Romney being booed by audience at NAACP is proof he is a RAAAAACIST! [Darleen Click]
Just when you think the Left has reached the bottom of delusional race-baiting, now comes the charge that Romney staged the booing at the NAACP in order to appeal to “his racist base.” Politicians don’t write speeches expecting to be booed. They try to word their views in a way to appeal to voters. Mitt Romney didn’t write his speech to appeal to African Americans. He intentionally wrote it to
“Environmental Extremists Exposed as Political Goliaths”
Shocking, I know. […] in 2010 $100,000,000 was donated to the environmental advocacy organization ClimateWorks by a single progressive funding organization: the William & Flora Hewlett Foundation.

Stasi Democrats [Darleen Click]
This has everything to do with naked intimidation Politicians recognize they give up a degree of privacy when they run for office. But Democrats are testing the outer limits of that understanding with a practice that raises questions about when campaign tracking becomes something more like stalking. While most serious campaigns on both sides use campaign trackers — staffers whose job is to record on video every public appearance and
