Geoff Caldwell Wichita Independent Examiner
Treason was talking last week when Rep. Diane Watson (D, CA) spewed forth at her own town hall meeting that to oppose President Obama was racist, that Fidel Castro was to be praised for what he had accomplished in Cuba, and that Che Guevara was a patriot for "kicking out the wealthy" during the revolution....

She is allowed to raise the racism card, no problem. Glenn Beck does it and he starts loosing advertisers.
THIS my friends is why we will continue to have problems with race in this country, IMHO. Until we call racism, racism, regardless of the color of skin of the person espousing it, we will never move past it.
And just because I don't agree with the POTUS, who just happens to be a man of color, DOES NOT make me a racist. It makes me an American Citizen who can not stand the POLICIES of this administration.

How is it that this video did not find "National attention" while this nation is at war?
I know the answer, but it still outrages my sensibilites; the simple concepts of right and wrong.
Maybe if I print a million tee shiets that tell the truth "OBAMA IS A PHUCKIN HONKEY" is that racist enough to grab national attention.

I just wonder how many of these wealthy people would continue to praise Castro if Che took all their money during a Communist revolution for "better healthcare."
Just a thought.

This lady seems to be a quite crazy, and her history is terribly off.
“After Che kicked out the rich people, then they went out into the country to find a leader…an attorney Fidel Castro.” What the f*ck?!
What goes on inside of her head, and how did we get to a point where people like her run this country? Her stupidity, and the applause from that dead audience, and the size of her shoe collection, seems an insurmountable obstacle in my pursuit of life, liberty and happiness.
More self-serving political rhetoric while playing to her audience - info on the meeting cited in the Examiner article is here:
