Liberals manufacture a crisis, create internal social strife, always trying to kick the hornet's nest. It's a never ending push towards their agenda, and it requires a continual process of creating friction and social animosity between disparate groups of people, for the express purpose of setting themselves up as the only qualified arbiters. They create the illusion that only they and their cronies can protect us from each other, and keep the barbarians at the gate.

Look at race issues in our modern society, it doesn't take a genius to see who is fabricating it all. While there are a few small groups of racists out there, such as the KKK, they are extremely isolated and an EXTREMELY small minority. The majority of modern day racism is falsely constructed by a certain group for political power.
Please put the crack pipe down OP.

Why don't you engage in the discussion instead of using hyperbole, ad hominem attacks, and a red herring(a trifecta of fallacies) in one short one line response?

If we are such racists, and bigots in the USA:

1) why did we elect a black man as president twice

2) why are two Latino men the favorites to run for the Republican presidential ticket in 2016

3) why are two women the favorites to run on the Democratic side in 2016?

I am sure you will ignore that simple fact, and it does not matter, the truth is the readers here are not stupid and can figure out who it is that is doing what here and in Congress.

93% of blacks voted for Obama who they will defend no matter what. If Obama represents how they think and who they are, I've lost my respect.

1)YOU didn't

2) Because they say what you want to hear and neither has a snowballs chance in Hades of winning the nomination, no less the Whitehouse.

3) Are there two, all I ever hear are Cons whining about Hillary, is Condi gonna run as a Dem, do you have something against Women in politics?
