This on the day of the VP primaries is not the momentum you want out there. This will only hurt him with momentum elsewhere. Who ever is talking should not have.

well if we use your definition, then so is obama. voting against a holiday isn't racist. Dictionary.com.

can you please give an example of something in that statement that offers support for mccain. it wasn't a pro mccain statement, it was an anti obama statement. you've been around long enough to know the difference.

Then why does McRacist now support it and admit he was wrong to oppose it?

For political reasons, that's why. It doesn't change that fact that he's a racist.

sorry, I gave you the wrong link. Vocabulary, Free Word Puzzles and Activities.

what's wrong with this picture.

george washington
christopher columbus
jesus christ
martin luther king

who doesn't belong? columbus doesn't belong, neither does king. washington is questionable. he was right to oppose it. he probably did support it after the fact because of political reasons. are you somehow shocked that a politician did something for political reasons?

jmarquis hit the nail right on the head when he commented on this post -- Progressives make states unlivable. There is a literal 'exodus' of people leaving blue states like the ones mentioned (Michigan included) for Southern, red states.

What do you swooping, screeching liberals think about that? Your good buddy Michael Moore is from one of these states in decline... Hey, I'd be mad too!!! Flint, Michigan..... sigh.......they'll never get it! Taxes and ghettos make people leave!!!

look at the states that have the highest number of threads started on this site. it's nothing but people running away from the states that they ruined.
