Washington Post: Hate Group's Newest Target (Whitey is racist, Wright's Church is Not!)
Washington Post ^ | June 22, 2008 | Eli Saslow

Posted on 06/22/2008 7:05:54 PM PDT by GOPGuide

Sen. Barack Obama's historic victory in the Democratic primaries, celebrated in America and across much of the world as a symbol of racial progress and cultural unity, has also sparked an increase in racist and white supremacist activity, mainly on the Internet, according to leaders of hate groups and the organizations that track them.

Funniest line in the article:

"Obama has worked hard to minimize the issue of race in his presidential campaign. When asked about divisiveness and hate, he talks instead about ways in which unity between blacks and whites has inspired him. He chose to "reject and denounce" an endorsement from Nation of Islam minister Louis Farrakhan. Obama quit his church after his pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., spoke of racism and oppression in the "United States of white America."

Har Har Har, racism for whitey, but not for Obama's mentor Rev. Wright say the "Hate montioring groups".

For someone who said that race would not play a factor in his campaign, he sure does toss that card out a lot.

Well we all know that anyone not planning on voting for Obama is a racist, sexist, homophobic, hatemongering tool of the Corporate military establishment forwarded by Bush to make money for Haliburton...

Correct me if I’m wrong but Obama didn’t repudiate his church, associates, or endorsements from radicals and racists until there was controversy about his association with those people.

As long as no one was looking, he didn’t have a problem with these people or what they said, in fact he embraced their ideas.

Who is the real radical racist and political opportunist?

Obama, but don’t wait for the media to tell you that.

Why oh why if the democrat party wanted to run a black man, which would be just fine despite what “Pastor Wright” teaches, did they choose a racist, Marxist, anti-semite? They must believe they can manipulate this entire election based on lies and contrived guilt. I guess we’ll see.

If this is the feeling and we white folk are still card carrying racists, in the opinion of some blacks, then maybe it is time to dump affermative action..just junk it..

Odd thing...blacks wanted intergration and demonstrated and fought for it and finally got it. They were wronged all those years ago but not by most whites of today..we never had slaves . The sad thing is, that the generations keep perpetuating this racism issue where whites have long since tried to move on and work together not just with the black population but with other races as well. With the Black community, and even in Congress they demand segregation..black cacucs, there once was Miss Black America even though there had been some beautiful black women already Miss America, there are the black student unions and so on..so what did all the bussing get us? What did all the protest marches and support by many white folks earn? All the pain and suffering by whites and blacks alike in the cause of desegregation get us? It seems maybe not a damn thing.

“They’re starting to freak out.”

Yeah they are. And it is wonderful, if bizarre, to watch. :)

Can you imagine four years of the media screaming “RACISM” everytime somebody gives Messiah a dirty look? Unbelievable.

That Russellville, Ark group would be far better off to simply go a way north to Newton and Madison counties and get interviews from Obama’s cousins to determine just how many of them were Faubus(D) supporters and publish their testimonials—Whitewater country too. What Orville Faubus—a former manager of Dogpatch—did for the farkelberry bush was a good thing or not? Etc..

and to further prove your point...

Obama has worked hard to minimize the issue of race in his presidential campaign.

he has??? seems just yesterday he was telling all his messianic followers the Republicans would use fear in large part because hussien is black (or really half black)....

I really believe this is going to happen....That or her running 3rd party.

That will make for quite a convention, and our standing in the world will take another dive.

Good one.

There is no doubt our country would be a great risk if we allow Obama anywhere near the White House!!

David Duke, a former Louisiana state representative and a longtime advocate of racial segregation, said hits to his Web site have doubled and that more organizations now request him as a guest speaker.

I know that's true. The same thing happened when California Proposition 209 (ending affirmative action) was on the ballot.

Opponents of ending affirmative action invited Duke and paid him $4,000 (I believe) to argue for Prop. 209. Lots of MSM employees covered the debate and nary a nickel spent for the anti-Prop 209 ads.

Get it?
