Blacks are the human shields of the Democratic Party"
Who is the Racist?
More to follow.

8:25pm, same day...
The first quote is from John Lennon who was, by all accounts and understandings, NOT a racist, so the quote must be viewed in context-- that being the early seventies and the push for equal rights for women.
The second quote is very recent-- just last week. David Horowitz, former sixties Marxist-radical-turned-conservative. Having witnessed, lived among, and marched beside the radical leftist underbelly in his early years (having been raised by parents who were life-long Communists), the scales fell from his eyes, and he was fortunate enough to see the Left for what it was. What passes for Leftist today is not markedly different from the ideals Horowitz believed and supported in his youth, except that it is blacker now; steeped more thoroughly in the dregs of social evil.
What I found so shocking about his quote is how much power is conveyed in just nine words. And not just power, but truth as well. American slavery was a "democratic" institution and, thanks to the introduction of welfare and planned parenthood, still is. The only difference between pre-emancipation Blacks and Blacks today is that pre-emancipation Blacks knew they were slaves.
The Democrat Party, Network and Print Media and their echo chambers use the words "Racist" and "Racism" to silence critics of any policy or person they support. They demand their opponents adhere to a standard to which they steadfastly-- indeed, pathologically --refuse to hold themselves.
Rep. Joe Wilson yells out "YOU LIE!" and Democrats demand apologies-- any criticism of Obama, however justified, is viewed as emanating from the mind and heart of racism. The Left is outraged that Obama is portrayed as an African witch doctor or in "Joker" face-- they are outraged by a cartoon of a dead chimp, and references to the president's stimulus.
But where were these same people during the Bush years?
- Calling the president a liar. (Did that make men like Obama racist?)
- Calling Bush, and depicting him as a Chimp.
- What about the Democrats who "BOO-ed" the president during a joint session of Congress, during his State of the Union?
- What about the movie produced depicting the assassination of President Bush?
- What about the criticism of his policies-- criticism deemed by the Left as "Patriotic"?
I could only wish that the word "Hypocrite" were strong enough to describe the Left... the Democrats. But it isn't. In my heart of hearts I know of only one word to describe these hypocrites... they are evil.
But what is 'evil'?
- Morally objectionable behavior
- Morally bad or wrong; "evil purposes"; "an evil influence"; "evil deeds"
- That which causes harm or destruction or misfortune; "the evil that men do lives after them; the good is oft interred with their bones"- Shakespeare
- Having the nature of vice
- The quality of being morally wrong in principle or practice; "attempts to explain the origin of evil in the world"
- Malefic: having or exerting a malignant influence; "malevolent stars"; "a malefic force"
So, it's not until the last definition that you really enter the realm of evil as perceived by most; to mean, 'demonic.' Morally Objectionable Behavior sits atop the list.
What is morally objectionable about today's Democrat Party and its President?
- Their steadfast defense of Murder; Abortion
- Their steadfast desire to tax unequally the rich
- Their steadfast desire to control every aspect of both society at large and the individual life
- Their steadfast refusal to hold their members to the same standards to which they hold everyone else
- Their willingness to lie, cheat and steal to achieve the ends of that illusory and mythic beast, Social Justice
Is the President of the United States of America a liar? His recent address to both houses of Congress says 'Yes'. But where is the racism?
It is generally agreed that the first person to invoke Hitler and the Nazis as comparisons to one's political opponents has lost the debate. Why isn't the same true of the word "Racist"?
So here's the deal. If anyone at this blog or any other I frequent chooses to use the term "racist" or "racism" to describe honest objections to what Barack Obama is trying to do to this country, they had better be able to defend it, because I will not hesitate to rip them a new one AND, if it be within my power, deny them any further voice unless they can debate honestly.
I am tired of suffering fools. If you wish to be a fool, that's your business, but I will not waste any time on you. Nor will I allow you to waste anyone's else time.

President Obama said Friday that he did not believe his race was the cause of fierce criticism aimed at his administration in the contentious national debate over health care, but rather that the cause was a sense of suspicion and distrust many Americans have in their government.
LA Times: "In media blitz, Obama says vitriol isn't racism-based"
Fear of "big changes" and of the growing role of government -- not racism -- are behind much of the criticism that the White House faces, President Obama said during a sweeping series of television interviews to air Sunday.
Lead story of Time's "The Page" this morning: "Obama: Health Care Anger Not Motivated by Race"
The president tells NBC News the health care criticism is driven by an intense debate over the proper role of government -- and not by racism.
CNN: "Obama: Race not 'overriding issue' in criticism"
In an interview with CNN's John King airing on "State of the Union with John King" this Sunday, Obama acknowledged that racism plays a role in some of the criticism against him, but added that race is "not the overriding issue."
Those pesky democrats always interjecting race into the discussion.
Nor was the question about how many times Obama has stood up and said the criticism toward him isn't race-based.
The question is: Why do so many on the left, primarily in media, inject race into the argument every time any criticism is leveled at Obama?
It was fine, patriotic even, during the Bush years to accuse, malign, impugn, and otherwise denigrate Bush during his presidency. But now that the president is a Democrat any criticism is labeled, by Leftist media, its punditry, and its echo chamber, as Racist.
It is, as I alluded, akin to calling one's ideological opponent a 'Nazi.' It demonstrates the weakness of such a one's position, whether they realize it or not. A position, I might add, that is easily toppled. [One caveat here: Comparing policy to policy is one thing, i.e.; the Nazi political and social movement before and during the second world war to Current trends in political and social movements. This is quite different than than comparing the negative connotations of Nazism, i.e.; death camps, Hitler youth, etc., to "supposed designs" of specific political or public figures. One truth remains throughout it all, however: We Must Not Be Made To Be Afraid To Call A Black Man "Black". It is ignorant, disingenuous, and cowardly]
To Obama's credit he's smart enough to, at least, recognize the honest ire his presidency has engendered in middle America. You know, the one sandwiched between New York and California? Whether he believes what he says, or not, is irrelevant-- for all his intellectual failings, he's smart enough to not "go there".
He lies.
He can say anything he wants if he thinks it will deflect criticism of him and his Marxist agenda.
And I knew the first one was Lennon's.
