Questions of Importance

Take a moment to answer these questions:

1) Is it racist to lament the fact that more people are getting food stamps under president Obama than at any time in history?

2) Is it racist to air a television commercial in which a white man says that Obama has failed us and does not deserve re-election?

3) Is it racist to complain that Obama does not care about the average American?

4) Is it racist to argue that attorney general Eric Holder is incompetent?

5) Is it racist to point out that Obama does not understand how the private sector works?

6) Is it racist to denounce the Obama campaign for running the most negative campaign in history?

7) Is it racist to vote Republican?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you may need to get help. Without a doubt, you have been taken in by the liberal press that spends inordinate amounts of time labelling any opposition to Obama as "racist". The truth is that each of the items mentioned above is not only fair comment on Obama and the Obamacrats, but also is correct.

The Obamacrat campaign is based to a great extent on the big lie of racism to motivate the Obamacrat base. Let me speak from my own experience. I remember the 1960's clearly; back then, racism was real and widespread. Over the decades since then, racism has declined consistently. To hear the left describe the country, however, one would think that Bull Connor is about to unleash the dogs and fire hoses. These folks live in a world of delusion where truth does not matter. All the change of the last half century is irrelevant in their eyes.

Another good example of the delusions of the left is the environment. Since the environmental movement was adopted in Washington by president Nixon (yes, it was Nixon who started the federal government moving towards environmental cleanup), nearly all pollution of air and water has been removed. Rivers that used to be completely polluted are now used for fishing and swimming. Air quality on average is many times better than it was half century ago. To hear the left tell it, however, the environment is under assault from all sides. It just is not true -- but that does not stop the delusional story from being passed on in the press, in schools and on TV. The problem is that these mass delusions are capable of doing great harm to the country. Everyone needs to be told the truth.
