Clinton Reaches Out to Klan Members in West Virginia

Apparently the Carolinas bring out the worst in the Clintons. They've gone from flagrant race-baiting after South Carolina's loss to outright racism after their loss in North Carolina.

How far will the media let it go? Tomorrow will the AP headline "Clinton Courts Klan members in West Virginia"? 

And isn't that what she's doing? From her comments yesterday, it's pretty clear that she's pinning her hopes on stirring white racial pride, pitting uneducated whites against blacks.

Only I think the media's terminology for "white racial pride" is racism. And from what I understand, stirring racism can be highly volatile. 

It just absolutely amazes me that the media's PC movement has completely evaporated in the face of "special interest" infighting - 

Where is the outrage? If McCain had made the same remarks Clinton spouted yesterday, how viciously would he be vilified? 

I guess that's why most people have more faith in used car salesmen than they do in politicians or the lazy journalists who mindlessly deliver their "spin".

But nonetheless, the unrepentant pass the media have given the Clintons in making these remarks - and their complicity in helping spread these "messages" really needs to be called into question. 

Or are we just going to blame the end result on the ignorance of the general public, rather than calling out the folks who kept telling them the theater was on fire?

Maybe the ensuing inner-city race riots, which may well spread throughout the South, present a situation where the ends justifies the means. I'm certain newspapers will be flying off the news stands - either that or burning down with them. It's all good for the elitist journalists and politicians in their protected gated communities - "How did this happen?"

Does that sound preposterous? Any more ludicrous than a DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE PROMOTING RACISM  as her only path to the party's nomination?

Who would have thunk? It just goes to prove - reality trumps fiction every time.

I'm sitting here, listening to the Beasties' "Sabotage". I'm pretty sure that's the Clintonian game plan. It's all about damaging Obama's viability in the general, so she can redux for 2012. Then 2016 if anyone gets in her way again.

YOu got to be kidding me! I just watch it and of course listened to her reiterate, the news coverage stated she is winning the white uneducated race. LOL! OMG LOL! How pathetic is it that Obama supporters are trying to use the race card. You idiots! This will make the Reagan Democrats to vote for McCain. I'm sure McCain will eat Obama alive. He is an easy target because of his radical supporters. LOL

The Media talks about RACE, every time they give us the voting stats...which is everyday!!! Obama gets 90% of the Black vote, students,and upper income voters...and...Hillary gets 60% of the blue collar White vote, women and older voters. This isn't racist...these are voting blocks! And don't forget, the Catholic vote, the Jewish vote, the Hispanic vote,etc, etc, etc!!!

I think that bringing this up is a valid issue when people are talking about the ever-ambiguous "electability" of a candidate. Political correctness or not, if a candidate cannot win the votes of the white working class (for whatever) reason, he or she is going to have a very tough time as a general election candidate. I think this is racial rather than racist, a fine but important distinction.

I did not actually read the KKK article, so I am merely commenting on HRC's assertions that BO cannot win white working class votes.

http://www.freedomsenemies.com/_Obama/ObamaAfrica.htm Obama probably has one of the most gifted political minds. But,his heart and soul battles two (2) worlds and 2 religions. Can American's afford the ying and yang of Obama's personality? Can American's keep acting like desperate Eskimo's willing to buy un-needed icecubes from a slick talking used car sales-man, that puts most con-artist to shame? Accurately, where is all Obama's millions that are funded actually come from and who is going to benefit should he become president? A picture tells 1000 words they say, but some how Obama pulls the right words out of Websters dictionary and everyone accepts his hollow words. Solutions? Is Obama jumping on a drive by shooting spree against Congress and the Senate to make sure "all" of his idea's never get veto'd? When George Bush was running around like "Chicken Little" with his head cut off telling American's we have terrorist "cells" living on American soil. The green, red, orange and yellow Alert lights were going up and down like a wild roller coaster ride. What chances would Barack Hussein Obama have back in 2001 running for President of the United States? Some people say; "Obama won't salute our American Flag but wants to be our Commander in Chief of the American military. Is old glory whose stars are bright, ribboned with red, white, and blue stripes going to be made into a quilt? Is Obama running for strength in Africa to let them have voice here? Is it true once a Muslim always a Muslim? Why did it take 20 years and 2 of Obama's children baptized by Rev. Wright to wake up after 2 decades pass by to jump ship (God Damn America quoted Rev. Wright)? Pandering for votes? During the Clinton years in 1990 gas was $1.34 a gallon and dropped in 1999 to $1.22 a gallon. My life style was comfortable back then and I would like it back. With Obama we are placed in a dark cave with no flashlight or map, only echoing words from Obama there will be change? Good change for all or change for a certain group? Who are these powerful and wealthy donners and what are they demanding to gain? I'm sure it will be unbelievable as everyone is blindsided. Have we become so self-centered, self-destructive in a sadistic way that are narcisstic behaviors in the voting polls are becoming a scary joke? http://www.freedomsenemies.com/_Obama/ObamaAfrica.htm

YOU Decide, I already casted by vote for Hillary Clinton a real American.

Really, the media talks about race? Hrmm...
I thought racial profiling was bad - I guess I get confused...
As for the Obama supporters trying to use the race card - I'm not an Obama supporter. So if I use a race card, is that okay? And what exactly is a race card?
Again, I'm really confused -
Can someone please outline the rules on this whole race business. I thought we were supposed to be moving beyond that.
Maybe I need a professional media consultant and pollster - I'll look into it.

Are you nuts? This isn't racism, she was talking about a demographic (white working class voters) which is numerically larger than Obama's. Nothing racist about it. I swear, Obama supporters are following Dick Morris like the pied piper and doing everything they can to insure Clinton supporters will never vote for Obama. Keep calling people racists then wonder why they want nothing to do with you, geesh.
