You know what??? This kind of mentality is what a lot of white independents are tired of....you can't disagree on what kinda beer the President likes without being called racist! This is just plain stupid!

When the left has no answer, they cry race!!! It's pathetic and tired! Over used!


Most folk would rather go back to having an old white guy in the oval office just so they can have an honest disagreement with his policies without being called a klansman!

Yes they have but not to the extent where they have trashed Michele. I thought Laura was an outstanding first lady. But the fact is we still have racists in our country and they would never vote for a black man no matter what. I'm sorry but I see it here

I just said that some wouldn't vote for Obama because he is black and that is the truth. I think you are proving my point here

Many people voted for Obama because he was black. Is that racism? Ah yes, many whites voted for him just because they wanted to vote for the first black man to be president.

Maybe you haven't heard - Obama won in 2008. Your argument is null and void.

If/when Obama loses this November, it will be solely because of abysmal performance for the last four years.

The end of democracy sure didn't happen in 2001 when Oklahoma did something anti-union by voting to pass right to work. That was because the news media paid no attention to the event.

Wow, there such a thing as being a sore loser, but that guy takes it to a whole new level. Walker got elected with promises of balancing the Wisconsin budget and doing exactly what he has done. But apparently, failing to remove a democratically elected governor spells the end of the world ...

You know, you could just be manufacturing in advance another excuse for when Obama loses the next election. It could only be because he is black, not possibly because he has done a terrible job while continually "mis-speaking" to the people he is supposed to represent.

Beck here compares this guy's performance to the man who got to announce the crash and destruction of the Hindenburg. Both talked about the inhumanity of it all. If you can't stand Beck get out of this one now.

Not only is it the end of democracy, but Gov. Walker could have only won because of Anthropological Climate Change!
