This is really one of the most stupid things I have read this election cycle, and that says a lot.  I saw this circulating through liberal feeds and took a few minutes to read it.  Wow, what a bunch of lies and nonsense crammed into one article.

First the title tries to scare and make the reader think of those awful Jim Crow laws, which by the way, were supported by democrats back in those days.  A family group has been putting up billboards in the Cleveland area and since polls are showing Romney making significant gains in Ohio, it’s time to pull the race card.

“We went to that billboard together, as tears welled up in my eyes at the sight of that,” she told MSNBC’s Ed Schultz. “The fact that African-Americans have had to fight so hard to get the right to vote, and then you have groups who are putting billboards up like that. …

“But we’re going to continue to fight. We will not be pushed back by these intimidation efforts. They know disproportionately that this will have an impact on the African-American community. … Some of them do have felonies. But you can vote in the state of Ohio even if you are an ex-offender.”

Just by reading part of that article you would think that these billboards have to be the most racist thing ever invented.  I mean this liberal writer tries to make the connection that these billboards are stopping black Americans from voting!

The first indication this was bull was the fact they didn’t actually post an image of the actual billboards, just a figurative description.

After a few minutes of simple research, here’s one of the “racial” billboards.

Only liberal democrats could think that billboard is racist.  These people have nothing left, their policies are failures, so their last attempt is to pull their played out race card whenever they can.  It’s also no surprise this writer is the wife of democrat Sherrod Brown.  It all makes sense now.
