Calling Obama an Elitist Means You're a Racist

Allahpundit reports on an LA Times piece by David Shipler that essentially tells us that any criticism of Obama is inherently racist.

Basically, Shipler's moronic thesis is that:

"[W]hen his opponents branded him an elitist and an outsider, his race made it easier to drive a wedge between him and the white, rural voters he has courted. As an African American, he was supposedly looking down from a place he didn’t belong and looking in from a distance he could not cross.
This could not happen as dramatically were it not for embedded racial attitudes. “Elitist” is another word for “arrogant,” which is another word for “uppity,” that old calumny applied to blacks who stood up for themselves…"


This is straight from the Reverend Wright's Perpetual Grievance 101 class which says that Jesus (who was black) was killed by the Romans, who were Italians, which meant they were European, which means they were....WHITE!! And that of course means the white race should be subjected to unending scorn and hostility for this sin.

Shipler apparently believes that any criticisms we may have of a black man is obviously a product of the inherent racism that resides in every white person. Gee. And all along I thought I was being fair by applying the same standards to everyone. Little did I know that if I call John Kerry an elitist (which I have and he is) it's cool, but that I'm keeping the black man down when I apply the term to America's Savior.

I also think Obama is a condescending, marxist snot who childishly believes his college mental masturbation sessions are a blueprint for something that can actually work in the real world. One wonders what awful racist beliefs that reveals.
