Even Andrea Mitchell has her Dog-whistle Limit

Apparently "lazy" = "black" because "black" = "lazy"

Now we all know Obama looks black and in front of the right audience he will go out of his way and worldly travels to sound black.

How long will DU tolerate these racist dog whistles?

Why are liberals the only ones that hear those whistles?  :???:
Seems odd.
Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

Exactly.  If they are the only ones that can hear racist dog whistles, what does that make them? . . . :fuelfire:
