   “assimilist” isn’t as much racist as Uncle Tom: a member of an oppressed group cooperating with the oppressors.

   A bit off-topic, but I hate it when people use the term “Uncle Tom” because it’s so obvious that they’ve never actually read Uncle Tom’s Cabin. The guy dies because he refuses to cooperate with an oppressor. The fact that he gets along with the “good masters” comes from his deep Christian faith – he actually nags one of them to convert.

   I love how she thinks Michelle’s whole self (”no knowledge of themselves”) is her racial background…

   Michelle, you are the free thinker that the left fears and with good reason. You have an impressive perception of the news and things that really matter to the conservative movement. People can’t understand how someone could have such a solid foundation in conservatism without being the stereotypical white man. Conservatism transcends race, it goes beyond the stereotypes and is rooted in the fact that America and her citizens are great. We are hopeful of the future, we don’t run from the past but look only to correct what is fundamentally wrong with whatever is going on. You have that knowledge and every person without it resorts to pathetic race attacks.

   Kudos to you Michelle. You are an inspiration.

    OK…I could only get through just under half of that video, and it is one of the most racist things I have seen. And I am not even referring to all the slurs she used against anyone NOT voting for Odhimmi.

    My God…but if you are an idiot, don’t make a video of yourself and put it on the Internet for everyone to see just how much of an idiot you really are.

    And this is what frightens me the most. This is the basic intelligence level of the average Obama voter. It is these people that are making the decisions that affect the rest of our country.

    Maybe the Framers had it wrong a bit. Maybe there should have been some level of an intelligence requirement before someone is allowed to vote. Would definately keep Obama and most of the Democrats out of office.

    My sympathies.

    Liberals have sympathy? From my interaction with them (I live in CA) not one is sympathetic to the truth. Just to socialism. Ms. McCray sounds pathetic, not sympathetic.

    I did some research…

    A liberal that can read and think?!? Must not have gone to a public school.

    …you are exactly what I thought – an assimilist with no knowledge of themselves. What a hater!

    Ahh. So all those “huddled masses” that came here about a 100 years ago (my ancestors did) and assimilated because they were proud to become Americans, they had no knowledge of themselves either? And they hated themselves, too? I wonder where Ms. McCray’s ancestors are from? Scotland, I bet. Her ancestors came here for the freedom and struggled to give their children (of which she is one) a better life. Of course, they hated themselves for doing that.

    You attract minions of jealous non-thinkers.

    Non-thinkers? Did you even bother to read your own email, Ms. McCray? And jealousy? It sounds like YOU are the jealous one. We have something you will never have. Pride in OUR country (because, you know, we assimilated) and a love of freedom. What do you have?

    …proud to have voted for Obama.

    Well, that says it all! So you’re proud to have voted for a Marxist that wants to -

    > steal property from one segment of society and give it to another.
    > bankrupt an entire industry and put tens of thousands of people out of work.

    If an intelligent candidate had said these things, you Obamatards would be screaming, “Who speaks for the coal miners?”

    Thank you for making me…

    Thank you for making me vomit.

    You have to expect the hate comments to increase in the last couple of days before the election. I just got two over at my church blog, one of which specific raised the issue that we were opposing Obama on the basis of race – despite the fact that the criticism of Obama was assiduously limited to his politics, his campaign tactics, and his character. Our church, by the way, would be considered a thorough ethnic mix – that is, if any of us were to notice it.

    Projection: it’s not just a way of showing movies anymore.

    The hate comments will continue through the election, and if Obama loses (from my keyboard to God’s monitor!), well beyond that, replete with allegations of stolen elections, Diebold, and voter suppression. Be prepared…

    From the best of us:

    There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all.
    This is just as true of the man who puts “native” before the hyphen as of the man who puts German or Irish or English or French before the hyphen. Americanism is a matter of the spirit and of the soul. Our allegiance must be purely to the United States. We must unsparingly condemn any man who holds any other allegiance.
    But if he is heartily and singly loyal to this Republic, then no matter where he was born, he is just as good an American as any one else.
    The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English- Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian- Americans, or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality than with the other citizens of the American Republic.
    The men who do not become Americans and nothing else are hyphenated Americans; and there ought to be no room for them in this country. The man who calls himself an American citizen and who yet shows by his actions that he is primarily the citizen of a foreign land, plays a thoroughly mischievous part in the life of our body politic. He has no place here; and the sooner he returns to the land to which he feels his real heart-allegiance, the better it will be for every good American.
    Addressing the Knights of Columbus in New York City
    12 October 1915

    It is both foolish and wicked to teach the average man who is not well off that some wrong or injustice has been done him, and that he should hope for redress elsewhere than in his own industry, honesty, and intelligence.
    Review of Reviews
    January 1897

    If an American is to amount to anything he must rely upon himself, and not upon the State; he must take pride in his own work, instead of sitting idle to envy the luck of others. He must face life with resolute courage, win victory if he can, and accept defeat if he must, without seeking to place on his fellow man a responsibility which is not theirs.

    If people think the charges of racism are bad now, wait and see what happens if Obama doesn’t win. I don’t know if it will be worse if he wins the popular vote but loses in the electoral college or if he loses the popular vote and loses the electoral college.

    Either way, every “white person” in America will be a racist. They cries of racism will go on very loudly for many years!

    if you seriously want to compare sites like this with places like KosKids and then say that we’re worse than that….they you’ve NEVER read their pages. A while back i posted things over there. I called for people to wait and let the facts come out, and to be fair to everyone involved. I got more hate mail on that account simply by asking people to be decent human beings, than EVERY time i’ve ever crossed swords from here. This looked like a Sunday school reading compared to the things i got from there, including “why don’t you f’n die” about 300 times.

    When Americans or any other groupe migrate to other nations, do they have to assimilate into their new homeland? I have seen very few nations outside the USA that have hyponated nationalities. How does Mexico handle groups moving their handle assimilation? Do they use second and third languages in their ballots, drivers licenses etc to accomodate? I don’t think so. Why are not groups here in this nation allowed the freedom to be conservative or whatever without being called an uncle tom or tio taco. Yes, LGM if the oppression is so tough here why would anyone want to migrate here? I understand Blacks had no choice in coming here but They still should have the freedom of being conservative if they want to.

    I could only interpret the sentences w/3 words or less. There’s not enough correct grammar in the other sentences to understand their meaning.
    At least she has memorized the slogans.

    Yes, it is interesting to analyze the email. That in itself is telling: unlike writing in the “comments” section of a blog, this person has access to a spellchecker and (probably) a grammer checker.

    Obviously, her overblown sense of selfworth leads her to believe she hasn’t any need for such incumberences. Or, her sense of moral relativism and amorphious view of objective reality have her convinced that “as it spills from her lips, so reality is”.

    The biggest indicator of her mental equipment’s functionality, however, is noted by our esteemed MtsEdge: her sentences disintegrate as she attempts to convey ideas needing sentences greater than 3 words. Obviously her attention wanders if the thought requires more that 4 seconds to express.

    In other, less long-winded terms: Typical Obama-ite.
