-GUEST POST: Racism, Liberals, and the Dysfunctional Media

If you find yourself disagreeing with President Obama, or any liberal policy for that matter, then you are a racist. Whether you know it or not, you are unconsciously a racist. That is what I learned today from a woman who called on the Ed Shultz show 99.9 FM. She stated that “Anyone who disagrees with a public option, foreign policy, or don’t want their children listen to President Obama’s speech to students is a racist…they can not hide beneath kind words, they may not know it, but they are racist.”

Why does that make a person a racist? Is it sole because they disagree with a minorities view? Minorities always find a way to shut down any opposing view: they pull the race card. At the beginning of Barack Obama’s campaign for the presidency I was swayed by then Senator Obama’s charismatic speeches. Then as I did more research into his policies, I found many policies and plans he would enact if elected that I did not agree with. Over the course of the campaign I found myself being called a racist because I would not vote for Obama. I would engage initially in a friendly debate and ask “Why do you support Senator Obama?” Many responses I received included “He represents change” or “He is such a cool guy.” When I attempted to engage in a debate about his policies and revealed that I disagreed with them, I was immediately accused of being a racist. I disagree with the majority of President Obama’s policies, but I am not a racist. The only race I see is the Human race. A racist would vote for an individual sole on race…as many of the individuals who voted for Senator Obama did. There was a 90% increase in minority voters from the previous election to this one. To them, I am a racist because I disagreed with his policies and the direction he would take our country ….Interesting.

Another statement that drives me crazy that liberals love to use is “How could you not support a public option, or welfare, don’t you want to help out your fellow Americans.” Well of course I want to help out fellow Americans. Anyone who reaches into his own pocket to help out a fellow citizen should be applauded. However it if I was to reach into the pocket of a neighbor and take money to give to the homeless man down the street, I would be arrested for theft. That is essentially what the government is doing and will do with programs such as welfare and a public option.

-Democrats ban saying virutally anything negative about President Obama

Democratic House Members decide to put the kibosh on freedom of speech...

From Politico:

House Rules Committee Chairwoman Louise Slaughter (D-NY) has released a helpful, updated primer for members regarding their conduct on the floor and in committees.

Especially useful: The section on how to properly insult the executive branch in the in the chamber.

Under section 370 of the House Rules and Manual it has been held that a Member could:

• refer to the government as “something hated, something oppressive.”
• refer to the President as “using legislative or judicial pork.”
• refer to a Presidential message as a “disgrace to the country.”
• refer to unnamed officials as “our half-baked nitwits handling foreign affairs.”

Likewise, it has been held that a member could not:
• call the President a “liar.”
• call the President a “hypocrite.”
• describe the President’s veto of a bill as “cowardly.”
• charge that the President has been “intellectually dishonest.”
• refer to the President as “giving aid and comfort to the enemy.”
• refer to alleged “sexual misconduct on the President’s part.”
