Race is the reason. By Eric Smith

History will one day rightly record that in the end there was one reason and one reason alone that the United States of America for the first time in its history defaulted on its national debt and tanked its economy as well as that of the global economy and that reason consists of but one simple, four letter word; race. The Republican Party in general and its core constituents in particular consisting of the Tea Party hates the color of President Barack Obama's dark skin. Period! End of story! That's it! It is racism and racism alone that is responsible for this economic disaster. Nothing more and nothing less.
