Jimmy Carter and the White Mans Burden....

Somebody care to tell me when Jimmy the Peanut Carter, became the voice of white conscience for the American people? Anybody? Hey don't speak up all at once. Well, somebody must have appointed the knuckle head and failed to tell the rest of us. Jimmy is speaking out, he has plenty to say, and if you disagree with him you are most likely the people he is railing against. Carter can see inside your heart, he is like Santa, he knows if you've been good or bad, and he can smell racism like his brother Billy could smell beer. Here is what Jimmy C has to say on the recent opposition to Obama, and more pointedly, the major, ass display, of S.C. Rep. Joe you lie Wilson; "I think an overwhelming portion of the intensely demonstrated animosity toward President Barack Obama is based on the fact that he is a black man, that he's African American." Did you catch that? Not some of the people are racist, or a portion of the people are racist, but an Overwhelming portion, in other words, the majority.

I'm not about to defend Wilson, he was out of line, classless, and disrespectful, when he called the President a liar. But that doesn't make him a racist, it just makes him a major douche nozzle. I'll even go one step further, Wilson might be a racist, I can't speak to his heart, unlike Carter I'm not a mind reader. Wilson might have Tourettes for all I know, perhaps he just has no filter between his mouth and his ass. Even if Wilson is the Grand Imperial Poo bah of the KKK, calling someone a liar is not a racist statement. Now, back to Carter. Jimmy is from the deep south, Georgia, racist cracker central. He looks through the eyes of someone who has seen large numbers of whites who are dyed in the wool racists. Much like Al Sharpton, Jimmy has taken it upon himself to paint white America, especially conservative white America, with a wide brush. And much like Al Sharpton, Jimmy's rhetoric only drives a deeper wedge between an already divided country. Making racially charged allegations, based on a gut feeling, founded on his past experience growing up in a state that is practically a third world country in terms of development, Jimmy only hurts, he never really helps.

I'm starting to get pissed at the apologetic liberal Jimmy Carters of this country. They are sounding more like the neo conservative, fundamentalists, the group they loathe with such passion and single mindedness. This country is being manipulated by the minority fringes, the uber liberal, or ultra conservatives. These people do and say extreme and ridiculous shit. They pack assault weapons to town hall meetings, they paint Hitler mustaches on the President's picture, they claim anyone white who disagrees with our President is a racist. They call for the former President to be tried for war crimes, they hung effigies of Sarah Palin in Los Angeles, the moronic behavior and idiotic statements and accusations seem to know no bounds. Our Senate and Congress can't get anything done for us because they are too busy trying to paint the opposition as the anti Christ, or hooded Klansman. I'm getting pissed because they think we are idiots, that we will buy whatever horseshit they are selling. It's an insult to the intelligence of everyone in this country.

I don't need Jimmy Carter to tell me when racism rears its ugly head. Racism speaks for itself, it's not hard to spot. I also resent Carter using his voice to assuage his own white guilt, while indicting half of America on charges of being racist. Jimmy is supposed to be an elder statesman, he is supposed to bring opposing sides together, he is supposed to unite, rather than divide. The fact is we have a black President, there are some people who object to Obama purely on his skin tone. At the same time Obama is President because of white voters, not in spite of them. There isn't a country on this blue marble that doesn't have some racism, or prejudice based on ethnicity, class , or religious belief. That is a fact of life, it's in our DNA, we will never be completely free of it, and we all have a little of it in us, even if we deny it, it's there, be you white, black, or fuscia. The issues in this country go beyond race, it's bigger than that. I'm not naive, I'm well aware that race is a real issue of contention in this country. That said, simply disagreeing , or even calling someone a liar, doesn't make you a racist by proxy, simply because the target happens to be a different color.

When you make unfounded accusations, when you cry racism where it doesn't exist, it only gives voice to more conflict. We have enough on our plate without some third rate presidential failure adding to it with his misplaced white guilt. The current batch of vindictive Democrats, the ones calling for the head of Wilson, are just like the Republican bullies they cried about when the dems were a minority. We don't have a congress, we don't have a senate, we have a bunch of 13 year olds flipping boogers at one another in between pissing matches. Shit keeps up, I'm moving to Amsterdam, and this time I mean it.
