This is just so damn ridiculous. No matter what, it seems that anything and everything is racist when it comes to Obama. Like I said long ago and in many posts, Obama played the race card from the very first day.

Guess What An Obama Halloween Costume Is? Yep, RACIST! | NewsBusters.org

Well, last week we discovered that saying Obama is a socialist is racist code. For quite a while we've been told that saying his middle name is racist. Saying he pals around with terrorists is racist. Not voting for him is racist. Wanna know what else is racist? Dressing as Obama for Halloween.... but only if you're a white kid. So says the Columbus Dispatch (Ohio) DispatchPolitics : Dressing as Obama might give wrong idea Columbus Dispatch Politics (http://www.dispatchpolitics.com/live/content/local_news/stories/2008/10/25/copy/faceit.ART_ART_10-25-08_B1_3LBMSJS.html?adsec=politics&sid=101 - broken link) , anyway.

This'll break the hearts of little Obamatons and their sycophantic parents all across the nation for this Halloween season, sadly enough. But, if you don't want to be considered a low-down, four-flushing racist, you little Obamites better not do it. Just say nO, kids. The Dispatch's Kathy Lynn Gray has saved the day, though. She's warned us ahead of time that Dressing like The One is racist as all get out.

ATTENTION!!!
Don't play Obama's and OBAMA's supporters race card.
Don't look at color, race or creed.
Only look at qualifications.

Race is only an issue to those who make it so.

Seems like the only people constantly harping on the issue of race are McCain supporters.

Show us anybody who's saying any of these things. Especially the "Not voting for him is racist." Otherwise you sound kind of hysterical.

It depends. The guy on the SNL skit, who's white and did Obama, no I don't find that racist.
Some idiot though, who would do like an Al Jolson (blackface) and say "Holla at me dawg", in a costume, thinking that is funny, yes, that is racism.
Just depends on the costume. Seems to me McCain supporters who would do this for Halloween, have negative intent.

Newsbusters is a right wing website claiming to expose liberal media bias. Check it out. I wouldn't believe one word from this organization.
