Ok then, now that we have established that this entire election is about race and that anyone NOT voting for Obama is obviously an overt or closet racist (regardless of their party affiliation) where does that leave us? Hmmm if Obama loses then Blacks and the Obama supporting non racists of other races and the "no good cracker, redneck, bubbas" are going to start shooting at each other or.... Are Black communtities going to rise up in righteous indignation... what? Since the PROVEN FACT is that not supporting Obama and being white makes you a racist or crossing party lines and being white makes you a racist, well, I guess everyone knows beyond any doubt who the enemy is right? So why wait...sheesh lets just get to it shall we:rolleye s:

Really? I haven't seen that proven, would you provide evidence that it has been proven?

My blatant sarcasm must have gotten lost in the translation somewhere?

As I said before...if he hadn't endorsed Obama, i'm sure he would still be included on that list.

As I said, he's a 92%er, just couldn't help himself.

Gee, so sorry to hear you have to work in a county that's 99% white.
It must be terrible to have the low violent crime rates, safe schools, probably relatively low rates of illegitimacy, and neighborhoods that aren't trashed. What a burden to be in such a place.
You need to spend some time in Detroit, Philly, East St louis, or some of the other lovely places that are mostly minority. I think you will have a better appreciation for where you live.
And saying you are sad to work in a place that is 99% white sounds a bit racist to me, in case anyone is thinking of accusing *me* of being the "r" word. .

Now, it is all McCain. A county where it is 90% Democrat. Even one poor neighborhood where half of them collect government checks where you would think they would just love Obama...nope...all McCain signs. Now tell me this is NOT a race issue.
I agree, it was a race issue there. Unfortunately, for blacks it was just as much a race issue in the other direction.

So you are saying all whites commit less crimes, read better, and don't trash their neighborhoods as much as minorities do? Cuz thats pretty racist.

This guy might just want to live in a diverse town, not one all the same race. He doesn't look down on other racists like you obviously do, going by your view on what their towns are like.

Liberals don't know how to answer a question unless they attack. Watching Obama's campaign and then seeing all the liberal's on this board is proof of that.

If you don't agree with them there is no debate. They just attack.
