To make the point on what mindset Barry said he follows, if you and I are agreeing herethey needed to illustrate HOW that is obvious ...just where he has taken the DOJ is full of examples. Barry had a pass to do it, for NOBODY would touch race issues early on. |

(a sort of stream-of-consciousness post, forgive me, I'm on the way out the door, don't want to lose the notes, and so will leave for discussion amongst yourselves . . . )
This phrase got me looking for NC's "Racial Justice Act", and this editorial popped up
The effect of Derrick Bell's theory? .. . and Prof Ogletree who claims he was "joking" on his comment about hiding the video clip. . . Ogletree represented Gates, wrote a book
Not getting into what Biden "might have said", but he was ejected from the discussion because he was white? or because he frequently mis-speaks? on racial profiling/traffic stops:
And this is sound advice no matter what color you are:
Years and years ago when I was in school, an acquaintance was killed by a trooper who thought the 18 year old WHITE male was reaching for a gun during a traffic stop. Put Both Your Hands On The Steering Wheel and Keep Them There. ttyl |

Rant On! We knew exactly who Obama was in 2008. At least those who cared to open up their eyes. I am sorry for being so blunt, however Obama's involvement with Chicago's Trinity Church was revealed. The Rev Wright's racist views were clear for everyone to hear. Who in the right minds couldn't have been outraged at Wright's sermon after 911, "the chickens have come home to roust." Obama got a big pass on that, really? Any sane person would have left that Church, as Oprah to her credit did. Obama sat there for 20 years! We showed how the Trinity Day School was run on exorbitant govt grants. It was clear to me they were just racial hucksters and there sitting in the pew listening to his mentor, his pastor to whom he dedicated the title of his "auto" biography was Obama. the man who voted present most of the time in the Illinois & later US Senate. That he admired Bell is revealing. The proof is in Obama's record. He is nothing more than another Politician who put hand in the pot & fed his mega wealthy donors. Worse he is a fool who has led this country down a rat-hole of debt, banked on a "Green" future which isn't happening, and degraded the USA power on the world stage. Jimmy Carter was a horrible President, but Obama takes the cake & Michelle eats it. How many vacations and lavish lifestyles do we have to pay for her? Planting a "garden" while she wears her $1000 shoes. Never-mind it is tended by our US Park employees. What sacrifice! She is nothing but a big phoney, as is he. The reality comes down to this? Are you better today because Obama was elected in Nov 2008? I know I am not and many of the people I know are not either. Let's take a look at the people who really had "Hope & Change" with dreams of Obama being a new kind of politician, the Blacks of America. They are suffering from his economy, his gas prices, his policies, and they will suffer them for a while, a far too long "while." Edited by Baldo, Mar 10 2012, 02:40 PM.

. CNN had a long, long segment on Derrick Bell. They made him out to be an Angel - glowing, glowing and more glowing. The only thing pull-back on the Sainthood was that he underestimated the amount of community organizing that would need to be done to bring about the change. The quote was that he thought his place in Heaven was reserved, but he underestimated the amount of Organizing that was needed to effect change. This is a guy that stated his goal in life was to Harass White People! . |

If it's not a big deal why do they keep lying about it? "This morning, CNN host Soledad O'Brien .... decided to have on her program Emory University Professor of Law Dorothy Brown to shill for Critical Race Theory (CRT). Here's what Brown had to say: Critical Race Theory seeks to explain judicial decisions by asking the question what does race have to do with it .. it looks at race in America .. It's nothing about white supremacy. When I hear "white supremacy" I think of the Ku Klux Klan. Critical Race Theory is the opposite of that. So honestly, I have no idea what he was talking about. Hilariously, Soledad then refers to the Wikipedia entry on CRT - the same entry she likely referred to during the original interview -- and stated that the definition has been changed 82 times. She says she hasn't changed the Wikipedia entry; then she asks if Brown is surprised that there's been parsing. Brown admits that there are varying interpretations of CRT, but says that everyone agrees it's not about white supremacy. But wait a second - as TheRightSphere points out, Brown wrote this herself: Although CRT does not employ a single methodology, it seeks to highlight the ways in which the law is not neutral and objective, but designed to support White supremacy and the subordination of people of color. In other words, the precise opposite of what Brown said on CNN. So CNN was trying to mislead its viewers to protect Obama?! Say it ain't so, Soledad!" .... http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Journalism/2012/03/12/soledad-stop-tweeting |

. Good Point. That is what drives me crazy about the Democrats - they hide their real positions. I don't like scamsters and I don't like Snake-Oil salesman and all the disengenuousness turns me off. They claim they this and secretly hold this position - and it comes out regularly at critical junctures. . |

http://chronicle.com/blogs/innovations/bell-epoque/31897 I think I stand corrected. It may just BE a big deal...if time is taken to explain WHY to voters. |

Yep it is important. It should have been debated during the 2008 but the MSM hide it. The point is does Obama believe in Critical Race Theory? I believe his life says so & the way Holder's DOJ is run backs it up. |

It's not mentioned, but O'brien was a fan of Bell. She failed to mention that during that show. |

What's the matter with Soledad O'Brien? By Michelle Malkin March 14, 2012 ....O'Brien lost her cool when Pollak shed light on Bell's fringe legal theories. Acting more like an Obama campaign surrogate than a disinterested host, she angrily jumped on Pollak's mention of CRT. "That is a complete misreading of critical race theory," she shrieked. "That's an actual theory. You could Google it and some would give you a good definition. So that's not correct!" When viewers took to Twitter to pepper O'Brien with follow-up questions about critical race theory, the CNN star had a twit fit. She invited a liberal professor, Emory University's Dorothy Brown, on her television show to back her up and then lashed out: "See? That was our critical race theory 101. Stop tweeting me. We have moved on, people." Not so fast, sister. Turns out that O'Brien, a Harvard grad, has a rather emotional connection to Bell. As documented at my new Twitter curation/aggregation site Twitchy.com, O'Brien tweeted that it was a "rough day" for her when Bell passed away last fall. She wrote that she had "just started re-reading" one of his books and mourned again: "RIP Prof. Bell." O'Brien also shared tributes to Bell from fellow Harvard prof and friend of Obama Charles Ogletree. That's the same Professor Ogletree who bragged that he "hid" the Obama/Bell video during the 2008 campaign. O'Brien failed to disclose her pro-Bell bias to viewers before her segments. O'Brien also failed to disclose that the liberal prof who denied on her show that critical race theory had aaaaaanything to do with bashing America as a white supremacy-ruled government actually wrote the exact opposite. In one of her own books, Brown asserted that the purpose of CRT was to "highlight the ways in which the law is not neutral and objective, but designed to support White supremacy and the subordination of people of color."Oops...snipped ....Nope, liberal minority journalists simply can’t resist carrying water for Obama. That’s because their journalistic unity demands political unanimity. If you don’t accept the left-leaning agenda of “social change” journalism, you’re enabling racism. If you don’t support the pursuit of racial hiring goals as a primary journalistic and academic goal, you’re selling out. Now you know the reason for O’Brien’s thin-skinned reaction to Obama’s critics. When you vet the president, you vet the media. And they don’t like the narrative table-turning one bit. http://michellemalkin.com/2012/03/14/whats-the-matter-with-soledad-obrien/ Edited by Baldo, Mar 16 2012, 07:46 PM.
