Harry Reid, Senate Majority Leader and all-around racist
Los Angeles Times
Shortly after the first Tax Day tea party, last April, political scientist, American historian, and noted psychologist Janeane Garofalo appeared on the suitably high-brow news analysis show “Countdown with Keith Olbermann” to give her learned assessment of the protesters and their motivation.
“Let’s be very honest about [...]
I was going to do a “Quote of the Week,” but I really can’t decide. It’s been a bonanza week for boners and what follows is hardly exhaustive. I like this one that Greg “Teh Resistance” caught:
In front of the Senate Judiciary committee:
Graham: Can you give me a case in United States History where a enemy combatant caught on the battlefield was tried in civilian court?
[crickets]
Holder: “Hmm… I’d have to look at that… the determination…”
STOP THE PRESSES!! YOU MEAN TO SAY THAT HE DOESN’T ALREADY KNOW?!! I guess the consultations with [...]
When Eric Holder branded the country who had just elected its first black president as a “nation of cowards” on matters of race, he apparently had his boss in mind. According to a New York Times article on the growing — and foolish — debate over whether anyone who opposes Obama’s policies is automatically a [...]
Left-Prejudice n. The ascription of racial motivation to any action or comment by a conservative that is critical of black people, especially Barack Obama.
The above word does not yet exist as part of the English language but at the rate the current liberal j’accuses are arising, I predict it will.
The latest example of left-prejudice comes [...]
In 2006, Michelle Malkin wrote about the WaPo’s coverage of a study that claimed to show conservatives are more biased against blacks than liberals. Ever since Barack Obama emerged on the political scene, the race card has been played tediously often by liberals. Former Airhead America hateress Janeane Garofalo wrote off the entire Tea Party [...]
The same Justice Department that has launched an investigation into the interrogation methods of the CIA dropped an investigation last month into charges of voter intimidation by two members of the New Black Panthers outside a Philadelphia polling place last Election Day. One of the two men, Samir Shabazz, was said to have been brandishing [...]
Hey, everybody — great news! Eight weeks to the day after I sent in four boxtops from specially marked boxes of White Guilt-brand Cereal plus 50¢ for shipping and handling, my liberal decoder ring finally arrived. And it’s a beaut, as you can see for yourself!
Now when liberals call us conservatives racists for opposing the [...]
MadisonConservative writing at the Green Room at HotAir.com provides an interesting link to a phenomenon called 365Black. What you ask is 365Black? If you work in publishing, you may have guessed that it is Pantone color, but you’d be wrong.
Part of the answer, which is provided conveniently at a link at 365Black.com titled “What [...]
Whenever an article begins “On that heady evening last August when Barack Obama claimed the Democratic presidential nomination before an adoring throng in Denver,” you know something good is on the way. When the same article goes on in the same initial paragraph to quote Andrew Sullivan, consider it fair warning that you should put [...]
Ordinarily, I don’t cite Ann Coulter, not because I disagree with her (much of the time I don’t) but because she has become such an explosive media presence. Just mention her name in polite conversation, and watch the people in the room — liberals and conservatives alike — go ballistic. “Oh, Ann Coulter,” they begin [...]
By now the name Kenneth Gladney is known, if not widely, in political circles. If the name fails to strike a responsive chord, let me tell you that Gladney is not running for office, though in the estimation of many (yours truly included), he is a patriot.
Ken Gladney is a black conservative who was peacefully [...]
There is this tension:
Christianity popularized an important opinion, already implicit in the teaching of the Stoics, but foreign to the general spirit of antiquity . . . the opinion that a man’s duty to God is more imperative than his duty to the State [Bertrand Russell, A History of Western Philosophy (1972), p. xvi].
Prescinding for [...]
I’m sure you’ll all be happy to find out this morning as you wake up that the U.S. is no longer at war with “terrorism.”
I always thought that being at war with “terrorism” was a bit silly. I’m in the “bombs don’t kill people, people kill people” camp. But, I always knew that replacing [...]
William Jefferson is found guilty. I chalk it up to racism.
