‘They’ve given “stoning” a whole new meaning’

October 4, 2011 | Filed under Meme Watch,Race | Posted by

Michelle Malkin points to the media’s double standards as they attempt to macaca Rick Perry:

RaceCard The frenzy is over a now-overturned stone on a secluded property — “associated” with Perry through his father, partners or his signature on a lease — that once had the word “Niggerhead” painted on it.

The Post interviewed dozens of people. The New York Timesfollowed up with another crack investigation of hazy memories of bygone days.

They’ve given “stoning” a whole new meaning.

Has Perry actually used the racial epithet himself — you know, like the late, former KKK leader Robert Byrd did as recently as 2001?

Did Perry condescendingly refer to a black politician as “articulate and bright and clean” like Biden did when he described Barack Obama in 2007?

Did Perry racially stereotype Hispanics for political gain or refer offensively to President Obama’s “light skin” and “lack of a Negro dialect” like Senate Democrat leader Harry Reid did just last year?

No.

The same lib media outlet that took down George Allen over a dunder-headed moment on the campaign trail in order to perpetuate the GOP=racist meme is trying to kick up dirt over a stone — a stupid stone — that has been painted over and turned over for years.

What does it say about Rick Perry? Nothing. Nada. Zip.

But it says a ton about the race card playing mainstream media and the lengths to which they’ll go to smear Republicans.  Expect much more yellow journalism as the campaign heats up and as the media’s favorite son continues to flounder.

It’s what they do.

    The real problem is that at their heart, Democrats are racist. They fight hard to keep a political apartheid system running in this country through the use of racial gerrymandered districts guaranteed to elect those of a particular race. They see the world through a prism of race, ignoring simple and truthful explanations (such as the Tea party can’t simple want to reign in the federal government, they must have a racial motive) for a knee jerk “Racism” response. 
    Why is all this relevant to the WaPo piece? Scan the article to find out the party affiliation of Perry’s father at the time. Scan the article to find out Perry’s party affiliation at the time. There was a time in Texas when the election happened on the day of the democratic primary because the winner of that would win the general election. Like Perry, Texas has moved beyond that. We have put aside the party of racism. Every state wide official elected in Texas has been a republican for over a decade. You can see the results in our economy. Texas has renounced the party of racism. I’m just having trouble seeing where WaPo mentions any of this in the article.

    Projection is just a part of the liberal disease. Just about everything they claim is horrible about conservatives is really just part of who they are. 

  • Anonymous

    The Wapo is showing that they are no better than the NY Times.
    They’re doing all they can to help Obama get elected and toward that end, they’re playing the race card.

    Did they happen to run the story on Obama marching with the Black Panthers in 2007?

    Didn’t think so.

  • Anonymous

    The libs and their cohorts in the MSM have nothing to crow about in the current administration.  So digging up dirt is all they’ve got……..and it beats hell out of having to ask the question “Where are the “Stimulus” jobs Mr President?”

  • Bob Armstrong

    NiggerHead. Rick Perry actually drove right past the stone labeled NiggerHead and took guests past it too as he entered the compound.

    What racism?

    THAT racism!

    • http://2011.ak4mc.us/ McGehee

      That was when he was still a Democrat, Bob.

        as usual Bob knows 1/2 the story.

        Waste of time, McGehee. Bob doesn’t care and now he gets a chance to use the N-word over and over again, which he no doubt enjoys quite a lot.

          I recently read something that fits here…. If you don’t read the newspaper you are uninformed, if you do you are misinformed.

      • Bob Armstrong

        And up until a few days ago he was the leading Republican candidate for President 2012.

        So you’re saying Perry was a racist then, but isn’t anymore?

        • jim_m

          Well yeah.  Because we know that lots of democrats are racists because, as democrats, they filibustered the civil rights act, opposed the creation of the civil rights commission, opposed the anti-lynching laws, and the poster child for segregation was George Wallace, a democrat.  Strom Thurmond ran as a 3rd Party “State’s Rights”  Candidate in 1948, temporarily leaving the Dem party.  And we all remember Robert Byrd was very high up in the Klan.

          Racism still has it’s home in the democratic party.  Always has been.

          • Bob Armstrong

            A Republican candidate for President in 2012 is outed as a racist and the best you can do is go back 50 years?

            How sad for you. You must really be in pain about this whole RACIST incident.

            But that’s understandable given that Perry is screwed as a candidate. There’s no way he can survive this and go on to win the nomination.

            Wow, who’s next? Christie folded his tent and ran away today, so who’s left for the left to decimate and shred…?

            Cain? Guffaw, a black man won’t be getting the GOP nomination anytime soon, that’s a given… We’re better off supporting Cain because we know sooner or later some conservative slob is going to call him a n*word, giving voice ot thwat the racists in the GOP are thinking anyway. That will be amusing.

            So that leaves Romney.

            LOL! Romney!

          • Oysteria

            You sad and pathetic little man.

            What’s sadder than your depiction of the republican field of candidates is that the democrats can’t find any one better than Obama.

            LOL!  Obama!

          • Bob Armstrong

            And which candidate are you supporting?

          • Anonymous

            I would be supporting a ham sandwich if that and Obama were my only choices, I mean of course an African American Ham Sandwich wouldn’t want to be called a racist.

          • jim_m

            Dude, I can go back over a hundred years of racism that the dems are responsible for but they talk like it is all due to the GOP. 

            The left is the ancestral home of racism.  If you want to go making bogus claims of racism like you do then just be rpepared to keep hearing how the left has been the party of slavery, segregation and racism for well over a century.

            And BTW, the only people I hear using the N-word these days are black themselves. (well except for a few years back when Robert Byrd used it). The only people I have heard making disparaging comments about obama’s race have been Biden and Reid and Clinton.  You don’t really think that pointing out that obama was clean and articulate was born of a nonracist stereotype do you?  Boy you really are gullible if that’s the case.

          • Bob Armstrong

            Yeah, you just can’t find anything more recent than 50 years ago.

            And it’s really too bad that Perry was caught by the WaPo – do you think it was Romney’s camp tha tipped off the WaPo or Bachmann’s? Obviously one of his opponents dug this up – it was one of Perry’s Republican friends who tipped of the Post. Do you think it was a Romney supporter? A Tea Party member.

            Niggerhead. The guy took his guests to a camp named Niggerhead. And all the right can do is defend him strongly – that certainly speaks volumes.

          • http://2011.ak4mc.us/ McGehee

            Joe Biden said Barack Obama was unusually “clean and articulate.” You know, for a black man.

            That was in 2007, I believe.

          • jim_m

            Yeah, I think I mentioned that one. 

            There was also Clinton’s classic bit of projection that if they were Republicans the only blacks in the room would be the wait staff.  You just don’t think like that if you aren’t racist to begin with yourself.

          • http://2011.ak4mc.us/ McGehee

            Actually, didn’t Clinton also say that a couple of years earlier Obama would be bringing him coffee? Nothing about Republicans in that remark, IIRC.

          • Anonymous

            And you can find anything more recent than a rock that was painted over 30 years ago by Perry’s father? And for god sake please stop typing the n word some of us find it offensive.

          • Anonymous

            Bob really does do a good job here of showing the liberal mindset and by extension,  the motivation of the LSM.

            “There’s no way he [Perry] can survive this and go on to win the nomination.”
            I have no doubt that is exactly what the editors and author of the smear piece were thinking when they published it.

            As to “…so who’s left for the left to decimate and shred…?”
            This is the democrat platform.

            This is all they have left. Their meddling destroyed the housing market leading to the crash of 2008, they’ve added 5 trillion in new debt without anything to show for it, it’s slowly coming to light how utterly corrupt they are (solyndra, F&F,, etc), race relations are the worst they’ve been in generations and  their policies are ruining what’s left of the economy.

            So what is their solution? To shred the opposition.

            Quite the party you have there, Bob. Really something to be proud of.

            It’s far easier to destroy than to build.  

            But destruction is fun and fast – and satisfying to a particular mindset.

            It’s a damn shame that we’ve got that mindset in charge.

        • http://2011.ak4mc.us/ McGehee

          Would you say Robert Byrd stopped being a racist sometime between being a recruiter for the Ku Klux Klan, and becoming the most respected Democrat in the U.S. Senate?

          I’d say if Byrd could come back from that, anything’s possible.

      It was painted over 30 years ago, Nimrod.

      I am sure that Obama has never driven (or was drove by) any thing labelled derogatory to whites within the past 30 years.

      You guys are going to have to give Bob a pass. He’s desperately frightened that Herman Cain will pull into the lead, thus forcing Bob to play the race card on himself.

    • http://2011.ak4mc.us/ McGehee

      You know, the Democrats still have yet to nominate someone for president whose ancestors were victims of slavery rather than perpetrators.

  • http://profiles.yahoo.com/u/EU5DQWQTTHTPO4A4ZYSL3AAV2U Adjoran

    Actually, it is how Democrats keep blacks – and to a lesser degree other miniority constituents – from asking inconvenient questions like, “After all these years of blindly supporting Democrats, will our situation ever improve?”

    Fear is a great motivator.  That’s also what they are trying to stir up on Wall Street, except the protestors are more like a bunch of clowns than scary rioters.  They should have stuck with union thugs, arson, vandalism, and assault if they wanted to intimidate anyone.

    Of course, some of us are well armed and waiting . . .
