The Obama Plan For Victory

Race Card

The Obama team plans to use the words “attack ads” and “racism” to win the election. Every time the Republicans put out an ad, the Obama team calls it an attack ad. They claim the ads are misleading and untruthful. I notice they never say the same about the ads put out by them and their surrogates.

In addition to claiming all ads to be attacks (they are or why would you put them out) the Obama team will also play the race card. John McCain’s camp has already stated “Barack Obama has played the race card, and he played it from the bottom of the deck.” This is absolutely true even though the Obama folks try to spin things differently. Here is what Obama said:

Nobody thinks that Bush and McCain have a real answer to the challenges we face,” Obama said Wednesday. “So what they’re going to try to do is make you scared of me. You know, ‘He’s not patriotic enough, he’s got a funny name.’ You know, ‘He doesn’t look like all those other presidents on the dollar bills. Herald Tribune

First of all, “nobody” is an absolute. Obama wants people to believe that there are no people at all who believe that McCain (forget Bush, he is not running in the race) has the answers. If this were true then Obama would lead in the polls instead of being in a dead heat. But the second part of the statement addresses this. You see, Americans don’t believe in what McCain says but are racists and are being scared because Barry does not look like the other presidents on dollar bills. We are all racists or we would look past his color and vote for him because he has all the answers. This is how the entire season will play out. Now, anyone who read or heard that statement knows what Obama was saying but his people had to nuance it.

But Robert Gibbs, an Obama spokesman, said Thursday that Obama was not referring to race.

“He was describing that he was new to the political scene,” The Associated Press reported him as saying. “He was referring to the fact that he didn’t come into the race with the history of others. It is not about race.”

The Obama statement was absolutely about race. Obama said LOOK LIKE. He did not say, not as experienced as all those folks on dollar bills. He specifically said LOOK. The only thing that looks obviously different is his skin color and that is what Barry was referring to.

They can spin this any way they want but the fact is Obama has made a similar claim in the past. At that time he specifically said they will scare you by telling you he has a funny name and he is black. The sainted one is definitely playing the race card as he did in the primary against Hillary and now he is being even more aggressive in the general.

Let me clear it up for the Messiah. There are some people who will not vote for you because you are black just as there are some people who will not vote for McCain because he is old. However, the majority of people who do not vote for you will be voting against what you believe in. We will be voting against your Socialist policies and your desire for vastly increasing the size of federal government while increasing our taxes along the way. We are not on board with Hope and Change as game plans for improving this country and we don’t want another obstructionist who will forbid drilling for our own oil.

No Barry, we don’t care what color you are because that is not important to the conversation. We care about what you believe in. We care about what you will do to our country and we care about how your policies will impact our military, our economy, and our safety. You are not experienced enough to lead this country and you are too far left (though you are feigning to the middle) for us.

However, I will ask this. Huge numbers of black people are voting for you and not McCain and many have stated they are voting for you because you are black. Does that make them the racists? How come you have not gone after them for their obvious racism? What about whites who are only voting for you because you are black, what are they?

No Barry, I am not voting for you because I do not believe what you believe and I do not like your political views. I am not voting against you because of your color so quit calling me a racist.

However, if it will make you feel better, I am voting against the half of you that is white.

Vote Obama or You’re a Racist

The idea that Obama’s ascent to the nomination is related to redemption is not new nor is the idea that if one does not vote for him then that person is a racist. Jesse Jackson called this campaign a redemptive one (as if affirmative action in the presidency redeems anything) and the claim that those who do not vote for Obama are racists has been floating around since about the West Virginia primaries. Now it will begin full force and those who want Obama to win will stop at nothing, including stirring “white guilt”, in order to get him elected. The Gateway Pundit and the Prairie Pundit both report on New York Governor David Patterson’s speech to the NAACP where he makes that very claim:

“Can America reject the crucible of race that has dictated and pervaded all of our history to embrace an African American man who has the right polices for the next decade in this country? Can America overlook its past practices that were so grave that in1820 the great Scottish Whig, Sydney Smith, writing in the Edinburgh Review, said of America: ‘How can they protest the tyrannies of Europe when they torture and brutalize one-sixth of its population?’ How can America get past this and elect an African-American president of the United States?” Mr. Paterson said.

He continued: “Can America go past the crippling way that we’ve shot ourselves in the foot over and over, denying opportunity to people who are bright, to people who are qualified, to people who are able because they didn’t look like us, or they didn’t come from where we came from, or they are from a different gender, or they are from the African continent? Can America push that away and find new leadership? We’ll find out in the next few months what America can do.”

Mr. Paterson, who is New York’s first black governor, also turned the focus on himself, strongly suggesting that people have belittled his governorship not because of the unusual way in which he took office but because of his race.

To Patterson, anyone who does not vote for Obama is continuing the racist ways of our country. We would be crippling ourselves by rejecting Obama even if we don’t agree with anything he says. Patterson believes that if Obama loses it is because people did not like the way he looks. It can’t be the message because Patterson tells us that Obama has the right policies for the next decade.

This, of course, is the problem with liberals. They believe that their message is the correct one so there is no way any thinking person could reject them. Therefore, if you reject Obama you are rejecting him for his color and that makes you a racist. The truth is, not everyone agrees with the message and many of us do not believe it is the correct one for the next decade. His ideas were not the correct ones decades ago when Jimmy Carter came to power and they certainly are not the right ones now.

Patterson goes on to say that he has had a hard time, not because he did nothing to earn his job, but because of his race.

I don’t imagine his admitted drug use and extra marital affair (his and his wife’s) would have anything to do with the way people see him. No, to liberals those messages are right as well.

Get ready folks because the onslaught is coming. A lot of people will be branded racists before this is all over. The Democrats are laying the groundwork early so they can make a lot of people reflect and then feel guilty about the past. Their plan is to tap into enough guilt to get Obama elected.

It won’t work for me. I don’t care what they label me. I will never vote for anyone based on skin color and I will never vote for Obama because he is not what this country needs. I have no guilt and won’t feel badly at all when I vote for someone who is not Obama. If an Obama defeat is a victory for racism, as Patterson says, then I am on the side of victory for racism.

Over 90% of blacks will vote for Obama no matter what because about that percentage votes Democratic anyway. Those who decide not to vote for Obama will be voting against an ideology and not a color regardless of what David Patterson or any other liberal moron says.

I plan on making a redemptive vote. I plan on voting to reject Obama and therefore redeeming America’s slide toward liberalism.

Sharpton and Obama Have Double Standard for Racism

The Reverend Al Sharpton is always quick to point out when some white guy does anything that the Rev thinks is the slightest bit racist. He and his coalition of race baiters got together last year and worked to get Don Imus fired after he called some females a bunch of nappy headed hos. Sharpton was indignant and he had Imus on his show groveling and then pushed to get him fired anyway. At the time Barack Obama said that Imus needed to be fired for what he said. Barry was very clear about how he felt with regard to racial remarks:

“I understand MSNBC has suspended Mr. Imus,” Obama told ABC News in a story dated April 11, 2007, “but I would also say that there’s nobody on my staff who would still be working for me if they made a comment like that about anybody of any ethnic group. And I would hope that NBC ends up having that same attitude.” World Net Daily

Now this is all fine and dandy and Obama got his way because Don Imus was fired. The question I have is, how sincere was Obama when he made his statement about how he would handle racist comments “about anybody of any ethnic group.” The reason I asked is because he did not demand that Jesse Jackson be fired (if anyone can figure out what job Jackson actually holds). Obama did not hold Jackson up to the same standard that he held Imus. Is Obama a racist who will allow blacks to get away with anything they want while he goes after whites? How else can you explain the discrimination, you know treating people differently based on their color.

I am not talking about the Jesse Jackson fantasy about castrating Obama (a deed that was done to blacks during Jim Crow instead of, or in addition to, lynching). I am talking about when Jesse Jackson referred to black people as “niggers.” I know there are other sites that call it the N word but Jackson did not say the N word, he said niggers. If someone called him a bastard we would not call it the B word. Anyway, Jesse Jackson insulted the people to whom Obama was speaking about responsibility. Jesse said Obama was “talking down to black people; telling niggers how to behave.”

Jackson apologized about the earlier comment and it was readily accepted by Obama. This latest item was released yesterday and Jackson actually apologized before it was out. There is no word as to whether Obama will accept this apology as well. I can absolutely assure you that Obama will not call for Jackson to be fired and he will most certainly hold Jackson to a different standard than he held Imus to. Why shouldn’t he? To Jackson this is not a real issue:

“There really is no justification for my comments and I hope that the Obama family and the American public will forgive me. I also pray that we, as a nation, can move on to address the real issues that affect the American people.” CNN [emphasis mine]

See, he wants us to move on to the REAL issues. When Imus said what he did it became a real issue real fast. The black community was whipped into a frenzy by Sharpton. Jackson piled on when Imus was the one who dissed blacks but there is no such frenzy when Jackson, whose statement was much worse than Imus’, is involved. Hell, Sharpton even expressed how much respect he still had for Jackson.

Sharpton certainly did not feel this way when Imus was the center of attention even though Imus apologized over and over and was much more sincere about it than Jesse Jackson. That made no difference and the only outcome the race baiters, as well as Obama, would accept was for Imus to lose his job.

I have been listening to all this crap about racism in America and I am sick of hearing it. There is a small number of people of all colors and nationalities who are racist. The majority of people are pretty good folks who are not racists. The problems arise when decent people see this kind of double standard and they begin to wonder why it is that people who ostensibly want equality expect special treatment. Why is it Obama, Sharpton and Jackson have a different standard than a guy like Imus. Why did they discriminate against Imus and why do they ignore their own bad behavior?

Just keep this in mind for the next time that race baiting poverty pimp, Al Sharpton, complains about some white person. Just remember to tell Al I said to pound sand up his sewer hole. As for Obama, how about someone in the media ask him about his double standard. I know they are all busy packing to go to Europe and the Middle East with the messiah but that does not excuse them from doing their job. I will make it easy for them. Here is the question:

Senator, you said that you would bring people together and that there was no place for racism in the election process and in this country. A while ago you called for Don Imus to be fired for a racist remark and yet you basically ignored the racist remark by Jesse Jackson. Senator, did you ignore it because he is black? Why do you have different standards for black people than you do for whites?

None of them have the guts to ask it and Obama would dance around it.

Senator, Al, and Jesse, bad behavior is bad behavior regardless of the color of the person exhibiting it. You can’t expect to be taken seriously about racial equality when you can’t exercise that yourselves.

What if Jackson had said Lynch Obama?

Last week Jesse Jackson was caught on a hot microphone expressing his displeasure with Barack Obama and he stated that he would like to “cut his nuts off” while making a cutting motion. The sound bite was discovered later by a person who was transcribing the day’s tapes. It was disclosed by Fox (who caught it) but before they did they contacted Jackson about it. He declined to discuss it but made a preemptive apology which was dutifully accepted by Obama.

There are many reasons that Jackson is upset with Obama and the main one, in my opinion, is that an Obama presidency will make him the default leader of the black community and it will put to rest the idea of inequality in America. If a black man can be president then blacks can achieve anything. If Obama gets elected it will make Jackson irrelevant. That is a matter for discussion at another time.

What I want to know is why Jackson was let off so easily. Castration was often used against black men in addition to or instead of lynching them. If a golf commentator can be suspended for saying the other golfers should to take tiger Woods out back and lynch him in order to beat him (a statement Tiger was OK with but Al Sharpton was not) then Jackson certainly deserves greater punishment than his personal embarrassment. Don Imus lost his job over a statement that depicted young black women in an unfavorable light and stories of nooses being hung lead to investigations of a hate crime. Since castration is a symbol of what was done to blacks that “got out of line” why is Jackson let off so easily?

I am not suggesting that Jackson lose his job because to be honest, the man has never worked a day in his life. He extorts money from corporations by threatening boycotts and he uses the tax laws to shelter money from government scrutiny. He has no job to lose so firing him is out of the question.

Why though, has he not been taken to task for his obviously racist remark? Why is he allowed to apologize and all is forgiven when an Imus apology did not stop him from receiving the scorn of the black community and eventually losing his job?

Jackson thrives on face time. That needs to be denied to him and the MSM needs to point out his racist remarks for what they are and not let him off with a weak apology. People like Al Sharpton need to have as much enthusiasm in pursuing this racism as they do when Duke lacrosse players are falsely accused of raping a black woman, when the criminal acts of teens in Jena Louisiana are defended based on their skin color, when a cab driver in New York accidentally hits and kills a black kid, when landlords raise rent on black tenants, when golf announcers mention lynching, and when Don Imus makes a boneheaded statement.

All Al Sharpton and the rest of the race baiters need to do is pursue Jackson just as they would if a white guy had made the statement. In reality, Jackson’s statement was no different than if he had said “I just want to lynch him.”

If you want racial equality, stop having two sets of standards and actually treat everyone equally.

To do anything else castrates your cause…

Black National Anthem Singer Disgraces Denver

Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper got a little more than bargained for when he prepared to deliver his State of the City address. A black lady named Rene Marie was asked to sing the National Anthem prior to the address and after she was introduced she began to sing.

What came out of her mouth was not the United States National Anthem, The Star Spangled Banner; No, instead she sang a song called “Lift Ev’ry Voice and Sing” which is known as the Black National Anthem. The National Anthem was never sung.

Marie decided to sing that song instead of the one she was asked to sing and instead of asking to do so she kept her plan secret so no one would stop her. There was every expectation that she would sing the National Anthem and people were quite surprised by what she did so it is reasonable to assume this was in no way sanctioned.

Marie explained her act by stating:

“When I decided to sing my version, what was going on in my head was: I want to express how I feel about living in the United States, as a black woman, as a black person,” 9News

Of course, no one asked her to sing a song about how she felt and the meeting was not about her. By doing what she did, she split this country even more. She ignored our Nation’s anthem in favor of one that represents only a portion of our nation and pushed her views, the views of a black woman, on every person present. Imagine what would happen if a white person was asked to sing the National Anthem at the NAACP national meeting (I know, but imagine anyway) and instead sang a song that is viewed as a song about white people. There would be an uproar about it and no one would give a spit about what the singer’s feelings were. We would probably get Sharpton and Jackson ranting on TV.

There is a time and a place for everything and this was not the time or place to sing that song. She knew what she was doing was wrong and she knew it would spark controversy. She was so self centered that she didn’t think about the impact of her actions.

Rene, there is but one America even though people like you and John Edwards try to force this two Americas idea on us. We are one Nation under God and we have but one National Anthem and that anthem is color blind.

I would imagine that people will think twice before inviting her to sing the National Anthem. Imagine if she did this at a baseball or football game…
