NPR Admits Opposition To Obama May Not Be Due To Racism But Because He’s Terrible

We’ve been told over and over that opposing President Obama’s socialist anti-American agenda is due to deep-seated racism and not any conservative values one might hold. Now, the National Public Radio (NPR), of all media outlets, has posted a piece on their blog saying that there might be something more to disliking Obama than just racism. I know, I’m shocked too.

“Maybe “white privilege” is at work here. It’s insidious, you know. Even liberals have to fight it in themselves.”

I think you’re onto something. Only whites, with the benefits of their privileged upbringing, have the luxury of thinking such unclean thoughts.

Don’t give the vermin so much credit. They have been dutifully doing what they are told by their masters ... just like good little whores.

Come to think about it, I should have said,” They’ve been drunk and tripping on LSD while at the wheel”

Sound better?

I always ask that, if all opposition to obamas policies and actions are based in racism, is all opposition to Israel’s policies and actions based in antisemetism?

It’s nothing new, how long did it take Khrushchev to throw Stalin under the bus?
