You didn't read the links...... Clinton was called a Socialist and I linked it and Clinton was called un-American (he was protesting the U.S. on Vietnam in the UK and Moscow).

Man give it up. Bill Clinton was not called a socialist by conservatives. He was not called anti-American by conservatives.

He was not called a race baiter. He was not called an anti- colonial Kenyan. He was not said to be hanging around terrorist.

He was not called a muslim. They didn't say he didn't love America. He was not called a muslim.

His citizenship was never questioned. Will you please stop making stuff up.

conservatives believed plenty of insane things about President Clinton some of which I detailed, but he was never considered some radical anti-American who is an other.

It just didn't occur.

But that otherness label is applied to President Obama and it is 100% motivated by racism.

This is the difference. You didn't have prominent Democrats saying that GWBush allowed 9/11 to occur.


You didn't have prominent Democrats saying that the GWBush tax cuts were enacted to destroy America.

You didn't have prominent Democrats saying that the GWBush war in Iraq was all a radical plan pushed by GWBushes unAmerican upbringing.

These kinds of insane conspiracy theories weren't uttered by prominent Democrats, but every insane President Obama talking point is repeated by elected and prominent conservatives.

This is the difference.
Oh bull. Bush was attacked non stop as being in bed with the rich, hated america, claiming his tax cuts were responsible for the recession, how he was responsible for 911, some even accused him of orchestrating the attacks, was in bed with oil tycoons from the middle east and out to destroy americans by raising the price of gas etc.

Just stop. I'm so tired of hearing this "waaa you called Obama a name, you're a racist" bull crap from the left.

No, Im talking about prominent and elected conservative officials saying President Obama is not an American. Prominent and elected conservatives saying President Obama doesn't love America.

Prominent and elected conservatives saying President Obama was palling around with terrorists.

Prominent and elected conservatives saying that President Obama is an anti colonial Kenyan.

Prominent and elected conservatives saying that President Obama is a race baiter is a black radical that is against white people.

Prominent and elected conservatives saying that President Obama is bringing in "illegals" to steal the elections.

Prominent and elected conservatives saying that President Obama had an unAmerican and radical upbringing, etc and so on.

Prominent and elected conservatives who have said President Obama is an unabashed socialist.

I am not asking about those who vote Republican, whether or not they are racist is immaterial, I am talking about the Republican membership of the 111th, 112th, 113th and 114th United States Congress.

Considering they have put forth little reason to be overwhelmingly obstructionist during the Presidency of the United States first African-American President, someone who has bent over backwards to appease Republicans, will history view the overwhelmingly white, older, male membership of the GOP as racist? Will President Obama breaking the color barrier, and the irrational level of opposition faced in doing so, be attributed to a Jim Crow level of disdain for this nations first black President?

Or will this opposition to President Obama be rationalized as something else in 2066?

The only demographic I see that is making everyone a racist, is the Progressives. The party of the Godfather of Progressives, Woodrow Wilson. Segregation brought to America. Hillary "I'm a 20th Century Progressive" Clinton..... You think she has the black Americans best interest in mind? She will like all the elite Progressives in the past, figure out a way to bond them into slavery, where there is no way possible for them to make it, without government taking care of them all, for the vote to keep them in power..... The Protected Class was created, to collect votes for the democrats.

They have to arrest every black American, so they can never legally buy a gun to protect themselves from the Progressive Bully cops, when they want to be free from the plantation.

He was in bed with the rich. Democrats definitely believe conservatives economic policies are plutocratic.

No, prominent or elected Democrats didn't say GWBush hated America.


They didn't blame his tax cuts for the recession. They said his tax cuts produced huge budget deficits and were a huge giveaway to the rich both of which are 100% accurate.

No, Democrats didn't blame GWBush for 9/11. His popularity soared after 9/11. If prominent and elected Democrats would have been openly saying GWBush was responsible for 9/11, his popularity would have been muted.

Again, the 9/11truthers are not uniformly Democrats and none of them are repeated by prominent or elected Democrats.

Again no prominent or elected Democrats were saying that GWBush was trying to destroy America with high gas prices.


You simply refuse to see reality, that things you believe were said about GWBush were not uttered by prominent Democrats. It just didn't happen.

But every single insane and racist belief about President Obama is parroted by prominent or elected conservatives.

I already explained.


Yeah, they are when the words don't fit the actions of the person.

The only explanation becomes why are they saying these insane things that don't fit.

Oh its because they really are upset and scared of the man's racial identity and the demographic changes that are occurring in America, but they can't say that out loud, but they can say they hate President Obama cause he hates America, is a social/communist, is not an American citizen, is a radical muslim, that hates white people, that had an unAmerican upbringing.
These ideas all convey that President Obama isn't a "normal" Americans, there is something different and radical about him. He is an other not at all like his critics and most other Americans.

This kind of thinking and rhetoric is wholly motivated by racism.
