“Dana” is a gender-confused, hater and moron, masquerading as a “Journ-O-List”

Liberals have called conservatives racist and bigot so often the charge has lost its incendiary impact.

While lambasting Trump, Dana Milbank won’t bring himself to denounce the racist terrorist BLM.

That speaks volumes about his character and the fact his opposition to bigotry is motivated by whom he sees an enemy of his liberal ideology.

Which a lot of people in the country disagree with but Dana Milbank sees himself as morally superior to them.

He’ll never understand where Trump came from or why he is so popular. It ain’t the racism, stupid.

DT is an equal opportunity trasher. Trashes more republicans than dems. DT and BHO have that in common, trash the media and the gop.

*click*click* Out of bullets! Fall back to the bigot and racist safe place!

What’s his big deal. They describe most Republicans and certainly all conservatives the same way. He needs better ammo than that.

Their Only Weapon

A correspondent on Lawrence Auster’s site,

http://www.amnation.com/vfr/

commenting on republican Arkansas Governor Huckabee’s feeling that racism is fueling the anti-immigration sentiment, wrote:

“All he has to do is stand up there, give one inane comment after another and use the word that puts trembling in the hearts of the American people and shut them down. Racist.”

A cartoon I saw recently showed a Mexican-flag-waving illegal snarling at a white man, saying something like “Let me into your prosperous country, you damned racist xenophobe.” It captured perfectly the dynamic involved in the immigration debate: people who have no leverage other than guilt are using it to control us.

What are they going to do the day that white people stop running from that word, “racist”?

I have begun, among my white friends, to acknowledge that I am a racist. I say, “If by racist, you mean that I think there are actual differences, genetic differences, between racial groups that have real consequences, then yes I am a racist. If you mean that I feel more of an affinity for people of my ethnic group, that I feel more comfortable and at home with them, then yes I am a racist. If you mean I put the interests of my people, my ethnic group, ahead of the interests of others just as I put my family’s interests over others, then yes I am a racist. But if by “racist” you mean someone who believes in genocide or slavery or hatred or oppression of other ethnic groups, then no, I am not a racist.”

I sense that many white people have had enough of being bullied with the “racist” label. But there are two ways of handling that accusation. One is to claim that you’re not actually a racist. This is the approach most whites take right now, but it hands all of the power over to the non-white person, who can then act as judge and jury on the evidence to decide whether the white person is a racist or not. The other approach is to say, “yeah, I’m a racist; so what?” There is no answer to that. If you prefer your own people and put their interests ahead of others’ without engaging in hatred or violence, what’s it to them?

Perhaps the non-whites and liberals are flinging the “racist” accusation with such vehemence because they sense that the white majority is losing patience. Their one tool, their one way of controlling white people, is losing its efficacy, so they ramp up the volume and the bitterness to try to keep the upper hand. Their worst nightmare is that white people stop flinching at the word because that will be the day that anti-whites (both non-whites and whites who scorn whiteness) lose their only weapon.

But while we need to assert that we, like every other healthy people on earth, are indeed “racists”, what we want to avoid this time is letting the pendulum swing back the other way into hatred. We don’t want another Hitler. We don’t want burning crosses. We don’t want oppression and injustice. We just want to assert our right to survive as a distinct people and to separate ourselves physically and politically from those who threaten our safety, prosperity, and unique identity.

I have a hard time defining that fine line between being a bigot and simply reporting the facts. If I say there is a disproportionately high number of blacks in prison, is that bigotry or simply stating a fact? Liberals seem to feel that if you state something like that, you're a bigot. However, if it's a fact, why is it bigotry to say so? Are we so PC-correct in this country that we now have to ignore the facts?

If I say that 72% of black homes are led by a single parent. In the 1960's it was only about 20%. Those are facts. If I use those facts to form the opinion that blacks have a problem because of those facts, that the deterioration of the black family causes more blacks to resort to crime, am I crossing that line? Liberals would say so, just as this writer did.

Some idiot said that playing the song White Christmas was offensive because they were black. Really? That's a stretch, so I say to them: "You won't let me say Merry Christmas anymore, now you're telling me I can't listen to a Christmas song? Get over it."

Anyone who doesn't swallow the Lefts mantra, hook line and sinker, risks being labeled a Bigot and Racist.
Nothing new here.

Are some of you still not getting it? NO MATTER who the nominee for the GOP was going to be, the Media were going to call them bigots so why not support the guy who REFUSES to play their stupid little games?

Phyllis Schlafly Makes the Case for President Trump: ‘Only Hope to Defeat the Kingmakers’

Phyllis Schlafly Makes the Case for President Trump: ‘Only Hope to Defeat the Kingmakers’
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3382132/posts

Let me see, agree with illogical and irrational rabid anit- Trump people, even here on FR, or agree with Phyllis Schlafly. Hmmmm. That is a tough decision.

Like the thread “Trump says NK leader amazing”. No he didn’t, Trump said his ability to execute a takeover at such a young age is amazing. Trump said the guy is a maniac. So why are so called “conservatives” mis-representing what Trump said?? Is it a mistake because they can’t follow logic? Or is it deliberate?? Either one is a fatal flaw.

“A bigot AND a racist”?

Well, then. If he was just a bigot or just a racist, that would be okay (never mind all racists are, by definition, bigots).

But to be both...well, gawsh, this will be what drives the Trump voters away. This time for sure!

In Dana Milbank’s opinion, all non-progressive whites (and many progressive ones) are bigoted and racist. So who cares about one more accusation?
