“Few would have seen on that day that… that their American ally would be led by a man of African descent.”

Some Apologies from the Obamamedia Are in Order for Falsely Accusing New Hampshire Primary Voters of Racism »

Today the American Association for Public Opinion Research Ad Hoc Committee on the 2008 Presidential Primary Polling released a pdf report on the methodologies utilized by pollsters during the Democratic primaries. It is a long report, and a cursory analysis of it is available at Pollster.com. Much of the report focuses on the [...]

Why Start Now? »

To expect Obama to speak out against his minion’s boorish, often aggressive behavior? That’s my response to the following article, The Ugly Side of the Inauguration: Obamamania’s Mean Streak (and MAJOR H/T to American Girl in Italy for this link). The author, Mr. Frederick, had this to say:
Ironic that on Inauguration Day, when [...]

The Racial Narrative vs. Reality »

In her Washington Post editorial, He’s Not Black, Marie Arano discusses the election of Barack Obama and mentions something no one bothers to talk about:
He is also half white.
Unless the one-drop rule still applies, our president-elect is not black.
We call him that — he calls himself that — because we use dated language and logic. [...]

Post Election Quibbles and Bits »

Well, the election is over and we all need to figure out next steps. However, while we indulge in mulling, there’s stuff going on. Do you know where one of the “front lines” is in international war / finance / fraud? Computers. At least Obama now knows this first hand. [...]

i’d like to say… »

Watching the Obama supporters last night, with tears streaming down their faces, their screaming, clapping, dancing and fainting, I have to admit I was a bit emotional myself. I appreciate what this means to African Americans, you could see it on their faces. Juan Williams cried through his whole commentary.
And, as opposed to an [...]

Spread the Wealth but Concentrate the Blame »

A few days ago, NQ posted a story based on audio of an interview Obama gave in 1995. This piece was about race. The now-viral video about redistribution of wealth is from a 2001 interview, and it covers the redistribution of wealth and justice from the perspective of civil rights legislation. We’ve [...]

Obama’s Race-Baiting »

Obama has said he is all about trans-racial politics even while his past associations with the likes of Rev. Wright, Father Pfleger and other race salary-men suggest otherwise.
Gatewaypundit has a video today from Naked Emperor News with some comments from BO back in 1995. Yeah, it’s a few years ago. But he [...]

Obama’s Fairness Doctrine, Iran/Russia gas cartel and Palin, some “character” concerns, race-baiting for Dummies, and Secret Service finds NO ONE yelled “kill him” »

While pundits talk endlessly and badly about the debate (that CNN panel is ridiculous - isn’t anyone embarrassed to be there? They should be), I thought I’d look around and see what else is out there.
1)The NYPost talks about Joe the Plumber today. It calls Obama’s “economic plan” a wealth redistribution scheme. [...]

Jackson - Obama Foreign Policy includes Apologies and less “Jewish clout” »

The Rev. must be out of the doghouse for his “nutty” remarks about Obama’s, er uh, nuts. The NYPost published an interview today between Amir Taheri and Jesse Jackson. Jackson is in France, at a “World Policy Forum,” where he spoke about the foreign policies he feels an Obama administration would pursue.
According [...]

(UPDATED) A Dangerous Mixture of Lies and Omissions: Obama, Ayers, Wright and Farrakhan »

[This essay was originally published in June and titled The Birth of Whitey: Black Liberation Theology and The Nation of Islam. This piece was written by Medusa and Bud White]

The recent, reluctantly released papers from Obama’s time as head at the Chicago Annenberg Challenge (CAC) and his time on the board of the Woods Fund [...]

Nuts »

That’s the topic for today. Nuts. This election season seems rife with them, but I will focus on only four for today.
First up, we have ACORN. Yes, ACORN has been in the news a good bit recently. Seems the organization Obama has paid $800,000 to register voters has been, um, shall [...]

Iceland broke; Iranians’ nuke aid; Magic Obama, Derty Pouiiy’s bro; Racism x2 & Racism as Strategy »

1) Iceland considers bankruptcy. From the International Herald Tribune:

People go bankrupt all the time. Companies do, too. But countries?
Iceland was on the verge of doing exactly that on Thursday as the government shut down the stock market and seized control of its last major independent bank. That brought trading in the country’s currency to a [...]

Racism, Indianapolis’ 105% voter registration, Press love gets no love but keeps on lovin’, Dems see landslide, NM voter rolls, economic fear and loathing, Derty Pouiiy - donor of a type, The Australian calls candidates & US press on inattention to reality »

1) Now, for your morning racism, from the So Predictable it’s a Snore Department,” the NY Observer says black Congressmen find Palin’s talk racist.
As the McCain campaign ratchets up the intensity of its attacks on Barack Obama, some black elected officials are calling the tactics desperate, unseemly and racist.
“They are trying to throw [...]

it isn’t coincidence…there is a pattern »

But sadly, too many people choose to ignore it, or accept it, or just call you a racist for noticing it. But the pattern is there. It begins like this:
Obama has a friend or associate that is questionable.
Video or articles surface of Obama thanking them, supporting them, writing a blurb for their book, organizing events [...]

Douglass K. Daniel of the AP Is Not a Journalist [UPDATE: Sarah Palin Responds] »

[UPDATE] Sarah Palin responds to race baiting AP reporter Douglass K. Daniel::
“The Associated Press is wrong,” Palin said. “The comments are about an association that has been known but hasn’t been talked about, and I think it’s fair to talk about where Barack Obama kicked off his political career, in the guy’s living room.”
========================================
Douglass K. [...]

Black Media Ads Criticize Obama and DNC for Ignoring Black Voters and Their Media Outlets »

Media Plays the Race Card Because They’re Too Lazy to Look Further »

Bumped up its original publication date of September 25th by SusanUnPC because it’s important to revisit LisaB’s important reporting — always highly objective and rational — on the employment of the “race card.” LisaB’s thoughtful observations are critically important to consider.

As this campaign begins its way-too-slow descent to November, I’m seeing more and more [...]
