Anatomy of a Racial Smear

American Thinker "Lewis, it should be noted, is no slouch when it comes to race-baiting. During the 2008 campaign, he compared the McCain-Palin campaign to that of "presidential candidate George Wallace," whose comparable "atmosphere of hate" led to the fatal church bombing in Birmingham.

38 States Poised to Stop Federal Mandate at the State Line

American Legislative Exchange Council : "In December 2008, ALEC's Freedom of Choice in Health Care Act became model legislation. The model language mirrors Arizona Proposition 101, which was narrowly defeated in 2008.

Patrick Henry’s Fight for Liberty

Heritage "“I know not what course others may take,” he calmly professed then he paused.

Hang ‘Em High: Obama’s Disgusting ‘Give Them Somebody to Hate’ Tactics

Lloyd Marcus "In his gazillionth, and most recent health care speech, Obama used the same “give ‘em somebody to hate” tactic against the insurance industry. Outrageously displaying behavior unbecoming to the office of the presidency, Mr. Obama, with no holds barred, attempted to make the American people hate, and seek political vengeance against, the insurance industry."

Putting Racism Back Where It Belongs... On The Left!

The Black Sphere Blog "We produce a series for radio called Great Moments in Democrat Racist History, audio clips that educate with humor and satire, that we plan to offer to radio stations all over the country. My team is working on a pilot TV show that lampoons Liberals, and we believe will do a lot to bring a younger audience to the network we will pitch."
