Howard Dean Calls White House Racist
Of course he didn't. He actually accused Fox News of being racist.
But the fun part of his blustery, overheated rhetoric is that it perfectly encapsulated the racist and racialist divisiveness of the Obama White House, an Administration that has put relations into a dedicated tailspin every time it has opened its mouth.
Even Maureen Dowd places the blame for Shirley Sherrod's firing squarely at the feet of the White House, not Fox. The White House had her ousted before Fox News played so much as one-second of tape.
Howard Dean has always been somewhat crazed, which is why his fellow Democrats couldn't stand the thought of him being their Presidential nominee. But to blame Fox for Obama's racism?
That's a long stretch, even by Deans' standards.
Had you considered that Maureen Dowd's column is racist?

Can't wait for November and Obama will be a lame duck.

He spouts his talking points in an almost robotic manner, like somebody who doesn't have much practice speaking to an audience and simply can't relax or think on his feet. EPA should cite Dean because he spews much more CO2 and more heated CO2 than any normal person.
Posted by: zhombre at July 25, 2010 04:50 PMThe race card has run its course and no longer has any power except among African Americans, academics and journalists ( all of whom vote 95% Democratic anyway ). Any Republican, conservative or libertarian who is called racist should immediately point out that this means his or her liberal, Democrat or statist accuser has lost the factual argument and is now trying to distract with slander and character assassination. Assume the charge is false and say so. Most people will agree. The far left governing class uses the charge of racism like a squid squirts ink, to distract. Point it out. Hammer them on it.
They have overused this once useful tool. It's time to turn it on them.
