[Peace-discuss] Fw: Tom Hayden: "liberal-left radicals"upset w/Obama sell-outs are "blind" racists

[David Johnson]

Mort,

You are ABSOLUTELY Correct !

Tom Hayden is a shameless oppurtunist, whose analysis borders on science fiction.

In particular his shamelessness in his " trying " to play the race card.
That is, if you don't support Obama and his attempts to ; Expand the wars of corporate aggresion, dismantle and privatize Medicare and Social Security, initiate new " free trade " agreements that will cost more American jobs, expand the police state, support corporate health care and attempt to force low income people to buy the inferior overpriced product and persecute whistle blowers, in essence the republican agenda minus abortion rights, then you are a racist. ????

I am no racist and I have a lifetime of actions that proves that is not the case. 
And I have NO problem with exposing Obama for who he really is.

And by the way Tom Hayden, you forgot to mention the 50, 000 U.S. troops still in Iraq, the 100,000 MERCENARIES from Blackwater ( XE ) and other private security mercenary corporations, the 12 permanent U.S. military bases, and oh yes, THE GREEN ZONE, the U.S. so called " embassy " which is a fortress.

And there is much much more to Hayden's delusional rantings based on absolutely NO FACTS.

David Johnson






I would pay money to see Tom Hayden attempt to and play his race card in a  debate with Glen Ford from Black Agenda Report.

  The errors, omissions and distortions in Hayden's piece in general praise of Obama are extraordinary. You've got to be kidding!! 


  Nothing about climate change, nothing about Israel-Palestine, nothing about national security, military and related budget issues, nothing about Iran, nothing about the murder by his administration of innocents, Americans or not.


  I guess I can understand people voting for Obama as the lesser evil, fearful of the religious and radical right, but to praise his administration as truly worthy, in any humanistic sense, of another term is mind boggling. It just shows that the political system is totally corrupt. 


  Plain and simple, Obama is, and should be treated as, a war criminal and betrayer of commonly recognized civil rights. 


  Just thought I'd get this off my chest.

              "Or it could even be a white blindness in perceptions of reality on the left. When African American voters favor Obama 94 percent to zero, and the attacks are coming from the white liberal-left, something needs repair in the foundations of American radicalism."
