Fantasies, Present and Future

Victor Davis Hanson  "...How in the El Paso speech can one pontificate about and deplore partisan politics and “ugly rhetoric” on immigration when at the same time asking the audience to log on to a White House website to lobby for the president’s political agenda — a few months after asking “Latinos” to “punish” their Republican “enemies”? Is the latter “ugly rhetoric”? If not, why? And was it not more ugly rhetoric, when his whipped-up audience interrupted his own cheerleading with “they’re racists!”."
Obama's election healed few racial divides; it has mainly served to open more wounds where many had not existed before. Without Barack Obama, we would never have heard the words of Rev. Wright, Van Jones, Father Pfleger and other purveyors of racism from the left. It counts for nothing that many conservatives admire men such as Herman Cain, Allen West, Thomas Sowell and so many others; these people are dismissed by the left with vile, racist terms that no conservative would ever dream of uttering.
And they are given a free pass by a press with not a shred of integrity. TD
