CBC staff: Opposition to Obama is racist | Campaign 2012 | Washington Examiner

This Angela Rye of the CBC said this https://twitter.com/#!/@angela_rye

If you have twitter, might be worth letting her know how stupid her comment is or how desperate it is.

Quote:
"There's an ad, talking about [how] the president is too cool, [asking] is he too cool? And there's this music that reminds me of, you know, some of the blaxploitation films from the 70s playing in the background, him with his sunglasses," Rye said. "And to me it was just very racially-charged. They weren't asking if Bush was too cool, but, yet, people say that that's the number one person they'd love to have a beer with. So, if that's not cool I dont know what is.
She added that "even 'cool,' the term 'cool,' could in some ways be deemed racial [in this instance]."
Are they really going to try the race route again? I dont think trying to pressure people into feeling guilty is going to work time, nor using the race card. Especially if you are going to this idiotic extreme.

According to Jodi Miller, Barbara asked Michelle if they planned to use the race card this year and the reply was only if we have to do it. I am sure that according to this piece they will use it this time around. Many people just can't stand to think that they will be called racist if they don't vote for him. I will be very proud to vote against him.

Toady Boy Michael Smerconish, the quasi conservative quasimodo fill in host for Chris Matthews on MSNBC did a segment on Mitt Romney's troubles with donuts and snacks on the campaign trail. So if someone were to poke fun at Obama for something this trivial and irrelevant it would be considered racist?
I don't get it. Is there a gas leak over the entire country?

Its partially their normal idiocy and partially desperation. But I really dont think its going to work well. Most sane people will look at this garbage as nothing but using the race card just to use the race card, because that's all they know how to do.

And they dont like to discuss it either. I called this Angela moron blocked me on twitter. She, and others like her, have no answer for those that dare question them and their stupidity. If we had even a decent media, they would take them to task for these silly allegations.

As I said in another post

When you see the what white people have DID and SAID about this guy, then it's racism.

1. Maybe you have finally got around to looking at those images of Tea Party protesters coming to rallies with signs portraying the President as an African witch doctor ?



Or maybe somebody informed you of the racist e-mails lately, like those portraying the white house lawn covered in watermelons



2. Or white people likening Michelle Obama to an ape ?

SCGOP Activist Posts Remark Disparaging First Lady :: :: FITSNewsFITSNews

3. Or white people picturing the President as a pair of “spook eyes” against a black background ?

Republican Staffer E-Mails Obama 'Spook' Photo | Pith in the Wind




4. Or the Tea Party candidate sent e-mails picturing the President dressed as a pimp and featuring a group of African tribesman performing a traditional dance ?

Tea Party NY Gov Candidate’s E-Mails Exposed: Racism, Porn, Bestiality | TPMMuckraker

5. Or maybe you heard of them guys FreeRepublic.com who called the President’s daughter, Malia, “typical ghetto trash,” and a “whore” whose mother likes to entertain her by “making monkey sounds ?”

Malia Obama called 'ghetto street trash' on Free Republic thread

But no one is racist here. Yeah ?

Debating with guys like you is a bit like fighting Zombies, no mater how many you smack down, they still keep coming.
