When in Doubt, Call them Racists

Written by Sheila Kihne.

This had me laughing today.   A Minnesota liberal blog is going nuts over a poll at the local Republican party's website that read: 
President Obama called the new Arizona bill banning illegal immigration "misguided".  Do you agree?
Sí, señor! 22% 
No Way, José! 77
RACISTS they cry!! You are all RACISTS!!!  I mean they are going nuts!  They are contacting all of our local officials to see what they think about the RACISTS!!  I thought the right had a monopoly on feigned righteous indignation.  It's like bizarro world out there.
Let's try this, how about a poll that read: 
President Nicoloas Sarkozy called President Obama's position on Iran "utterly immature."  Do you agree?
Oui Monsieur!
Sacre bleu!  No!
 
RACISTS!! You are all RACISTS!  Oh, uh, except French people aren't a race....hmm, yeah, neither are Mexicans. You could pick a hundred other countries, a hundred other languages and make the same comparison.  This was a light-hearted use of the Spanish language in a silly internet poll.  These people aren't logical, they're nuts, moonbats all. 
 
They can't argue the issue which is this:  Should Arizonans continue to allow people to knowingly, willingly break the law or not?  Or should Arizonans try to do something about it?  It's as simple as that.  That's the issue in Arizona. 
 
If you're interested in a good read on the AZ law- check out this article by Byron York and try to argue your way out of it.
 
The best part about this story though is that the lecture on perceived bigotry comes from a U of M college professor whose a well known anti-Catholic, anti-Christian bigot who spreads his hate on your tax dime!   It's ripe, really.
