Do you really Believe Sarah Palin is Racist?

Anger Alert Level: 3 (Elevated)

Someone needs to explain to me how Gov. Sarah Palin's comment on Saturday about Sen. Obama's associations with known terrorist turned college professor (lateral move) William Ayers: "Our opponent ... is someone who sees America, it seems, as being so imperfect, imperfect enough, that he's palling around with terrorists who would target their own country," is "a racially tinged subtext" as AP "journalist" Douglass Daniel states in this article:

You know I get that the SCUM (new CU blogword, So-Called Unbiased Media) talking point is that this when Obama was 8 years old, but the deeper you get into this the less true that is.

We'll set that aside for now,
All Palin is talking about is specifically people that would turn on their own country. For Palin to have slighted a whole race, or all races, as Dumbass Dougie asserts here, he has to believe that all minorities (or whoever he thinks Palin is slighting here) are ready to "target their own country." All this is yet another example of a SCUM journalist that has been taught that Sarah Palin is a religious republican, all republicans and religous people are racist, therefore Sarah Palin must be a racist in everything she said.

Furthermore, we have heard from some Democrat Congresspeople..

from Brit Hume http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,434747,00.html:

[Representative] Yvette Clark was critical of Sarah Palin's repeated appeals to "Joe Six-Pack" and "hockey moms." "Who exactly is Joe Six-Pack and who are these hockey moms?... Is that supposed to be terminology that is of common ground to all Americans? I don't find that. It leaves a lot of people out," Clark said.

Congressman Gregory Meeks says in The New York Observer, "They are trying to throw out these codes. He's 'not one of us?' That's racial. That's fear."

I'm sorry this anger is way unfounded on the part of these congresspeople. They are acting like like "Joe six-pack", "Hockey Mom" and "doesn't see the country the way we see it" are passwords for a KKK meeting. (If in fact they were they could just ask former KKK member Sen. Robert Byrd, D-WV).

"Joe six-pack" doens't mean "white joe six-pack," it means working class person. Obama is "not one of us" because, he's black. It's because McCain believes that Obama doesn't see the goodness in the country and sympathises with its enemies.

I'm going to break "hockey mom" down a little. The truth is most "hockey moms" are white, but not white and exclusive. Clark's comment impling that "hockey mom" is exclduing minorities is a sterotype on the same level as "White Men Can't Jump," which I guess in this case could mean a white woman, and Palin shouldn'tve been a high school basketball player. Now I don't belive this what Clark is saying, but you have to understand her implication is on the same level. That if one is believable so is the other.

But republicans NEVER get the benefit of the doubt with the SCUM. Anything they can stretch into racism they will, and I hope the electorate sees through that.
