If he was white and launched his political career in the National Guard working for some senator, I'd yell through the roof. But, since he's black and got his start in the home of a terrorist, Bill Ayers... that's cool.
If he was white and his mentor was his own Dad, I'd find some reason to find fault. But, since he's black and his childhood "father-figure" was a full-blown communist, Frank Davis... that's cool.
If he was white and there were fraudulent documents attacking his ethics, I'd insist Dan Rather displayed them on the air. But, since he's black, and the documents revealing a criminal land transaction are authentic... that's cool.
If he was white and attended a Methodist church, I'd be frosting at the mouth about right-wingers. But since he's black, and practiced a Marist brand of socialism under Jeremiah Wright... that's cool.
If he was white and a governor with executive experience, I'd argued that he wasn't qualified for the job. But, since he's black with only 143 days in the Senate... that's cool.
If he was white and used his Senate position to secure even one earmark, that would be it; he's gone. But, since he's black and secured $740 Million in earmarks... that's cool.
If he was white and received even a trifle amount of money from Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae's huge lobbying budgets, I would be yelling bloody murder. But, since he's black, and is the second highest recipient of these funds... that's cool.
If he was white and if a community organization receiving taxpayers' funds was registering phony voters and overtly campaigning for him, trust me, I'd be shouting no more federal funding. But, since he's black, and it's Acorn... that's cool.
If he was white and participated in a celebration for Martin Luther King, I'd believe it was for political purposes. But, since he's black, and participated in the million-man march with Louis Farrakhan... that's cool.
If he was white and showed the utmost respect for our Armed Forces, it would mean nothing. But, since he's black, and openly stated our military men and women were killing civilians... that's cool.
If he was white and failed to publicly acknowledge mistakes during war time, I'd think he was arrogant. But, since he's black, and failed to acknowledge he was wrong to vote against the surge... that's cool.
If he was white and pushed for a bail-out during a time of financial crisis, I'd scream socialism. But, since he's black and intends on spreading the wealth around... that's cool
If he was white and toasted a man who was once a member of a hate-filled organization against African-Americans fifty-years ago, I'd condemn him. But, since he's black, and toasted a recent member of a hate-filled Jew-killing terrorist group, Rashid Khalidi... that's cool
Hey, everyone... Get on board here. You know you're a racist if... And just be thankful that we're not like those others who actually looked at the quality of character instead of the color of skin. History was made, and that was far more important than preserving the spirit of the civil rights movement. Long live Martin Luther King.
