Here's what I said and its truthful:

If you liberals cared about racism, you'd be upset about the Obama's own racism - his 20 year relationship with Jeremiah Wright,

A known fact.

his racist feelings toward his mother's race described in his autobiography,

A known fact.

his administration's dismissal of charges against a racist black panther,

A known fact.

the racial favoritism in deciding which auto dealerships were closed:

Decisions on which car dealerships to close
as part of the auto industry bailout -- closures the Obama administration forced on General Motors and Chrysler -- were based in part on race and gender, according to a report by Troubled Asset Relief Program Special Inspector General Neal M. Barofsky."

My charges of racism on the part of Obama and his administration were based on several undeniable facts.

One of them was the fact that racial considerations were used in deciding which dealerships to close.

When the administration is forcing a company to close a certain number or percentage of dealerships and the decisions on which dealerships to close turn out to have been made partly on racial / gender considerations, then that would taint the administration with racial favoritism regardless of whether we can prove the administration commanded that favoritism. You can claim we can't prove the Obama administration intervened in the process to command such favoritism, but since we possess these two facts:

1) racial favoritism was involved in some decisions, and

2) Obama and his administration are known to be tainted by racist feelings and actions,

then we can reasonably surmise the racial favoritism involved in GM's dealership closings was in accord with the wishes of the Obama administration.
