They Just Don't Get It


Today, more cries of "racism" have emerged.

It's just hate, racism, crazy paranoia, stupidity and every other base and vile instinct that prompts people to criticize President Obama. Nothing else. Or so says the left.
The left seems to have all sorts of ad hominem (Latin for "against the person") arguments to repudiate those who stand against government-controlled industry, cap-and-trade, government-controlled healthcare, or an ever-mounting national debt.
Have these folks read the health care bill proposed by the House? It will strangle all private health insurance, in a matter of years. It will give control of all health insurance (private or government option) to a health czar. Our health care will be beyond judicial or legislative control. We, the people, have a right to be concerned about this!
Or, look at it from another way. If the conservatives' are so wrong about issues, why did the Democrats go back and remove the "death panels"? Were there death panels, or not? Or take health care for illegal aliens--if this was all hunky-dory, why are the Democrats going back and re-doing this portion of the health care bill?
These issues are cause for concern. We, as citizens of the United States, have a right to protest and criticize.
“As far as African-Americans are concerned, we think most of it is,” said Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson (D-TX), commenting on how she feels that criticism of President Obama is race-based.
C'mon folks, these ad-hominem arguments are an insult to intelligence--these arguments make you look really dumb.
