Totally normal, I would say.

I guess you really don't see any liberals calling black Republicans tokens. Maybe you need to open your eyes.

AS I SAID...YOU GUYS ONLY TAKE ISSUE WITH THE WORD TOKEN. Do something about that selective reading and comprehension.

What office was Michelle running for when you saw those terrible things? I guess you think she was running for first lady. You do know that Barack said she should be paid for holding down that position.

What does that have to do with disrespect? So its alright to make demeaning comments about someone as long as they do not have a R behind their name. Fine, since using your anology, then Mia is fair game as well as Ann Romney. All, Roy has just given his permission to continue bashing and demeaning Mia and now Ann Romney should be included the same way that Michelle Obama was bashed.

Have you already determined that Mitt Romney is the new President? I didn't know that many people took Michelle to task before her husband was elected. Maybe you don't understand that she said her famous, I am finally proud of my country about this time in 2008

lol im sure that will happen with that CNN poll showing Obama beating Romney 94-0 among blacks. Remember Bush had to get 40% of the Latino vote to barely squeak by John Kerry. Romney won't get anything close to that.
