RSSJimmy Carter, Tea Parties, And Racism
Carl Andrews | October 3, 2009
The misguided fools who, perhaps out of a sense of desperation, simply won’t stop trying to play the race card, still don’t get it.
Folks who protest the President’s policies at Tea Parties and town hall health care meetings are labeled as racist rednecks who just aren’t comfortable with a black man being President.
Dozens of members of Congress, political pundits, and so-called “journalists” have made the claim that racism is behind any criticism of President Obama.
Former President Jimmy Carter removed any doubts about his being a total buffon when he stated:
“I think an overwhelming portion of the intensely demonstrated animosity toward President Barack Obama is based on the fact that he is a black man.”
I would have thought that the race card would have played itself out by now, especially after the President himself has stated that he doesn’t feel that criticism directed at him is based upon the color of his skin.
And I give him credit for that.
President Obama knows that his being a black man is not what causes people to disagree with him regardless of what all of these race-baiters claim.
His policies are what cause people to disagree with him.
We don’t disagree with his policies because he is black, we disagree with him because of his policies:
His takeover of the automobile industry.
(After “Cash For Clunkers” ended, car sales returned to the same dismal levels. After it cost taxpayers billions of dollars.)
His relentless push for “health care reform” when virtually every poll shows the majority of American’s opposed to it.
(And his absolute refusal to step back and start over.)
His adding of trillions of dollars to the federal deficit.
(Not only will your grandchildren be paying off this debt, what happens when the Chinese demand their money back?)
His appointment of more “Czars” than there were during the Romanov empire, who are answerable only to him.
(We didn’t oppose his “green jobs” appointee Van Jones because he is black, we opposed him because he was a self-proclaimed communist and a 9-11 conspiracy nut.)
His continued “warnings” to Iran in regards to their nuclear program, while they thumb their noses at him.
(After recently saying that “Iran has been put on notice”, they showed their contempt of his “notice” by test-firing two ballistic missiles.)
His “stimulus” package, which hasn’t done a damn thing to stimulate the economy.
(Don’t believe that? Check the unemployment statistics.)
Those and other policy decisions and proposals are why myself, folks attending a Tea Party, and millions of other Americans are critical of President Obama.
Even a peanut-picking pinhead like Jimmy Carter should be able to understand that.
