Case in point. Dick Harpootlian. Let's not forget his comparison of Governor Haley to Eva Braun: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/09/05/dick-harpootlian-nikki-haley_n_1858006.html Here he is recently: Now I know politicians sometimes let their mouths run faster than their brains, but this idiot must be bucking for the Joe Biden Lifetime Achievement Award. If this were a Republican, the media would go ape-(*)(*)(*)(*) over it. Don't believe me? Even Mika Brzezinski and her panel are of like mind: http://www.theblaze.com/stories/201...ld-be-huge-story-if-a-republican-had-said-it/
What a goofball, clueless thread! Leave it to the Right to not even understand what "racist" means or what a "racist" IS!
We know what a racist is. It's obvious, you do not. Oh that's right. Sideways remarks like these are only racist if a conservative says it that way. Remember. We're racists any time we disagree with President Obama.
It was a Southern Democrat, he deserves mercy as they are recovering conservatives. Democrats can't really be racists, because they support welfare for minorities so this was most likely a mistake rather than a slur.
Nikki Haley could put all this to rest if she just produced her birth certificate. . . . The long form.
Obamas religion of 20+ years is racist. Black theology refuses to accept a God who is not identified totally with the goals of the black community. If God is not for us and against white people, then he is a murderer, and we had better kill him. The task of black theology is to kill Gods who do not belong to the black community Black theology will accept only the love of God which participates in the destruction of the white enemy. What we need is the divine love as expressed in Black Power, which is the power of black people to destroy their oppressors here and now by any means at their disposal. Unless God is participating in this holy activity, we must reject his love.
The first one isn't racism. Its insulting for sure, but has nothing to do with race. The second one definitely has 1 leg over the fence. Anyway, Racism doesn't split along party lines.
Democrats are far far far more racist than Republicans... and I can prove it. Here are the rules.... 1 person takes up the Democratic Party side... I will take up the Republican side (I am Libertarian). Each person can provide a quotes from nationally elected Democrats and Republicans. For each quote a person puts up against the other party 1 point will be scored. Whoever has the most points wins. Any Liberal/Progress/Democrat takers????? I will create the thread... we will use a known leftist as the judge if he will accept.... Goldwater. Prepare to be embarrassed Democrats... if you dare take the challenge.
Nope and I'm glad the panel and Mika agrees that had it been a Republican, they'd have led with it. It's rare to see such honesty.
of course there are Democrats that are racist. This is an example of a racist statement, he should apologize. Here's the thing, anyone who links to The Blaze must also admit that Glenn Beck is a racist and a horrible humanbeing. Actually if it were a Republican it would have gotten a similar reaction and how do I know? http://gawker.com/5518012/*********-seems-to-want-someone-to-go-back-to-kenya http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politic...n-apologizes-for-back-to-kenya-obama-comment/ so many have the memory of a mayfly.
LOL! Not sure where you got the idea that it is impossible to support welfare for minorities if you are a racist. All "racist" means is that you make distinctions between people based on race. Hate is not a pre-requisite. If anything, I have found Democrats to be more racist. They seem to need to separate people into groups to justify entitlements.
Welfare is a compassionate allowance by the moral taxpayers to oppressed peoples, if they support policies of compassion then that automatically exempts them from being racists. Secondly, distinctions between people based on race is okay as long as it is not having hateful intentions. That is how to tell what is racist, and what is not, using the context.
"She was down in the bunker a la Eva Braun,"... NASCAR was started by some moonshiners, I doubt that's Panzer fuel they're brewing in that basement.
He's not referring to her hometown. If he were, even the skeptics at MSNBC would have brought that up in his defense.
And you consider them oppressed based only on their skin color? LOL! Then you do not understand what the word "racist" actually means. If you assign traits to people based on race, you are a racist. Whether or not you are compassionate, whether or not you hate other races, whether or not you want to give them welfare. It amazes me how little many liberals actually know about racism. If you stereotype people based on their skin color, you are a racist. Regardless of whether or not you like or support them. How can you do that when race does not actually exist? How are you objectively defining race? Mainstream scientists already gave up trying. Race is a social construct. It has no scientific basis. It is completely subjective and arbitrary.
