The Usual (Black Male) Suspect/Redistribution of Wealth

Recently, a volunteer for John McCain filed a police report stating a 6' 4" black man robbed her at an ATM machine in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Ashley Todd, 20-year-old college student from College Station, Texas, said that she was at the machine when she was robbed at knife point. She gave the 'robber' $60 and as he walked off, he noticed she had a McCain/Palin sticker on the back of her vehicle, turned around and hit her in the back of her head. While she was on the ground he kicked and punched her. Finally, the alleged mystery man then turned her over and, with a "dull knife" carved a-get this-backwards "B" in her face (as seen in the photo). She later recanted and admitted the entire ordeal was a hoax.



Obviously, this woman was attempting to discredit the Obama presidential campaign, but it proves, in the spirit of Susan Smith and Charles Stewart, not even a Black Presidential candidate is above a race-based false accusation (by proxy).

The Redistribution of Wealth

I was on my way to work this morning and was listening to KPFK and one of the guests brought up the Obama phrase, Redistribution of Wealth. I admit I've heard this a thousand and one times before since McCain has put so much emphasis on the phrase-but I heard it for the first time this morning. When McCain looks into the eyes of the American people (albeit through the lens of a camera) and says, "Obama wants to redistribute the wealth," what he is ultimately communicating to white Americans is that Obama wants to take wealth from whites and give it to blacks. If Obama doesn't catch this and address it, it might be a serious problem for him come election day!

Sorry to put two separate posts in one, but I felt in some way they were politically related based upon their racial associations.

TPOKW?
