Since Race Is The Weapon Of Choice…
by Big Dog on Jul 23, 2010 at 10:28 Political
Since we know that Democrats use the cry of racism as a weapon when they are in trouble and since we know that their plan to derail opposition is to use such false claims (as evidenced by JournoList and Mary Frances Berry), I thought it would be good to remind people of Morgan Freeman’s solution to the race problem.
Notice how Wallace squirms when he is not getting the typical victim claptrap from Freeman:
What a novel idea! How about we stop talking about it and all look past color to see each other as human beings…
But that would be detrimental to the Democrats. They need to use race as a weapon with false allegations designed to put those who oppose them on the defensive. Democrat members of Congress have lied about racist acts in order to paint people who oppose them as racists so those down the line can’t be expected to stop.
It would also put race hustlers like the NAALCP, Jesse Jackson, and Al Sharpton out of business.
So there is no way Freeman’s idea will take root. The Democrats can’t lose such a powerful weapon and the race hustlers can’t lose their cash cow…
But it was nice to see someone make sense of the issue…

Wallace, as a “good liberal,” simply assumes all the racial pieties the Left has jammed down our throats:
— That the slavery period in our history is a crime we have yet to atone for;
— That American Negroes suffer from white racism in pervasive and substantial ways;
— That measures such as preferential treatment in hiring and college admissions, “Black History Month,” “Black Educator of the Year,” and so forth are the appropriate means by which to compensate American Negroes for the “discrimination” they face daily;
— That those measures don’t relieve us of a very substantial penance, to be specified and enforced by the Omnipotent State.
To reject those pieties a priori, as Morgan Freeman did, puts the subject on a plane no liberal is prepared to discuss.
Anyone who thinks of Blacks as “victims” should both read Thomas Sowell, or/and attend a lecture- here is a man who really gets it right.
Well this is very refreshing to see! The amswer is so simple, but Democrats don’t want an answer, they only want an issue.
I will be stealing this video for my blog, proper hat tip coming your way of course.
The BIG problem with both libbies and some Blacks (as well as other minorities) is the victim card that they play- this is why they do not like either the Declaration of Independence OR the Constitution- both of these documents spell out exactly the parameters of America-“Life, Liberty, and the PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS”
For all my liberal friends out there- allow me to translate for you, since you seem to have trouble with that last phrase.
It means that you have the OPPORTUNITY to attempt to succeed, and possibly gain happiness, security, money, whatever licks your chops- but it does NOT GUARANTEE that you will get any of these things- instead, you have to work to succeed, not have it given to you as a governmental handout.
Government works best when it works least, and while some government IS necessary, it simply MUST be reined in, lest it overpower the free will and enterprise of the general populace. That stifles competition, and strips the tax rolls of money.
You could tax the upper 5% all 100% of their income, and you wouldn’t make the annual govt. nut- small business does this, but it can only do so in an atmosphere of competition, and the govt. is over-regulating them- as a result, nothing is being done about true, private sector job creation.
The housing crisis led us here, and it will have to lead us out, but it will not do that as long as there are moronic regulations in place.
The old regulations were good- you had to have proof of employment, and be able to put down 20% of the price, just to show you were serious.
There are rules for a reason.
Private businesses are holding nearly 2 TRILLION dollars in reserve. They will not spend it, will not hire people, will not expand because they do not know how Obamabam’s taxes and laws will harm them. They are holding money that could stimulate the economy nearly overnight if they spent it but will not because of the government. How long can they hold that money and continue to stifle the economy? As long as they do, government will not create jobs (not that it can anyway).
Government doesn’t create jobs, it just creates entitlements, and ALL the entitlements we have are like an anchor around our leg, all while we are trying to swim to safety.
This dog won’t hunt- Social Security MUST be scrapped- I would say that everyone above the age of fifty gets it, but then other, younger people need to find another way to save, because even if we do this, SS will be in the red by 2016, and unsustainable completely by 2022.
The same for Medicare- if the government keeps on cutting benefits anyway, there will be nothing left as it is, Lil’ Donnie Berwick will see to that.
