The Media's Selective Race Outrage
For over a year, the liberal media recited "the Tea Party is racist". They did so for hours on end without any clear proof. What do I mean by proof? Knowing this bunch as we do, had there been video of one clearly racist sign at a Tea Party, we'd be seeing that video as often as we did that of Rodney King. It would be their smoking gun. They could single-handedly discredit the Tea Party and possibly have salvaged the midterm elections for the left.
Alas, there was no proof, but when video released showed progressives desirous of putting the black Supreme Court justice back in his place (either in the fields or swinging from a tree), the networks didn't touch it.

Liberals...keeping racism alive

Racists

Racism is alive and well in liberal-land. I'll not forget a "liberal" colleague of mine years ago. Every day, I mean every day, this fellow would arrive spouting the liberal line---then follow it with a racist, sexist, anti-gay or anti-semitic joke. No matter how many people told him that they didn't want to hear him, he wouldn't stop.This memory is high on my long list of reasons to despise the hypocrisy of the left. It disgusts me.
NEVER,NEVER trust a "liberal" (progressive)
A matter of perspective...

We assume that there is a point where humans have some level of conscience, dignity, decency and perhaps simple compassion...
It is becoming clearer by the day that liberals do not possess any of that...
Truly sad, when you realize that when you walk into any room somewhere between a third and a half of those present are liberals...
John Galt may have been right...

Well the demo-rats, don't have a power base, unless they have enough people that have been indocrinated or they are un-educated. The whole purpose of liberaalism, is to maintain a permnament underclass to serve them ( I guess basically since they can't own slaves anymore).
'Reparations'
Submitted by Slyrr on Thu, 02/10/2011 - 6:59pm.
And I hear that Dead-Fish Emmanual is saying he's all for giving 'reparations' to blacks.
I guarantee Sharpton and all the other race-baiting hucksters out there will turn it down, even if offered. Here's a neat game to play with our liberal pro-reparation friends.
Get 2 envelopes. In one, put a slip of paper that reads, 'Will ask for an amount so outrageous they know they'll never get it'. In the other, put a slip of paper that says, 'Pretend to be outraged, then say it's an insult to put a dollar amount on the suffering of black people'.
Then ask a pro-reparations person: 'OK let's say I'm President. And I say to you, look reprations guy. I'm tired of arguing with you and so is everyone else. So here's a piece of paper. You write down a final dollar amount for reparations, and we'll give it to you. We'll sign out a check right now for one lump sum and put it right in your hands. But once you have that check, you're done. The reparations movement has to disband forever, shut up forever and go away and publically declare that all black people everywhere have been paid in full for slavery in this country. Now - how much do you want?'
I guarantee - the liberal reparations guy will respond in a manner that conforms exactly to one of those two slips of paper. Then hand reparations guy the appropriate envelope, and say 'You sir, will NEVER be happy.'
Why is this? Because black people and liberal whites will never give this up as an issue. It gives them too much power. If they didn't have America's slave past as an issue to use in elections and other social reformation garbage, then they'd have nothing - literally NOTHING - to campaign on. Al Sharpton and Jackson would have to disband and lose all their walkin' round money.
Liberals and reparationists have had a never-ending blank check to demand with this issue. So they'll never stop. Never. And the dirty secret is they don't WANT reparations. If they got them, they'd lose all their power. And what do they want anyway? Land? What land? Where? Will the government have to seperate, say, California and give that to blacks and let them call it 'Ebonia' or somthing? Money? How much? They won't say - and they get mad when you ask them because they're scared to death of losing the 'blank' check.
It's no use trying to appease them. No matter what they get, it's never enough.
We already are paying

The liberal media does selective editing to further their agenda which is to continue to marginalize and stereotype conservatives. This may be why the media did not cover this story as well. This story certainly does not serve their agenda.
