Too Few Oppressors, Too Many Victims (VDH)
pjmedia.com ^ | 11/20/2012 | Victor Davis Hanson

Beneath all the pseudo-healing rhetoric, this is the divisive tool by which Barack Obama ran twice — the hyphenated African-, Latino-, gay-American re-election committees for Obama, the son who might have looked like Trayvon Martin, the people of color who had “the president’s back,” the nation of cowards, the country where we punish our ethnic enemies and fight against the police who all stereotype, in which Joseph Lowery tells us what particular race belongs in hell and Rev. Wright identifies whose chickens must come home to roost and the Rev. Jesse Jackson names the real segregationists who long for the Confederacy. Only in the hyper-racialist America can we take quite distinct Japanese, Filipino, Korean, and Chinese third-generation citizens and create from them the artificial rubric “Asian” in their shared antithesis to “white,” or take disparate Cubans and Mexicans and likewise reinvent them as identical Latinos, or take Jamaicans, Ethiopians, and American blacks and call them all “African-Americans” on the similar logic of not being something equally artificial like white — which I guess covers Americans who used to be Greeks, Irish, Armenians, Jews, Poles, and Danes.

Not Telling the Whole Truth and Nothing but …

Some House Democrats are alleging that reservations voiced about a potential nomination of Susan Rice as secretary of State are both racist and sexist — and do not concern the fact that on five consecutive occasions she misled the nation about the nature of the Benghazi murders of four Americans (peddling an improbable story, which both the CIA and the president of the United States were, at least now and then, on record denying).

IMHO this fact will likely get some people shot.Its very bad news.

she might be a liar but her skin color and her identifying with the downtrodden renders her being a liar irrelevant. On the other hand someone who is honest, humble towards God, loves all God’s people need not apply.

Yes but there is a silver lining in these times of silver linings. Now that the white patriarchal power structure has been replaced by the United Tribes of America, the coalition of the oppressed, they can now be racist.

I think the argument has always been that minorities cannot be racist since they did not control the power structure. Yay! now they do. Is it ok to call them racist now? Heck they don’t even need code words for their bigotry. I wonder when they will begin as all such ideologies do, to turn on each other for the “fair share” of the spoils. It always comes to that eventually because it is not about building or maintaining a system, it is about a bust out.

Hanson is brilliant but he is peeing up a rope.

They want to divide us to conquer us. They use race and class warfare because it works. It plays perfectly to their dumbed down base of slackers, parasites, and brainwashed college grads. They wouldn’t do it if it didn’t work.

The commies are effective street fighters who have been winning since long before my birth in 1958. The GOP are gentlement fighters who won’t take off the gloves, while they are getting their eyes gouged and their testicles kicked.

This all plays to the NWO globalists who needs to weaken America to get it out of the way of the coming one-world-government. Obama, Clinton, Daddy Bush, Baby Bush. They are all NWO one-worlder. It doesn’t really matter anymore who they put in as figurehead.

Great read from Hanson but as usual, it is just academic. The freedom and prosperity of the middle class is going, going, gone. The die is cast. The fix is in.

You make a good point.

But now the bad guys are in charge...and the good guys get to play the role of rebel. We are now the underdogs...and now we get the passion and energy and adrenalin with fighting the valiant fight.

We are now the Resistance...the REAL freedom fighters.
