It's a game of percentages. It's called "where there is smoke, there is fire!" In other words, if Democrats scream "racism", where racism does not exist, there is a percentage of the population that will believe it an vote Democratic. That card is played here a lot. It gets very tiresome. I think the FAARC card is much more overused and tiresom Falsely Accusing About Race Cards lol It seems to me that in a position of power directing the "whole" of a diversely populated nation the mere mention of race to any extent is uncalled for, divisive..... or playing it |

It would seem to me, not enforcing law, such as Immigration Law, would be illegal.
Who all in DC is guilty of refusing to enforce this example? |

Who all in DC is guilty of refusing to enforce this example? seems maybe a thread on the topic of immigration law would be more relevant for such a point of view this topic is regarding the 'race card', when someone is asked about race and ANSWERS using the topic of race,,,, |

The body of the topic gives examples of lack of enforcing laws. They pull the race card and are exempt from SERVING the people? And, I suppose, demanding him to enforce laws that protect our security is racist. |

The body of the topic gives examples of lack of enforcing laws. They pull the race card and are exempt from SERVING the people? And, I suppose, demanding him to enforce laws that protect our security is racist. wth opening statement,, from the op In an open letter published by the Daily Beast, African-American author Ron Christie rebukes U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder for wrongfully playing the race card. 'pulling a race card' is a ridiculous accusation about someone who answers someone ELSES quesiton about race noone suggested that protecting security was racist He said: "There's a certain racial component to this for some people. I don't think this is the thing that is a main driver, but for some, there's a racial animus." Let's review: He said "I don't think this is the thing that is a main driver," but it is as if when certain whites hear the word race (or a derivative) as the explanation for any part of an event, they go situationally deaf. to recap, there are other reasons people have negative opinions but for SOME (magic word), there is racial animus.... |

What we have with both Eric Holder and Obama are top Federal officials who disobey the law and get away with it because they are black and confront anyone who questions anything they do wrong with being a "racist". No one wants to branded a "racist" so the tactic has worked well.
If they were not black they would have been axed long ago. |

If they were not black they would have been axed long ago. neither holder nor obama have 'confronted' anyone questioning them with being a racist they have, however, been ASKED about issues of race,, which indeed probably wouldnt happen if they were not black. not being black didnt get Bush or Cheney or Reagan axed, so that is also a false perception. |

In this discussion thread, I have cited African-Americans who say that the race card is real and has been played by certain Democrats. So, why shouldn't I believe them.

So, why shouldn't I believe them. the 'race card' is real by its definition of calling someone racist to get away with something,,,,(though we mysteriously dont have a 'body image card' to describe calling someone shallow to get away with something or a 'gender card' to describe calling someone sexist or chauvanist to get away with something, or any number of demographics BESIDES race,,) just as uncle tom is real, by its definition of soeone who betrays their own oppressed group to gain favor with the oppressors,, lots of derogatory references have definitions that describe REAL things and people that is not the issue the OVERUSE and MISAPPLICATION of the term to quiet people from voicing their experiences or concerns is more the issue believe that 'some' people do 'some' of everything, that is a given just like SOME people have racial animous towards blacks, INCLUDING blacks who are elected officials like the Potus or blacks like Holder,,, |

Is it even possible for you to discuss the failures of your heroes without bringing anyone else into it? |

Is it even possible for you to discuss the failures of your heroes without bringing anyone else into it? sigh straw man :The Straw Man fallacy is committed when a person simply ignores a person's actual position and substitutes a distorted, exaggerated or misrepresented version of that position. so, whose position did I misrepresent or exaggerate lets review, the THREAD IS CALLED, REBUKING ERIC HOLDER the opening position is : In an open letter published by the Daily Beast, African-American author Ron Christie rebukes U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder for wrongfully playing the race card. the position EACH OF MY POSTS addresses, and, oddly, the topic that only SOJOURN has bothered to address or state an actual position about and here is the situational deafness again,,, note how OTHERS have introduced other issues and people without rebuke , but simply RESPONDING DIRECTLY to the points THEY bring up makes ME guilty of some straw man,,,,,, very interesting indeed,,,, |

I can't prevent people from trying to keep the Democratic Party on a pedestal, but it is amusing to watch them try.
