No, no, no--they're not racists! They just will attack, without justification, anyone of color who happens to be conservative.
After all, conservative minorities deserve it!
Karen Finney on MSNBC, approved of (listen at the end) by Martin Bashir.
Read this from Eugene Robinson. Now, for a moment, substitute Obama's name and circumstances in 2008 for Cain's:
Any white pundit saying such things was branded a racist, so why is it okay to talk about Cain this way?
In another thread, I mentioned I thought Cain was a loose cannon. However, it is the liberals questioning his qualifications for President and talking about him in a demeaning manner.
I wonder if Robinson was demanding all of Clinton's dealings with his accusers be released?
Btw, if the accusations against Cain were released, so what? We would know what two women claimed happened. How would that do anything to help prove what actually happened? We would have one side of the story. Again, would any liberal have demanded half of the story about Clinton and his conduct?
Is there any evidence of wrongdoing by Cain? Not yet.
As an anecdote, one of my buddies was accused of making homosexual advances on someone he wrote a ticket to. The man went into great detail about it.
Did that mean my friend was guilty?
If so, what would you do with the tape recording he had of the entire interaction? Thankfully, the cop recorded everything so the false accuser was arrested.
In an allegation of sexual harassment, is Cain necessarily guilty unless he recorded every interaction? Politico did a hit piece. Read their "explanation" today. There is no new info.
This is the lowest form of "journalism." It is unsourced, provides no substantive information, and puts the onus on the accused to exonerate himself.
What were the horrendous things Cain allegedly did? How much did it cost? Why did the association settle?
Politico provides no answers. That was a drive-by by a liberal site.
The Washington Post has gone after Marco Rubio twice in the last week or so. Why?
But, other news outlets, including the Miami Herald, not exactly a right-wing paper, pointed out the flaws in the WaPo's analysis. Any fair journalist would have looked into the totality of the story. The WaPo has subsequently run a story about how choosing Rubio for VP would be "risky" for the GOP.
Over and over again, the mainstream media gives the President a pass. However, they go after GOP minorities like they are rats carrying bubonic plague.

Karen Finney on MSNBC, approved of (listen at the end) by Martin Bashir.
MSNBC Democratic strategist Karen Finney told Martin Bashir on Friday that she thinks Republicans are supporting Cain because he is “a black man that knows his place.”
“Very seriously, and this is a little harsh, but one of the things about Herman Cain is, I think that he makes that white Republican base of the party feel OK, feel like they are not racist because they can like this guy. I think he is giving that base a free pass and I think they like him because they think he is a black man that knows his place. And I know that’s harsh, but that’s how it sure seems to me.”
“Thank you for spelling that out,” Bashir responded.
Read this from Eugene Robinson. Now, for a moment, substitute Obama's name and circumstances in 2008 for Cain's:
Obama's policy positions range from the ignorant to the unworkable to the just plain goofy -- and yet he is running first or second in most polls for the Democratic presidential nomination. He trumpets his utter lack of Washington DC experience as a selling point and boasts of living for a short period of time as a child overseas. If through some bizarre series of events he were actually elected president, the result would surely be an unmitigated disaster.

The Washington Post has gone after Marco Rubio twice in the last week or so. Why?
“Marco Rubio’s compelling family story embellishes facts, documents show.” The paper flagged a clear inaccuracy in his official Senate biography that states the Senator’s parents “came to America following Fidel Castro’s takeover.”
