What are people supposed to think if someone says ‘I have got an answer, we have an enemy’? There it was the Jews. Here it will be the illegal
immigrants and the blacks.
I find this to be a very good article, but I can't help but point out the glaring
IF in the above sentence. Hitler made no pretense that he
was going after the Jews. Obviously after he was already in power and had gained popularity -- I'm generalizing here.
However, right now this country is dividing between Democrats and Republicans.
Frankly, I think that any person trying to make this about race is simply trying to take the attention away from Wsshington... away from the
politicians.... and TRYING to focus it on the people....which frankly it's not.
People are outspoken about Obama mainly because he led such an extremely emotional campaign, that as people are disappointed, they are reacting
emotionally. Which always creates a more intense situation.
Further, as many people are calling for Pelosi to be ousted, and she's as white as they come. And I have seen not one person claim it's because
she's a woman...also considered a minority in this country.
I would just be leary of anyone, especially anyone influential, that tries to make this a racist movement. To me, it is most obviously a partisan
issue as all Democrats are being villified and all Republicans are being called right-wing nutjobs. You don't have to be a certain color to be crazy
in this country.
If the polls are accurate it is not the Republicans but the right-wing Republicans, the crazed Republicans, who will sweep the next
election.”
Also, this sentence really bothered me. Notice how he added in the word "crazed". The last election that Republicans won was Scott Brown and Chris
Christie. Neither one of those men are known to be outspoken or crazed. If Limbaugh had won and/or Beck.....I could see his point. But frankly, it
makes me wonder if HE has an agenda for painting the would-be victors "crazed".
