Obama’s supporters are calling for a beer summit with Obama, me, Rush and Tom Tancredo. Maybe Obama can bring his original BC and all the other docs to this beer summit, maybe while at it, he can explain, why asking for valid vital records and explanation of SS fraud is racist?

Racist is the New N-Word

We need a national discussion about racists. We need a very special episode of Oprah Winfrey about racists and how they should be dealt with in polite conversation. We need Obama to call a beer summit with Orly Taitz, Rush Limbaugh, and Tom Tancredo: he should get them together and let them determine what they want to be called.

We need all this because I am sick and tired of white people doing or saying racist things, and then acting like somebody else went too far when they get called “racist.” Last week, Tom Tancredo argued that the right to vote should be dependent upon literacy tests, a racist law people fought and died trying to change within the living memory of many Americans. He then went on to explain that if the racist law had been in place today, then we wouldn’t have an “illegitimate” president right now. He’s probably right, and I sincerely hope that one day Tancredo builds his time machine and is able to go back to the antebellum America bereft of indoor plumbing and modern medicine. Enjoy your truncated life expectancy Tommy, don’t let the flux capacitor hit you on the way out.

In any event, Rachel Maddow called him a racist, she called his supporters racist, and she took crap for it for a week. Unbelievable. When did calling somebody a racist become worse than actually being a freaking racist?

Maybe calling someone “racist” is the new N-word: only racists can call other racists, racist? If this is the case could somebody please forward me the appropriate country music song to illustrate the point?

Nobody asked me for my opinion on this rule change, but I can see why it is in the best interests of racists to make calling somebody a racist a social taboo. Clever plan. And with only liberals standing in your way, it just might work.
On Maddow’s Monday night show, she asked Harvard Law Professor Charles Ogletree whether he believed that people (birthers, the tea party people) who incessantly question President Obama’s legitimacy were racist. Ogletree said yes — and then went into a litany of policy issues where Democrats and Republicans disagree. In other words, he gave the absolutely wrong answer.

When you merge the racist angle into a general list of political policy disagreements then it sounds like birthers and people of their ilk just don’t like the President, not that they hold any particular racial hatred for him. And since that fits perfectly with what the Tom Tancredos of the world want you to believe anyway — people can act like calling them “racist” is somehow over the line.

Don’t conflate the arguments. There are any number of ways to criticize Obama’s policies — or even his character if you want to go there — that are fair game in American political life.

But this illegitimacy stuff? This need to say that Obama somehow isn’t an American? The desire to limit ballot access to American citizens because they voted for a black guy? These are people who can’t accept that somehow a black man became president on their watch. In their world, Obama cannot be president, not legally. It breaks their carefully constructed — sometimes well hidden — supremacist view, and some people will go to great lengths of self-delusion to keep their world view intact.

Sorry folks, the people who think like this are racist. There’s no other word for it. What do you call people who irrationally fear others and would like to see them excluded from political power?

I call them racist. But now there are some people in this country that tell me that I shouldn’t call them racist. So now, it’s not just that I have to deal with the Tom Tancredos and Rush Bimbos and the “I want MY America back” people of the world, now I’m not even supposed to call them the most appropriate word to describe their particularly mental deformity. Literally, some people will read this post and say that by simply calling racist people racist, that I’m playing the race card and trying inject race into a civilized discussion about policy differences.

For the record, I’m not talking about “policy.” Frankly, I’m not capable of talking to racists about policy. I get too hung up on the “you’re a freaking racist” thing and want to talk about that instead of policy.

But in 2010, I don’t know when you can call a racist a racist. A while ago I wrote a story about a guy who beat up a black woman outside of a bar, because she was black, and his defenders tried to tell me that he wasn’t racist, he was just drunk. I mean, that’s where we are today.

So you know what, fine. FINE. I’m a liberal, which means I fundamentally embrace social change (instead of comforting myself with an illusory tradition that never really existed in the first place). If it offends racists for me to call them racists, then I’ll stop. That’s how goddamn magnanimous I am. I even care about the feelings of idiots who believe their skin tone gives them an evolutionary advantage over me (even though these same people generally don’t believe in evolution). AM I NOT MERCIFUL?

But if I’m going to stop calling them racists, then society needs to give me another word for them. Idiots doesn’t work; it would be offensive to the many kind souls that just happen to be incredibly dumb and uninformed. “Genetically Offensive” has a nice ring to it, but sadly racism is learned behavior — yeah, I know, somebody taught these people to behave this way, shocking — and I wouldn’t want to confuse future generations into thinking that racism can be eugenically selected against. “Behavioral Misanthropes”? Not sure. All racists are psychotic but not all psychos are racist.

See, I can’t come up with a better word or phrase. But then again, liberals have never been particularly good at naming things (if you didn’t see “Republicans use the Snowpacalypse to disparage global warming” coming a mile away, well, you just haven’t been paying attention). You know who is good at naming things? Racists. Seriously. I remember the first time I was called a “chigger” (because I’m part Chinese and all) and I have to admit, I thought it was damn clever.

So, I ask, I implore the racists to get together and come up with a new word for me to call them. Just tell me how to properly label your rank disgustingness, and I will try to oblige.
