As we speak, on the Tom Sullivan radio show, there is a woman that is saying that Wilson yelled "liar" because he's a racist. Does that count?
She thinks everything is based on color, and that a white man yelling at Obama is racist.....
No - doesn't count. I'm looking for any example here on C-D. Further, Wilson is a conservative from S. Carolina who was one of the few to stand up in support of keeping the Confederate flag flying over the capital building. There's more evidence for his racism than just his idiotic (and wrong) exclamation against the President.
The OP said that just disagreeing with President Obama would earn a label of racism. I've yet to see a single example, let alone the widespread existence of such examples that would justify the lie that the OP made in his/her title.
Spoken like a true Austin liberal and a member of the useless public school teacher's union. Well, let me tell you why you are wrong about academics being a function of money. When I went to Tarrant County Junior College here in Ft. Worth in the mid 80s, I lived in abandoned houses and worked at a cafeteria for quite a while. Also, I didn't have a car. I had a falling out with my parents and I refused assistance from them. I had a 3.64 GPA at TCJC upon graduation with my little degree in electronics technology/radio communications. But, I studied the text on my own in advance of the course, and I spent a lot of time studying where I could find a place. My schedule was completely full, and I took about 16 hours/semester.
I can't believe any report issued by your liberal Austin area ISD because the public schools are such a bad influence and such a bad experience for young people now, that all you teachers want to do is CYA. This is why test standards have been dumbed down and also why the SAT has been dumbed down--to make you teacher clowns look better. So, I don't believe your nonsense ISD reports.
Also, I NEVER said blacks were inferior to whites. I simply said that their God given strengths (generally speaking of course) are not in academics, but certainly there are exceptions. What I'm telling you is the truth.
Your degree in electronics technology/ radio communications........ARE YOU Donald Black? Your "talking points" about blacks are straight out of stormfront, so it would make sense.

Nice little story you gave me there...obviously at some point during that schooling of yours you fell asleep during reading comprehension. My post never mentioned me being affiliated with the teaching system. When we interview prospective summer associates, we are given copies of their transcripts -- I can only guess that is how you deduced I am a teacher. Regardless, let me school you on this -- you don't need to say that Blacks are inferior to whites. Anyone with a quarter of a brain can see the angle you're getting at..and it's a tired, retread angle that has been disproven by my first hand accounts, the fact that we have a Harvard and Princeton educated First Couple who happen to be Black, and test scores. Blacks have as much a "God Given Talent" when it comes to academia as anyone else. We all are born with an aptitude to learn. It is how this aptitude is developed and environmental circumstances that dictate how it progresses. The real problem here is that many minorities buy into your stupid "God Given Talent is Sports" bulls***. Your truth is not fact. You probably measure up so little in life that you need to put another race down. Crawl back in your little hick hole.
PS - I am not from Austin. Williamson County is not known for being liberal. Nice try though.
Lately I have seen more and more black people who don'y agree with Obama and I feel awful for them. Many Obama supporters blame every one who is against Obama's political views, to be a racist.
I don't care anymore to be called a racist since I know I'm not a racist and it says more about the people saying it...it shows they can't win with normal discussions but have to put a label on a person they disagree with..., but for black people now to be called racists aswell, seems to make their cause to fight racism in the previous years, look all done for nothing if the word is misused by stupid brainless people.
You have the wrong strategy. People can call me a racist all day long. If it keeps up, and it will since the left has no argument, the term will have no more meaning. When that happens, they will have truly nothing to attack you with. It's time for all conservatives and libertarians to laugh at this false term until it becomes meaningless. The unfortunate part is, when racism really is at play, everyone will ignore it.

I've heard the phrase uncle tom used to describe black people who disagree with Obama.
I disagree with him and I'm black. Besides, he's BIRACIAL not just black.

As in any group you care to name, some are fools, and extremists. It's just part of the group makeup. Ignore the idiots and you'll be fine.
Some liberals do use the race card waaaay too often. It's idiotic to suggest that anyone who disagrees with Obama is a racist.
But way more often that that nowadays I see the conservatives use the "race card" card. They like to play victims and pretend that everyone is accusing them of racism. Because it's much easier to simply pretend that you're a victim of the race card than to argue real issues.
Typical conversation:
Liberal : "How do you explain that conservatives hardly uttered a peep when George W. Bush and the Republican congress implemented the largest socialist government foray into health care by implementing Medicare Part D but are throwing hissy fits all over the place at Obama's health care reform?"
Conservative: "You're calling me racist, aren't you ??? I am not racist, how dare you call me racist !!"
