Bob has visions of racism
August 26th, 2008 | by admin |Bob Herbert in the New York Times sees bigotry all around him. Read it here.
Is race a factor in the coming election? Obama brings it up on a regular basis. His supporters bring it up on a regular basis. Bob Herbert also brings it up on a regular basis.
Why isn’t Obama leading by a landslide? With the economy weak and energy prices soaring, Obama’s supporters can’t understand why Obama isn’t a shoe in. It must be secret racism on the part of whites they assume.
What make Herbert think that dissatisfaction with the current state of affairs should translate into support for Obama? An awful lot of people think Obama would make things even worse. The kind of Marxist “change” Obama is looking for certainly doesn’t appeal to anyone who believes in personal liberty.
Bob seems to think we should follow his guy into economic hell just because he’s black.
Herbert even points out that 57% of of the population think some people might want to hurt Obama and they sometimes “fear for his safety”. Proof positive for Herbert.
Every day the new media tells us how racist Americans are. It amazing such a small percentage of the population believes them.
Herbert is determined to see racism everywhere he goes. Do some people hate Obama because of his race? Of course. I’d guess a lot higher percentage hate McCain because of his. Does this make Herbert ashamed of Obama supporters? Obama himself spent twenty years screaming his racial hatred of whites. Doesn’t that make him a racist?
Maybe Bob doesn’t know anyone in his ‘community’ who hates John McCain because he’s white. Do you believe that? Come on Bob, tell the truth.
