Racism: The Left's Argument of Last Resort

When a person on the political left digs down into their bag of arguments and the only thing they can come up with is a handful of air, then its time for them to use their tired, old, if-all-else-fails tactic of calling someone a racist or trying to portray them as either moronic or insane.

Totally confounded by the rationale being presented by those participating in the nationwide Tea Parties, one such mindless reactionary on the left, Janeane Garofalo, had no intelligent means of arguing against their concerns except to use the following two reasons.

First, without having even the slightest inclination as to why someone would actually object to unbridled government spending, taxation, and massive social programs, Ms. Garofalo's only conclusion is that the "tea baggers" are all racists (Click to See the Video). This conclusion is only natural because we have a Black President. How perfectly convenient is that! So, if you object to anything that a Black President says or does, you have to be a racist. There just can't be any other reason. Certainly not an intelligent one. Isn't that so fashionably left?

Then, if that's not enough, she goes on to a purely scientific conclusion that people on the right have a problem with their gray matter being too large for their skulls and that causes pressure on the limbic region of their brains. That, in turn, causes all kinds of aberrant thoughts. Wow! Apparently, Ms. Garofalo has now obtained a PhD in behavioral sciences. Maybe we should all call her "doctor" instead of what most of us are really thinking she should be called. Of course, if the limbic region is being so affected, the olfactory nerves would also malfunction and those on the right would probably be unable to "smell a rat" --- as in all of Obama's policies. But, I think their sniffers and their "limbics" are working just fine.

Apparently, Ms. Garofalo is unaware that the government spending of both the political right and the left was being castigated during the Tea Parties. Obama is just the last straw of many straws. Therefore, her racism argument falls flat when the purpose of those Tea Parties is looked at in its totality.

All the time that Garofalo was spewing out this nonsense, the bobble-headed Keith Olbermann could be heard agreeing. In terms of Ms. Garofalo limbic region concerns, I think that both she and Olbermann might do themselves a favor and have their own "regions" checked out. But, I would caution. Instead of finding a brain that was too large for their skulls, my guess is that researchers would find massive and complete atrophy, instead.

It is really sad that those on the left and in our media can't see the real purpose of the Tea Parties. Garofalo and Olbermann are just two examples of how clueless the automaton media is with regard to the debt that is being accumulated by our government. A debt that is so massive that we, as a country, will never be able to repay it. That's not just my opinion; it's a reality.
