You as a left winger are using the "N" word now? They are black Americans. Rightwingers as you call them are not opposed to Mexicans who are here legally or are citizens. This isn't about denying votes by people who are citizens of this country. You're just spouting the ole leftwing, Democrat propaganda.
No. That's your cover story.

That's why Judges have had to step in time after time (just yesterday as a matter of fact) and stop racist, white, GOP bigots from taking minority voting rights away.

Here is where you are coming from. Here is your type of voter speaking freely. Minorities can judge for themselves if they want to join your party.

The right has many, many more racists elements than the left. That's just how things are. The KKK is associated with the right. Skinheads are associated with the right. Numerous militant groups are associated with the right. Heck, David Duke is a Republican. Several of the GOP's presidential candidates are openly (or ignorantly) racists.

The same cannot be said of the left. Seriously, can you name even one single racist Democratic politician?
Wrong! Just because the KKK or other racist groups may agree with the other political issues on the right does not mean that the rest of the right adheres to their racist agenda. You need to read a little history about those groups including slavery and see who were the real culprits that started those organizations and who fought to end them.

Reconquistas associate themselves with Latinos and the left also. Does that mean that most Latinos and the Democrats adhere to their agendas? See how that works?

What GOP candidates were openly racists? What is wrong with you people on the left with your constant smears and exaggerations about the "majority" of the right? I am a Republican. I don't have a racist bone in my body. I am not a religeous fanatic either.

Obama IMO is a closet racist. Otherwise why would he have sat in a racist church for 20 years?

Misconceptions of Obama fuel Republican campaign - 13 Oct 08 - YouTube

I don't need a cover story. What I speak is the truth. Why would you use the term racist, "white" GOP bigots. What does race have to do with it? Do you actually think that Republicans who are of another race aren't for Voter ID laws also? Sounds like you are the racist making such a hateful remark about white people. People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones as that makes them hypocrites!

Minorities who are citizens are not going to have their voting rights taken away. Out of the 4 states you mentioned who turned down Voter ID there is about 8 that backed it up. Every state that has implemented Voter ID is offering free ID's to any citizen who doesn't have them. Now just who is being denied the right to vote? Is that all you lefties have is the race card?

FYI, I have no use for Sarah Palin and as for your video some old woman represents the majority of the GOP? See what I mean about the left using the extremists as an example of the entire right? You didn't disappoint. That video was meant to smear the entire right and you know it as obvious by it's title and the other related videos that there were links to.

Problem is, Oldglory, perception. Perception is the problem, and the right wing has a big perception problem. The right does not communicate its ideas across clearly. In other words, the right does not play the word game as well as the left does, and that's something the right really needs to learn. When it comes to anchor babies, there's really not a lot you can do because they are here legally. Illegal immigration is not the problem, per se. The problem is the welfare state that encourages them to come here, that's the real problem. No accountability in the system, and unlimited handouts based on how many kids you have. Frankly, there needs to be a one child per household limit on welfare bennies after a certain date, that's the only way to really fix the problem. You can have one kid that's born eligible for benefits, but every subsequent child will not
What planet have you been living on?!!

Job Creators = Rich People
Class warfare = leave those "job creators" alone!
"The Free Market" = Let Corporations do what they want completely unrestricted
"State's Rights" = I don't want the Federal Government interfering with my ability to discriminate against certain groups
Muslim Socialist Kenyan = He's Black
Welfare Queens = They're Black
The Southern Strategy = bigotry is OK as long as you use 'code' and don't say the "n" word!
Freedom and rights = As long as you live the way we see fit!
America-haters = lib-ruls
"Special rights" = the Gay Agenda!

BTW, it ain't the latinos, liberals and groups like the National Association of Hispanic Journalists "playing the game" with terms like 'illegal alien,' 'illegals' and 'anchor babies' !

Illegal alien is the legal immigration law term for those in our country illegally. As for anchor babies it simply means that the parents have anchored themselves unto our country by giving birth on our soil.

Republicans are hostile to women. They are constantly trying to pass legislation to rewrite reproductive rights. But I'm sure you'll have a way to explain that one away too, just a few radicals, not the whole GOP, right?

What nonsense! Re-write reproductive rights? Many Republicans are anti-abortion that's all. There is nothing radical about that. They are not hostile to women either. Don't you lefties have any shame at all with your constant stereotyping of the right and the lies?

Anti-abortion IS hostile to women. Do you have a vagina? No? Then you have no place deciding what is hostile to women. You are just being ridiculous now. You fit the Republican stereotype to a t.
