Thus spake Zarathustra Jimmy Carter: “I think an overwhelming portion of the intensely demonstrated animosity toward President Barack Obama is based on the fact that he is a black man, that he’s African-American…” yada yada yada…the drone of the Liberal elite. It seems anyone who disagrees with Obama is a racist. Evidently just looking at the president the “wrong way” can produce accusations of racist thought. Liberals will point out the deeper meaning behind an otherwise innocent turn of phrase. Thus when Senator Wilson shouted out that Obama was a liar he is now being locked in with the racist label. What Wilson did was ill-mannered at worst. Was there racism behind his outburst? Who knows. I do know this though– these Libs cannot read minds; they do not know what someone is thinking when it comes to race. But I think we know what’s really behind such accusations. Self-righteous Liberals, especially the kind represented by the finger-pointing former President, are merely trying to cover up their own racist views (now I’m going to read minds). By flinging out the racist epitaph at every turn, at every phrase and word, they ease their own racist conscience. And where does that racist conscience reside? Deep…deep down there in the R-complex. Maybe even a couple of levels above that. They have to struggle everyday to keep it in its hidden place. Every time a racist thought bubbles up like yellow pus in their grey matter they must accuse someone else of racism. Not only are race-bating Libs keeping society from looking beyond race, they are defiling language. See War of Words
