When you think you have heard it all in what this government is doing, you get shocked at something else. I do anyway.
It seems the Federally Elected House Democrats have had training in how to make "Race an Issue". They are also to call someone a "Racist" for negative comments about Obama and any thing to do with welfare and food stamps.
I am so completely disgusted with all of this! I would like to know what happened to "bringing people together?"
This is beyond bizarre. This is purposely trying to start Race Wars! They are going to purposely try and incite violence!
That was obvious with that Treyvon matter, or what ever that kids name was. I never paid attention to it at all. I knew it was a division tactic. It was so obvious, especially when Obama said "Would look like his son."
I believe that is when every single person should have seen Obama for what he is.
Now the Democrats are getting formal training on how to make race an issue.
They will seriously work to completely leave this country in tatters? They don't think the country has enough issues as it is? They think they need to ratchet up the race more? They want race riots? They want more people killed over race? Seriously!
This is NOT MY Country! My Country would not purposely tear itself apart and try and divide the people in every way possible! The divisions in this country are all ready deep. The media works hard on keeping the "left and right" divided.
How sorry this government is. They have absolutely no morals at all and that means every one of those people that are in the Federal government.
I am absolutely astounded they are going to try and incite violence between the people and a race war.

House Democrats received training this week on how to address the
issue of race to defend government programs, according to training
materials obtained by The Washington Examiner.
The prepared content of a Tuesday presentation to the House
Democratic Caucus and staff indicates that Democrats will seek to
portray apparently neutral free-market rhetoric as being charged with
racial bias, conscious or unconscious.

In her distributed remarks, Maya Wiley of the Center for Social
Inclusion criticized "conservative messages [that are] racially 'coded'
and had images of people of color that we commonly see used" and
proposed tactics for countering the Republicans' (presumably)
racially-coded rhetoric.
According to Wiley's group's website,
"right-wing rhetoric has dominated debates of racial justice –
undermining efforts to create a more equal society, and tearing apart
the social safety net in the process" for over 25 years. Wiley had been
invited to run the Democrats "through their strategy and how they
message and talk about stuff" pertaining to race and fiscal policy, a
staffer for Rep. Barbara Lee, D-Calif., explained.
As samples of race-coded rhetoric, Wiley reminded the Democrats of
statements by Republican presidential candidates Rick Santorum and Newt
Gingrich. Of Gingrich's famous comment about President Obama, her
distributed remarks note, "Calling a Black man 'the food stamp
president' is not a race-neutral statement, even if Newt Gingrich did
not intend racism."
But the threshold for what constitutes racially charged messaging is
not always so high. One of Santorum's cited comments was: "Give them
more food stamps, give them more Medicaid is the administration's
approach, rather than creating jobs." She also cited this comment from
House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., about raising taxes to
fund government programs: "I've never believed that you go raise taxes
on those that are paying in, taking from them, so that you just hand out
and give them to someone else."
Wiley, who did not respond to the Examiner's inquiries yesterday,
offered this warning to Democrats about talking to "someone [who]
opposes racial justice" but could support Democratic policies: "Don't
make the mistake of telling them they're in the problem. It's emotional
connection, not rational connection that we need."
To that end, Wiley proposed the use of "race explicit" anecdotes to
illustrate problems like the economic crisis. "Explain how each racial
group is affected (recognize the unique pain of each group), but start
with people who are White," she wrote in her distributed remarks. "Then
raise racial disparities." For example, she offered the line:
"Homeownership is the American Dream. It hurts the same to lose your
home if you're White, Asian, Latino or Black."
Wiley urged Democrats to appeal to "white swing voters while
building support among voters of color." She explained that Democratic
outreach to white voters needs to communicate that
"people of color are in pain and it's the same pain I, as a White
person, would or do feel. It's [about] humanizing people of color."
