an American flag stolen

What was that doing in a BHO campaign office?

(in case it wasn't obvious)

The Washington Post clings to its ink, its racism-mantra. Bitter about the loss of circulation, no doubt.
/need I?

Well, at least they stole an American flag .. leaving the vitally important Che flag for the Obama workers.

This is where the election is headed, with help from the mainstream media: any and all criticism or opposition to Barack Obama will be labeled “racism.”

One doesn't have to be the Kwisatz Haderach to know that anyone who votes against B.O. Plenty will be labeled a racist.

This is where the election is headed, with help from the mainstream media: any and all criticism or opposition to Barack Obama will be labeled “racism.”

Hopefully by November people will be sick to death of being accused of such and vote against him and his tactics.

Yep, vote for Obama or be a racist. It's disgusting if you ask me.

an American flag stolen

They stole their doormat?

How heartless

The charge of "racism" is a heavy bludgeon and the Post does not wield it wisely.

Aside from the vandalism, I actually sort of like this person's style.

"Hamas votes BHO" and “We don’t cling to guns or religion. Goddamn Wright" are both pretty concise.

This is where the election is headed, with help from the mainstream media: any and all criticism or opposition to Barack Obama will be labeled “racism.”

This piece indicates the real reason why leftists can't let go of an utterly inexperienced presidential candidate who has zero legislative accomplishments.

Leftists would rather be burned alive at the stake than to suffer the horror of even the remotest supposition that someone considers them racists. And right now, to Democrats, to say anything negative about their Golden Child is entirely equivalent to racism.

Not a racist or bigot. I don't like his white half.

said she, too, came across "a lot of racism" when campaigning for Obama in Pennsylvania. ...Obama campaign officials say such incidents are isolated, that the experience of most volunteers and staffers has been overwhelmingly positive.

So is it a lot of racism, or is it isolated racism with overwhelmingly positive experiences?

When it came time for the shameless photo-op.

Here's a link for no apparent reason.

Vincennes, Indiana

History
The oldest town in Indiana, Vincennes was originally established in 1732 as a French fur trading post. It was built by François-Marie Bissot, Sieur de Vincennes, and renamed Poste Vincennes in his honor after he was captured and burned at the stake during a war with the Chickasaw nation.

Funny! But probably what was going through the mind of the thief.

I don't doubt that some of these quotes are true. (not the actual incident, which I agree shows no racism unless it is in graffiti left unquoted) This is the first I've heard of anyone actually saying they wouldn't vote for Obama based on race. I've heard tons of people speculate that other Americans wouldn't, usually voiced by concerns if America "was ready."

I will continue to weigh these accounts against the 10,000 incidents of people saying they are voting for Obama *because* of his race.

Racism, evil in all forms, is still helping Obama orders of magnitude more than it is hurting him.

Oh but dont worry...the race card wont be played in the campaign...

our enemy isn't obama, it isn't rev. wright, it isn't even the MSM.

re: #57 pat

According to our intellectual betters, only white people can be racist.

For all the hope and excitement Obama's candidacy is generating, some of his field workers, phone-bank volunteers and campaign surrogates are encountering a raw racism and hostility that have gone largely unnoticed -- and unreported -- this election season.

"Unreported"? Whose fault is that?

I can't imagine the press ignoring it- this article is proof of that. Is it the obama people not reporting it? And if so, why report it now- after the Indiana primary? I smell calculation.

How many have figured it out, the drive by media is the problem, and the sooner they go bankrupt the better off America will be.

Does the WaPO think it's racist that Obama got 90% of the black vote?

This is where the election is headed, with help from the mainstream media: any and all criticism or opposition to Barack Obama will be labeled “racism.”

That strategy is fine, as it guarantees his defeat.

I'm sure all lgf members are labeled Raciest also....

As to the political parties of those few racists they found,

she was pressed by a Clinton volunteer to explain her backing of Obama. "I trust him," Seifert replied. According to Seifert, the woman pointed to Obama's face on Seifert's T-shirt and said: "He's a half-breed and he's a Muslim. How can you trust that?"

But no fear, if people say that race is not a factor, the writer knows that they really are.

Pollsters have found it difficult to accurately measure racial attitudes, as some voters are unwilling to acknowledge the role that race plays in their thinking.

BHO is a Liberal Socialist and will not receive my vote no matter what racist slurs are thrown around.

I have judged the content of his character and on that basis he is unqualified for the office.

Democrats will have to do some self criticism come late November. Are Hillary and Barack the best candidates? Isn't there at least one Democrat with a solid lifetime record of public service and leadership?

When will Obama stop his hate campaign against Republicans and state in detail what changes he proposes. Its easy to promise hope and say what needs changing, but its harder to fix them.

Bush speaks to BBC Arabic TV, condemns Syrian & Iranian support for Hezbollah, Hamas, & terrorists in Iraq.

No. Just mass charges of racism for years to come.

As conservatives, it is our duty to: 1) Expose all cynical and self-serving uses of the charge on the left, and 2) As Barry Goldwater taught us, to identify, denounce and root out the poisons of racism and bigotry on the right.

A large plate-glass window was smashed, an American flag stolen. Other windows were spray-painted with references to Obama’s controversial former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, and other political messages: “Hamas votes BHO” and “We don’t cling to guns or religion. Goddamn Wright

If you think that's bad, wait 'til you see what happens if Obama isn't elected President. But of course, that won't be racism; just poor, downtrodden folks understandably expressing their frustration.

Racist Incidents Give Some Obama Campaigners Pause

I think you're (Charles) putting the emphasis on the wrong syllable* here - Obama's campaign obviously has had an epiphone here, brought about by the vandalism: they've finally realized that the campaign has itself been racist.

Anti-American, Anti-establishment, Anti-capitalism, also come to mind, but maybe they can only focus on these things one at a time.

Oh, I'm cramping up at that thought - sometimes I just think crazy things.

The cries of racism are even more ironic given that Obama is only 6.25% African-American.

The "legal" definition of minority status is 13% (1/8th). His dad was 13% (1/8) African. But the rest of Dad's family were (wait for it)... Arabs with a history of slave trading!

What's your point?

I think Zombie's right. We're going to hear all election season how every criticism of Obama is panned over and given some kind of racist context it was never intended to have. But all those critics can't follow voters into the voting booth and monitor which ballot they marked. I think we may see a very big Bradley effect in 2008, and maybe the Dems will get a clue as to why it happens.

Remember, the general election is not a caucus. I don't have numbers, but I doubt sincerely that Republican female and minority candidates suffer from a Bradley Effect. Republicans pick the best guy (or gal) and try to vet them as best they can before running them, applying the same standards to candidates of all colors, creeds, and plumbing. Democrats have a very bad habit of picking any fool with the right plumbing or skin color to run for office, then once they see the flaws in the candidate, spending the rest of the campaign trying to shut down criticism of their candidates by linking it to some form of bias. This is what causes the Bradley Effect.

Why would the Washington Post call this “bigotry,” when there’s no evidence of it?

Ipso facto, if you are against Jeremiah Wright or especially Obama, then YOU are a racist!

There were hundreds of little campaign signs....hundreds. All for local offices.
As for the primary contest, I saw two little Hillary signs, one on Robert Byrd Avenue (just off the Robert Byrd Parkway) and another on Robert Byrd Road (off the Robert Byrd Expressway near the Robert Byrd Interchange.) Moving up on the Robert Byrd Highway, just across the Robert Byrd Bridge (the one right before the Robert Byrd Underpass,) I saw a droopy little Obama sign on a lawn next to the Robert Byrd Recreation Center. My friend thought she saw another Hillary sign between the Robert Byrd Fire Hydrant and Robert Byrd Flagpole on Robert Byrd Drive (the one after the Robert Byrd Overpass,) but it turned out it was a Bailey-for-Sheriff one.
Our official, indepth survey (!) indicates Hillary will beat Obama 2 to 1 in the primary today.
If we're anywhere close, it should provide delicious fodder for the Everyone-Voting-Against-Obama-Is-A-Redneck-Racist spiel. Ugh. The bigotry of the WaPo left vs. blue collar whites just won't stop.

Anyone wanna guess who's responsible?

HuJI suspected to be behind serial blast in Jaipur

Banned Harkat-ul-Jehadi Islamia (HuJI), operating from Bangladesh, is believed to be behind the serial blasts that rocked the tourist city of Jaipur on Tuesday evening, killing nearly 50 people besides injuring several others.

Though baffled by the attack as Jaipur was not on the terror radar, sources said the tell-tale signs of the blasts indicate HuJI's hand.

If I scoff at his white half every bit as much as I scoff at his black half, am I still a racist?

8) burned Obama signs
9) Mayor and Hillary supporter who questions Obama's lack of patriotism, upbringing, step-father, preacher, etc.
10) Clinton supporter who specifically says she'd vote for a black guy that wasn't Obama "I think if it was somebody other than him, I'd accept it," she said of a black candidate. "If Colin Powell had run, I would be willing to accept him."

I think everyone here pretty much knew this would come out if he was the nominee. Not really a surprise to me. Just another tool in his "toolbox". It is politics after all. I know some black people who wont for him because of his platform. Are they racist?

I don't doubt at all that there are people who hate Obama because of his race (or half-race), and won't vote for him for that reason, but objectively, there are far MORE people who are likely voting for him BECAUSE of his race.

In other words, to the extent that race has been a factor in the campaign to date, its been almost entirely to Obama's benefit.

Again, if Obama were (all) white, Hilary Clinton would have had the nomination sewed up about 3 months ago.

Which is ironic, in a way, given Obama's 20+ year association with a pretty bad BLACK racist, Jeremiah Wright.

re: #24 Edouard

This piece indicates the real reason why leftists can't let go of an utterly inexperienced presidential candidate who has zero legislative accomplishments.

Leftists would rather be burned alive at the stake than to suffer the horror of even the remotest supposition that someone considers them racists. And right now, to Democrats, to say anything negative about their Golden Child is entirely equivalent to racism.

The irony is that leftists are HUGELY racist. They are just in such deep denial that it's amazing. With them, almost everything is about identity politics and race. They want to pigeonhole everyone and, hopefully, come November, this will come back to bite them.

I've noticed the Kidz are labeling any state "racist" with a majority of votes for Hillary. Get ready for more of this same thinking all the way to November.

It's that damn confounded BOolean logic:

"where elements (or "bits") each contain only two possible values, called various names, such as "true" and "false", "yes" and "no", "on" and "off", or "1" and "0"."

I'd vote for 50 other blacks before I'd ever vote for Obama - I can't think of any circumstance under which I'd vote for Obama - and his skin color is not even on my radar.

Before I saw her performance at State, I would have thought that Condi would have made a great first woman AND first African American prez. There was a time when I would have gladly pulled the lever for her because I felt she would be qualified to be CIC. Man, would I have had buyers regret if I had got my way...

I live in Indiana and we are tolerant to a fault sometimes.

During the Iran Hostage crisis, there was a big concern over the HUGE Islamic center of North America that opened a few years earlier; that they would become targets because they were muslim. Not a single incident. In fact, they said they felt extremely safe in our state.

Sure we've had our growing pains. The Klan was big here in the 20's but we tossed their butts out after the Grand Dragon thought he could get away with murder. Now, we tend to dislike people for the character and not the color of their skin. It is likely these vandals just don't like BHO's politics, plain and simple. Hell, they were probably Hilary supporters who popped over the border from Illinois. They definitely hate BHO more than any Republican I know. The dem convention is going to be a bloodbath because there are such fantics on both sides.

I don't anybody that is passionate about John McCain to be motivated to do anything like this. Some of those little old ladies for Hilary are plenty motivated.

Actually, BHO almost has that Bill Clinton quality. Bill was a bastard but he was always likable. But he made it look easy and BHO fell into the trap. BHO just hasn't been in politics long enough to pull it off. Just look at all the crap Bill got away with by just giving a little wink. BHO can't carry it off because he tried too early in his career and most of his skeletons are still alive to cause trouble. We're already starting to pull back the mask to reveal the alien lizard inside.

WaPo doesn't have a clue about Indiana. They don't have a clue about anything.

re: #203 WrathofG-d

I have no problem with a person of mixed heritage feeling more black than white. To each there own experience.

The problem is that, just like Rev. Wright, Obama simultaneously preaches against the racism in America while condoning or spreading his own kind of racism. Because Wright doesn't look all that "black", he postures and rants about being blacker than thou. It springs from a self-loathing, the internal conflict he just can't resolve, so he projects it outward at the "other". It's psychologically stunted & a form of moral narcissism. It is truly sickening.

This is where the election is headed, with help from the mainstream media: any and all criticism or opposition to Barack Obama will be labeled “racism.”

Barack Obama is the candidate of media manufacture. If they get their way with wishes of an Obama presidency, the self-perception of the kingmaker media will rise again in newfound confidence. Media will then aim to destroy people like Charles Johnson and other folks that stood in their way. The media hasn't forgotten his place in the destruction of media icon Dan Rather and are currently noticing his staunch opposition to their golden guy, Barack Obama.

It struck me, the instant I read those words about a flag, that they were a plant.....put there to sway opinion toward Obama.......whether there was a flag there or not; the words give the image of a large, proudly displayed American flag. Obama has no such pride.....

I don't think it's as high as 90%. I recall high 30's. I do think folks vote tribal. Both whites and blacks, hence the 92% black vote for Obama. For this reason, when the majority of American's (88% not black) learn or are reminded of Obama's racists affiliations, he will lose by a landslide in November. They won't vote anti-black, they will vote anti-racists.

re: #220 JohnnyReb

Yes, Colin Powell seemed so presidential. The attitude he has about running for office speaks volumes about his aptitude to be CIC--IMHO

I based my 90% number on the 92% plurality of the black vote going to Obama, the conversations I have and overhear at work and the resposes I have heard into talk radio. (of which I am an addict)

Every show from Randi Rhodes to John Gibson are shouts of agreement from black callers. And many self loathing libs too. I cannot name more than a few instances of blacks distancing themselves from Rev.Wright, but rather spin everything he says into truisms.

re: #262 RTLM

sadly, i have to agree.

You have to thank BHO.

Without him inadvertently exposing them, these black churches would have gone on forever brainwashing their flocks.

That would have led nowhere good.

As far as BHO's presidential aspirations, however, I fear it will result in incredible racial and political polarizations.

He will likely lose, if for no reason than most American's won't want to have a 4-8 year conversation about race where one said claims the US invented AIDS to kill them.

In the privacy of the ballot box, Americans will not vote for a man like that simply to avoid being called 'racist'.

It's a losing proposition for BHO's campaign, and his loss will embitter a lot of people. And they won;t be the Pennsylvanians clinging to guns and relicgion - it'll be the ones clinging to the religion of Obama.
