According to the LEFT and the MSM...those protesters last weekend in DC are motivated by race!

  • Newsweek’s newest cover: IS YOUR BABY RACIST?
  • On MSNBC’s Hardball, Mike Barnicle and Chuck Todd discussing if race is the real reason for all opposition to President Obama.
  • On Monday’s Situation Room Wolf Blitzer has the on-screen heading of “RACIAL TINGE TO TEA MOVEMENT”
  • CNN anchor Don Lemon previewed his 7 PM hour Saturday night by citing Joe Wilson, “Town Hallers yelling at lawmakers” and those “refusing to let kids hear the commander in chief. And on and on and on. What’s behind it? Is it racial?”
  • Video: Keith Olbermann at MSNB claims Van Jones’ critics are racist
  • New York Time’s Maureen Dowd on Joe Wilson “You Lie” outburst to Obama’s address to Congress “Wilson’s shocking disrespect for the office of the President...convinced me” Some people just can’t believe a black man is president and will never accept it.”
  • Chicago Tribune columnist Clarence Page who saw race as the common denominator: “People are not just mad at Obama. They’re mad at Jesse Jackson, they’re mad at Reverend Wright, they’re made at Al Sharpton, they’re mad at people who have nothing to do with Obama except they all happen to be black.”
  • A Post had a story on the front of the Metro section on how people attending the Black Family Reunion think that tens of thousands of Americans came to Washington not because they love freedom, but because they hate black people.
  • In an interview with NBC’s Brian Williams, former Democratic President Jimmy Carter attributed much of the conservative opposition that President Obama is receiving to the issue of race. Listen in to Carter in his own words Hmmm why didn’t that apply to opposition to Clarence Thomas, Colin Powell, Condoleezza Rice or even the Republican National Committee Chairman, Michael Steele (former lieutenant governor of Maryland).
  • News Busters talked about how ABC and NBC on Tuesday night joined the effort to undermine the anti-Obama tea party participants by smearing them as racists as ABC framed a story around the proposition “some prominent Obama supporters are now saying” the opposition to Obama is “driven, in part, by a refusal to accept a black President,” while NBC anchor Brian Williams touted how “former President Carter spoke up and spoke out about” the supposed racism.
  • Earl Ofari Hutchinson of the Huffington Post decided to play the race car by stating “The racial assault by droves of taxpayer marchers was simply the latest in the racial pillorying of Obama.”
  • Maxine Waters believes that the media should investigate the racial views of conservative activists “I want those people talked to; I want them interviewed ... I want journalists to be all over those rallies and the marches with the birthers and the teabaggers ...I think it’s not enough for African-Americans to say what they think, what they suspect ...I think that if you put the microphones in front of them, if you do the interviews, they’ll tell you what they believe, what they think.” Listen to her on You Tube
