Race Baiting for Dummies

By C. E. Van Buren

 

With a great deal of confusion, I’ve watched for about the last three years as Barack Hussein Obama rose from near obscurity to become, the President of The United States.   A meteoric rise by anyone’s standards, that caught a large number of people, including myself, completely off guard.  However, he achieved his goal, and now we must ride out the damage until at least 2012.

 

The simple fact that he became President, however, is by no means the most troubling occurrence connected with his Presidency.  Much more troubling is what he, and others around him have done to our country in the name of so called ‘good government’.  What is far worse is that they have turned a significant portion of our citizenry against each other through the use of deplorable tactics such as race baiting, name calling, and classifying of people as hater, racists, conspiracy nuts, Nazis, terrorists, and anything else that can cause those on the receiving end of the abuse to back away from what they really believe. 

 

Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and Mr. Obama are the three top offenders in this war of words, and for some reason that I do not understand, the people being called names haven’t the ‘intestinal fortitude’ to simply shrug it off and continue their quests.  This, even more then the practice of name calling, angers me beyond belief. 

 

If you really are a racist, or a hater, or one of the other classifications then you shouldn’t be out here running your mouth anyway.  Those people have no place in politics, and very little of a place in society at all.  Hating someone for the color of their skin, or where they come from, or any other reason for that matter, simply has no place in our society, and those that do should not be allowed to be a part of any serious faction in our country. 

 

Now on the other hand, if your not in fact one of these types, why would you let someone intimidate you through the use of a name, or label?  The Tea Party movement has taken more abuse then anyone can imagine from every Liberal quarter, including our illustrious President, but you don’t see them backing away from their goals.  If anything, it only inspires them to go on.

 

Now I don’t want to get too far off base here, as I have a message that I would like to get across.  However, I have to give credit where it is due.  The Tea Party movement has finally gotten a HUGE number of people that normally watch from the wings, or just sit it our and see what happens, off their backsides and involved in something that could easily become a live or die situation where America is concerned.  For this, and many other things, I give every branch of the Tea Party a great deal of respect, and admiration. 

 

That being said, let’s get back to the point.  Which is, why would you let anyone intimidate you, and force you to relinquish your position simply through the use of a name?  Names mean nothing!  They are a childish, shameful, and simply hatful, way of the Liberals to fight off your opinions because they have no other ammunition with which to fight.

 

They know the people of this country are wise to what they are doing, and have done, and they have no other way to justify it.  All they can do is through out names and hope that it will cause their competitors to run for cover, afraid that others will think the Liberals are right.  Please!  The only person on this planet that knows if you are one of these ‘terrible people’ is you. 

 

The worst of these tactics, in my view, is the ‘race card’.  It has become very common place these days for the Liberals to make a very big thing of anyone that does not agree with them, and publicly call the a raciest.  The logic here, if it can be called logic, is that “this is something that our wonderful President Obama would approve of, therefore if you do not approve you must be a racist”.  I understand that politicians are masters at stretching logic to very near the breaking point, but this is simply stupid.  It is, in fact, far beyond stupid.  It’s down right malicious. 

 

Since Lincoln freed the slaves we have fought to complete their freedom by putting racism behind us.  In fact, we were doing a fairly good job of it, until Barack Obama came along.  Now, he and nearly everyone else around him, have set our efforts back just about fifty years.  The sad part is, it’s not just them. 

 

Many of the various minorities have, as expected, picked up on this and have begun to use it in a very similar manor.   And why wouldn’t they, with the likes of Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and Charlie Rangel, the NAACP, La Raza, and a ton of other ‘spokes people’ out there promoting the same trash.

 

These people should understand what they are doing to what was on it’s way to being a ‘race neutral’ society until Obama came along.  This is probably the saddest part of all.  Because of small minded people using race as a political tool, we stand to pitch nearly fifty years of very hard work, and in so many cases a lot of suffering, right in the nearest land fill.

 

If you take nothing from my ramblings here, take the message that it is time that we all simply forget the ravings of the Liberals.  Put aside the name calling.  Ignore their attempts to separate us.  Regardless of race, creed, color, religion, place of origin, or any other differences we may have, one fact still remains.  WE ARE ALL AMERICANS!!  This is our land, this is our history, and it is up to us how it will be run, and more importantly, by who. 

 

November 2, 2010 is now only three months away.  As Americans, it is our responsibility to remove the Liberals, along with any Representative or Senator, regardless of party, that are not doing what we expect of them. 

 

Let me also add this one note of importance.  This is probably the most important election of your lifetime.  If we cannot stop this Liberal juggernaut, and take back at least the House, or the Senate, or both, I believe with all my heart that the destruction of America will be the result, at the hands of the Liberals.  If you think this is not possible, just look what they have done to us in only seventeen months.

 

We must: FIRE CONGRESS!  THE ROOKIES CAN DO NO WORSE!
