Racism at the Head of the Democrat Party

Last Friday, Barack Obama unveiled his "Vote 2010" campaign video on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oh-yR1HWkbM). On the surface, it sounded like just another campaign speech to rally the troops, full of lies and distortions to help build up the Democrats broken image. But there were some disturbing lines about race, age, and gender calling on specific groups to support him at the exclusion of others. So I did a search to find a transcript of that video. Surprisingly, I couldn't find one, so I transcribed it myself. And you know what? I was right.

"In 2010, it will be up to each of you to ask folks like Claudia to stay involved and to explain why this year, the stakes are higher than ever. It will be up to each of you to make sure that the young people, African Americans, Latinos and women, who powered to our victory in 2008 stand together once again."

Imagine George Bush saying this: "It will be up to each of you to make sure that the senior citizens, Whites, Asians and men, who powered to our victory in 2004 stand together once again.

He would have been branded as the ultimate Racist/Sexist, skewered on the mainstream talk shows, websites, and liberal blogs. Where is the outrage that Obama could be so racist and exclusionary? Is he saying that white people and senior citizens can't help the country? We need the same outrage over these comments that we saw during President Bush's term in office. If this doesn't make you want to vote Republican, what will?

I will be posting the full transcript shortly.
