Criticizing Obama

Anytime someone criticizes the President, it's racist.  The "Joker-Socialist" poster was acclaimed by the left to be racist for no other reason than it took a political shot at Obama.  Joe Wilson told the world during a speech that Obama was lying.  That was racist.  Wilson nailed it, but veracity is color blind.  Obama was lying and we all know it and Wilson had the cajones to say what most of us knew and called him on it.  His approach is not one I approved of, but I doubt race had anything to do with his outburst.

It's time we told the left to shove their race card up into their hinter quarters and tell them to shut up.  Obama is an avowed and open leftist and socialism is not America.  It has nothing to  do with race.  Jimmy Carter is as bad or worse than Obama.  Bad government and bad politicians come in all colors.  Obama and Carter are two of the worst.  It was Jimmy that made me a Republican!

Obama just caved to the Russians for nothing in return.  He is not making us safer.  You do not deal with the likes of Putin from a position of weakness.  In this poker game, you don't throw away your aces and hope your opponent does as well.  It's either madness, or it's idiocy.  Either way, we, as a country, are now less safe.

He lies and then lies again to try and save himself.  He's beginning to look like Bill Clinton on steroids.  I'm getting tired of the "First there is a public option, then there isn't then there is game. 

If I thought for that the government running health care would correct the problems we have, I'd be down at the nearest Democratic Office signing up in a New York minute.  Only the blind partisan thinks nationalized health care would work.  We can't even run Amtrack trains at break even.  We lose a billion a year there and people think the feds can run health care?  I gotta ask you how you can think they will run your health care if they can't even run the damned trains?

So again, take your race card and put it where the sun never shines.  It ain't even personal, it is my opinion and my right to criticize any politician I want.  

I hope that the American people are waking up to this whole race game.  I hope people will start seeing the race shills for who they are and that they are dealing the race card from the bottom.

The Presidential Kegger

So Gates , Crowley and Obama are going to throw back a few beers tonight and talk about their differences and maybe have some kind of "teachable moment".  Aside from the fact they are going to be drinking Bud Light (which to me is kind of like serving wine coolers at a state dinner) there is one person missing from this little summit.  That is Lucia Whalen.

Lucia Whalen has been trashed and threatened for doing nothing more than calling the cops and reporting suspicious activity.  Before the 911 tapes came out, everyone knew she must have described two black males or even worse.  The liberals are reviling her for not instantly recognizing it was the world-renowned, universally acclaimed and instantly recognizable Professor Henry Louis Gates, Junior. 

It's good that Gates, Crowley and Obama are going to have a good-old-boy time tonight, slammin' some brewskis, talk about a little huntin' and fishin', maybe some sports (how 'bout them Nationals. eh?), brag about a conquest or two, and discuss race relations in America.  You know, all the things guys normally talk about when they get together over some beers.

So what about Lucia Whalen?  From Politico:

Instead, she has been reviled. She has been scorned. She was pilloried in the mainstream media and abused in the blogosphere. “Whites like Lucia have bigotry programmed into them,” one Cambridge blogger wrote. “Her description of the two black males is just so, so bigoted. Not only that, it could have led to people getting shot unnecessarily.”

The crap missile is now aimed squarely at her.  Had she not called 911 to report this incident, none of this would have happened.  She is now, the bad guy.  Gates, Crowley and Obama will  maybe drown their differences, but Lucia is left to fend for herself.

This whole incident has become farce.  Gates said stupid things, Crowley said stupid things and Obama said stupid things and the irony is that the only one who didn't say stupid things won't be at the party.

I can't wait to read about it tomorrow.  With the way this whole thing has heretofore played out, it's anyone's guess as to what will happen and what will be reported.  I wonder if they'll even mention her?

Why We Can't Have That "Honest Conversation"

Back last February, Attorney General Eric Holder said this about race relations:

"Though this nation has proudly thought of itself as an ethnic melting pot, in things racial we have always been and continue to be, in too many ways, essentially a nation of cowards," 

And I said back then that as long it is the liberals and race hustlers like Al Sharpton controlling the discussion, we will never have an honest discussion.

Holder can talk about race any way he pleases.  White people, to include white liberals, have no such luxury.  We are only allowed to talk about race within the bounds of white guilt.  If we so much as stray one millimeter from that line, we are racists.

Thursday, Obama's answer to the question about the earlier arrest of Professor Gates is the reason there can be no honesty.  The political left in this country does not want an honest discussion because if we ever really do have that discussion, they could not control the outcome.  When Obama said, before knowing all of the facts,that the Cambridge Police were "acting stupidly", he was providing the settled argument.  By "acting stupidly", he was saying "institutional racism" because all white cops are racist.  It's settled science, just like global warming.  The cops were racist and the poor innocent professor was the victim of their overt oppression.

When it came to light that the story wasn't quite as the professor first stated, it created a bit of a stir; enough so that the President felt compelled to call Sgt Crowley.  While he didn't outright apologize he did "clarify" his remarks.

"I want to make clear that in my choice of words, I think I unfortunately gave an impression that I was maligning the Cambridge police department and Sgt. Crowley specifically. And I could've calibrated those words differently."

Sorry Mr. Obama, but you were indeed maligning them.  You spoke before you knew the facts and ended up with a shoe leather steak in your mouth. 

And "calibrated those words"?  What the heck do you mean by that?  As a mechanic by trade, a number of the tools and test equipment I use must be periodically calibrated.  That is, their accuracy is compared and adjusted (if need be) to a national or international standard. In all my years, I've never seen or heard of words that required calibration.  Me thinks even Dubya probably knows that much.

In any case, Sgt Crowley says he's OK with it and I suppose that's good enough for me.  My main point is not about that so much as it is about this conversation about race we are supposed to be so afraid to have.  Is it any wonder we can't have it?
