here it comes – predictably

As President Obama’s ratings and support for Obamacare continue to slide Charlie Rangel has decided that playing the race card would be a good idea.  Some people always want to be the first to throw the race card every time something doesn’t go their way.  Just like a child crying “thats not fair!”.

Now that Obamacare is foundering Charlie Rangel throws down the race card.  From an exclusive article from The New York Post:

Rep. Charles Rangel said Tuesday that “bias” and “prejudice” toward Obama are fueling opposition to health-care reform.

He’s on the right track, but the wrong train.  America is biased and prejudiced towards socialism and half-baked ideas.  The backlash against obamacare has nothing to do with race.

“Some Americans have not gotten over the fact that Obama is president of the United States. They go to sleep wondering, ‘How did this happen?’ “

Again.  Right track, wrong train.  Lots of us wonder “How did this happen” but it has nothing to do with race and everything to do with broken promises, dashed expectations, stupid moves and socialism.

What’s really happening here (as is usual with the playing of the race card) is that Rangel is making an attempt to divert attention from something else – namely Charles Rangel.  In a startling display of stupidity Rangle posits that white Americans would rather have crappy healthcare than wonderful obamacare.  Using that same “logic” white America would rather burn in a fire than be rescued by a black fireman.

Rangel is attempting to re-focus attention away from his present woes.

Opining on the overuse of the race card and all it implies.  Just an average guy who is sick of the perpetuation of racial conflict by the inappropriate or unjustified use of the race card.
