I don't know how people come up with this stuff. First they say calling Obama "skinny" is a code word for "black." Now, they say "socialist" is.
Last time I checked, neither word was a code for "black." All calling Obama "skinny" meant is that, in a nation where the majority is overweight or obese, he stands out because he's, well, skinny. Socialist is a bit more negative, though: a socialist is a communist is an anti-capitalist. Calling Obama socialist is naming his policies, not his color, despite the examples cited in the Diuguid piece.
I hate to say it, but each and every one of the black activists named in that piece were socialist, to some extent; some were downright communist. Calling them socialist had nothing to do with their color, nor their desire for equality, but had everything to do with their "from each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs" politics.

Okay, we now are being told in a round about way, we need to watch what words we say because all White People use code words. If that isn't "The Pot......". Oh never mind. I wonder if black activist would point the finger back at themselves and some the code words they use against Whites as being rasist. I don't think so, everything is a double standard if you against Obama.
ReplyDeleteWell, I feel offend everytime Obama wears a white shirt or any of color because there is a code being stated against whites. Hey, I can play his game too.
When will the media wake-up and smell what is being dealt to the people. I guess not until their right to report a story the way they want too, but must report it the way the Obama mandate dictates them too. Sorry, I just said a code word I guess????
It always offends me to be called racist. I don't care what color someone is. I care about what they believe and how they behave. I've met white people that are far more ignorant and low character than the most racist white person believes that other races are.
ReplyDeleteI only have to look at people like Condoleeza Rice, Walter E. Williams, Thomas Sowell, and, yes, Barack Obama, to see the illustration of why the racists are wrong in their beliefs.
And I only have to look at those like John Murtha, Joe Biden, Robert Byrd, and Teddy Kennedy to be proved right about the fact that it's character, not race, that makes individuals repellant, and justifies me in being an equal opportunity misanthrope.
