARM BAND! It has long been a symbol of a person in mourning....only now, blacks have adopted it as a symbol of racism! Does that mean widows who dress in black to mourn the passing of their spouse are racists too?

Whoever thinks that can GO TO HELL! There is nothing racist about it!

And since you have further failed to read my comments on Professor Ogletrees assertion that even though white americans who voted for Obama are still racists...he can GO TO HELL too!

Who the F*** does he think he is calling anybody a racist? The only racists I see nowadays are blacks themselves!!!

Dont tell me to chill...I have been living with this political correct BS for too long now! Blacks who want to cry RACISM at the drop of a dime can officially KMA!

I have not read his column, but I listen to his radio show. Listen, Brian, just 'cause somebody says something, it does not make it so. There's an old saying, "Its not what you call me, its what I answer to." I agree, a black armband is a symbol of mourning. And now you are all in a huff because someone has said that is now being considered a symbol of racism. Instead of getting mad, you should just chuckle that one off. Its not funny, however, the way you are reacting to the nonsense of the Dems on the left that keep race baiting alive and well. As far as I am concerned, Prof Ogletree and other like him loose more and more of their credibility each time they use tactics, and it is just that, tactics, to gin up emotion from their opponents. I read an another Townhall column that in the handbook for radicals written by Saul Olinsky (spelling?), he states that getting an emotional response from your opponent is a part of the left, radical playbook. Don't play into their hands.

Orpheus...

...im not sure how old you are, but I have been following politics since 1980....and the one thing that just keeps popping up is blacks calling people racists every time a voice is uttered in opposition.

After about a billion times it gets old and forgive me for getting sick and tired of hearing about it.

Maybe that is the problem of the republicans as a whole! Maybe we dont get fired up enough! It sure would have helped John McCain some.

All I am saying is ENOUGH! I am telling my fellow conservatives that it is ok to tell anyone who calls you a racist to SHUT THE HELL UP....black or white!

Maybe being called a racist for 6 months only because I had the audacity to oppose a false messiah makes me bitter, but hell yes I am bitter! Im bitter that people like you dont mind allowing people to distort our truths and we should just "laugh it off".

I say...its time to take off the gloves!

RIGHT ON!

It is this PC bullsh*t that continues to take this country to hell.

Blacks no longer have a cornerstone on the race card issue. They have a black man in the WH. If a black man in America can become the most powerful man in the world (God help us), then every friggin' black in American can succeed. NO EXCUSES!

No more friggin affirmative action! What a joke! No more racists rants!
