Boy, Oh, Boy (Dowd: Wilson "Lie" was because of race)-Barfer
NY Slimes ^ | 9/12/2009 | MAUREEN (Desperate) DOWD

Posted on 09/13/2009 1:03:34 PM PDT by Red in Blue PA

The normally nonchalant Barack Obama looked nonplussed, as Nancy Pelosi glowered behind.

Surrounded by middle-aged white guys — a sepia snapshot of the days when such pols ran Washington like their own men’s club — Joe Wilson yelled “You lie!” at a president who didn’t.

But, fair or not, what I heard was an unspoken word in the air: You lie, boy!

At some point the “Boy Who Cried Wolf” has got to kick in with this country.

DING! And the race card is played AGAIN!

Honestly, these liberals are beyond pathetic. They just can’t admit to themselves that they are wrong, so they desperately play the race card.

We don’t CARE about Obama’s race. This has NOTHING to do with his race!

HE IS A L-I-A-R!!!!!!!!!

They have just fored the last bullet in their gun, and it was a dud. The left believes that using the “R” word is a nuclear option, but this underscores their ideological bankruptcy.

Dowd should go see a doctor about those voices she’s hearing. Could be a tumor. At least that would explain a lot of the bizare things she imagines she hears and writes about.

persecuting someone due to political beliefs is a form of discrimination too.

I remember after Congress voted to authorize force against Iraq, our then rector asked rhetorically whether we all thought it was hypocritical to decry 9/11 and to vote overwhelmingly for war. I am not a big mouth, in fact, I hate public speaking, but before I knew it, the word NO! came out of my mouth! So I empathisize with Mr. Wilson, who says, while he regrets it he felt provoked.

If Maureen Dowd wants to go that route..that’s fine. Obama called Sarah Palin a liar, I guess that is because of racism too. Sarah deserves an apology, obviously Obama went after her and called her a liar because she is white

I'm confused.

Only whites can be called "liar"?

So doesn't that mean that Ozero CAN be called liar because he's just as much white as black?

Or does the black cancel out the white?

This is all too much for me to figure out...I'm sure Dowd has the answer.

Everytime I see the rules enforced in a Dowd-diatribe thread, I think to myself that Michael Douglas is either the smartest SOB on Earth, or the luckiest.

Either way, he most definitely UPGRADED!

I think there is tone deafness to the loose use of 'racist/homophonbe/whatever'. Obama offered to rise above race in this country, and indeed some declared the end of the race wars with his election. What we're seeing now, IMO, is just the old knee-jerk reactions from a group that's watching their champion and ideology flounder. IOW, they're like old generals--they fight their wars the only way they know how: the good old-fashioned way.

It seems to me tht the only ones who ever find racism are libs. It never has occured to me to add that racist added word. Now, just who are the racists?

The “any criticism of Obama is racism” crowd have done us all a great favor. The word has lost it’s meaning.

Maybe it means we can only holler, "Your white half lies!" ... or maybe, "You, half liar, you!"

Or maybe better yet, and I admit it is a little wordy...we can say, "Your white lies, proving your white half is so racist against your black half!"

Naah...on second thought I think we should just brand him as a "Lying Racist!" ;^)

Dowd finally admits she is a racist by her thoughts. You would have to be to write this kind of stuff.

Let me get this right. Mo hears the words "you lie", and immediately thinks *this must be about a black guy*.

Yeah, I think there is a tinge of racism here.

This is a great example of something I have long noticed: about 30% of what a lib "knows" or "hears" is made up in their own mind.

Sigh. From nonplussed Obama to fuming Pelosi. Every ‘news’ item seems overburdened with heavy handed adjectives. WE get it. Bad conservatives shout heinous things. They are routinely called ‘extremists’ in the news (not op-ed) just for disagreeing. And sainted dems exhibit superhuman powers of understanding and compassion. And hope and wisdom. Just when you thought the MSM couldn’t lean any further to the left, they’ve turned up the mutual admiration to a new level.

This is the meme that has been perpetuated on the Mainstream media employee chat site, DAILY KOS, all weekend.

Try this post:

“Joe Wilson would lynch black folks...
if he could. And he would be supported by at least 75% of the GOP. There is not even one person of good will among these people and I refuse to be silent.

I’m not advocating violence against anyone. But if some teabaggin’ republican so much as looks at me the wrong way I might end up in prison.”

And that pretty much sums up the opinion of the other side.
