Here\u2019s the sequence: Donald Sterling utters some \u201cracist\u201d comments and it becomes a big flap. President Obama then, of course, must comment about it, because, after all, he is<\/strong> the president. He is required to comment about something as small as that, apparently because nothing else is going on: \u201cWhen people -when ignorant folks want to advertise their ignorance, you don\u2019t really have to do anything, you just let them talk. And that\u2019s what happened here.\u201d No. That\u2019s not<\/strong> what happened here. We would not have heard Obama\u2019s comments if he would have followed his own statement. \u201c\u2026 you don\u2019t really have to do anything\u2026\u201d Why can\u2019t He ignore the ignorant? Because progressives are constantly on the lookout for opportunity to perpetuate the persistence of vision that America is a racist country, and therefore, there is still suffering at the hands of the racist whites. The progressives will never let the racism mantra go, because without it they cannot continue to pursue their agenda. Could white people be getting tired of being called racist? Or do they just have to \u201ctake it\u201d because the blacks had to \u201ctake it\u201d for so long? Apparently to progressives, two wrongs can make a right.<\/p>\n

Notice that Donald Sterling does not have \u201cconservative\u201d or \u201cRepublican\u201d as a descriptor before his name in the news? If he was a conservative and Republican, you\u2019d be able to bet good money that there would be those descriptors. But he\u2019s not. Donald Sterling donates money to Democrat politicians, because he\u2019s a Democrat. But the blamestream media doesn\u2019t need to be bothered with those kind of details.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
