When I see the Obama Family on TV or see President Obama I usually smile. Almost every time. Because I simply cannot believe I lived to see this nice looking brown-skinned family in the White House. It makes me feel clean somehow – as if our country has considered the good of the people and the nation and gone for a youngish, smart and hard-working chief of state . I don’t think I’m alone in this either and I hope not because he needs time and support to unglue the mess we’re in and make things better. After an eight year ordeal with Mr. Bush – you’d think the GOP and its many sects of adherents would get behind him, tell their own people to support him and start to go forward in these difficult times. (Drum roll – enter Steve Martin) But nooooooooooo. And not just noooooooo, Nasty no! Vicious no! Name calling no!
No respect for the man at all, but that also means no respect for the office. Every speech, meeting, movement , gesture is derided and dismissed instantly as a sign of what? Oh, wait. “He’s a communist, he’s a socialist, he’s an unnatural citizen, he wants to steal from the rich and share the wealth with the rest. He thinks Americans – across the board, should have health care. His very name is a traitorous betrayal – Barack Hussein Obama, Jr. Now that’s not right. He must be a Muslim and since he’s named after his black African father – he must have been born there too. He has absolutely no use for the Jews and he hates whites in secret. His wife’s arms are too bare and she is far too fit; she is too tall, how dare she wear nice outfits, and to top it off they have the same kind of dog that Ted Kennedy had. That really is over the top. How dare he, she, they and the dog”.
I have a name for these people; these disruptive, Constitution chewing, greedy, mad tea partying GOP members. I call them White Sheet Republicans. I do not believe a single one even listens to the policies of or direction this president wants to take us. I don’t believe they would even reject of it if it were suggested by a moderate GOP member. They might mumble and growl and not agree with parts – but I suggest the name calling would be minimal. We must keep in mind that, under their protective covers they will do whatever it takes to keep their ball rolling backward. They are extremely sore losers. They believe Sarah, Glenn and Rush are truth-telling, extreme intellectuals. They gloat over lies that are told to discredit the current administration. I would suggest – that beneath their 800 thread count uniforms they make even make faces. This is a group of vicious, nasty people. People I would not break bread with.
But why “White Sheet Republicans“? Are they ashamed of their party? Their platform? Naaaah. It’s because of what slips out far too often. Because they feel the need to preface almost every nasty crack with, “don’t get me wrong, it’s not because he’s black” and because we absolutely know that it is very much because he’s black. And the proffered apologies are sung to the tune of Dixie. Is it because he is not a son of the Stolen, descended from slaves. None of these people’s people even stole his forebears – he has symbolically not sat in the back of the bus. So, as much as he is rightfully embraced by most African-Americans – he really does present a unique and estimable president who speaks to all of us.
Under the sheets, however, this doesn’t even register. “”Bananas, chimpanzees, zoos, thick lips, nappy hair, doesn’t act or sound black “. (I suppose a disappointment to many in Dixie) all creep out from under their hems. Of course it’s because he’s black. God knows what a White Sheet GOP kaukus sounds like.
Somewhere these White Sheet Republicans assumed (probably before the Civil War) they would never have to worry about some Darkie running for president. Both the old and new money, the right schools, the stiffest upper lip, the right address would keep that from ever happening. Damn it, the Founding Fathers owned stolen black folks and there isn’t anything in the Constitution that says a slave can be president. They are chattel. And so even the ones way down South living in the kudzu believe it too. They may have tolerated Affirmative Action, but that tolerance did not include any action that could allow you to be President of the United States. So when you read the vitriol and angry, personalized attacks on Mr. Obama – picture those White Sheet Republicans spinning out of control watching Birth of A Nation, Bamboozled and all taking notes. And be very concerned about all of them because they are definitely out of control.

This is a great article. I thought I came up with the phrase white sheet republicans (with lower case r) but apparently and happily you beat me to it. I am posting this everywhere I can. I like the idea that we start calling them out by their name.
