Still a Racist

Happy Cinco De Mayo.

I’m still a “racist”.

Because I believe that if you stop someone legally, then suspect (like say 10 guys in a Mini-van without ID) they may be illegal that’s it is not Racist to ask.

And now I here the Phoenix Suns are getting into the act.

Sports Teams promoting a Political View, gee, that would excite me if I gave a crap about the Suns to begin with.

I’m not much of a sports guy.

I gave up on it a long time ago, the 1982 Baseball strike was probably the breaking point.

Rich millionaire owners and rich millionaire players arguing about who can out millionaire each other.

Ugh.

I did appreciate the Diamondbacks World Series run in 2001 and the Cardinals in 2008.

But for different reasons.

But now, in a pandering political move, the Suns will have new uniforms especially made for tonight which will be emblazoned “Los Suns”.

How about Los Barf!

How about one of those polystyrene extended fingers with a different digit sticking up!

And of course, if you disagree, you’re a racist.

So I’m still a racist.

Then I hear that our Uniter President gave an interview to a left wing journalist for his new book where he uses the left-wing liberal prejorative “tea-bagger”.

The offending passage that started the tea-bagger shuffle? Mr. Alter wrote, “Obama said that the unanimous House vote against the Recovery Act ‘set the tenor for the whole year’: ‘That helped to create the tea-baggers and empowered that whole wing of the Republican Party to where it now controls the agenda for the Republicans.’ “(WT)

And then alleged-comedian Bill Maher on HBO, who is so far left that only Keith Olbermann and Rachael Maddow are over there with him said, “I would never say, and I have never said, because it’s not true, that Republicans, all Republicans are racist. That would be silly and wrong. But nowadays, if you are racist, you’re probably a Republican.”

Kumbuya, Mr. Maher. Kumbuya.

JAMES PETERSON, ASSISTANT PROFESSOR OF ENGLISH, BUCKNELL UNIVERSITY on Bill Maher’s Comments: But I think the Republican Party should take a close look at what he’s saying, which is he’s saying that all Republicans are racists. He’s saying that most racists are probably Republican.

And what he means by that is, if you look at our political spectrum, if you look at various regions around the country, the small pockets of racism that still exist, they usually associate themselves with different conservative movements. They’re not necessarily Republican movements. (Hannity)

So now you’re a Racist if you’re a Republican. Period.

According to the Left.

Good thing I’m an Independent. 🙂

But I’m still a racist.

I disagree with the Left.

Therefore, I must be a racist.

Illegal immigrants got big headlines for May Day rallies that supposedly showed clout. But a closer look at the events suggests that illegals are now just pawns serving the far left.

Newspapers like the Los Angeles Times and wire services like the Associated Press and Reuters all saw perfectly well that the 30,000-strong May Day rally that hit downtown Los Angeles on Saturday wasn’t all hand-holding of earnest priests and humble proletarians protesting Arizona’s recent immigration law as American flags waved all around.

No, the rally, which IBD attended too, was a cacophony of angry chants of “Si se puede” and “Venceremos” as Mexican, Salvadoran, Guatemalan, Honduran, Colombian, Peruvian, South Korean and Russian flags waved.

Venceremos is a new one: I looked it up. Roughly: conquer, succeed, win, overcome, triumph; so it’s basically, “We will conquer you” “We will overcome you”…Nice unifying message don’t you think. 😦

Immigrants supposedly were told to wave only American flags, given the disgust of the U.S. public at the sight of illegals waving the flags of the countries they don’t want to be sent back to. But many ignored that. Others waved signs calling for amnesty and were urged not to do that either.

Aside from immigrants, there was also a high presence of union groups, some bused in from other states to boost attendance. Still, at 30,000, attendance came in far below projected estimates for 100,000.

Las Vegas, by the way, had its own rally where 1,000 showed up. But local unions like LiUNA had their orange-shirted members sent to Los Angeles, site of the biggest rally, anyway — showing how badly the organizers wanted the L.A. rally, with all its TV cameras, to appear big.

Also lacking media attention were the plentiful Che Guevara banners, Cuban and Venezuelan flags, hammers and sickles, Nazi placards, signs demonizing Arizona, Ku Klux Klan posters and banners bearing radical expressions of hatred against the U.S., all on display at the rallies.

This in fact represented the true sponsorship of the May Day rally, held in several U.S. cities. For four years now, the fringe left has used large numbers of illegal immigrants as props for their May Day demonstrations.

In parts of the U.S., these demonstrations became violent. Eighteen shops were trashed by radicals in Santa Cruz, Calif., in a news story unreported beyond the local press. In San Francisco, a pack of leftists also physically attacked a group of counter-protesters. Dismissed as an aberration, it got little coverage.

But these acts were perfectly in the spirit of the May Day activities of the radical left around the world — with leftists smashing shops, spraying graffiti, battling cops and burning tires in Athens, Istanbul, Berlin, Tegucigalpa (Honduras), Santiago (Chile), Cali (Colombia), La Paz (Bolivia), Paris and Madrid.

And just who sponsors these rallies?

In the U.S., it’s something called the National Immigrant Solidarity Network, which is anything but mainstream. Its Web site’s front page featured a sea of red flags of communism, Che Guevara banners, Mexican flags and La Raza signs as enticements for leftists to show up.

The group’s national coordinator, Lee Siu Hin, also works for an AFL-CIO affiliate. A key partner of NISN is United for Peace and Justice, a group that has been led by Cuba apologist Leslie Cagan.

According to David Horowitz’s invaluable “Discover the Networks” Web site, NISN has partnered closely with ultraradical groups like Code Pink, the Vanguard Public Foundation and the Institute for Policy Studies, among others, suggesting they’ve got lots of money.

Such radicals should be exposed, because they’re clearly — and cynically — using illegal immigrants as a strategy.

Truth is subservient to their agenda, which is built on a Big Lie: that anyone opposing Arizona’s new law is a bigot who hates brown-skinned immigrants.

Aided by a willing media, they’ve managed to frame the issue falsely as a battle between immigrants and racist yahoos to obscure and distract from the real issue: whether illegal immigration (not legal immigration) should be tolerated and rewarded.

In doing this, they obscure the serious issues around an unchecked border where American citizens are starting to get killed by lawless illegal freebooters who also happen to be at war with Mexico. These outlaws get rich off illegals who pay them smuggling fees, populate their slavery rackets and serve as drug-trafficking foot soldiers.

By the way, around the time these rallies were kicking off, another deputy on the Arizona-Mexico border was shot by an illegal immigrant. Another day in the life.

The radicals here don’t want the border closed. Being basically anti-American, they’d rather the U.S. didn’t exist, which is what happens when borders are erased.

Now, just as drug smugglers exploit illegals, so do they.(IDB)

But I’m still the racist for daring to disagree with the Left.

Oh well.  I guess I better get back to dry cleaning my hood… 🙂
