Jimmy Carter: Opposition to Obama is Racist

Carter is rendering himself irrelevant. Perhaps he is dealing with his own racial hatreds and using transference as the remedy?

Was the hatred (and I mean hatred) that some people felt against Bill Clinton during his presidency based on racism? Of course not.

There is no doubt that racism exists. There is also no doubt that there will be some people against the current president because of racism. But to state that "an overwhelming portion" of the disagreement with the current president is based in racism is both ludicrous and dangerous.

If any of you disagree strongly with anything that President Obama proposes, or does, are you racist? Does one equal the other?

In my opinion the one does not equal the other. This argument is a Non Sequitur, a common logical fallacy. People can disagree with political policies and beliefs without race even being a factor. To suggest otherwise is foolish.

Page one out of the liberal handbook is "Marginalize the Opposition". There is nothing easier than to call them racists.

Get used to it. Unfortunately, we probably have another 7 years of this.

And people thought that Political Correctness was just a fad.

This mentality is far more widespread than just Carter.

There's a pretty big difference from calling someone something out of fun.. and a President calling a vast majority of people who oppose Obama's policies do it because they are racists.

Maybe you should go from your house to a bar and pick out the percentage of people who are racists... then we can have some real scientific data to go on by you again.

President calling a vast majority of people who oppose Obama's policies do it because they are racists.

Could you point out the point in the video where President Carter says a "vast majority" of people oppose Obama's policies because they are racists?

Then, if you could, please let me know how you came up with "most Democrats" would have violated the new rules (re decorum in Congress) with GWB?

Now you're just making shit up out of whole cloth.

"Overwhelming portion"

I'm not sure how that can translate to "vast majority".
