      Liberals are not playing the race card. We are calling them out for playing the race card. Criticizing a President for his policies is not racist. Criticizing a President for lacking character is not wrong or racist. Implying that the President was born in a foreign country, is not a U.S. citizen and is not a Christian, but a secret Muslim, who pals around with terrorist, hates white people, and has malevolent feelings towards America is racist, because they would never accuse a white man of these same "crimes". Faux Noise creates a topsy-turvy world where things mean the opposite of what they say. It is just like saying that pointing out people who are carrying Swastika and signs with words like Fascist on them is the same as calling them Nazis. The poster wavers had been accusing Democrats of this, but when Mrs. Pelosi said it wasn't a way to have a discussion, her mere observation became an accusation of being Nazis. If being called a Nazi was so offensive to these people, why did they want to call Democrats that in the first place? Frankly, I find the use of Nazi imagery offensive and demeaning to the victims of Nazism.

      Blacks affected by racism shouldn't bring attention to that racism because doing so might hurt them.

      Conservatives affected by "liberal media bias" must bring attention to liberal media bias because it can only help them.

        Hmmm, Conservatives see it this way? No way, LOL. Everytime these Conservatives, FoxNews Channel, and Republicans get caught with their "wrong-doings" they "immediately" spin it around to become 'poor' innocent victims. Just shameless, indeed. LOL

          Fox has no shame.

          Playing the Liberal Media Bias Card is good, productive, and should be done for every single instance of Liberal Bias--no matter how trivial.

          Playing the "Race Card" (bringing attention to racism) is very bad, non-productive and will only harm you.

Obama a racist who have a deep hatred for white people while on Fox&Friends with Gretchen, Steve and Brian? Hmmm, wait. Are those crickets chirping? Just pathetic, pathetic, pathetic. LOL

      hmmmmm.....Gretchen's opinion versus Carter's. I'm not a big fan of Carter, but it is an absolute no brainer. The blonde chubby thigh bimbo loses.
