Palin's terrorist Obama remarks.. racist?

Quote:
WASHINGTON (AP) - By claiming that Democrat Barack Obama is "palling around with terrorists" and doesn't see the U.S. like other Americans, vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin targeted key goals for a faltering campaign.

And though she may have scored a political hit each time, her attack was unsubstantiated and carried a racially tinged subtext that John McCain himself may come to regret.
Analysis: Palin's words carry racial tinge


Good to see the AP is sticking to the Obama plan...

That will be a refreshing change from all the bogus sexism charges.

Racist? not really, STUPID is a much more appropriate word; and with that word we can pretty much sum up anything she says.

Re: Palin's terrorist Obama remarks.. racist?

So this white American guy, William Ayers. Does Palin think he sees the US the way other Americans do?

I'm so glad we're finally discovering with this campaign just how hypersensitive Americans are about race. Everybody acts like being black must be the most terrible thing in the world and so blacks must be militantly defended from the slightest alleged offense.

Now let's not forget the unrefuted Ali Abunimah and Mary Mitchell disclaimers:

“I first met Democratic presidential hopeful Senator Barack Obama almost ten years ago when, as my representative in the Illinois state senate, he came to speak at the University of Chicago. He impressed me as progressive, intelligent and charismatic. I distinctly remember thinking 'if only a man of this calibre could become president one day.'“…
…“He is merely doing what he thinks is necessary to get elected and he will continue doing it as long as it keeps him in power.” (How Barack Obama learned to love Israel
Ali Abunimah, The Electronic Intifada, 4 March 2007)
ei: How Barack Obama learned to love Israel

Fight the Smears: Search results: Ali Abunimah

"Nation of Islam Minister Louis Farrakhan said that presidential candidate Barack Obama is the 'hope of the entire world' that the U.S. will change for the better."
Farrakhan Praises Obama as 'Hope of Entire World' - FOXNews.com Elections

Fight the Smears: Search results: Louis Farrakhan

"When Sen. Barack Obama 'rejected' and 'denounced' the support of Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan during the MSNBC debate last week, it wasn't his finest hour.

Fortunately for Obama, most black people understand the game.

Obama should have found a way to escape Russert's trap without denigrating Farrakhan's legacy.

But, like I said, we understand." (BY MARY MITCHELL Sun-Times Columnist)
Why Obama 'denounced' Farrakhan :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: Mary Mitchell

Fight the Smears: Search results: Mary Mitchell

There was no smear:

Most black people are bad, and Barrack Obama is a liar.

*****

The Obama supporters want us to forget who said that Al Quacka was "playing by the rules of warfare," and they certainly want us to forget all those debates where they defended the notion that terrorism was simply a legal tactic.

"What is incorrect about this statement you highlighted: 'Terrorism is not an enemy but a technique of warfare'?"
http://www.debatepolitics.com/archiv...tml#post576889 (Terrorists or not terrorists?)

Anyone can take the law into their own hands, only "liberals" and their buddies turn it into a legal tactic when they feel unjustly treated, no wonder they wanted to keep Al Quacka's ally terrorist sponsor Saddam in power and are not upset by the Obama Ayers connection:

Quote:
Al Quaeda or Al Quacka is just a name that can change in a breath, and that name can be just as invisible as a breath, but some of us that are not blinded by prejudice can see where such breath resides:

“Again we say that when someone feels that he is unjustly treated, and no one is repulsing or stopping the injustice inflicted on him, he personally seeks ways and means for lifting that justice. Of course, not everyone is capable of finding the best way for lifting the injustice inflicted on him. People resort to what they think is the best way according to their own ideas, and they are not all capable of reaching out for what is beyond what is available to arrive to the best idea or means.
To find the best way, after having found their way to God and His rights, those who are inflicted by injustice need not to be isolated from their natural milieu, or be ignored deliberately, or as a result of mis-appreciation, by the officials in this milieu. They should, rather, be reassured and helped to save themselves, and their surroundings. “ (Saddam Hussein Shabban 13, 1422 H. October 29, 2001.)

Actually I suspect so many “liberals” agree with Saddam about “own ideas“ of justice through terror, because of what is said and not said, and I feel it may be a “liberal” offshoot of the “liberal“ moral rot of “by any means necessary.” I also believe Judicial Activism is also an offshoot of “liberal” justification for tyranny.
“Rape is not an enemy but a technique of warfare -- political intimidation through the selective breeding of unarmed non-combatants.” (Zbigview Brznutski, Obama supporter)

So being tolerant means you can't criticize anyone?

Tolerance is wanting to ban gay marriage. Intolerance is not caring about whether you marry a woman or your belly button lint.
