When exactly was the last time you witnessed or read in history about an all-powerful group of black folks, farmers, business owners, lynching a poor white person and having a picnic in the town square for all the black folks to watch?

And when was it that blacks were the dominate political group in this country, and when was it that they controlled all the major corporations and held the highest political offices in this country?

This sentence was very telling from the OP link:

"Dowd's charge of racism is hardly the first to be leveled against administration critics. "

99% of liberals believe that those who criticise 0bama have no reason to do it other than race. The United States is going wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy too far to the left. I avoid criticising him in public. We are on our way to our own "1984", slowly, but we are on the way.
Please. If I yelled out something like that either in class or at a school event at which the principal or someone else was speaking, my butt would have been in trouble at school and home. At the very least, I would have got detention and at the worst would have been expelled. Now comes along this wimp guy from S.C., and thinks he can just yell out "Liar" in a formal, televised event. Who does he think he is? Well, what do you expect from someone who keeps autographed pictures of his mentors Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh in his wallet.

And why is it that the subject of racism seems to be feared by so many people? Why is it that the subject of racism, plain and simple, is not discussed here?

IMO, it is to the advantage of people who have white nationalist beliefs and views to keep others with opposing views from discussing the issue, therefore, the constant attempts to paint those who oppose the w/n views as racists themselves.

People said the exact same things about George Bush, word for word, except it came from the "diversity dictators". They called Bush an ape, they called him a Nazi, they said he planned 9/11. And no one cared when they said that

But now, if you say some Chairman 0bama's tie isn't tied right the left is ready to take you to the guillotine. This is just like in China, where people are not allowed to criticise their government and those who do are quickly crushed.
I have not suspected ALL tea party members as being racist. i even attended the glenn beck party here at the Alamo. I really feel that some of them have ALWAYS been anti-tax, but have questioned why they never seemed to protest Bush and his free-spending ways when he was in charge. In wilson's case, we Are talking about a 50-something year old southern man who has connections with racist organizations. it's not a big jump to say that he has racist sympathies. that is just a fact, not a race card.

What does that have to do with anything happening TODAY? Please don't tell us you subscribe to that whole, "only white people can be racist" philosophy that only works as an accepted theory in college?

No one said that happens, because it doesn't.

The point is, is that racism can come from every race, religion, creed, nationality, colour, or ethnicity. According to the left though, it only comes from whites. Many of my friends are black and I have often heard them saying racist things about asians, making slitty eyes with their fingers, making fun of the way they talk, etc. No one seems to care about that though. It's ALL WRONG. ALL OF IT. The problem is, is that the left won't own up to that.

It has been discussed over and over on other threads, and shown clearly, that Obama did not lie.

The Wall Street Journal did a fact check that showed Obama lied numerous times during his speech.
