Tavis Smiley: 2012 Will Be "The Most Racist" Election Ever
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2011/04/26/tavis_smiley_2012_will_be_the_most_racist_election_ever.html
Here goes the race card game crap again.

Tavis Smiley is a jackass. Next time I want a worthless opinion from a race-baiting fool, I'll as Jesse Jackson. At least he has name recognition.
-
Tavis Smiley is full of hate.

whoppi goldberg has declared (s)he is now playing the race card.
"I'm Playing The Damn Card Now"

He certainly hopes so...even if he has to become a self-fulfilling prophet.
Of course this will backfire. You can't claim that a nation that elected Obama by popular vote is racist and those suggestions will piss off independents even more. They're mad at Obama's performance not his skin and they won't be intimidated into forgetting that when it costs twice as much to drive to a job that might be laid-off at any time.

...and she's still hoping someone will pull "The Old Maid" card from her hand.
You may have to be old as dirt to get that one.
Is there such a card as the "Ugly Card"? She may have a fist full of those.

I think she meant "Still."

I'm not even 40 yet, and I got it. Wasn't it a game that Atari put out, way back when? :confused: :-)

It was a card game. You didn't want to get left holding the "Old Maid".

Racists are terrible people and ones I despise.
But you know what's almost as bad as racists? People that whip out that race card every nanosecond when it's not warranted. It's pathetic and extremely dishonest. And even worse, is it diminishes the acts of REAL racism when it occurs. It's the boy who cried wolf syndrome. When someone cries "racism!" hundreds of times in a row when there is none no one is going to believe them when there actually IS a case of racism.
I knew the race card was going to be played a lot when Obama was elected. I just didn't think it would be this bad.

How about we make a point? Cain/West 2012.

I could pull the lever for that one. No matter who's on which side of the ticket.

People who whip out that race card, by definition, practice racism. Invariably, the hue and the cry that goes up by the Sharptons and the Jacksons for perceived injustices favor those same injustices being exhibited toward the other group.
Sharpton, in particular, is an angry man. He carries a chip on his shoulder, just daring Whitey to come along and knock it off. He is nothing more than a vintage 1960's militant black man who is convinced that Whitey must give up what he's earned to give to blacks just because he's angry.
