Democrats just can’t let it go.
It can be fairly said that Democrats have a race fixation. Maybe call it a fetish.

Reviewing the lessons of Baltimore.
According to essentially everyone in the progressive political and media ecosphere, white racism competes only with climate change as the number one problem facing our society.
The media’s disgraceful reporting of the Rittenhouse case.
By making things up from whole cloth or, more insidiously, leaving out important details, the media created its own malignant narrative surrounding the Rittenhouse case.
Condi shows the Left for who they really are.
A very malignant form of psychological projection has taken hold in our political discourse and it comes predominantly from the extreme Left.
Virtue signaling theatrics.
Movies, plays, music and sports provide diversion that’s much needed by all of us. We used to know that. We seem to have forgotten.
Could we please have an honest discussion about race?
What’s missing from all of the demagoguery and wokeism on race is an honest dissertation on the sea change that began in in this country in the 1960s.
Where have all the good Dems gone?
Delaware basement campaign rhetoric aside, Joe Biden is nowhere close to being the “moderate” that we were promised.
Disgraceful.
President Biden’s remarks following the verdict in the trial of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin were an absolute disgrace – an insult to people of goodwill regardless of race or skin color.
Is America good?
Most on the right believe that America is good. A loud and growing cohort on the left believes that it isn’t.
The true racial tragedy.
No matter what you’ve been led to believe by the race hustlers, white racism is in fact near the bottom of the list of your concerns if you’re a 22 year old black man.
For the fun of it?
It goes almost without saying that if three white adolescents killed a young black man and cited “boredom” and “the fun of it” as justification, the outcry from the media, left-leaning pundits and the professional race industry would be deafening.
True hypocrite or just another hack playing the race card?
French author and Nobel laureate André Gid said; “The true hypocrite is the one who ceases to perceive his deception; the one who lies with sincerity.” That quote comes to mind in the wake of the just-completed NAACP convention at which organization president Benjamin Jealous successfully pushed a resolution calling upon the Tea Party to, in his words, “…repudiate racist acts and bigotry in their ranks or accept responsibility.” Just to be clear. There is...
How is her experience more rich than yours?
President Obama’s pick for the Supreme Court said in a speech in 2001 the following: “I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn’t lived that life.” Hasn’t lived what life? Do you have to be female and Hispanic in 2009 in order to be authentic? Does that mean that male and black no longer...
Obama’s chance at lasting change.
As we speak this morning (Fri, Jan 16, 2008, 7:53 a.m.), in just 4,987 minutes we will have a new president. And not just any new president. As we have been reminded almost constantly since late in the evening of Nov. 4, we will have the first African-American president. It is a signal moment in American history. On Nov. 6, just after the election, I spoke in this space on one very significant aspect of...
He earned it.
The first presidential election of which I have any recollection was the 1960 Kennedy election. I was six going on seven years old. In those days I was living in Amarillo, Texas and my dad and I used to go watch minor league baseball. In Kennedy’s first year in office, the 1961 Amarillo Gold Sox were affiliated with the New York Yankees and played in Potter County Stadium. That 1961 team featured future Yankees pitcher...
Rev. Jeremiah Wright should re-listen to Rev. Martin Luther King.

Michelle Obama’s America vs. mine.
Listen to the broadcast of You Tell Me on Newstalk 600 KTBB, Friday, Feb. 29, 2008 Here’s a quote that has been bugging me. “For the first time in my adult life, I am proud of my country, because it feels like hope is making a comeback.” If you haven’t heard, the speaker was Michelle Obama to a campaign crowd in Wisconsin week before last. Well, Paul, give her a break. She didn’t really mean...
Oh, look! Barack Obama is black.
Listen to the broadcast of You Tell Me on KTBB AM 600 Friday, Feb. 15, 2008. Barack Obama is well on his way to not only becoming the Democratic nominee for president, but, in my opinion, to becoming the President of the United States. Why I think he can beat John McCain is a topic for another session and believe me, we’ll get to that. But right now, let’s go ahead and deal with one...
