DESPICABLE JOHN H. SUNUNU

                       

                                                  DESPICABLE JOHN H. SUNUNU

One of the hallmark traits of the Republican Party campaign for this 2012 presidential election has been its fervent animus and despicable campaign modus operandi.  Republican operatives are depicting President Obama as a socialist, communist, not a true American, or that his is a Muslim. However, one can argue that in political campaigns, it can get down and dirty. Besides, this type of crud campaign tactics is not new to American politics. But, is President Obama being portrayed differently? The a answer is yes.

Finding the most craven characterization of Republican dirty tactics truly does fail me, but, it is clear to me that President Obama is unfairly being thrashed not because of his politics but because of his perceived non-anglo profile.  During the primaries, outright racist placards were common amongst the Tea Party following. But still, today, coded words or phrases from the mouths of GOP operatives fill conservative radio talk shows as well as on TV.

What is not acceptable to me or to many other reasonable Americans, is the cowardly turn-a-blind-eye from the Republican candidate, Mitt Romney.  In fact, Mitt Romney himself through innuendo, has questioned the President's US citizenship, but denies that was his intention.  However, it appears that he gives consent for others to insight the animus malus from those prone to embrace racist and/or intolerant views.  One such Mitt Romney surrogate is former governor of New Hampshire and President Bush Sr. chief of staff, John Henry Sunnunu.

Republican, John H. Sunnunu, has recently been rabid in his rhetoric when attempting to portray President Barack Obama. But just recently, in reference to General Collin Powell's endorsement of the President, Sunnunu slithered into craven politics by suggesting the endorsement was because of race. 

Mitt Romney and John H. Sununu, your principles can only be described as DESPICABLE AND NOT WELCOMED.
