Oh, please

Well, OK, the Arkansas Dem Gaz finally speaks the truth about the Clinton’s…that should be a news flash in itself. But here, they are right, the Clinton’s using “race” as a campaign issue is as likely as seeing Paul Greenburg chewing on his “big ugly Razorback hat, tag and all”. I’m sick of the press fly specking every word or gesture and then reading in some subjective meaning into those actions…which make news and give the talking heads something to talk about, I could scream. Maybe this election cycle will be the death of political punditry - we can only hope.

 Say what you will about Bill and Hillary Clinton, and Lord knows we do often enough, but accusing them of dividing their party by using the race card against young comer Barack Obama ? We’re speechless. Well, almost.

Has there been a more ridiculous accusation yet in this political cycle ? Let’s see…. The floating cross in the background of that Mike Huckabee commercial in Iowa…. The accusation that Hillary Clinton turned on the water works to gain votes…. The never-ending email that claims that Barack Obama is a Muslim….

Nope. Nothing’s been more ridiculous. So far.

 Racial equality will have been achieved in this country when a black candidate for president, or for anything else, can be criticized with the same verve as a white candidate.

Conclusion: If the Clintons are using the race card to divide the very party they hope to lead (again ), we’ll eat our big, ugly Arkansas Razorback hats. Tag and all.

Obama and his use of the “race card” is making it less likely that he will ever be president. He’s hurting those who are actually victims of their race and adding fuel to racisim.

Democrats should have nothing to do with anyone that claims the Clinton’s are using race. Obama should know better. He’s either dishonest or stupid. Either way, he’s not fit to president.
