Nora Ephron’s ‘White Men’ Rant Colored by Hate.
Pajamas Media.com ^ | 4/27/08 | Bernard Chapin

Posted on 04/27/2008 11:11:35 AM PDT by rollingthunder2006

Unburdened by justification and relying wholly on confessional declaration, she observed, “It’s suddenly horribly absolutely crystal-clear that this is an election about gender and race” because “this is an election about whether the people of Pennsylvania hate blacks more than they hate women. And when I say people, I don’t mean people, I mean white men.”

Let us stop at this juncture because already there is much to refute. First, note the line “I don’t mean people.” No, certainly she does not. She seeks to impugn males alone. Are men fully human? Well, that depends on what feminist you talk to. To some, males have the same relationship with humanity that viruses do with living organisms: they aren’t really sure where we fit in or if we do at all.

She’s right except that she misses the obvious. Black Democrats are voting for the black Candidate. White democrats are voting for the white candidate. Female democrats are voting for the female candidate. I don’t know why this should be surprising. It’s a democrat thing. She can’t expand this to republicans or independents however.

She's partly correct...except it's not "white men" but liberals who make decisions based upon race. A perfect example is that Obama is getting 90% plus of black vote...is it because he's such a great candidate, or because he is black? Liberal racism in practice. Hilary is getting a larger share of women and particularly white women...is it because she's a better candidate? Another perfect example of liberal sexism and racism.

Liberals have discarded Dr. Martin Luther King...they have no interest in judging one by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin (or their gender). Liberals are the racists and sexists and they project their racism on others and accuse them of it...which, of course, is hypocrisy as well.

Precisely what I wrote, although much more succinct.

Oh Nora! This election is about those who willingly murder infants for convenience and those who believe life is sacred.

I can see you get a kick out of killing infants, the helpless and disabled.

(Smearing a whole bunch of people is simple if you just think like Nora Ephron whose intellectual acuity resembles an artichoke’s.)

“Liberals have discarded Dr. Martin Luther King...they have no interest in judging one by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin”

Had an interview for a below-the-poverty-level job at Wells Fargo. The 20-something eunuch who interviewed me asked, “What does diversity mean to you/”

Controlling myself with great (but invisible) effort, I hit him with that line by King, with attribution.

He got a look on his face like he found a turd in his Cheerios. I didn’t get the job.

Did anybody think that as soon as Barry’s numbers started to slip that the Race card wouldn’t be played?

OK, so anyone opposed to the Black Socialist is opposed to him because he’s black, not because he’s a Socialist.

Got it.

Its more than that.

Black Democrats are voting for the black Candidate and Female Democrats are voting for the female candidate.

However, white male Democrats were pretty much equally split between Obama and Hillery, which, in some sort of bizarre logic, make them both racist and sexist.
