House Democrats how they -- -- session last week and now disturbing new details about that conference are being released now the presentation.
Was designed to teach democratic members of congress and their staffers had to make race an issue in the upcoming elections now the Washington examiner obtained.
Materials in the house briefing the calls on Democrats to take the words -- Republicans out of context and to criticize.
Racially quote coated.
Conservative messages.
Have clearly he's desperate Democrats will do just about anything to keep the focus of this election away from the failed to record the president.
And this is not the first time that they have work to make race an issue.
Here with reaction nationally syndicated radio talk show host of the Salem radio network -- Mike Gallagher and from the new York civil rights coalition Mike Myers right.
Let's go back.
In history this is a pattern this is nothing new.
Democrats we we know that they're dividing the country along class lines that you talk about class warfare.
We know the war on women exist Al Sharpton said there's a war against blacks now by Republicans and.
And Howard Dean says Republicans don't like Latinos let's go back to 1998.
Democratic Party the state is Missouri a radio wet.
When you don't vote.
You let another church exploded.
When you don't -- Allow another frost -- When you don't vote.
You let another assault wound up brother or sister.
When you don't vote and you let the Republicans continue to cut school lunches and band hit start.
Lot has not changed since 1998 has it.
SF 2000 and I remember them don't we all long for the rhetoric -- rate of all Barack Obama only -- Black America don't know why America there's only United States of America.
Not a lot has -- 2008 and 2012.
Fit that Bill Collins said though they played the race card against me -- meeting that Bill Clinton.
Well yeah you but he also plays his grace god how long before on the campaign against Barack Obama and he was our first Black America American -- -- so we have career the first day president -- have a different -- president.
This is just really sold disappointing.
And that we had now dealing -- -- racial division again.
And acting as all America has not changed since the fifties but that's -- -- right back.
To the past.
But the tragedy is and and and no one's better equipped to say this -- that a black man in America like Michael but.
There are authentic race problems in America.
This completely makes.
Real race problems in authentic and there is an artist should ratchet strategy it just becomes an article just it's just a strategy it's a political ploy to say how to -- votes.
And yet for the people who have truly experienced discrimination.
Who have been the the the recipient of of of racial hatred and contempt when they don't count because this is fake it's phony it's a fraudulent have a way.
Look let me go back to 2000 and then we can go through every election that what was in 1998.
This is 2000 this is Al Gore at the NAACP convention from people who are reminiscent of that system from.
In blocking an accurate census because they don't want -- count.
Everyone that they don't think they can count on I wanna count every one I wanna count all the people of this country.
And then it goes screams and I think they don't even wanna -- you in the census and then of course the James Byrd -- Yeah I remember Al Gore speech and he went into black dialect to the right Hillary Clinton -- -- black dial I think they do -- and every campaign cycle.
And not only -- meaning the Democrats who I mean do people cynical politicians.
Who act like Black America rhythm from whites and -- and does a lot of Democrats tell whether Republicans who don't never -- -- play -- recorded -- what it might be one example the parent in the above but I have got an -- but let me put this -- -- -- things -- Republican Democrat but I do see things as being real and unreal and -- and and and discuss this isn't silly that that this is now we're talking about a strategy meeting here -- a coordinated effort athletic and -- -- conservative.
Voices as -- quite a -- but the mystery is do they really believe it or is it is it just a strategy.
To try to -- a little -- the question -- I -- that while -- -- look at look at look at what we have today and -- look at look at Maxine Waters in the -- the talk about the devils in the -- -- the demons the white demons on this is 2012.
This is not not this is not 1998 so you know I don't know look at they have this kind of contempt in their heart.
But if they do what a tragic life they live that they think that our whole -- is -- So is here's the question -- it's so now they have the strategy session and wanna use race to divide the country now now then the surrogate to the president that's Al Sharpton -- -- -- war against blacks and that of course is a phony war against women and then the class warfare that's going on and Howard Dean another surrogate says for Republicans alike Latinos.
I mean how much more how many more divisions can they make here have what -- Go all these admit to come to a whole prison -- that -- -- reelection but.
But consultant -- -- you have to get all these training sessions about race the whole thing about tree effect could not -- is they tell you how the week.
And how -- talk about race and if you disagree -- them Carol you are racist bigot if you think this'll work.
-- can -- I think people are fed up with this I mean you sedated you said in a moment ago -- this is a giant distraction all of these distractions.
They thought you said hope they add up to a hole but what it is is.
We can't run on the record and we can't we can't run on the state of the economy we can't really run on the state of of of of relations right now even -- racial relations for that matter look at the contentious as out of Sanford and all the ugly stuff we've seen so let's let's let's -- all this stuff up and make -- make these contrived controversies and hope the American people don't -- that looks at the million now.
From Bill Maher but good hearted but -- the other way are trainer they invited.
Mile wiley -- following him when I was a kid.
Harm website says that the conservative movement is a racist movement.
That didn't do a conservative movement is using only issue cold words and all that to divide America and the -- -- conservatives elaboration link I asked.
It's rare but that's what you just when you get the whole thing about the Tea Party being racist desperate to get about any criticism of Barack Obama being racist because he's -- first black American and and -- people coming around a black president because he's black cousins that's -- sure this doesn't stick anymore it just asked what I think.
