First, it...Individualist, I really like that idea! First, it's historically accurate. Secondly, it really does turn the tables on them by pointing out that they are trying to tar conservatives with the crimes of progressives... the same progressives who now claim to hold the moral high ground. Of course, they always claim to hold the moral high ground, no matter what crimes against humanity they were committing.<br /><br />I also like the idea of conservatives learning to put up a unified fight against these kinds of slanders. I think we're finally getting better at that -- now that we've taken the responsibility away from the establishment. In the past, you know the first thing that would have happened would have been some RINO running out and apologizing for the racism. Then some weak-kneed conservatives would say that they didn't see any racism, but they still condemn "any conservatives who believe in these horrible ideas." (basically conceding the point). Or they would have said, "I condemn the few racists who did this and disgraced the rest of us." Then it would have taken someone like Rush to stand up and finally say "this is crap, there was no racism."<br /><br />These days, the public has taken it upon themselves to call out the left for making false claims of racism.AndrewPricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11312364467936820986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-69283687949191863342010-10-07T21:52:17.489-04:002010-10-07T21:52:17.489-04:00Stan, "Shoes are optional" -- LOL!

We Tea Partiers know darn well that the Birth of the NAtion movie was made for Woodrow Wilson the father of the leftist Progressive movement and we vehemently deny that we have anything to do with Woodrow Wilson's fascist policies or the democratic party. These letters should be sent to every media outlet and we shoud then have Conservative congressman talk about this point on any show that they go on.<br /><br />If the left brings up racism or the clan (klan) we simply state, Racism is evil and the Klan should not exist but more important is the attempt to link the Tea Party to the Progressive ideology that Barack Obama shares which is currently bankrupting our nation. They yell we yell louder completely dismissing race as anything other than another blackeye on the demacratic party that is the father of these ideas.<br /><br />But we make the mantra Woodrow Wilson is a Racist, a Klansmen and the father of Progressivism and demand progressives apologize for it.Individualisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11005025873042230314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-65403980836303454072010-10-07T21:09:11.322-04:002010-10-07T21:09:11.322-04:00Silly me Bev, I’m Southern, I guess I was thinking...Silly me Bev, I’m Southern, I guess I was thinking, my clan?

But somehow the left won't see that because it doesn't fit with the narrative that people need to separate by race, that the races can't get along, and that all blacks think alike.<br /><br />None of these things are true and I think that the vast majority of the public is done with the people who keep promoting these lies.<br /><br />Indeed, millions of average people went to the Tea Party rallies and saw what was going on and then went home to see themselves declared "racists," and in that moment they learned that they can no longer trust another thing the left says.<br /><br />P.S.

This was not in their diabolical calculations that the people that actually pay the freight might get a bit upset and take to the streets…oh well. <br /><br />The funny thing, I was at a Tea Party (clan) Rally, and when we removed our sheets the man who was the master of ceremony, heaven forbid was black, black as the ace of spades. I knew there was something funny about this brilliant man the way he talked, you just don’t know these things until the sheets come off, and we can’t have that, now he’s stupid, liberal narrative. The black man was Herman Cain, former CEO of Godfathers Pizza, many corporate boards, self made, hard core conservative, and I love this guy. He is the antithesis of Barry, not because of his color, but because of his unabashed love of America, and everything that she stands for. He recites from the Founding Documents, verbatim, no teleprompter. What’s a racist to do? <br /><br />Paul Krugman has been a useless leftist twit for decades.

And it's made all the worse when you're told that when you do it, it's not racism, but when everyone else does it, it is.<br /><br />That's how victimology works though, it makes you part of a bigger group, and it justifies anything you do on behalf of that group and it makes anything done to your group into an outrage.<br /><br />It's the same mindset that has kept the human race at war since day 1.AndrewPricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11312364467936820986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-20963824722334353462010-10-07T13:16:00.315-04:002010-10-07T13:16:00.315-04:00Andrew: you're right about the angry little en...Andrew: you're right about the angry little enclaves.

I think...Jed, Great comment -- I agree completely!<br /><br />I think it is troubling that there is a "black vote." Until that changes, there will continue to be race problems in this country. I think it's obvious that the vast majority of whites have moved beyond race, but most blacks haven't. And as long as they see thing in terms of race, they will be subject to this kind of manipulation. And their leaders know it, that's why all those corrupt Congressional Black Caucus types yelled racism when they got caught breaking the law.<br /><br />I have a lot of respect for the Sowells, the Williamses, and the Cosbys. It is not ease to stand up to this kind of group think and they are doing it. And I like to think they are having an effect. If there is evidence of this, it's in the number of blacks who have turned out to Tea Party rallies -- something that gives me hope about the future of race relations.<br /><br />As for their being evidence to support their claims, sure there is -- in a country of 300 million people, you can always find some people to confirm your views, no matter how twisted. Add in the faulty history they preach and you have enough evidence to point to that a willing audience will be swayed.<br /><br />I haven't seen the article on Krugman, but I have no respect for that fool. I would trust my dog on economics before I trust Krugman.<br /><br />I also agree with you about Obama being deeply racist. I think the signs were there in his wife's thesis, and this issue has risen to the surface repeatedly during his term. And I don't think people are responding well to that. That's the point these leftists are missing. . . the public doesn't hate him because of his race, they have come to hate him because of his racism.AndrewPricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11312364467936820986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-64578200206231614592010-10-07T12:21:08.908-04:002010-10-07T12:21:08.908-04:00Crispy, I think that's also very true.

I think they are trying to excite their base and to keep uniformed moderates who may be tempted by our side from ever join us by telling them that we're a bunch of monsters.<br /><br />Also, I think this helps them psychologically handle the contradictions in their beliefs and gives them comfort that they are the good guys even when a lot of their philosophy is based on hate, bigotry, dividing people and theft.AndrewPricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11312364467936820986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-50443738723303747962010-10-07T12:12:12.144-04:002010-10-07T12:12:12.144-04:00The race card is THE default position for liberal ...The race card is THE default position for liberal Democrats in their attempts to control the so called "black" vote. That there is some truth to the fact there is a "black" voting block at all is a sad testimony in itself, but that is a separate issue. Like most big lies, there is just enough truth to usually make it stick. The "solid south" is now Republican, and aren't these the ancestors of the slave holders? Isn't this the party of the cracker? And since the days of LBJ, Democrats always talk the talk when it comes to providing goodies.<br /><br />But the reality is they seldom deliver. And, as more blacks have risen to middle class status or above, they have begun to see this inconsistency. Sowell, Wats, Cosby, etc. help to point this truth out despite being tarred as "Uncle Tom's.<br /><br />We should not be surprised this time honored tactic has been doubled down in the era of the first black president (or second depending on who is counting.) It is just so easy for blacks to believe the "man" is conspiring to make a failure of the "brother." I have come to believe the Obamas probably have some seriously racist bones in their bodies. Post racial president in deed!<br /><br />The Village Voice, on the other hand, really has some lunars don't they. Did anybody own up to actually writing that shit? And our friend Paul Krugman . . . there is a great article on him in the National Review that just came out.<br /><br /> Anyway, nice article. The comments about the irony of Dems talking in "code" is spot on. To uGene Robinson, Danny Glover, and Harry Belafonte, take your "code" and shove it up, your asking me buddy to take the old race card lying down once more and it just ain't gonna happen this time. ;-DTennessee Jedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10604275115906776992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-13889683732550126572010-10-07T11:41:10.002-04:002010-10-07T11:41:10.002-04:00Joel, I see this entire issue as projection.

But they think these aren't racist ideas because they're liberals and they can't be racists.<br /><br />At the same time, they project these belief onto conservatives and add an evil motive, even though they have no evidence to believe it. In fact, half the time the liberals I know talk about these things they are sayings like "you just know that (insert conservative) really hates blacks became he thinks...." and then they describe their own beliefs. Yet, then never grasp what they are doing.<br /><br />I would honestly say that liberalism is the result of a collection of mental disorders that hamper their ability to see the world around them honestly.AndrewPricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11312364467936820986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-49645037551983455602010-10-07T11:32:00.922-04:002010-10-07T11:32:00.922-04:00Patti, In general, I agree with you about most peo...Patti, In general, I agree with you about most people in the country.
