You’re a Bigot, Now Vote for Me! The Progressive’s Plan for November.
by Derek HunterAre you opposed to Obamacare or illegal immgration? You’re a racist. Are you opposed to gay marriage? You’re a homophobe. Did you oppose Elana Kagan’s appointment to the Supreme Court? You’re a sexist. After less than two years of complete Democrat control of government, there aren’t many Americas progressives haven’t accused of some sort of bigotry for simply having an opinion different from theirs. The politics of “hope” and “change” have devolved into exactly what those espousing them claimed they would end. Is this really Democrat’s plan to win votes in November?
Barack Obama campaigned under the banner of unity and ending the “politics of division.” But that banner was swiftly furled and the true banner of progressive politics began flying over our country. Progressivism leaves no room for debate or disagreement. To paraphrase former President Bush, to progressives you’re either with them or you’re with the enemy.
During the Obamacare debate, opponents were compared to opponents of civil rights legislation. The ethically challenged Congressman from New York, Charlie Rangel, said “The group that were in Washington fighting against the health bill and fighting against the President, [they] looked just like and sounded just like those groups that attacked the civil rights movement in the South.” Left-wing blogs ran with this mantra and agenda-driven media outlets like MSNBC dutifully followed. They still advance the lie that African-American Members of Congress were pelted with racial slurs as they walked to cast their vote, something even the New York Times has acknowledged there is zero evidence of.
The ends justify the means, no matter how sickening and divisive the means.
When a judge in California overturned Proposition 8, a ballot measure that defined marriage as being between one man and one woman which was passed by voters, these self-appointed champions of democracy cheered its undermining. Whatever your opinion on the issue, it was a rather ironic turn for people who use the word “democracy” as though they respect it.
When Elena Kagan was nominated to the Supreme Court without much of a record, opposition to this life-time appointment was called sexist all across the left-wing echo chamber. Blogs were replete with this unfounded charge, with headlines like “Not-So-Subtle Sexism at the Kagan Hearings” from the blog at Ms. Magazine.
The bigotry arrow has become the default weapon in the progressive’s quiver, only it’s lost its sting.
When Arizona passed a state law allowing police to enforce federal law on immigration, progressives cried racism. It couldn’t be that a majority of Arizonans, and Americans, simply support forcing immigrants to enter the country legally – opponents needed to be painted as bigots.
When 9/11 families expressed discomfort with building a Mosque two blocks from where Muslin extremists senselessly murdered their loved ones they were ignored by Progressives. Why? Because attacking them is a losing proposition. So they attacked those who sided with them, many of whom are Republicans, as bigots. They’ve basically ignored Democrats, including Howard Dean and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, who’ve said the same things. Opponents are not trying to “block” the Mosque, Progressives claim, yet no law to stop it has been proposed. They’ve made appeals to sensitivity, nothing more.
Progressives, who act as sensitivity police for others, attack Republicans for standing with people who have every reason to be sensitive.
The difference between right and left on these issues is the right attempts to change hearts and minds; the left simply accused opponents of bigotry. This makes sense when you realize how unpopular their initiatives have been; if you can’t get people to vote for you, try to discourage them from voting at all. It’s a strategy – if you can’t win someone’s vote, convince them the alternative is a bigot, because who wants to vote for a racist, homophobe or sexist? They’re hoping people will stay home on November 2nd.
Progressives show little concern for the will of the people. They have an agenda, and nothing is going to stand in the way of achieving it. They will lie, they will demonize, they will do anything to achieve it.
In their zeal to advance that agenda they’ve gone farther than they ever have before and thus exposed their true nature. Progressives have accused about 90 percent of the country of bigotry, in one form or another. On every one of the issues listed above polls show the American people are unambiguously not buying the spin and siding with their opponents. That’s a fact progressives will learn the hard way when it comes time for these “bigots” to vote.

Give it another ten years and people will be proud to be a bigot.
Earliest progressives- supporters of 'eugenics' -born out of Charles Darwin's work…. Margaret Sanger ilk code word for move to eliminate blacks- (non aryans in hitler version) manifested as Planned Parenthood; heavily entrenched with eugenics backers – concentrated offices in areas with predominantly black populations with goal to 'control numbers through abortion' -heavily backed by DNC / PROGRESSIVES….. NOT supported by conservatives who are predominantly against abortion…
The 1964 Civil Rights Act would not have passed if it were not for Republicans. Dems were predominantly against it.
It would thus appear that the progressives are a bunch of liars, as they are the bigots, not conservatives.
Vote against Progressives, Democrats, Marxists, Socialists, Obamunists, Communists, Anti-Capitalists and RINOs this November!
The number one thing wrong in Washington is that it is filled with lawyers, making and breaking laws!!! America is sick and tired of the name calling and two faced rhetoric that is the mainstay with politicians! These idiots need to be reminded that THEY work for US!!!
I've been called a Nazi by a lefty. Yep. It's all they've got.
Unfortunately, it's still a powerful tool. Young people are conditioned, via the media and government indoctrination centers, to obsess about a host of thought crimes, otherwise known as "-isms." It is as if, in the mind's eye of your typical American youth, the NO circle with a slash is superimposed over the image of a Glenn Beck or a Sarah Palin, when their teacher or favorite entertain speaks the incantation "______ is a racist," or "_____ is a homophobe." I've had lefty friends speak pridefully of how their children constantly edit the parents' speech for breaches of political correctness.
Frankly, it scares me.
Most people outgrow name calling at least by high school. At first, many of us (being grownups) were stunned by being called names. Fortunately, we have come to recognize name calling as what it always was, a playground tactic used by bullies.
This is the most polarizing administration to date. Their strategy is to create division. Keep people separated & convince them that they have been wronged. Label opposition as enemies , keep many angry , maintain power. Too bad even the Silent Majority has a tipping point. THEY HAVE AWOKEN A SLEEPING GIANT.
This president will live on in infamy as "THE GREAT DIVIDER".
That's right, we're all racist bigot's because the progressives said so. What's there to discuss, other than we're radicals with teabags, dangerous terrorists perhaps? Nothing new here – next topic!
I will be voting the straight "bigot" ticket this November. Progs are welcome to add me to the enemies list!
They can call me names all they want. I'm still going to vote Conservative this election.
Nobody tells me how to vote especially a hypocrite progressive.
Especially these hypocrite progressives; Murkowski, Graham, Snowe, Collins, McCain and Brown.
Conservatives: honoring the 'rule of law' since its inception, even if it is inconvenient to illegal aliens.
Liberals: practicing 'bend or break the law whenever politically expedient', especially when it reels in new voters for them.
This does not define bigotry on the part of Conservatives. It does, however, expose the arrogant hypocrisy and mind-bending of the Left.
Me too. If you're not a bigot, you won't get my vote! ; )
They are bullies, but they are well-trained, coordinated bullies. We will vote them out of office in November, but they will still have control of the schools, the media and entertainment. What are we going to do about that?
"After less than two years of complete Democrat control of government….."
That's a bit of a misnomer. If the Democrats had complete control (SCOTUS isn't theirs — yet), this website wouldn't exist and just about all of us typical bitter God-clinging gun owners would either be dead, or worse – in custody at those FEMA camps that don't exist.
Best tool up – it's coming…….. You know…… "it".
The Progessives simply can't have an honest debate of ideas because the majority of Americans disagree with Progessives, therefore they attack those that disagrees with them.
This is all goods news. In their hubris, liberal progressives have fully exposed themselves, and like spoiled children, once cornered they scream foul, and begin hurling childish invective. We finally have these liberal bastards (R’s & D’s) pinned against the political wall, and it’s time to vanquish them, once and for all, along with all of their cohorts in academia, the media, etc. The louder they scream, is a true indicator of their eventual demise. Keep it up America, we have the statist in fear of their cushy existence, and the beginning of the end, starts on 11/2/10.
My name is Jack and I'm a "bigot."
I'm a Republican and I endorse this Democrat Campaign strategy! ROFL! THANKS FOR THE HELP GUYS! REALLY!
You're right that the CRA wouldn't have passed without Republican support, but the majority of Democrats did support it (the Southern wing of the Democratic party opposed it). The bit below is snipped from Wikipedia.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_Rights_Act_of_...
By party
The original House version:
Democratic Party: 152-96 (61%–39%)
Republican Party: 138-34 (80%–20%)
Cloture in the Senate:
Democratic Party: 44-23 (66%–34%)
Republican Party: 27-6 (82%–18%)
The Senate version:
Democratic Party: 46-21 (69%–31%)
Republican Party: 27-6 (82%–18%)
The Senate version, voted on by the House:
Democratic Party: 153-91 (63%–37%)
Republican Party: 136-35 (80%–20%)
Also, it doesn't make sense to beat up people for decisions made 40+ years ago (as the remigration of blacks to the South proves, the South is a very different place than it once was).

Will those lefty friends of yours speak pridefully when their children report them to the thought police instead of just "editing" them.
Maybe their children will help march them to the train station as well. Bunch of idiots they are.
You are welcome sir. : )
That gives new meaning to being your own worst enemy.
Hi… I am Duuuuh and I am one of "bigoted, racist, teabagger, nazi, right winger, stupid idiots" that will be going to the polls to vote this year also and I am reasonably certain that I will remain in that category of voters in 2012.
No need to start this early. I prefer keeping the English language as diverse and full of invective as possible. We'll have plenty of time for newspeak later if we let the Proglodytes continue to rule.
If progressives call me a bigot, racist or anything similar, it must be a sign of good things for the future.
America: proudly raising educated "bigots" since 1776!
Have these dumb asses ever heard of the book "How to Win Friends and Influence People"? Evidently not.
Maybe Andrew Breitbart needs a new Big- Big 'ot'. -continuous open thread against (but actually an alias of) Big Left.
Interesting article – could not agree more. We are in an outright fist fight at this point in time. The progressives stance and approach is similar to that of Islamic extremists in that you cannot reason or debate with them. Their view is it is my way or the highway. Where will it all end?
Best to all.
for tonight's endless non speech by obama, again, I've saved a Rizzoli and Isles to watch instead….love my DVR!
Same here – there is not enough national focus by conservatives on the voting tricks that Obama, SEIU, Acorn, et al. may have in store for us at key races throughout the country.
Minorities despise the Republican Party. There has to be a good reason why
Power to the bigots! They got my vote!
That's the best comment ever, " I will be voting the "straight" "bigot" ticket this November!"
Andrew and Big Government – please make sure to bring and keep national attention on possible vote rigging by progressives in key races such as Illinois, Wisconsin, Delaware, Nevada, CA, NC, FL. Other than the fact that Biden is generally "goofy", his statements about not losing in the Nov elections may be somewhat telling in that he may be telling the truth via awareness of possible counter-voter-insurgency that could be perpetuated by SEIU, Acorn, Soros, et al.
Yes, they are ill-informed.
Being called a racist, or bigot has become a meaningless term due to progressive mis- and over use.
They are desperate and they will go down.
In every case from the wiki data, Republicans were more for the CRA on a percentage basis than Democrats (80-61, 82-66, 82-69, 80-63) and in every case Democrats were more against it than the Republicans (39-20, 34-18, 31-18, 37-20) so my use of the term "predominantly" is a bit obscure here compared to the view point of raw voting numbers that you point out.
Also, 'beating up on people for decisions made 40+ years ago" is a curious spin on the effort to show that there is a longstanding track record of consistency……a particular consistency that raises the question to this day as to why blacks predominantly vote in line with the DNC, when clearly, the DNC does not behave with the best interest of blacks at heart. Bringing it up to date, then, Obamanomics clearly wrecks the whole country and in so doing drags the lowest economic eschalons down the hardest. Reaganomics "all boats raise up with a rising tide" gave the best opportunity to all economic eschalons, yet once again blacks vote predominantly democrat…??????
Republicans have no free cheese.
by the left's definition, i have been for a long time…
You mean it DOESN'T have anything to do with the Left lying to them for far longer than the Right has tried to set the record straight?
Do you ever hear the left calling Muslims bigots, homophobes, sexist, or intolerant. No, it's only white conservative Christians who are called these things. I wonder why?
Who cares!
I think our culture may have confused the concepts of critical thinking and judgment with the word bigot. I am not a bigot!
I do like watching all the social, economic, racial, sexual preference, gender transposed and intellectual political correct elite spinning in the bowl shouting "Bigotry" on their way to the treatment plant.
It is great to be just a regular American citizen without any other names…
And yet, the NAZIs – being the National Socialist Party- were the ultimate manifestation of evil from the Left.
Clearly, the Lefties calling you a Nazi are the Nazis….and it's all they've got!
Yes, because, among other things, Republicans don't promise to steal the fruits of others' labor on their behalf.
Missy, pretty please pretty please pretty please vote Conservative! LOL!
Too late. I'm already proud to be a "bigot," a "chauvinist" and a "jingoist."
Furthermore, if a candidate has not been called a racist, sexist, homophobe and/or reactionary, I won't vote for him. If he hasn't offended the race pimps, the feminazis, the pervert lobby, and/or the Progressives, he either lacks principles or guts.
In either case, he's not suitable for office.
They actually do more than attack: they sneak around and teach children that we are evil. They understand the long term. We need to understand the long term, too.
Squeaky hilarious! -from Mickey and all his mousey pals.
Minorities despise the Republican Party. There has to be a good reason why
Because hatemongers like you use them as a scapegoat.
I've made this observation before- The Left is accidentally doing this great nation a huge favor by completely erasing any lingering ballistic effect to the words "bigot", "racist", "homophobe", "Nazi", et. al. By trying to tar EVERYBODY with whom they disagree with that brush, they've made epithets that used to pack a punch into punchlines.
That's a bet you can take to the bank!
Because odds are that white conservative Christians won't be strapping themselves with bombs, cutting off heads, or flying airplanes into buildings.
Irony in its most profound incarnation! The Right is still right, what is Left proves itself once again….wrong.
Don't forget: they are busy making more Prog voters in the schools (are they training YOUR children?) and through the media and entertainment. They may go down, but it will only be temporary and they know that. They are willing to wait for the long run.
Yup.
They have been conditioned to look to the Democrats for racial spoils and handouts. After multiple generations, they feel they're "entitled."
Republicans have the nerve to tell 'em to get a job. They despise that…
Simply put, they fear them more than they fear us…..
Left has / is a mental disorder.
Progressive thought they had "finally won" because they were on the right side of history. In reality, they are learning that they have finally "played out" because they are now on the wrong side of history. But they have been defeated not by the 20th Century sins which they project onto their supposed enemies in order to demonize them. Instead, they are losing to a renewed 21st Century vision of America based on its best parts, not its worst history. The more progressives try to fan the flames of hatred against this shared and emerging sense of America, the more they stoke the white hot heat of enquiry which exposes the bankruptcy of progressive ideas.
That's as sweet as Suga on top!
Now we have to take all the toys that can be used for weapons away from these schoolyard bullies. They have shown they are utterly incapable of handling any responsibility.
I'm really losing my sense of humor with these people. You have to WANT to be as stupid as they appear to be.
My two boys are conservative–stay home Mom, and an involved dad steer them to the right.
Please provide some proof moron. You idiots on the left love to throw out accusations without one iota of proof. Typical mindless troll.
Will we run out of rope in the Washington area when it comes time to hold the Elite Ruling Criminal Class accountable for their crimes?
Sic Semper Tyrannis!
Well according to the Wall Street Journal……they seem to be seeing the light.
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703...
There is. The Democrat Party told them to do so!
These seem handy: Racism Vision Specs http://optoons.blogspot.com/2010/08/racism-vision...
You've been battling in the trenches with them for a long time.
I recall that the WW1 doughboys used sawed-off shotguns in that kind of situation, but you wouldn't know it by the 1939 Supreme court decision in United States vs Miller. – yet another manifestation of the massive influence AND stupidity of the Left.
I will take the lead of CBand others on here.
I pray for you liberal_jew343, i think you really need all the help you can get.
Well if you are not voting for Dems, then you will actually be voting anit-bigot…..
As Anne Coulter so astutely put it:
"Like all propagandists, liberals create mythical enemies to justify their own viciousness and advance their agenda."
Oh goody. Yet another self-hating Jew … you know, like George Soros. The guy who sold his fellow Jews out to the Nazis.
maybe it's the self-reliance and responsibility thing they have a problem with?
Frankly, these days if you are not accused of being a bigot you must assume that you are doing something wrong. Additionally, when you get a death threat you should pat yourself on the back for a job well done.
Ten? At the rate we're going, there's going to be a "Proud to be an American Bigot" rally on the Mall this Fall, and millions will be an attendance.
Hollywood is incredibly racist!
Take a look at all those WHITE PEOPLE who won Emmy awards
Truth, truth and more truth. Beating up people for decisions made well over 40+ years ago is the primary progressive weapon. It's the reason they subverted education and gained the upper hand in narrative definition. It's the purpose of PC speak. Fight it with truth. Restoring education back to the states will kill the progrerssive's ability to deceive. De-fund and abolish the Dept of Ed. Return it to the states. Test scores and literacy rates will go up overnight. The progressive movement will die out and postmodern liberalism will shrink to irrelevance..
Boil it all down to soup. Name calling is all they have left. We are very close to a tipping point. I think the libs realize that the tsunami is about to sweep them and their redistribution schemes out to sea. Using your tax dollars to buy votes will not work forever. I see the angry rhetoric as a last thrashing of a dieing progressive beast. This is however, the time to be very careful; this threshing death roll will take several years, and they won't care about collateral damages as they thrash about.
JAUD – Just Another Unemployed Democrat…
The 13th,(abolishing slavery) 14th(reconstruction of the south) and 15th amendments(the right of blacks to vote) also would not have passed if it were not for Republicans as no democrat at all voted for them.
Home school, turn off the TV and boycott Hollywood, choose what your kids read. I know it sounds easier then it is though. You're absolutely right also, they do run all of those institutions.
It's not that they've forgotten, it's that they don't care. And, why should they? That was over 40 years ago. You're just beating a dead horse with this 1960s Democrat bashing. The majority of Dems voted for the Civil Rights Act as well.
Besides, there were legitimate reasons to be opposed to the CRA. It vastly expanded the power of the federal government and destroyed the freedom of association. After the 1960s, Republicans like Goldwater who opposed the CRA gained ascendancy in the GOP. This is why many white, Southern Democrats left the party and joined the GOP. Why do you think the "solid South" went from being solidly Democrat to solidly Republican almost overnight?
You are taking care of YOUR children and that's good. What about all those lost sheep?
"Minorities despise the Republican Party. There has to be a good reason why "
Liberals have worked hard to enslave minorities on the Democrat Plantation.
I think the Progs and the Muslims have a lot in common. Both hide their true intent and both want to force you to believe their way or die.
I think a lot of it has to do with the "suspension of disbelief."
Once someone falls for one liberal lie, that makes it easier to fall for each successive lie.
Once the person has drunk so deeply of the Kool-Aid, it's very hard to accept just how much he has been duped – so he keeps on drinking from the fire hose.
All we can take care of is OUR sheep. My neighbor's sheep….not my property, not my area. We cannot "mind everyone's business" people will either learn to think for themselves or become slaves to folks who prefer to do the thinking for them.
At some point ya gotta let the kid burn his fingers or he never learns not to play with fire.
Hi Jack!
Yea, yea, yea I'm a bigot.
I want to keep my earnings, I'm a bigot.
I want a smaller, cheaper, less intrusive government, I'm a bigot.
I want to save my money for my retirement, I'm a bigot.
I want to support myself and my family, I'm a bigot.
I am proud to be an American, I'm a bigot.
Oh well, I guess I'm a bigot.
This is the same crap 0bama used:
You're bad.
You've sinned.
Atone!
Remember in November.
Maybe it's time to say: Do not use MY TAX MONEY to teach my neighbor's children to hate me. I believe that may be your area.
No worries and ZERO chance of overconfidence with Steele STILL even in this COUNTRY let alone still in charge of the GOP.
I trust Republicans like I trust a car salesman……show me the CARFAX….
then we'll talk, we'll see…..
You are correct sir. They want to be stupid.
Even when I was a Tool-aid drinker, I had my doubts. I guess I was just a sipper.
You have to be one of the dumbest people walking…..
Unfortunately, people paid more attention to Barry Goldwater's opposition to CRA (on small government grounds, not racial grounds) than they did to the actions of the Republican members of the legislature.
Unlike many, I don't blame the Democrats or anyone else for the state of the black community. As with all Americans, the success or failure of blacks in modern America is a result of their individual choices.
Yes, Obama's economic policies aren't working, but the black community was in bad shape long before he took office.
When I am arguing the merits of conservatism with fellow blacks, I tend to focus on its merits more on a micro level than a macro level. Small government and low taxes are best, but It doesn't matter how good the economy is if one doesn't have the level of education employers are looking for or if one is locked up for doing something evil.
Yep, Al Sharpton is one reason. But it is completely beyond your comprehension to understand why that is significant.
President Obama's administration is currently attempting to sell Israel to Hamas. And yet you continue marching down the path. It may be hard to have pity on you for supporting your own demise.
Well, it's hard to call it slavery when it's 100% voluntary. No one is making minorities vote Dem. No one is making minorities take a welfare check.
Agreed. Republican candidates frequently have a knack for snatching defeat out of the jaws of victory. (And let's get rid of the RINOs when we send home the Dem incumbents, too!)
"Don't forget: they are busy making more Prog voters in the schools"
And, their importing future Prog voters by the millions. For every one American voter who "see's the light", there are about 2 or 3 future Dem voters crossing the border.
Typical Progressive argument. This is a classic example of petitio principii, "assuming the initial point" – assuming as true (minorities despise the Republican Party) that which has yet to be proven by argument. This is a logical fallacy, confirming my opinion of most Progressives.
