The Obama Witch Project: RAAAAAAAAACISM!

By Michelle Malkin  •  October 10, 2008 09:45 AM


RAAAAACISM!

My second syndicated column of the week today mocks Obama’s frightened supporters in Washington and in the media who see the specter of racism everywhere they turn. Jim Treacher’s “Wacism” post provides the perfect graphic. Wanna freak out your liberal friends for Halloween? Buy a Sarah Palin mask, wear white, do your “thug thizzle,” and don’t forget to “otherize.”

Boo!

The Obama Witch Project

Republicans don’t need to dress up for Halloween this year. They’re scaring the pants off Barack Obama’s followers by their mere presence. Anything they say, wear, or do provokes instant cries of “RAAAAACISM!” Wink, blink, or think critical thoughts about Obama? You’re a bigot!

How many racial bogeyman have Obama operatives and sympathetic journalists discovered lurking in “coded language” and attire? Let us count the ways:

*At Tuesday’s presidential debate, John McCain referred to Obama as “that one.” Official Obama press agitator Bill Burton sent off an e-mail blast to reporters: “Did John McCain just refer to Obama as ‘that one’?” Horrors. Taking their cue from Burton, spooked Obama supporters hyperventilated like teenagers on the set of the Blair Witch Project movie. “The racial undertones were subtle but unmistakable,” declared Maya Wiley of the leftist Center for Social Inclusion. “McCain was tapping into a current of superiority among white voters. It was an attempt to ‘otherize’ Obama.”

“Otherize?” Sounds like something you do to your car tires to prepare for winter.

UC Berkeley linguistics prof George Lakoff was also haunted by “That One:” “The phrase was meant to say, ‘You and I are in the same area, but he’s the outsider.’”

Memo to McCain: Next time, call him “The One.”

*Obama supporters on the heavily-traffic Democratic Underground website (where such mainstream Democrats as Elizabeth Edwards hang out) saw the ghost of the Ku Klux Klan in Sarah Palin’s white suit jacket. Yes, white clothes = racism.
“Palin is wearing white again, inciting the racist crowds. She should just drop all pretense and put on her white hood and light up a cross. She is a despicable human being,” fumed a DU poster. “Grand Princess of the KKK,” proclaimed another. They’re “trying to send subtle signals to their rabid base,” yet another member of Obama’s rabid base declared.

My racial decoder ring must be on the fritz. Because I’m not getting the signal. If she wears white stockings, drinks a vanilla milk shake, and refers to budgetary black holes, are those incitements, too? And what about her gorgeous white teeth? Perhaps she should drink more coffee — hold the white cream! — to avoid emitting further racial radiation.

*Such paranoia is not limited to the fever swamps of the Internet. Earlier this week, the Associated Press disseminated an “analysis” accusing Palin of injecting a “racial tinge” into the campaign because she criticized Obama for his longtime relationship with Weather Underground terrorist Bill Ayers. Palin’s comments were completely unobjectionable: “This is not a man who sees America like you and I see America.”

I saw a vice presidential candidate drawing stark philosophical differences between two tickets. The AP saw Freddy Krueger with lipstick and a noose.

“Whether intended or not by the McCain campaign, portraying Obama as ‘not like us’ is another potential appeal to racism. It suggests that the Hawaiian-born Christian is, at heart, un-American,” the AP piece frothed.

Obama is half-black. Ayers is white. One of the Weather Underground’s victims was black police officer Waverly Brown of Nyack, New York. Where do I buy a pair of the super X-ray glasses that can detect the racism in Palin’s remarks about the Obama-Ayers alliance?

*I’ll have to borrow those hysterical-colored spectacles from Time’s Karen Tumulty, who spotted racist goblins in the recent McCain ad criticizing Obama for seeking advice from Fannie Mae corruptocrat, Franklin Raines. “Sinister images of two black men, followed by one of a vulnerable-looking elderly white woman,” Tumulty balked in a blog post titled “McCain plays the race card.”

Um, “sinister?” The ad’s photos of Obama and Raines were standard shots — some with dour expressions, others smiling. The fact that Tumulty perceived them as “sinister” suggests that she should perform a self-racism exam before diagnosing anyone else.

*A parade of Congressional witch hunters for Obama also detects the specter of George Wallace behind every policy bush. Democrat New York Gov. David Paterson says conservative criticism of Obama’s community organizing days is code for “black.” Democrat Rep. Gregory Meeks complained to the New York Observer: “They are trying to throw out these codes.” In the same piece, Democrat Rep. Yvette Clark divined segregationist intent in Palin’s references to Joe Six Pack and hockey moms. “It leaves a lot of people out.”

And Democrat Sen. Majority Leader Harry Reid echoed Time’s Tumulty on the McCain camp’s Obama/Raines broadsides: “The only connection that people could bring up about Raines and Barack Obama is that they both are African-American, other than that there is nothing.”

The Washington Post reported that Obama’s office phoned up Raines for housing advice and has stood by its reporting. Is the newspaper part of the McCain/Palin hooded racists’ coven, too?

Obama’s witch hunters better beware. When there’s racism in every hiccup, nobody’s air supply is safe.

    Anyone who plays the race card is an enormous child incapable of discourse and reason. There are so many examples of racism and maltreatment that liberals are so willing to ignore. Indeed, they are some of the biggest bigots and misogynists around (see what is said about Mrs. Malkin and Governor Palin). If I was McCain, I wouldn’t dignify any of that with a response. After all, adults use reason.

    The intensity and voracity of these “racial” pronouncements should energize us. For them to be this way implies to me we are close to exposing the stench for all to smell. They want us to deflect our momentum and “address the race charges.”

    My recommendation is say, “ya right,” ignore them, and drive home the Democrats’ collusion in the mortgage loan mess (5 million illegals with mortgages) and Obama’s ties to ACORN.

    We have to keep dragging those facts into the light and hope the electorate sees them.

    Keep up the fight and keep the faith!

How can there ever be any amount of relief to assuage their “fears” which are born of irrationality? We’ve already bent over backwards and here they are still decrying racism at every turn. Welfare, affirmative action and talk of reparations… where will it end? Having a “black” President won’t be enough, I can assure you.

    The problem with passing the racism accusation around like a hackysack on campus is that eventually, the sting wears off.

    As someone who became very conservative after 9/11, the terms Islamophobic and racist don’t hurt me. After momentarily being surprised that I’m not being compared to Adolph Hitler, I’ll continue thinking and acting despite what you call me. And I’ll continue to share those opinions with anyone that will listen despite your hurt feelings and looming Human Rights Commission enquiries.

    Those that seek protection from the scrutiny of their communities, shouldn’t be tossing the racism bomb out as often as they do. Once those labels lose their effect, there is nowhere left to hide.

    Are you freakin’ kidding me? If you think that it’s a racist comment, then you are truly lost and there’s nothing anyone can say to you to prove otherwise. The left is allowed to actually be racist because they care and the media is in cahoots with them. You guys see everything through your liberal filter first instead of what’s right and wrong. MM, Michael Steele, Condi Rice, etc. have been the victims of real racism, not this “read between the lines” crap.

    I actually got through to Rush yesterday after he played the clips of the media saying that Palin supporters are violent, angry people. I was able to tell him how angry I was about the MSM’s portrayal of those of us who are Palin’s supporters. I went to the rally here on Tuesday and everyone was happy and excited to be there. I’ve had it with the inferences of all of us being racists, homophobes, etc. You Obama supporters are all in a tizzy because your guy isn’t winning by a landslide at this point. I think one reporter said she hated Palin because she took away Obama’s mojo. I think that pretty much sums up the feeling of the left, including the MSM.

    If these “victims” of racism want acceptance and a color-blind society as MLK urged they need to look in the mirror. Look at their values and cultures. Choose marriage, get educated, stay with their spouse and raise their kids, stop drug trafficking, don’t join gangs, pick up the trash in front of their homes, stop dropping the “F” bomb in the mall, etc. Respect precedes social acceptance. Government can’t mandate it. It’s called civilized society for a reason.

It really smacks of a lame scare tactic to me, and makes me wonder how truly locked up this race is.

    When I hear “Joe Six Pack” I picture hard working blue collar dads watching a ballgame with his buddies on a Saturday afternoon. Including myself, although I became an accountant so I could quick working as a drywaller.

    But in my experience (even in Salt Lake City) neither group was limited to any one race, religion or other distinquishing feature other than having kids in the same program and/or liking the same teams. Although not many beer drinking BYU fans:).

    They can’t win by being honest about their racism in wanting Barry to be POTUS just because he’s half black.
    This would be the top achievement of their precious affirmative action.

    Two more items. In a blog post elsewhere, I read an Ayers quote where he said he sees himself as a black man with white skin. Ironic, perhaps sadly so.

    I cannot recall if “Dingy Harry” Reid was challenged about Raines’ inappropriate conduct as that GSE executive. Any legitimate interviewer would have “broadsided” Reid with those inconvenient facts.

    Well there you go- the AP finally got one right although we are not merely suggesting BroBama is un-American. Now if The One is Hawaiian-born we have no evidence and as far as He Who Has Come being a Christian all I can say is God Damn America isn’t quite up to the Sermon on the Mount.
    When I joined the Army I could not just tell them I was born here- they wanted a Birth Certificate. That was to be a non-person in basic training.

    Yeah, I’d have to agree that Biden was a bad choice. What? You were talking about someone else?

    Palin was a great choice btw. We know this by how much the left shrieks.

    And given the new Racist Rhetoric being espoused by the Obama camp, are we supposed to start calling Biden… Mr. Token?

    Actually no, whoever’s been up in Gallup a month before the election has won in the last 8 presidential elections. And since five of those wins were Republicans, I guess the argument that polls are just liberal spin kinda goes out of the water.
