It seems these days that anyone who disagrees with Obama is a racist. That was a campaign tactic that's now been transferred to his administration. Really, what is a racist. I prefer to associate with whites in general more than with blacks---therefore, I'm racist. Does it not matter that I have more in common with them, guess not--I'm racist. Tried to speak to some Mexicans the other day at the store, suppose they couldn't understand me, so I went on with my shopping--I'm racist. I support legal immigration, not illegal immigration--I'm racist. I think most of Obama's policies are foolish--I'm racist. So what is a racist? Took the time to look it up--says a racist is someone who has an unreasoning dislike for someone of another race. Gosh, that lets me off the hook, I have reasons for my dislikes. I dislike some Arabs because they want to kill me so I guess that one is ok. I dislike some Mexicans because they jumped the fence so that one is ok. I dislike some blacks because they feel I owe them something guess that one is ok. And finally, I dislike liberals, because I simply cannot tolerate fools, guess that one is ok, too. Gee, maybe I'm not racist.
Americans are downright afraid to be called racists. I attribute this fear to the foisting upon us the concept of white guilt.
ReplyDeleteI hang around with people with whom I have a lot in common. So what? Hanging around with those of common ground is human nature.
Hell, I do know a few blacks who will not even speak to white people.
Yep, they are trying really hard to have us white folks painted in the racist corner. It's not working very well though. All for political gain. That didn't work so well in November did it? No it didn't.
ReplyDeleteHave a terrific day. :)
I've seen conservative use the same logic to demonize those of us that speak against the homosexual movement.
