I knew it was going to happen sooner or later. All of this race-bating that has been happening over the years has now come full circle to bite people like Rev. Al Sharpton and Rev. Jesse Jackson in the behind. They have raised so much bad attention to the problem of racism that it is now going to hurt their cause.
Senator Barrack Obama's mentor and pastor Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr. has made some really controversial and dare I say racist comments. The worst of the worse is his relationship with Louis Farrakhan, someone as racist as Hitler was. Rev. Wright gave Farrakhan and award and a cover story in his church magazine.
Now imagine if you will that Mitt Romney's mentor is Strom Thurman and Strom Thurman gave award to the leader of the Ku Klux Klan. What would the media and the Liberal media do with a story like that? What would the New York Times do with a story like that?
The fact that Senator Obama hasn't come out and condemned Farrakhan, this award and the fact the media hasn't pounded on this story shows the double standard and terrible bias that has plagued our media. Since Senator Obama is running for president then this issue is going to be brought out front and center.
Don Imus makes a distasteful comment that slightly hints towards race and he's practically run out of town. So the question is going to asked, in a time where racism is still an issue but miles and miles ahead of the past, how can we be overzealous in our judgment and prosecution of one type of racism and not another?
