have really put the pedal to the medal accusing blacks and hispanics of being racist towards whites?
Just look at CDF.....
While I realize that this is my opinion and it would take a lot of work to factually prove it (except for, again, looking at CDF postings)...I never saw them post, 90% or more, wrongfully, that "look at the racism, by blacks, against white people!", while Bush was in office.
Taking talking points from Limpballs and Beck perhaps and running away with them?
Again, as anyone else noticed this?

I call it self-defense. All we've heard is that if we dare to speak up against obama's policies it must be because he's black and we're racist.

1st not all anyone is racist. I believe its coming from whites are getting sick of the double standard and being called a racist for no reason other then not agreeing with Obama. So they are now pointing out the racism from others.

More like desperation.

Having no real ideas of their own, they have to fabricate controversy to justify their obstructionism.

Obstructionism? Which party has the majority in congress? What exactly has been obstructed?

The irony is of course, that any time a liberal now mentions race they are chastised 6 ways to Sunday. Because we got a non-white president, yanno, we can't point out racism anymore... or some stupid logic along those lines...

*chuckles*

I didn't say that they were successful in their attempt to obstruct.

But that is generally what conservatives do - try to maintain the status quo, because the status quo favors them. They are by their very nature obstructionist and opposed to change.

Thanks to the sorrid history of race relations in America, before Obama was elected, there have been blacks and hispanics pointing out racism towards them, by whites, regulary, often with reason......
before Obama was elected, uncommon for white conservatives, or whites period (save for Stormfront and the KKK), to complain about racism, by non whites vs. them....
since Obama's been elected....they've been almost off the charts, complaining that minorities, (particulary blacks) are oppressing them, being racist towards them and taking their country away......
why so?
if it's "revenge" that's very, very silly and doesn't hold water.

Yes, even I sympathised with the whites who said if he was elected the "blacks would take over", he was going to take everthing from white people and give it to black people, he was a communist, muslim, ni@@er, monkey,anti-American, and this was before he was elected.

After his election the vitriole got even worse, now these same people want to say that black people are racist as a group of people??!!

Many whites are being played for suckers and fools, no matter how loyal you are to the Tea Party, state's right's are not coming back and the millionaires who created and bank roll these "grass roots" organisations sit back smugly while you throw your misguided frustarations at this President because you want your "country back".

The arrogance shown by people who seem to think that the US is "owned" by any particular block of voters is astounding.

This country belongs to every one of it's citizens, not just some jingo-eyed fools who watched Red Dawn one too many times.

Why do they hate Democracy?
