The impulse among old-line Stevensonian leadership to accuse other people of racism at the drop of a hat, categorically condemning millions of white voters, will do nothing to bring voters of all ethnicities together to support progressive politics. This is a fundamental failure of this faction within the Democratic Party and is why we consistently lose national elections.”

Like it or not, Howard Dean has just made the claim that if you are white, you are A) racist and B) Republican, your actual acts and deeds in this world not withstanding. The only way to be relieved of this taint is to vote Obama. Not even Democrat – you must vote for Obama. If Obama should fail at the polls, then all “white” Americans stand indicted for racism because that is the only way he can fail and the only reason for failing to vote for The Precious is you’re just a racist white Republican at heart.

Can’t argue with that.

Are you calling it whining to point out when the chairman of one political party makes inaccurate insinuations about the other?

I’ll try to remember this comment next time any Democrat faults a Republican for criticizing him. By your standards, Jimmy, Obama is real angry whiner as this latest news item shows.

Now, we know your true colors, Jimmy, you really don’t like Barack Obama. Glad we both agree that the presumptive Democratic nominee is a whiner.

NObama doesn’t believe in Change we can believe in…and standing up for truth against power but believes in whatever will get him elected and whatever position will get him elected…he is the Yes You Can Candidate who will tell you Yes if that is what you want to hear and goes silent against racist comments and homophobia (i.e. his homophobic Ministers that campaigned for him)

Dean is a loud mouthed moron in a party that believes in divisions rather then “We are all Americans”

Nothing amazes me with NObama and his crowd..he has no values (any man that throws his own Grandmother under the bus as he did with his comments on racism in one breath and then claim she is one of the two people he goes to for advice (the other being Michelle Obama) is a slime bucket in my book.

They put black and Latino students into tougher colleges and perpetuate higher dropout rates (as proven by UCLA Prof. Richard Sander’s study: http://www.law.ucla.edu/sander/Systemic/SA.htm).

And they systematically deny Asians into colleges which they deserve to go into, because their high numbers of success have to be diminished so that undeserving people of other races can make it into college.

I’m trying to figure out exactly which minority he fits into?

Below-average IQ’s

According to his own logic he is then a very dumb person, couldn’t even choose the right party.

Remember slavery? followed by Jim Crow? Both defended by which party? And now, the twentieth centure versions: welfare programs and conspiracy theories to keep blacks dependent (on Democrat politicians), and racial quota programs to keep everyone else (not just whites) alienated from blacks.

The Dems thrive on keeping blacks separated from whites.

They not only thrive on it, their political aspirations absolutely depend on it. I forget the exact number, but if Republicans were able to attract something like just 30-40% of the black vote on a regular basis, Democrats would become a permanent minority.

The libs (and, yes, a few conservatives) are doing their best do divide this country into warring factions. When the job is done (not too long from now) it will be entertaining to watch them try to govern. We’ll need something to laugh at as the country goes down the tubes.
