It’s totally about racism. The democrats hate Cruz because he is hispanic.

Well since the right cringes and curls up into the fetal position at the mere hint of the accusation, it will continue to be effective for them. My reply now is “Ok, you’ve established that, now answer my point in the argument we’re having on the issue at hand”.

This charge pops up every time Obama’s ratings drop with minorities. It’s a cheap trick, but it seems to work every time.

Well, there was that one guy carrying a Confederate battle flag. What more evidence do we need? Or, to clarify, does the media need?

We still don't know if it was a young man opposed to federal tyranny or a leftist plant who took the flag there knowing the media would jump on it. I don't know if anyone asked him. I'm inclined to think leftist plant.

It’s a law of nature. Any criticism of anything that relates to Obama, directly or indirectly, is due to racism, regardless of any other factors that may or may not be in play.

It’s as tiresome as it is pathetic.

I’m tired of caring what they think. They called Cruz a “terrorist”. What human has Cruz ever harmed, much less murdered in a terrorist attack? Which is more than can be said for the Thug In Chief who went back to bed instead of acting to save brave Americans in Benghazi. When they call you terrorist, extremist, put you on “hate” lists ( like the SPLC putting pro-family, anti-sodomite agenda groups on their hate list, which led to the attack of one group by a nut with a weapon), when do their epithets stop mattering?

The only bone these people can chew; and we will hear them; nawing on this; until next election - and next election. . .

Would say Repubs could come with some great ‘counter attacks’ - but why go there? They could level this ignorance - showing the ‘racism’ of 0-Care. Sure it is there. As in all of Zero’s policies - whereby Blacks have been most negatively impacted by Obama. . .but they won’t.

Of course; don’t think even now- given all the heat on Cruz - that any Rrpub has even thought of the ‘racist’ card; when Dems attack Cruz. Nor, for that matter; when they likewise; have gone after him.

Meantime; my kudos are for Cruz- not Boehner - Et Al; and those too long; self-annointed, Repubs

Thanks for the posting. One of the talk shows really going with this is Dennis Praeger. I’ve had doezens of posts on this subject here in FR’s hoping talk show hosts and politicians who read these postings might pick up on this.

The media should be given a sound trashing by conservative candidates and talk shows just citing the stuff they were using to incite racial strife which has resulted in black youths (mainly) attacks on whites and hispanics resulting in deaths.

But it’s not even being approached. Not only (pardon the pun) collectively, but individually. Doing so would clearly point out that the visual and print media will are deep in the socialist agenda sewer with the regime. They are creating an America its citizens does not know.

Because each one of the media alphabet soup kitchens individually cooked up socialist concoctions following the cue given them by The POTUS Obama. Falling all over each other defending Obama’s mere comments “If I had a son” and “That could have been me” utterances which served as cues to the direction the propapganda was to take.

The fact that The POTUS embelished one statement after another. And as POTUS had to have full knowledge of the circumstaces of the Florida episode which in essence was a black on black episode.

Yet POTUS Obama decided to manipulate the facts into a full blown racial incident to furthur a socialist concept and inflame a political base makes the Je Accuse Dreyfus scandal look like French pastry.

Letting POTUS Obama and his media get away with this travesty particularly by the clueless political opposition boggles the mind. But the facts are that’s what the conservative movement called the “tea party” is dealing with.

Its all about Racism—Obama won this round. He’s invincible, Brilliant and a God. Watch as they ban the Tea Party as a Hate Group—Muzzel Sarah Palin and pull Fox off the air. Its a sad day for America. We will ten more years—or more— of Progressive Rule. Obama 3rd and 4th Terms (that or his clones to rule —Eric Holder, Maybe Van Jones —at least he’s an honest Communist-—Maybe Michelle Obama as the first woman president—Then their is Hillary Clinton —put her in to keep the cover -ups going to the middle of the 21st Century and to Pardon Obama). This was a sad day for America! I feel like its all over—Its like the start of the occupation but one that will not last 6 years. The GOP are now Progressive Lite—RINOSAURES who will exist only to fill up the ballots and lose to the Democrats and their thugs. Now I know what the French felt when the Nazis marched in—They were failed by their leaders. Its going to be a dark time coming—starvation, inflation and camps after 2016. I hope I am wrong but the signs look dire.

Racism in the political context is meaningless.

I’m a full blown racist.. I hate liberals and RINO’s. I’m definitely superior just by default when they open their mouths.

Those who are claiming racism when it is not there are actually dong a great injustice to those who really are victims of real racism. These accusers are diluting the meaning of the word.
