From a confused Michael Tomasky, Daily Beast:
But he wasn’t a race-baiter until yesterday. That speech wasn’t to the NAACP. It was to Rush Limbaugh. It was to Tea Party Nation. It was to Fox News. Oh, he said some nice things. And sure, let’s give him one point for going there at all. But listen: You don’t go into the NAACP and use the word “Obamacare” [links to Obama – Biden website] and think that you’re not going to hear some boos. It’s a heavily loaded word, and Romney and his people know very well that liberals and the president’s supporters consider it an insult. He and his team had to know those boos were coming, and Romney acknowledged as much a few hours later in an interview with . . . guess which channel (hint: it’s the one whose web site often has to close articles about race to commenters because of the blatant racism). Romney and team obviously concluded that a little shower of boos was perfectly fine because the story “Romney Booed at NAACP” would jazz up their (very white) base.[hyperlink added]
Mr. Tomasky, I suggest that you are off your medications. Cease posting immediately. Go to detox with Jesse Jackson Jr.
I suggest the the reat that the National Association of [Liberal] Color People booed Mitt Romney is not because the used the term Obama Care but rather because the NAA[L]CP thinks that Obama Care will be free.
