Once Again, Phony Cries Of Racism

It never fails when it comes to the left. They see racism in everything, except of course in the words of their own adherents who spout racially motivated attacks all the time. This time the focus is on Sarah Palin and her attacks on Obama’s ties to a domestic terrorist. There is no denying that Barack Obama had more than a passing relationship with William Ayers. Therefore, he has associated himself with a domestic terrorist and one who fails to repent for his behavior. In fact, Ayers said that he did not do enough.

Palin attacked Obama for his association with Ayers and the Liberal media has been running cover for The One. The major publications are saying that the association has been debunked (it has not) and that Obama was a child when Ayers targeted our country (he was) and they also report that Obama has denounced what Ayers did in the past.

The Obama Ayers relationship is very real. Ayers held a major fund raiser at his house for Obama and they served together on the board of a few charities. Ayers and Obama have a close relationship and that should make people stop and think.

It is true that Obama was a child when Ayers and his terrorist group bombed federal buildings and killed police officers. But that does not mean Obama should not be held accountable for his judgment. How do you suppose it would play out if Hitler had lived and George Bush befriended him and said “hey I don’t agree with what the guy did but I wasn’t even born when he did it.” Obama can claim that he denounces the acts of Ayers but by befriending him, Obama gives him and the cause he feels did not go far enough, legitimacy. This is the kind of legitimacy that Obama would give Ahmadinejad by meeting with him without preconditions. Perhaps Obama’s failure to make the connection with regard to Ayers is why he is so willing to meet with other terrorists.

It does not matter that Obama has denounced what Ayers did. If you had a neighbor who was friends with bin Laden and rationalized it by saying “Well, I denounced what he did” would you consider that neighbor a patriot or a traitor?

The AP reported on Palin’s comments and they concluded that she had some racist sprinklings in them.

Palin’s words avoid repulsing voters with overt racism. But is there another subtext for creating the false image of a black presidential nominee “palling around” with terrorists while assuring a predominantly white audience that he doesn’t see their America?

In a post-Sept. 11 America, terrorists are envisioned as dark-skinned radical Muslims, not the homegrown anarchists of Ayers’ day 40 years ago. With Obama a relative unknown when he began his campaign, the Internet hummed with false e-mails about ties to radical Islam of a foreign-born candidate.

Whether intended or not by the McCain campaign, portraying Obama as “not like us” is another potential appeal to racism. It suggests that the Hawaiian-born Christian is, at heart, un-American. Breitbart

Let me point out that Obama was the one who said he did not look like the other presidents. The AP is playing a word game by inferring that Palin said things she did not. The AP is helping Obama by planting these seeds. I will also say that she associated him with William Ayers who is white and bringing up the dark skinned Muslim angle is reaching well beyond the line of reality. The AP in this analysis is trying to misdirect the attention of the people. They are saying; “ignore the terrorist connections of Obama, it is a racist remark.”

Barack Obama has questionable relationships with radical and corrupt people including Ayers, Tony Rezko, and Pastor Wright. These associations have not been investigated by the media and have been largely ignored. Any attempt to bring them to light is viewed as racist which gives us a good idea as to how Obama will govern the country. “Congress failed to pass my budget because they are racists.” “How dare you criticize my foreign policies, you racists.”

Obama is a radical as is his wife who has been muzzled so as to keep her from expressing her true hate filled feelings about our country. She and her husband will do anything to get ahead in politics. Obama knew Ayers would be helpful so he allowed him to help. This is the same motivation that allowed him to join and attend a radical church for 20 years. He needed the backing in order to achieve. It does not hurt that Obama and his radical wife hold the same values as the church. Even Oprah, who is a racist, left the church.

The AP is way out of line. Obama’s associations are fair game and if the other side does not like it then too bad. Perhaps if the AP spent time actually looking at Obama’s shady past they would not have time to dream up the bogey man of racism.

Palin needs to keep hammering him on this. Attack, attack, attack. If the media will not do its job then others will have to. Regardless of what anyone thinks about this, it is a fact that Obama has a close relationship with a domestic terrorist. This should matter, and to me it does.

Insider Confirms MSM Bias

This has been around for a day or so but it will not get much attention from the MSM (go figure). Glenn Reynolds from Instapundit received an email from a reader who works in a mainstream media newsroom:

“Off the record, every suspicion you have about MSM being in the tank for O is true. We have a team of 4 people going thru dumpsters in Alaska and 4 in arizona. Not a single one looking into Acorn, Ayers or Freddiemae. Editor refuses to publish anything that would jeopardize election for O, and betting you dollars to donuts same is true at NYT, others. People cheer when CNN or NBC run another Palin-mocking but raising any reasonable inquiry into obama is derided or flat out ignored. The fix is in, and its working.” I asked permission to reprint without attribution and it was granted.

This is as obvious as flatulence in an elevator.

Neocon Latina has an excellent example of this with regard to a story about Obama’s Commie mommy.

IowaHawk has a comical video from Obama’s teleprompter. It shows the “articulate” Obama that appears when the MSM is not there to edit out the stumbles and the teleprompter is not there to save the day.

Obama supporters made a new logo for him complete with the Muslim Crescent and Star. Think the MSM will report on this? Or, this (In farsi it says. ” he is with us and we are with him”)? If so, how would it play? [Gateway Pundit]

The MSM is in the tank for Obama. These organizations have always been liberal but were more careful in hiding it. Now there is no pretense. They openly show their bias and they have no regard for objective journalism.

Big Dog Salute to Little Green Footballs

UPDATE: Need more? The moderator of the VP debate, Gwen Ifill, is an ardent Obama supporter and has written a pro Obama book that is to be released on inauguration day. How can this woman be seen as anything but a partisan hack? She should be replaced. The question is, who should replace her?

UPDATE 2: Raven found that you can now buy your own Obama Carry All Designer Bag. You can purchase it at the Boston Globe store.

Obama’s Global Test Moment

Liberals

John Kerry talked about a global test, the idea that we would run things by the rest of the world to see what they think before we do them. Who cares what the rest of the world thinks because the reality is unless what we are running by them is some way to let them have more of our hard earned money or a plan to protect them with our military, they will be unlikely to agree with us. This did not stop Barack Obama from putting out his version of the global test. According to NRO:

Second, at the very end Obama seemed to be going for a big finish. He talked about his father from Kenya “writing letter after letter” trying to come to college in the U.S., because in no other country on Earth could one make it like here—”our ideals and values inspired the world.” Powerful stuff.

But then Obama concludes by saying ” I don’t think any of us can say that our standing in the world now, the way children around the world look at the United States, is the same. ” CLANG. He then states, reminiscent of Kerry’s “Global Test”, that we need to “show the world that we will invest in education” and “things that will allow people to live their dreams”.

Let me just jump in and say that I can say that our standing in the world is one in which children can believe they have a chance like no place else on Earth. There Barry, I said it and I mean it.

The United States of America does not have a problem with people trying to get here and they want to be here because the American Dream is still alive and well. People risk their lives walking across deserts, being smuggled in in the back of trucks or the cargo hold of ships, they risk drowning to get here from Cuba and they do this because America offers them freedom. These people come here, often in violation of the law, just to taste freedom. We don’t have to build a wall to keep people in, we have to build one to keep them out (I don’t excuse their illegal behavior, just point out they are willing to break the law to get here).

Diplomats from oppressive countries love the freedoms they have while assigned to the US. They may come and go as they please, shop where they want, say what they want and they live a much better life than they could ever hope to in whatever crap hole country they come from.

Make no mistake, our standing in the world is extremely high among the citizens of other countries who long to live here where they can be safe and enjoy the blanket of freedom that opens the human spirit and allows people to live life to its fullest. We might not be held in high regard by their leaders but in the hearts of the people, those allowed to know about the world, we are the only real hope.

So Senator Obama, I beg to differ with you because my life experiences have shown me a different America than the one you describe. We are the lighthouse that people steer toward to illuminate the darkness of night. Most importantly, the people who live here have the best opportunities in the world and so long as they do the opinion of those outside our borders is of no consequence.

Senator, you are not running to be King of the World. You are running to be President of the United States and what we think here should be the most important thing in your mind.

Then again, I would not expect anyone with a soul mate who says:

“For the first time in my adult lifetime I am really proud of my country. And not just because Barack has done well, but because I think people are hungry for change.”

To actually understand this.

I have always been proud of America, ALWAYS, and I don’t need a global test to tell me that I should feel that way.
