Here’s Mr. Carter talking about how anyone who doesn’t support Obama’s policies is just flat-out racist.
Well, if Jimmy Carter calls anyone who opposes Obama a racist, then it MUST be true, right?
GAWD.
I should be shocked by this? At this point, the racist argument is becoming downright laughable to me. There is no shock value in it whatsoever. It’s been played by the Democratic party so much that it’s getting pathetic now. I mean, when a Liberal/Democrat has no argumentative ammunition – something POSITIVE to say about Obama, his administration, his policies, his accomplishments thus far, or those of the many criminals, wackjobs, corrupt organizations and hypocrites he associates with – it’s much easier to just throw the race card. Hell, I could be pink with purple polka dots, married to a black man, with a Chinese baby, and if I didn’t like Obama’s policies – I’d still be a southern redneck racist.
Well, thanks for enlightening me, oh Democrat intellectuals!
This is CLASSIC and blatant deflection at its finest. I mean, why bother with a valid debate that has actual merit and substance, really? Race trumps everything according to the left – including both logic and reason. It trumps real debate about real issues at hand. What I’d like Mr. Carter to tell me is exactly HOW the healthcare legislation will be paid for. Not the rhetoric B.S., but specific data. I’ve yet to receive that from the administration, so it’d be a wee bit helpful at this point. I’d also like for him to tell me how wonderful and law-abiding ACORN is, and how the seven Senators who chose to keep giving funds to them are not sexist and complete criminals themselves by association (for condoning the prostitution and abuse of underage girls to make money for the advancement of the Democratic party). I’d like for him to tell me why he believes Van Jones should have kept his job. I’d like for him to tell me that Obama is doing the right things when it comes to national security. I’d like for him to tell me when and where Obama has kept his hopey-changey campaign promises. I’d like for him to tell me all of these things and much, much more. In fact, I’ve asked for this ad nauseum – from liberals who write into us and scream emotional responses to posts – without any clear data to support why Obama is doing such a bang-up job. But, lo and behold, I’ve never received responses from those screaming people. Instead, I’ll get just more of the stock, emotional, fingerpointing responses that have nothing to do with any of the issues at hand.
Empty rhetoric doesn’t pay my power bills, Mr. Carter. Nor does it keep my husband and I in our jobs. Nor does it keep my family safe from terrorists. Nor does it mean jack CRAP when all is said and done. Much like the color of someone’s skin. Huh.
When “racist!” is spewed, the conversation is over. And, right now, this is what Democrats want. Because their arguments – or the lack thereof – are LAME. They want everyone to stop pointing out the flaws of the administration – the gaping HOLES in the legislation. The absolute vagueness. So, what are they doing? They’re deflecting, then feeding off the emotional responses of people in this country by screaming, “You’re a racist if you don’t like what we’re doing right now!”
All because I don’t like the policies of a man (who is just as much white as he is black, by the way). By Democratic deflection, I’m a racist. Interesting how that works.
I believe this is going to become embarrassing for the Democrats who have nothing of substance to say. For me, that point is already here. Way to keep elevating the discourse. I would’ve expected much more from a former leader of the free world, but I guess my expectations were a bit too high. Go figure.
