Well if we have to endure the accusations of the left that criticism of Barack Obama is racism, why isn't criticism of Israel anti-Semitism, Hmmm? Just askin'.![]()
No, let's not. I don't feel like reading another one your demonstrations of mental gymnastics, in a convoluted attempt to redefine your gratuitous, unwarranted, use of the Race Card on every criticism of Barack Obama's actions by conservatives.

*laughing* That's your "evidence", tubby?
Criticism of Israeli government policy is now "anti-Semitism"?
I'd expect that sort of bullshit from Tzipi Bitchtits or miles or Dazzle.

Although there is a strong emotional attachment between Americans and Israel, I think that Israel's importance to America's fundamental national interest is beginning to wane.
Israel kills a few Palestinians from time to time and vice versa which stirs up the 'shock horror' brigade but there is not much of fundamental importance that Israel influences in America's interest these days.
You can say the same thing about any one of our allies. What's your point?
There he is again, following me around Lit and posting right after me.
Dude - get a fucking grip on yourself. Collect stamps or coins. You desperately need a hobby.
Throb's lack of self-control fits right in with his other mental and physical deficiencies. What a loser.

Because in the real world they aren't remotely the same thing but lets break this down since after six years Republicans still don't fucking get it.
Criticism or Obama is not in and of itself racist, never has been, never will be. Feel free to criticize him. He has much to answer for. The accusations of racism stem from the unbridled hatred thrown at this president for things that every president does and we have spent years pointing out examples of things and asking where was the outrage then. It's the complete lack of respect, and the left wasn't always kind to Bush mind you but not like this.
It's the repeated attempts to tar Obama as something distinctly other than American. Born in Kenya and accusations of being a Muslim. The first made no difference legally and everybody knew it and the second shouldn't matter in a country that isn't a theocracy. But it was a distinct attempt to paint him as something different. It's also funny how quick Republicans are to point out that Obama isn't "Black" He's black, white and arab. Why do you even KNOW that in the first place? I get the half white part if you looked at his mother but why are you even digging deep enough to know about arabs and whatever else? We both know why.
And Republicans are far more likely to say "It's not because he's black it's because of 'x'" but 'x' is almost always ill defined because once pressed it's obvious that those accusations are at best half truths and you felt the need to cover your ass because your ass needed coverage. We could also point out some of the BS people attempt to prove they aren't, I get why you guys like Ben Carson, aside from being a bigot he's intelligent, well spoken, accomplished (the product of Affirmative Action and government aid and wants to pulle up the ladder behind him) largely on his own terms. He's a damn fine example of what the American Dream can be. But you trotted out Hermain Cain to say "Look guys, we have a black guy! He's a complete bufoon but we have one!" He's like the black Sarah Palin, chosen not for their merits but to be a complete token.
It's nobody's fault that Israel happens to be run by Jews however and nobody talks ill of the American Jewish population. . .actually scratch that. The Right constantly calls them fools for voting Democrat. Or any other Jewish population. There is a problem with Israel. By the by does that make Democrats Islamophobists as well since we all seem to agree that ISIS and Iran and several other countries, leaders and groups over there are evil as fuck?

It is for many, asshole. Zumi leading the charge here.![]()
Bullshit and you know it, coward.
There are any number of areas where criticism of the President is decidedly NOT about his policies or actions but about trying to depict him as "other". Insisting that he's a secret Muslim from Kenya with no birth certificate for one.
Where did you land on the "Birther" issue?
Then there's the very obvious racist attacks, like the aforementioned depictions of the President as a witchdoctor complete with spear and bone nose piercing.
Then the really obvious but less widespread:
Carson, California, a right wing politician after losing his election tweeted of Obama, "Assassinate the fuckin nigger and his monkey children." Not sure, but maybe that's racist.
East Hampton, NY: 63-year-old Lawrence Nickel was arrested and charged with a four-month anti-Obama graffiti spree. Amongst the elderly man's other tags was this one, scrawled on a bench: "Obama is a lying nigger." I'm going to go with racist here too.
Using the Clint Eastwood bit as a launching pad, "chair lynchings" became a minor trend. Chastised for the racial connotations of stringing up a black man's effigy in his front yard, one Texas man replied, "I don't really give a damn whether it disturbs you or not," Johnson reportedly told Haenschen. "You can take [your concerns] and go straight to hell and take Obama with you. I don't give a shit."
Survey says? Yup, definitely racist.

You lying assholes have spent years accusing Obama detractors of racism. It's the go to response to detailed criticism of Obama and his actions by your intolerant left.
