Wall Street Journal Week in Review on Fox News said that Obama is playing the race card. The next show Beltway Boys also on Fox news said Clinton is playing the race card. Hey Fox – you can’t have it both ways.

Let’s examine what racist statements have allegedly been said. President Clinton said that when a black candidate is running in South Carolina, they will win the state. That is a fact and it was not said in a racist way. It was just said as a fact – which it is. Jesse Jackson won the state twice and Obama this time.

Next statement – Geraldine Ferraro said that if a woman of any color or a white man was running, they would not be enjoying the lead that Obama is enjoying. This is a fact – Obama’s lack of experience would stand in his way if he were either a woman or white male. In my opinion this is a true statement.

If a black male runs for high office their campaigns have to stop saying every statement they dislike, is a racist statement. If we expect Obama to “transcend the race issue” then his campaign needs to stop looking at every statement of criticism as a racist remark.

Next subject is Rev. Wright of Obama’s church who preaches “separation of races”. If any racist statement is truly racist, it is his sermons. Now Obama has been listening to this man for the last 20-25 years. Can we not believe that some of this racist rhetoric had not permeated some of Obama’s thinking? We know that is has his wife’s.

So you decide – Clinton or Obama or both using race card?
