Associated Press says any argument against an Obama presidency is "racially tinged"

A moron named Douglass K. Daniel -- who happens to be an AP reporter -- claims it is racist to link Barack Obama to his friend and associate Bill Ayers.

Patterico unloads:

It’s racist to point out the connection between Barack Obama and a white man — who happens to be a terrorist.

It’s racist to point out the similarity between Barack Obama and two white women — who are famous for being celebrities.

It’s racist to point out the connection between Barack Obama and a black man — who happens to have run Fannie Mae.

It’s racist to point out the connection between Barack Obama and a black woman — who happens to be his wife, and who said she wasn’t really proud of America until her husband was nominated.

I’m sick of the race card being played whenever someone criticizes Barack Obama. Making the Ayers connection is hardly a racist ploy, but that’s what we’re being told by the AP today. There is literally no argument you can make against this man that will not be countered by cries of racism.


Most voters are tired of getting lectured by the elite media. Glenn Reynolds has thoughts and more links.
