Quick to Blame, Slow to Accept Responsibility

Posted by admin on 2008 October 27

As expected, Republicans were quick to condemn the 6′4″ dark-skinned negro who mutilated a young McCain campaign volunteer, carving the letter “B” into her face to teach her who to vote for. That mugger, they exclaimed, was the very epitome of the unthinking, crazed Omamabot, egged on by their smooth-voiced leader to “get in the face” of the opposition.

After Ashley Todd was exposed as a liar, someone on Freerepublic actually proposed that they should change the story’s inflammatory headline, and a few suggested that they tone down their rhetoric and not have such a knee-jerk reaction to paint all of their opponents with the same hateful brush. Those kind of Republicans are few and far between these days, however.

And now that 2 skinheads in Tennessee have been arrested in connection with a plot to assassinate Obama and kill 102 African-Americans, that same website that was so quick to pounce on an imaginary black man and condemn half the citizens of the United States, merely claims the arrest is a setup, a hoax, a new Reichstag fire to cement the “Nazi” Barack Obama into power. And of course, nothing they or their leaders have said over the course of this campaign had any effect on encouraging these would-be assassins to action.

Quick to blame, slow to accept responsibility.
