What has Barack Obama done? He knows that, based on race, color or creed, not to mention a host of other demographic details, the race card is always available for counter-attack on anyone who expresses objections on an issue or proposes solutions that annoy the left. That’s right. If you have no substantive argument and therefore can only offer race card rebuttals, you are free to say whatever you want. Even if what you say is as racist as those you accuse of being that way.
On a radio program this morning, a talk show host and his guest were discussing this story. The question came up on why Obama is using this particular stand and why now? The guest answered that the left’s 43 year exploitation of civil rights issues as a manufactured wedge against the right is their standard approach. Use this emotional theme to gain support from those who feel ‘disenfranchised’. The left fringe including Hollywood celebrities and other guilt-laden rich employ public relations strategies of appearing concerned about the less fortunate to improve their status. Other less wealthy left-leaning ideologues find these false causes appealing to enhance their standing among certain groups.
The theory here would be that Obama realizes that his fears of losing a Presidential run were based on his lack of experience, any relevant history and only a weak campaign strategy of relying on his public speaking skills. He continues to worry about setting himself apart from other candidates without a convincing strategy or anything more than he has already presented. Obama knows he needs something more and he just doesn’t have it. This is real simple politics. So what do you do? Raise a fabricated issue and try to make it hot button. It must also be something only you can use. What better choice than the race card. Speak of Katrina, Rodney King and race riots.
The masks are coming off the Democratic candidates. Edwards is all about betting on trashing the troops as a winning strategy. Hillary Rodham Clinton is all about socialism and the impossible task of reinventing your deplorable personal history. And now Obama stoops low enough to use the race card as his central theme. The GOP may have their own demons to exorcise. But at least that possibility still exists. As a matter of fact, most voters can get a real sense of practical solutions and good old-fashioned American leadership in candidates like Mitt Romney and Fred Thompson. The lack of realistic criticism for these candidates causes opponents to reach for imaginary problems as their weapons. Those attacks are easily dispatched.

Obama fears frustrations will lead blacks to violence
Associated Press
Posted Wednesday, June 06, 2007
HAMPTON, Va. — Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama said Tuesday the Bush administration has done nothing to defuse a “quiet riot” among blacks that threatens to erupt just as riots in Los Angeles did 15 years ago.
The first-term Illinois senator said that with black people from New Orleans and the Gulf Coast still displaced 20 months after Hurricane Katrina, frustration and resentments are building explosively as they did before the 1992 riots.
Even Bill Cllinton believes he failed as President. Now he wants back in the White House through his wife. If Bill decides he has unfinished business in the White House, do you really want his wife getting him back in there? What has Hillary Rodham Clinton done since becoming a Senator? C’mon, what has the former First Lady done for America except for fanning the flames of the fringe left? Maybe the ethically challenged couple will reverse other roles as well if allowed back in the White House.
Romney has done well in both debates. He has silenced some critics and gained support from pro-life groups and the religious conservatives. Those who question his religion are frustrated in not finding any legitimate criticism of this candidate. His ability to raise money, attract endorsements and solidify the conservative base have been successful.
Mitt Romney has been called a dark horse in the 2008 Presidential race. There are so many candidates, declared or waiting, a dark horse description seems more fitting for at least four or five other candidates before hanging it on Romney. He has raised more campaign money than most. He was considered the winner in the first GOP debate. He leads the polls in New Hampshire. He received an award from the pro-life advocates. Time magazine will feature him, he was just featured on 60 Minutes and is inundated with interview requests. A dark horse you say?
It’s a long way from the 2008 election. Much can and will happen in the coming months. It is certainly worthwhile to discount the critics as politically motivated from opposing camps and take a close look at Romney. Dismissing Mitt Romney could be a colossal mistake. A man this successful who does not brag about his strengths, dimiss his flaws, shy away from a challenge or fear revising a position when warranted. That may fit the definition of a human being. We could use more of those in government. Keep watching and don’t be too quick to dismiss a candidate with this much going for him.
Initially the opposition to a Mitt Romney nomination were centered around his faith. In a nation that claims religious freedom as a core value, this criticism seemed out of place. Even though it seems too optimistic to believe the recent remarks of Al Sharpton would benefit Romney in any substantial way, some believe it will in fact help win some support from unlikely sources.
Even with Fred Thompson and Newt Gingrich waiting in the wings to see what happens, the article above is actually valid. The track records of Giuliani and McCain do not scream conservative. And it is also fair to say that all GOP candidates have flaws. But the flaws on the Democratic side are more pronounced and appeal to a vocal but nonetheless deluded fringe within American society. So the only choice for those who believe in conservative values or simply the rule of law and limited government lie within the GOP.
The respect for Senator John McCain does not preclude criticism of an unflattering nature when it comes to politics. The first stop to view John McCain the Presidential candidate was suggested by recent reports of a stalled or poorly managed campaign. The natural choice was entering his name in a search engine to check SEO. Had we not known that John McCain was a candidate, it would have been easy to miss any relevant search engine results. With the exception of a pleading by a fan site to visit johnmccain.com, there was only a myspace pointer to johnmccain. Looks like reinvigorating and revitalizing the campaign is not going so well.
First of all, the 
The dribble presented by the sources above draw the conclusion that Reid and Pelosi can get credit for fixing everything the way the left wants it, renaming it patriotic and in support of the troops and convincing the public and the other side of the aisle that this is the right thing to do. That these two people contend they actually believe their own words is one of the most incredible collections of madness on display lately. If this is the standard fare that one can expect from those who support the Democratic party, it should be easy to eliminate their newly found majority in the next election.
FEDERAL WAY, Wash., Jan. 24 — Frosty E. Hardison is neither impressed nor surprised that “An Inconvenient Truth,” the global-warming movie narrated by former vice president Al Gore, received an Oscar nomination this week for best documentary.
