They began by calling the Tea Party racists. Why? Apparently because the Tea Party's members had the gall to object to the policies and conduct of America's first black president. Mind you, they never objected to Obama's race. Never even mentioned it. Rather they cited parts of the U.S. Constitution they felt he acted in contradiction with. They pointed out the contradictions in his statements. But to Barak Obama's supporters, it could only be the evil of racism that could lead someone, anyone, to object to anything about the "annointed one."
Then,came the tragic Tucson shooting perpetrated against a Democrat congresswoman last January. Her attacker was an insane nutjob who was obsessed with the ruination of grammer and other demonstrations of how ignorant the general public has become. He wasn't motivated by any political animosities though God knows the media tried their utmost to attribute something - anything - Republican, Tea Party or even conservative talk radio to his motives. But to no avail. Nonetheless, afterward Barak Obama lectured America seemingly nonstop about how “We may not be able to stop all evil in the world, but I know that how we treat one another - that's entirely up to us.” He went on to scold us and lecture us about “returning civility to political discourse” and using words in “ways that heal, not in a way that wounds.”
Really? Seriously? Careful, there, Barry; your actions - as usual - are not consistent with your words.
Now, what he isn’t saying is that he seems to only want to scold certain people in political discourse and further restrict only one side in what they say – his detractors. Oh, he’s quite quick to condemn conservative talk radio, those who criticize his out-of-control spending, his contradicting policies that he purports will “create jobs” all the while he full knows that they do nothing of the sort other than create an ever-larger dependent class.
And what he isn’t saying is that with his supporters, his excuse-makers and those special interests he is so obviously sold out to, well, then… it’s all good, no matter what hateful filth and bile they may spew. For example;
He doesn't condemn Steven Rattner and Chris Matthews of MSNBC, Margaret Carlson w/Bloomberg all whom likened the Tea Party to terrorist suicide bombers. Their phrases like “They’re Strapped With Dynamite Sitting in Middle of Times Square at Rush Hour" all went completely unchallenged by Obama and his administration.

Similarly, Obama's Vice President Joe Biden (who has, since Day 1 of the administration, had chronic
diarrhea of the mouth) and other top Democrats called Tea Party members “terrorists,” “hostage takers” and accuse Tea Party of conducting “jihad” in their recent lobbying efforts to try and contain America's "debt ceiling." Where was Obama with his emphasis on "toning down the rhetoric?" Where was the "annointed one" with admonition to use "words that heal not wound?" The granite faces carved into Mount Rushmore have been more vocal over the past century about life in general than Obama has been about condemning such inflammatory and hurtful rhetoric out of his side's key players the past three years.
And over the Labor Day weekend, Teamster Union boss Jimmy Hoffa calls Tea Partiers “Sonsofbitches”, calls workers “Obama’s army” and encourages everyone to “Let’s take these sons of bitches out.” And where was Obama's righteous indignation then? Was he trying to "tone down" the rhetoric? Was he encouraging, "Can't we all just get along?" Nowhere to be found. Far from commanding that his footsoldier army return "civility to such political discourse," he was stone silent.
“Hostage takers?” “Terrorists?” “Suicide bombers?” Really? Seriously? Your side is raising an "army" to "take out" anyone who criticizes the abuses of the Obama Administration, its policies and you have the unmitigated gall to lecture your detractors and opponents about being civil and soothing? Your silence on and lack of condemnation about such blatant, outrageous and inflammatory - nay, violent - slander by your supporters and excuse makers is, Mr. President, hypocrisy in the first degree with premeditation and malice aforethought.
