A timely look back at the Jan 20, 2010 article by Greg Lewis (a black conservative) The Obama Administration's Rampant Racism ......................"The racist bias of the current administration cuts both ways. The fact that our president accepted Reid's apology as if he (Obama) were the only one damaged by Reid's remarks speaks to two things: the president's own narcissism and the fact that he agrees with the underlying racist premise that speaking with a "Negro dialect" is negative. Obama was sending a subliminal message to tens of millions of African-Americans that they weren't damaged by the implication that they're inferior and not politically marketable as national leaders because they speak differently from white massas like Harry Reid. Reid's comments were insulting to every "Negro" in America, and Reid should have apologized to all of the country's African-Americans, not just to the president.

Obama's spineless and insensitive acceptance of Reid's apology was tendered without so much as a beer summit of the kind he convened to repair the damage (to himself) caused by his racially tinged remarks ("the police acted stupidly") about Cambridge, MA police sergeant James Crowley in the Henry Louis Gates incident. Obama never did apologize to Crowley, though he invited him to beer.

The president was one of the leaders of the lynch mob that eventually succeeded in getting talk show host Don Imus fired from his post for the sin of calling the Rutgers University women's basketball team "nappy-headed ho's." Then-candidate Obama declared that "[Imus] didn't just cross the line, he fed into some of the worst stereotypes that my two young daughters are having to deal with today in America." Thank God Harry Reid wasn't guilty of that.

By appointing a racist as his Attorney General, Obama effectively cemented history's judgment of his administration's racialist policies. Eric Holder, who called Americans "cowards" because they were unwilling to engage in a public debate about "race," has proven himself to be both a coward and a racist. When it's politically convenient for him to support blacks, he'll subvert the law to do so, as he did in dismissing the prosecution of members of the New Black Panther Party for voter intimidation on election day 2008 in Philadelphia. The Justice Department had won the case by default when the defendants failed to respond to the charges, yet Holder dismissed the charges against all but one of the miscreants. The one against whom the charges remained was told not that voter intimidation was illegal, but that he had to wait until after 2012 before brandishing a nightstick at an election site again.

Holder is the Obama administration's "Bull" Connor. Where Connor called out firemen and policemen to prevent blacks from demonstrating in Birmingham, Alabama in 1963, Holder tacitly condoned behavior equivalent to that of Connor's brownshirts by dropping prosecution of members of the New Black Panther Party when they brandished weapons and shouted insults at white voters, intimidating them in a way similar to that of Connor's thugs 45 years earlier. The difference is not in the degree of the offenses committed, but in the fact that in this case, when committed against whites, the offense doesn't lead to punishment."......................

How do get that? Newt has done absolutely nothing since Georgia except drain enough conservative votes to help Romney just barely beat out Santorum in several states.

Free Republic has been had ever since a general ban on Mitt Romney promotions was enacted.
Mittbot FReepers pretended to be for any candidate except Mitt in order to smear those who most threatened Mitt.
First they said they were for Palin and then Perry and Cain all the while (except for a few token attempts to protect their disguises) bashing the other candidates EXCEPT Mitt.
Then when JR came out for Gingrich--meaning over zealous Newt critics risked the dreaded Zot-- they found their perfect cover—they let Mitt destroy Newt with his millions while they went after Rick—all the while claiming to be Newt people.
And now that no amount of Santorum bashing can help the hapless Newt the only real purpose the attacks are having is in helping Mitt...

...the freaking plan all along...Mitt Romney is one evil genius, I'll give him THAT much--oh, and a convention where Mitt does NOT come out the winner? You will see the Second Coming first.
