Well, yet one more Obama news guy (surprise!), who is an Obama sycophant named Lewis Diuguid (ironically rronounced Do Good), has weighed in with the infamous
Race Card.
It is now decreed that calling Barack Obama’s plans “Socialist” is Racist. He said it’s a racist “Code Word”.
No kidding. You can’t make this shit up.
McCain and Palin should be ”Ashamed of themselves”. In other words: Just shut up Or You are Gonna Get The Race Card!
Let’s see, now. At this point, the only “racist” thing left for McCain and Palin to do is: Inhale and Exhale.
Inhaling and exhaling is racist. Stop this right now all you people who don’t support Comrade Obama!
So, calling someone’s platform Socialist is racist. Who knew??????
All righty then.
I started to surf the net to find out who the prominent Socialists were. You know, so I could point out the black ones. I tossed in Marxist and Communist, etc., just to preempt the next Race Card. After all, they are all part of Barack Obama’s endorsement package these days. Let’s face it. They were all the same anti-Democracy theories, one laughingly “improving” on the other.
It all started with the French, you know.
Let’s see, there’s this guy Henri de Saint-Simon. He was this French Utopian Socialist Thinker. Here he is. Ugly as hell but looking kind of…well…white.
Ok maybe they weren’t referring to him. How about that guy Pierre-Joseph Proudhon. Socialist philosopher and anarchist. His most notable idea: Property is theft. Here he is:
Dang if Proudhon doesn’t look like just another crazy white guy to me. Ok, maybe they weren’t referring to him. Because he’s definitely Not. Black.
Let’s see…….ok here’s a guy from Wales named Robert Owen. He was one of the founders of Socialism. Here he is. Dang he’s a nutty white guy too! Not. Black.
Scratching my head here….. Gosh, even the great Romantic Poet Yeats was a Socialist. But he was white too.
Ok Ok, Gotta stick Karl in here because, besides bouncing off the walls, he bounced off of Owen’s Utopia idea. Karl Marx, author of the Communist Manifesto. Hereeeeeeeeeee’ssssss Karllllllll, looking like he carries fleas. Karl was definitely Not. Black
There’s Fredrick Engels. Hey, maybe he wasn’t white. Ooops. He was. Seriously Not. Black.
Ok here’s Benito Mussolini the black Italian nutcase. Ooops, wrong again! Not. Black.
Ok, Ok, I’m not going to give up. I have just GOT to PROVE that calling someone a Socialist is Racist.
I know! How about Stalin!
Dang! White! Good lookin’! But definitely Not. Black.
Ok let’s reach a little. Um ….OH! I know! How about Lenin!??
Aw Geeze, White again!
I can’t find a single famous black Socialist! Dang!
I know Que, worshipped by so many of Obama’s supporters, is definitely not black. See? Here he is, looking all macho on his horse. Not. black.
Now I know that Chairman Mao wasn’t black and North Korea’s Dear Leader isn’t black either. Neither is Fidel Castro. Definitely. Not. Black.
Adolf was Not. Black. Although he was certainly charismatic wasn’t he?
So, could somebody please tell me how it is that calling Barack Obama a Socialist is a Racist thing to say? I’ll wait…….
Thanks!
Congratulations, Mr. Diuguid!!!! You win the Ludicrous Race Card of the Week Award! I mean don’t let the fact that Barack has been endorsed by the previously dead American Socialst, Marxist/Leninist and Communist parties stop you from pulling that old card, ya hear????
I mean, just because he wants to redistribute wealth and ran in 1996 on the Marxist AKA “New Party” ticket is no darned good reason to call him a Socialist either, right? Just because millions of immigrants came here to the USA to get away from most of the guys mentioned above is no reason to be concerned, right?
Okay in keeping with the title of the post I will say I’m happy we are moving toward a world where these things will someday not matter. The Democrats are officially the first major party to nominate an African American for POTUS and this will go down in the history books for that reason! Congrats to African Americans, the Democratic Party and all Americans for that! Hopefully we will soon be at a point where this becomes so commonplace it is a non-issue. A nation that values it’s people based on their character and their contributions not their race, religion or gender.
Now on to the OTHER reasons this election cycle will go down in history some of which are not nearly as noble or celebratory. What am I talking about you might be asking?
This election cycle will definitely go down in the history books as the year when the Democrats moved as far away from the concept of democracy as they possibly could without actually changing the party name to Kommies for Amerrikka! The tactics used in this primary season were straight from the GOP playbook with one major exception.
The GOP has a rule: Never use dirty tactics against other Republicans. Against the other side it is expected, even encouraged. By all means use every dirty, underhanded, manipulative and fear-maongering tactic at your disposal against the “enemy” whether they be Dems or Independants, Libertarians or The Green Party. Mission seek and destroy! But never, nver, ever use those tactics to attack a fellow Republican!
Race-bating including portraying the only Two-Term Democratic President in the last 40 years and someone who has done more for racial equality and the black community than The One ever has or will as a racist. This tactic was used, falsley, against Bill and Hillary Clinton and anyone who supported either one of them or anyone who did not support Barrack Obama. The smearing of good Democrats with proven records of fighting good causes and striving for equality and a better life for all Americans was done not by Republicans as we are used to but by our fellow Democrats who used this as a club to beat the competition with.
All through the primaries we were deluged with Clinton hate and smears against the former Clinton Administration all the while being told that it was Hillary and Bill who were “smearing and fear-mongering”. They went on and on about things like the supposed “tarnishing” of the party by the Monica scandal and the “anything to win” tactics they accused the Clinton campaign of all the while trying very hard to smear and erase all the truly good things that were accomplished in the 90′s.
You know things like eliminating a huge deficit and leaving an actual surplus. That in itself was an unprecedented achievement. Things like improvements to our educational system, programs for families with young children and the pride we felt about our reputation in the world.
I could go on for quite a while on the things that the Clinton Administration did for our country. Things that sadly have been squandered and left by the side of the road like unwanted trash by the current administration. People had jobs, were able to pay their bills and buy homes.
Back to the race baiting here’s the real kicker. No matter what criticism was made about Obama it was all immediately branded as racist. He’s inexperienced – Racist, He’s an elitist – Racist, Tire gages won’t solve the energy crisis and bring down gas prices – Racist, not qualified – Racist, Rezco, Wright, Farrakkan, Auchi – all Racist claims according to camp Obama. FISA, Cheney’s Energy bill and his stance on the Born Alive Act – Racist. In fact by now you should be able to see a pattern here.
According to the Obama camp and the ”powers that be” (DNC Leadership) any and all criticism of The One is deemed Racist and politicly incorrect regardless of whether or not it’s true. Got it? He’s PERFECT! Anyone who says otherwise is… you guessed it, racist. Did you get the memo folks?
From: DNC
To: Voters
There is no reason to vote against or refuse to support Obama that is not motivated by racism and bigotry. End of story. This is the official party line and is the ONLY sanctioned response. Please keep in mind that we are the PROGRESSIVE party and as such NO DISSENT will be tolerated! Party members choosing to ignore this edict will be subject to threats, intimidation and possibly the stripping of credentials as well as expulsion from the party.
Sincerely,
Howie, Nancy, Harry and Donna

Okay, okay! So it’s not a real memo but it could very well have been and it’s definitely been implied.
Meanwhile it was never said but always understood that these same rules did not apply to the distinguished Senator from New York. In fact it was open season on Hillary Clinton, former President Clinton and the legacy left by his administration. Camp Obama tried with all their might to re-write the hisory of the 90′s as a hard and terrible time fraught with shame, scandal and poverty.
Well folks as a person who was actually old enough to be paying my own bills in the 90′s I can tell you that NONE of that was true. There were plenty of jobs, the banks were not going under every other day, people could afford to purchase homes for their families and even afford to send those families to college. Our country was actually respected as a leader in Democracy and Diplomacy. Something Obama has no clue about.
That’s why it hasn’t stuck. Try as they might to paint the Clintons with a terrible legacy of a failed economy and national history the facts speak otherwise. LOUDLY!
Here’s is another reason this will go down in the history books. This is the first election to my knowledge where Democrats not only attacked fellow Dems but decreed any and all dissent must be squashed by any means necessary. Long time Democratic websites and blogs began ceremoniously kicking out members who expressed displeasure with the candidate de’ jour. Blogs were spam bombed in coordinated attacks that the attackers actually bragged about on their own sites.
Even the normal political attack ads that we typicaly see every election year have been not just scrutinized but demonized and even now camp Obama is threatening legal action against the donors of a 527 group for making an ad that frankly, tells the truth about The One’s close relationship with one William Ayers. (Remember Obama said he was just some guy in his neighborhood?) In fact Obama’s first political campaign was launched from the very same William Ayers’ home in Chicago!
That’s right he wants to put the people who made the ad and those who contributed money to the group behind bars for daring to speak against The One, for speaking the truth!
Then apparently they sent a second letter actually threatening legal action against the stations airing the ad, the group who made it and the donors who contributed. I’m trying to find the link to the second letter. I should know to save these things! If anyone else has a link please post it and I’ll add it in.
My how progressive and liberal of the Obama people! How Democratic! I’m so glad they believe in free speech and all!
Thanks to Obamabi.com for the video.
Seriously folks these people are far worse than even the Republicans. Democrats do not quell dissent! They do not quash free speech and they do not use coercion, threats and propaganda techniques to control and distort messages!
At least REAL Democrats don’t! Obamacrats? Well that’s another story! These people have more in common with Hitler and Stalin than FDR or JFK. They would never have tried to shut people up from their own party and they never would have stood for treating other people, much less Democrats, with anything less than the respect any American deserves!
Shame on Barrack Obama and his followers for this will surely go down in the history books as the time when our party lost it’s way and turned to facism rather than using actual principals, facts and decency to argue their case!
There’s always more but I’m going to stop for now.
We live in a great country where We The People are personally responsible for keeping watch over our rights.
The meeting of the Rules & By-Laws Committee that took place on May 31, 2008 was not only flawed and un-democratic it directly flies in the face of what it is to be an American Citizen and a Democrat!
As Americans, Democrats and Patriots we must fight to quell those factions of our party who subvert and pervert the true democratic process that our country was founded upon!
In short:
THERE CAN BE NO UNITY WITHOUT FAIR REFLECTION!
ONE PERSON, ONE VOTE!
EVERY VOTE COUNTS!
WE THE PEOPLE DOES NOT MEAN WE THE ONES WHO DECIDE AS WE SEE FIT!
IT MEANS EXACTLY WHAT IT SAYS!
WE THE PEOPLE HAVE VOTED AND WE THE PEOPLE CHOSE WISLEY! WE CHOSE AND THE RBC DECIDED TO COUNT THE VOTES NOT AS THEY WERE CAST BUT AS THEY CHOSE TO COUNT THEM!
FAIR REFLECTION MEANS COUNT EACH VOTE AND COUNT IT AS IT WAS CAST TO REFLECT THE INTENT OF THE VOTER!
DENVER HERE WE COME! PUMAS DEFEND JUSTICE AND DEMOCRACY! DO NOT ALLOW THIS FRAUDULENT DNC TO DECIDE YOUR VOTE DOESN'T COUNT.
BARRACK, HOWARD, NANCY, HARRY, DONNA GUESS WHO'S COMING TO DENVER?
