MSNBC television host Rachel Maddow yesterday charged that Republicans and conservatives know only one way of trying to expand their political influence – by fomenting and exploiting racial fears and prejudices among their overwhelmingly white base of supporters. (Snip) Said Maddow:
“This is chapter one of the art of Republican politics since Richard Nixon. When surrounded by a more popular opponent [i.e., Barack Obama] whose ideas you can’t necessarily counter or you don’t feel confident countering, steer as far clear as you can of ideas and policy, and instead stoke racial indignation among your base when you can.”

Whites didn’t start this, Gates and Obama started it, but unlike in previous years, whites ain’t backing down and allowing themselves to be slandered.
Uh...lemme guess: “Black churches all across the south are getting torched!”....RIIIIGHT?
This is an instant replay of the Clinton years.
Remember Alinksy: ALWAYS ACCUSE THE OTHER SIDE OF WHAT **YOU** ARE ABOUT TO DO.
I hate those effin white pepole.
Speak to the wall idiot you will have a bigger audience!
“...instead stoke racial indignation among your base when you can.”
Pot...kettle...black...Maddow.
Oh! and I meant to also say bringing up race is a deflection to the poor job Obama is doing and the poll numbers reflecting the poor job.
Sure.
Right.
Wishful thinking.
IF we have to live with this racial “identity” garbage, I WISH Whites would start standing up for themselves...
Personally, I’d rather be American (no hyphens).
Whites elected BS you twit (Rachel Madcow).
These are the same people who threatened race riots if 0bama lost.
Everything always comes back to being the Conservatives/Republicans/Christians (whichever fits the moment) as the scapegoat for liberal bigotry.
“When surrounded by a more popular opponent [i.e., Barack Obama]....”
More like INFAMOUS than popular.

LOL!!!!!!!!!!! That’s rich coming from the party of the constant race card!!! Sheeze these people have no shame!
I think this will be reflected in Rasmussen by Monday..
People are angry about what he said. He just as easily could have said nothing, but this guy when not scripted comes out clear.
He’s a racist... and for wealth distribution.
This is ALL about him... If he wins... he’ll try to control us somemore..
You cannot remove freedom rights from people who have had them... for generations....
He’s not American in spirit otherwise he would not be saying or acting the way does when not scripted...
PLUS.. HE’S NOT BACKING DOWN FROM HIS STATEMENT...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No surprise — it is all these useless anti-American networks can do — support the Marxists.
Maddow doesn’t know what he’s talking about. Who, here, was the first to “stoke racial indignation?”
Pot seeks kettle. Bigotry has no color, creed or caste.
You reap what you sew, CNBC.
Hope you can find jobs after your final collapse.
Heh!
