Actually the 'race card' i.e. false accusation of racism for partisan purposes, was shown to be a real problem back in 2008 with the case of Spencer Ackerman. Some lefty activist-journalists were trying to figure out how to deal with the Rev. Wright story. One of them, Spencer Ackermann (known as 'attackerman') came up with the idea of playing the race card.
Spencer Ackerman of the Washington Independent urged his colleagues to deflect attention from Obama’s relationship with Wright by changing the subject. Pick one of Obama’s conservative critics, Ackerman wrote, “Fred Barnes, Karl Rove, who cares — and call them racists.”
You have the question exactly backwards and upside down. The question should be: "does the race card allow the left to perpetuate racial division and hostilites, while purporting themselves to be anti-racism?" And the answer would be 'why, yes.'
Hardly being a sociopath. If I say i don't think gays, lesbians, transgendered and bisexuals should serve in the military, I'll have the 'homophobic' card thrown at me. If Newt calls the president the "Food Stamp president" he has the 'race' card thrown at him.
you don't think i should have access to a career because of an unchosen trait i was born with that does not make me physically incapable of doing a job.
so you're saying believeing i should be a second class citizen is NOT YOU being a BIGOT.. it's ME playing the BIGOT CARD?
even though this has a VERY REAL impact on MY LIFE?

Allowing statements that you've created in your own head based on ignorant assumptions that you've made about people have a VERY REAL impact on your LIFE is a sign of mental instability.

If you guys don't like the race card being used, here is an idea, don't give us a reason to you use it. It is always in our back pocket and we are not afraid to use it. As long as it helps democrats get elected into office, it always be used no matter how baseless the claim may be.

You don't think the majority of the people in this country know that by now? That's why the daily claims of racism are completely ignored by people with common sense, we know that you're liars and you are only looking for political gain.
I don't not like you for your sexual orientation at all. What I want gay people to do is to stop trying to push so hard and accept life as they did in the closeted days. Now don't think I don't want them to stay in the closet because I said that. I want them to let time handle their problem just as you expect me to do with liberals in control of our government. Push a bit gentler than in the past few years and I bet it would happen a lot sooner. Of course, I might be wrong, too.
Whenever a hear or read such a statement, I'm reminded of what Dr. King wrote in his Letter from the Birmingham Jail.
I had also hoped that the white moderate would reject the myth concerning time in relation to the struggle for freedom. I have just received a letter from a white brother in Texas. He writes: "All Christians know that the colored people will receive equal rights eventually, but it is possible that you are in too great a religious hurry. It has taken Christianity almost two thousand years to accomplish what it has. The teachings of Christ take time to come to earth." Such an attitude stems from a tragic misconception of time, from the strangely rational notion that there is something in the very flow of time that will inevitably cure all ills. Actually, time itself is neutral; it can be used either destructively or constructively. More and more I feel that the people of ill will have used time much more effectively than have the people of good will. We will have to repent in this generation not merely for the hateful words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people. Human progress never rolls in on wheels of inevitability; it comes through the tireless efforts of men willing to be co-workers with God, and without this hard work, time itself becomes an ally of the forces of social stagnation. We must use time creatively, in the knowledge that the time is always ripe to do right. Now is the time to make real the promise of democracy and transform our pending national elegy into a creative psalm of brotherhood. Now is the time to lift our national policy from the quicksand of racial injustice to the solid rock of human dignity.
