Sick of Racism Claims

So, my family and I are vacationing in Indiana for a long weekend with my side of the family. I woke up this morning and caught the news. I was disgusted to read that profiling or racism was discussed as a possibility in the removal of a Muslim family from an Airtran flight after passengers heard them discussing security issues at the airport.

Given the FACT that Muslims are the leading perpetrators of terrorism in the world, a Muslim family discussing airport security on a flight warrants their removal. Airline officials are being bedeviled for taking action even after the FBI cleared them. Why isn't the Muslim family being judged for being stupid enough to bring up such a topic in that setting? How moronic of them! Shame on them!

I was equally outraged at how Blago's attempted replacement of Obama is playing the race card. Burris, on a Today show interview, repeated comments made earlier in the week by Democrat Bobby Rush. Burris is quoted as saying, “It is a fact there are no African-Americans in the United States Senate. Is it racism that is taking place? That's a question that someone may raise."

HELLO!? This has nothing do with racism. This is solely an issue of a corrupt Governor, who has lost the ability to govern, appointing ANYONE to replace Obama. It is absolutely nothing to do with racism.

I'm so tired of racism always being the go to when an African American or some other perceived minority can't get their way. Even if Blago could appoint this man in spite of his present legal circumstances, after comments like this I would make every attempt to have him disqualified and/or vote against him.

African Americans are not the oppressed people they once were and are barely the minority. According to the Washington Times and other media sources, the U.S. Census Bureau reports that by 2042 caucasions will be the minority. While I'm confident that racism still exists in America (represented by every race on earth), I am not convinced that racism plays a significant role in most majority decisions.

For instance, Obama was elected despite being severely unqualified and inexperienced and despite his terribly failed efforts to be a community organizer. IF racism ruled American policy or attitudes, do you think he would have been elected? It is doubtful, despite America’s desperation to escape GW Bush’s inexcusable lack of conservative leadership.

I’m sick of Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson alarmists. The American people are sick of them. We’re sick of political correctness doctrine. We're sick of organizations like the Anti-Christain Law Union (click link to see their logo) twisting our laws to strong arm our liberties away from us. Enough is enough. Crawl back into the hole you came from.
