Yet another reason Republicans are racist, they use the word "cool"

I've got to think at this point that Republicans who breathe are also racists:

Angela Rye, Executive Director of the Congressional Black Caucus, argued that President Obama has struggled during his first term due to racially-motivated opposition from conservatives who dislike having a black president.

"This is probably the toughest presidential term in my lifetime," Rye said during CSPAN's Q&A yesterday. "I think that a lot of what the president has experienced is because he's black. You know, whether it's questioning his intellect or whether or not he's Ivy League. It's always either he's not educated enough or he's too educated; or he's too black or he's not black enough; he's too Christian or not Christian enough. There are all these things where he has to walk this very fine line to even be successful."

She said that "a lot" of conservative opposition is racially-charged, citing the use of the word "cool" in an attack ad launched by Karl Rove's Crossroads GPS superPAC.

"There's an ad, talking about [how] the president is too cool, [asking] is he too cool? And there's this music that reminds me of, you know, some of the blaxploitation films from the 70s playing in the background, him with his sunglasses," Rye said. "And to me it was just very racially-charged. They weren't asking if Bush was too cool, but, yet, people say that that's the number one person they'd love to have a beer with. So, if that's not cool I dont know what is.

She added that "even 'cool,' the term 'cool,' could in some ways be deemed racial [in this instance]."

Might be a quicker press conference if journalists were to ask Ms. Rye what words in the English vocabulary might not be deemed racial in her view.

Jimmy Kimmel, “hard to make fun of because he’s a cool character.”

Washington Post political reporter Chris Cillizza- “This is important, he (Pres. Obama) is cool. “

Chris Rock - Obama Too Cool To Be Joked About.

Obviously they’re racists too.

“Ms. Rye served as the Senior Advisor and Counsel to the House Committee on Homeland Security … with a focus on assisting disenfranchised, small minority owned businesses.”

“Rye,… began her career in legislative advocacy … as the Coordinator of Advocacy and Legislative Affairs at the National Association for Equal Opportunity in Higher Education (NAFEO), the umbrella association for the nation’s 120 historically and predominately black colleges and universities on Capitol Hill and with the Executive Branch.”

“Ms. Rye also served as the Western Region Director for the National Black Law Students Association “

Not sure someone who obviously has made a career out of all things pertaining to race is the best person to lecture anyone about supposed racism directed at Pres. Obama.

Besides, when we white folks talk about Pres. Osama’s “cool” factor we’re obviously referring to his white half. ‘Cause “we ignore the president’s whiteness, but it’s there, it’s there.”

There, no code words.

BS. Conservatives bear a significantly disproportionate amount of bigotry overall. Fact.

Trump’s campaign, including his supporters, have brought that forward.

He IS the face of Ugly America.

And he will probably, if not obviously crash and burn. Hopefully soon; to a crisp.

I don’t expect “you people”  to be intellectually honest and admit that.

There are numerous liberal sins; THAT Trump’s all of them a morally, and as a very serious threat to America.

I wish you well. Peace.
