You have to wonder just how upside down the world can get when a group who specializes in racism and racist epithets has the nerve to tell a group like the Tea Party to renounce its "racist elements."
If the tea party says they are doing so it proves they are racists if they don't it proves they are racists. It is like the old question do you beat your wife every time?
At the same time it is laughable that an organization who refuses to make the same demand of the New Black Panther Party, the Old Black Panther Party, Louis Farakan or any other black group. I had wondered before seeing O'Reilly this evening how these people could look another person straight in the eye and say they weren't racists or that they didn't know for sure that one of these groups was racist no matter what they said publicly. Now I understand.
Like so many other liberal things it's all about how you define something. They pick the definition of what racist means and by the definition the only people who can be racist EVER is white people. Their pivot point is that none of these people is part of the institutionalized America and only people who are part of that can be racists because racism requires being part of an institution.
As it is with racists of the KKK and other groups (though at least in their case they don't deny they are racists) but the mind set is the same. They are so convinced in their mind that their racism is justified that nothing you could say would make them admit, even to themselves that they were really racists. They either redefine it away or excuse it because of the perceived damage some other group has done to their ethnic group.
Understand again that it is perceived damage. This is much like the Muslims who are always and ever only defending themselves... The reason... because infidels attack them back in the Dark Ages. Yes they are quite serious about this. They never forget an offense and the offense doesn't even have to be directly against them or what they believe, it is enough that it simply be against any who hold or have held a similar view.
With much fo the black community it is enough that we had slaves. No other reason needs to be produced for the charge of racism to apply to every white person in this nation, even though many of the white people in this country came here long after slavery was ended and had nothing to do with it; even though about 1/2 the country was in the north where slavery was rare or against the law. None of these things matter.
It is a form of insanity that cannot be argued or reasoned with. If you as a white person deny you're a racist you're lying and ought to be honest so you're a racist and anything you do concerning the black community or any individual in the black community (such as the president) must be based on your racism. If you admit you are still guilty and then it becomes a label you can never live down or escape. You are clearly guilty no matter what your real view is.
You can point to specific things from the black panther party that are clearly racist, yet much like the Muslims it is hard to find a black man that will condemn them almost no matter what they do.
All of this flared up over the dismissal of a case against the NBPP for voter intimidation. Still you have almost no black men willing to condemn what they did. All they can say is that there may have been more going on, or they don't know those particular black panther's views, or any of a thousand other weak and ridiculous responses.
Yet these same people have the gall to say the Tea Party is racist and that the Tea Party should renounce their racism yet they cannot point to a single racist item that has been recorded but it is naturally assumed that there is at least some large contingent of racists in the Tea Party. The reason is because they are against the policies of a black man in the office of president so it must be motivated by that. Of course they can prove what motivates people because they somehow know what is in the minds of other people, but when they say things outright we still cannot know what is really in their mind, or maybe it was just a slip, blah, blah, blah.
The media as with everything else is afraid to direct any attention to the black panthers lest that media outlet gets the charge of racist.
Please be brave enough to call things what they are. The more you allow this sort of thing to go on the higher the boiling point will be and ultimately things will explode.
