The campaign tactic of labeling any and all opposition to Barack Obama as "hate" has now come full circle.
The Democrat Party has, from it's very origins, used black people. Before as physical property, and now as their political property. As they believe they own the black vote, they use that vote to their advantage, and have perfected their latest political strategy.
In 2006 Massachusetts elected Deval Patrick her first black governor. His campaign guru was none other than David Axerod. The Chicago pair came into The Bay State with a campaign labeled, "Together We Can". Aside from working in the Clinton justice department, Patrick had no legislative experience, yet was overwhelmingly elected in a campaign where his Republican boots-on-the-ground opposition was extremely weak, and vocal opposition was called racist.
Patrick may wind up being known as Massachusetts' first and last black governor, as his term thus far has been a sheer failure and embarrassment. But the upside is that Axelrod and the Democrats found a winning political strategy of using race to not only tug at the heartstrings of white liberal elites, but codify black solidarity.
So in comes another candidate, guided by the same David Axelrod, who found an up-and-coming young, charismatic black man to use that strategy again. Race temporarily fractured the Democrat Party, as any opposition to Barack Obama was pushed back by his supporters and called "hate". Even though then-Senator Obama was probably the most inexperienced presidential candidate ever, oppose him and you paid.
Now, blacks who oppose Obama are in the cross-hairs because, heaven forbid, should his support in the black community drop, Democrats will be in real trouble. Video of blacks protesting Obama can never be allowed, so the messengers must go down.

This is straight out of Alinsky's handbook for community organizers..
It ain’t hate, it’s criticism.
Some people hate being criticized.
The author is a FReeper. I’d ping him, but I don’t recall his screen name.
“Because of the entrenched nature of Democrat politics in the black community, they (the elected officials) are safe and thus, the same ills blacks have complained about in the community still exist after decades of electing black Democrat city council persons, black Democrat state representatives, black Democrat state senators, black Democrat mayors, black Democrat police chiefs, black Democrat school superintendents and principals, black Democrat congresspersons, black Democrat senators, and now a black Democrat president.”
Anybody own a billboard we can put this on? I nominate this for ‘Quote of the day’.
Ping!
Bob Parks is Black and Right.
Go Bob
None of this is really about the color of anyone’s skin. It’s more about the thinness of it.
I love reading Walter Williams articles. He must be a thorn in Zero's side.
Could be that black or white are not the colors that are hated - maybe it is RED!
his mother was white, his sperm donor father was capoid. he was raised “white”,
he is a fake black who played the race card
A paradox is that Liberals want blacks to vote, but don’t want to have too many blacks. Because they have strongly encouraged abortion in the black community, blacks are no longer the largest minority in the country.
Their patronizing and outright bigotry in the policies that hold blacks down in America is destroying those communities, and teaching blacks that they aren't bright enough, skilled enough, rational enough, that they don't hold decent American values so they shouldn't be expected to live them, that they “can't help themselves”, ALL of it, is just so degrading! There will never be progress for such people, until messages like yours get through. I pray that day is soon.

Thank you.
