One of the things that I really dislike about the Left

is how some of them just make outlandish statements based on no facts.

I found this while searching for something else. It's from a couple years old Wonkett:



Twelve candidates showed up for a mayoral debate in Memphis last night, and as you can see in the photo, this included some crazies — can you believe they let a black guy participate?

I mean Memphis had a black mayor for years and years and has one now. It had a black US Congressman, Harold Ford, Jr., for quite a spell before he ran for US Senator. (Its US Congressman now is Jewish.)

It would have taken maybe three minutes to look up the facts but no. The author had to play the race card.....inaccurately.

"Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them." - Karl Popper

 “It’s the presumption that Obama knows how all these industries ought to be operating better than people who have spent their lives in those industries, and a general cockiness going back to before he was president, and the fact that he has no experience whatever in managing anything. Only someone who has never had the responsibility for managing anything could believe he could manage just about everything.” - Thomas Sowell in Reason Magazine
