RACIST? YOU'RE ALREADY VOTING FOR MCCAIN <-> At least that is according to Barack Obama's campaign manager. That's right. Here's the quote from David Plouffe:
"[T]he vast, vast majority of voters who would not vote for Barack Obama in November based on race are probably firmly in John McCain's camp already."
In other words, this man who is managing the campaign for the presumed nominee for the Democrat party believes that if people won't vote for Barack because he is black, that automatically means that they are going to vote for McCain. I guess it follows they will vote for McCain not because of his policies but simply because he is white.
Perhaps we're seeing an interesting expansion in the racial aspects of the election. What we're being told here is that there are no Democrat voters out there who would ever base a vote on race .. only Republicans would do that and they're already in McCain's camp.
In other words, only Republicans can be racists. Every time you say anything about Barack Obama, you are considered a racist because he is black ... not because he is the most liberal Senator in Washington or associates himself with terrorists or is two steps away from being an outright communist.
No. The Barack Obama campaign calls the race card on others, and then uses the race card when all else fails.
How convenient.
Jeremiah Wright is voting for McCain?
i have been saying this for months...
RULE #1 - Blacks can claim racism at any time, in any place, for ANY reason.
RULE #2 - Anyone that dares to question RULE #1 is, by definiton, a racist.
It’s idiology not color. Although Im not so happy with Mccrancky If Obama was a true conservative, running as a republican he would have my vote.
Rule #1: I am always right
Rule #2: If I am ever wrong, see rule #1.
Thus, since my dad would have been of the opinion that Rev. Wright is a racist fruitloop, I guess I'll have to go with that.
Shelby Steele is a controversial public intellectual who often finds himself at the center of controversy because of his conservative stances on such issues as Affirmative Action, reparations, welfare and other government entitlement programs. As an African-American, this makes him a much in demand media darling who Republicans wheel out whenever they need a black man to weigh-in on a hot-button issue.
KW: “Why Obama Can’t Win” sounds like an attention-grabber dreamed up by somebody in the marketing department. But let me ask you about your first book, “The Content of Our Character.” I actually agreed with much of what you had to say in that book, but it seemed that soon thereafter you became a media darling among conservatives who were quick to co-opt some of your words as a rationale for dismantling Affirmative Action. Did you sense how you might be being used in this fashion?
SS: I take responsibility for what I write. I came to have really strong views about Affirmative Action. In the next book I wrote, “A Dream Deferred,” I took on the issue a lot more directly. But it’s always there, even in “White Guilt.” So, here you are, where people are inviting you to speak about what you really believe. That’s how that went. Certainly, in the media, there have not been many black voices that have argued against Affirmative Action with any decent logic.

“As part of my efforts to UNITE the country and to TRANSCEND issues of race and division, I would like to first state that half of you are racist cracker fools. You know who you are. Now, the rest of us will move into the future, strong and united.”
I won’t be voting for Obama because he supports baby killing and socialism. It has nothing to do with his gender or race or the cut of his suit or any other superficial thing.
I’ll be voting for crazy old Bob Barr.
So If I do not vote for Obama or Mc Cain then am I still a racist?
Obama’s race is the only thing about him that doesn’t bug the daylights out of me. Everytime he opens his mouth I cringe from his barely concealed contempt of middle America. He is nothing without a soundbite. Don’t get me started on his wife. He racism is palpable and his marxism stunning. I could go on and on and on, but won’t because all of his negatives are so glaringly obvious.
All racists are voting for McCain. Good than McCain should win in a landslide with a sizable proportion of the Black and Democrat vote.
