Howard Dean Continues Democrat Playbook On Racism
Jul 25, 2010 Political
The playbook for the left is to scream racism and to scream it loud and often. The left has no other game. Its policies have failed, it has pushed an agenda on the American people that is different than that on which they campaigned and that a majority in this country opposes. That does not bother them but now that the elections are rapidly approaching they need a tactic, a diversion. And they havoe found it.
We know that the people on the JournoList had a plan to pick a target conservative and call him racist. In true Alinsky fashion, select the target, isolate the target and attack the target. We also know that screaming racism, including NAALCP resolutions about racism, are nothing more than lies designed to stir up minorities.
Mary Frances Berry admitted that the tactic was to call the TEA Party members racist even though there is NO EVIDENCE that they are any more racist than anyone else. And she said the tactic is working.
So it should come as no surprise that Howard Dean is screaming racism. He is calling the Republican party racist and he is saying that FOX News is racist for spreading lies about Shirley Sherrod. Dean is totally ignoring the fact that FOX did not air the video or discuss the story on TV until well after Sherrod was fired and that the website did not post the video until after Sherrod was fired. FOX News claims the video was not up at its website until after Sherrod was fired.
I have seen the website from the day in question and the video was up but my friend Adam explained how that could happen. News websites update frequently and sometimes the same story is updated several times. FOX posted the story about the video but did not, according to them, post the video until after Sherrod was fired. No one can prove it was up before then (and Adam explained how it could be up now and dated then) so we will take FOX at its word.
The thing that is important to note is that Dean never once stopped to consider the facts in the matter. He dismissed the truth about FOX NOT discussing the story until after Sherrod was fired. His comeback was that it was going to be on Glenn Beck. Dean has absolutely no way of knowing if that was going to be on Beck or not. And even if it was (it was not as Beck did not mention it on TV) what difference could it possibly make? If Barack Obama fired Shirley Sherrod because he was worried that the story was going to be on Glenn Beck’s program then there is a real issue at the White House.
The fear of Beck tells me that Beck has been getting most things he discusses correct and it bothers the regime. They have never called to refute anything that Beck has said. They have never corrected anything he has said and they spend much of their time saying FOX is not real news and no one should pay attention to the network or fear mongers like Beck.
If Beck is of no concern then why worry about whether a story was going to be on his show? Because he is right as he was this time. He did not mention it until the next day and he took Sherrod’s side in the issue. He discussed it on his radio program but I have not heard the entire clip so I do not know what was said. In any event, the White House was worried about Beck’s TV program. Sherrod confirmed that and so did Howard Dean.
Here is the real issue. Howard Dean is using the game plan that was spelled out by JournoList and Mary Frances Berry. He is calling the Republicans and FOX News racist because they are trying to get that accusation to stick. They want to keep saying it until people believe it. They are lying about racism for political gain. Before it was the NAALCP and now it is a failed candidate named Howard Dean.
The Democrats can be counted on for three reflexive actions. Number one they will reflexively blame George W. Bush for all the ills in the world. Number two, they will cry racism no matter what and they will continue to scream it. They do this not because it is some rampant problem but because they think hurling false accusations is proper even with something as sensitive as racism. And three, they will all reflexively blame FOX News Channel for the bad things in the world even in the face of irrefutable evidence to the contrary.
And of course, we can always count on Howard Dean to have a stupid moment.
YEEEEEEEEHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAA…

Howard Dean Injects Race Once Again
Aug 16, 2008 Political
Barack Obama and his party would have people believe that the Republican party is full of racists and that the Democrats are as pure as the driven snow and as diverse as the United Nations. The reality is that the Democrats have injected race into the quest for the presidency. The Democratic primaries involved only Democrats and race was an issue the entire way. Hillary could not make a statement without the Obama camp shouting racism and every time we turned around people were either not voting for Obama or being accused of not voting for him because he is black.
When Obama became the presumptive nominee the race card was played and it has been ongoing ever since. At first Obama told us that Republicans would try to scare people because he is black and then we had him discussing the fact that he does not look like the other guys on dollar bills. The word has already been put out that anyone who does not vote for the sainted one is a racist.
It is pretty obvious that playing the race card is going to be the tactic used by the Democrats and Howard Dean is following suit. Some time ago Dean remarked how the Republican party was the party of white people while the Democrats were diverse. He has done that again during an interview when he stated:
“If you look at folks of color, even women, they’re more successful in the Democratic party than they are in the white, uh, excuse me, in the [laughs] Republican party.” Breitbart
I have gone over this before. The majority of blacks in this country are registered as Democrats and 90% of the black voters vote for Democrats. Anyone capable of doing the math can see that there are very few blacks available to run for office as Republicans and those who admit to being Republicans are chastised as Uncle Toms and sell outs. The National Black Republican Association is full of intelligent Conservative Republicans who happen to be black. They are attacked in the media and by the left all the time. Their sole crime is that they are black and Republican. The Democrats don’t like to let the blacks off their plantation (to use their words) and those who choose not to follow the left are attacked for their beliefs.
There are some promising black candidates who are running for office as Republicans and they will certainly do a fine job. Watch and see who attacks them and who injects race into the issue. Here is a hint, it won’t be Republicans. Frances Rice of the NBRA has recounted a nice history to show who will be the attackers. Ms. Rice is brilliant. She is a veteran and we owe her a debt of gratitude for her service to our country.
As for other minorities and women, I think Dean has it wrong. Of course the majority of Mexicans will be looking to the Democrats because the Democrats want to open the borders and allow all the illegals to invade our country. However, there are many who are here legally who do not buy into the open borders philosophy of the left. Women have made great strides in this country and some of them have done well as Republicans. How about our Secretary of State Condi Rice. She happens to be a woman and black. Of course, she was attacked as an Aunt Jemima.
If Dean wants to discuss women perhaps he can discuss how Hillary Clinton was treated by her party. Perhaps he can explain how she was relegated to second class citizen in favor of a new comer who happens to be black. I am no Hillary fan but I can see she and her supporters were treated poorly. She was left out in the cold in favor of Obama, a man who was selected not elected (funny how this is different when it is one of their own).
I believe that minorities would do much better if they embraced the Republican party and espoused conservative values like they did prior to the middle of the last century. They would be welcomed with open arms and given every opportunity to succeed without the chains of government wrapped around their necks. My friends at the NBRA have done quite well and they are not shunned by Republicans because we don’t care about the color of their skin, only the content of their character.
That was the dream of a famous black man, Martin Luther King Jr.
By the way, he was a Republican…
