Liberal acquaintances I know and others who have responded to my posts here and elsewhere are trying to convince me that I am a racist. Given their comments, which are more like rants, I have enumerated their reasons behind my blatant racism. Here are the ten most cited arguments that the average
liberal gives as proof that I am considered a certifiable racist. I have taken the liberty of cleaning up their verbiage and put them into intelligent and understandable language:
1) I am against big government and big government bailouts for
failing institutions;
2) I don't want to pay for someone else's mortgages, nor share my
wealth;
3) I don't want to be punished for having a successful business;
4) I voted for a Hero and not a handout;
5) I believe that the government works for me and I don't work for
the government;
6) I believe that this country was founded on Judeo-Christian
principles which once made us great;
7) I believe the government is the problem; not the solution to the
problem;
8) I don't want to be told who I can't disagree with or suffer jail
time for uttering "hate-speech";
9) I am against the Fairness Doctrine - knowing that AM Talk Radio
would be squelched, but not NBC, PBS and NPR; and
10) I believe that God has already sent us a savior and his name is
not Barack H. Obama.
What prompted me to post these was a comment made by neighbor today.
When I said to him I believed the Democratic Party should be renamed
the Socialist Party, he responded: "Shh, someone might call you a
racist for saying that!" OK, let's add that to my list of ten giving
me 11 reasons why I am a racist, even though there is nothing
implicitly or explicitly noted in these statements which even allude
to me being a racist. It's just that I don't agree with the
Democratic Party which means I don't agree with their leader, who
just happens to be black, which then means I hate black people. You
had to stretch a long way to arrive at that conclusion didn't you?
I am tired of being called a racist. The Democrats and liberals call
me that all the time. I guess it's better to be a racist than a
slave owner! After all, the Democrats "own" the African-American
vote by giving them victim status and then passing entitlement
programs which "enslaves" their minds. This makes the 12th reason
why I am a racist, viz. I won't let the government control my mind!
Democracy, as we once knew it, is quite possibly dead. One thing is
for certain, if our Founding Fathers were to return from the dead
and see what we have done to our country, they quite possibly would
lead another revolution! Maybe it's time that we should too!
I realize there are probably several more reasons for me being a
certified racist, not the least of which is because I occasionally
watch Fox News. By the way, let's make it an unlucky 13 reasons for
me being a racist: I like FOX News and occasionally watch Bill
O'Reilly!
